2013 CHEVROLET CRUZE Complaints

THE STABILITY CONTROL GOES OFF DUE TO A AIR LEAK IN THE AIR VALVE CAUSING LOSE OF STEERING POWER WHICH HAS OCCURED WHILE DRIVING THE STEERING WHEEL BECOMES IMPOSSIBLE TO STEER WHEN THIS HAPPENS

THE PASSENGER LOW BEAM HEADLIGHT HARDLY EVER WORKS AS SOON AS THE CAR IS TURNED ON THE LIGHT IS OUT , IF TAPPED OR BUMPED LIGHT WILL COME BACK ON, SUCH AS WITH YOUR HAND OR WHILE MOVING. I HAVE REPLACED BULB FEW TIMES STILL HAVING TROUBLE.

MESSAGE ON SCREEN COMES UP "A/C OFF DUE TO HIGH ENGINE TEMP" A FEW MINUTES AFTER DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. A/C SHUTS OFF TEMP GOES DOWN AND EVERYTHING IS FINE THEN YOU CAN TURN THE AIR BACK ON AND IT RUNS FINE. CAN NOT DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM WHEN THE PROBLEM DOESN'T LAST LONG ENOUGH FOR ANYONE TO SEE.

CAR KEPT SMELLING LIKE BURNING OIL. THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT ALWAYS SMELLED LIKE BURNING OIL. AT ONE POINT, RYAN ALMOST FELL ASLEEP AT THE WHEEL AFTER A DRIVE TO WORK IN THE WINTER BECAUSE OF THE INTERIOR AIR QUALITY. WE BROUGHT IT IN AND THE TURBO CHARGER OIL COOLER PIPES WERE LEAKING INCLUDING THE FEED AND THE RETURN.

GOING ONTO THE FREEWAY LOST MOST OF POWER, WHITE SMOKE PLUME THROUGH EXHAUST, ENGINE WAS RUNNING POORLY. MECHANIC HAD TO REPLACE MY ENGINE AT 134,040 MILES.

THE CAR WAS IN MOTION ON A HIGHWAY. WHEN ACCELERATING THE CAR SPUTTERED A BIT THEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STARTED TO BLINK AND TRACTION LIGHT CAME ON. ALSO MADE A CERTAIN WHINING NOISE. A MESSAGE POPPED UP STATING STABILITRAK SERVICE.

I WAS JUST DRIVING ALONG UNDER NORMAL DRIVING WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN MY RPMS WENT ALL THE WAY UP AND THE CAR WASN'T GOING ANYWHERE BUT COSTING TO A STOP ALONG WITH A LOUD BANGING SOUND. I WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 28MPH ON A STREET

I HAVE BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH MY TURBO CHARGE SYSTEM(S) FOR A COUPLE YEARS. I HAVE BROUGHT MY VEHICLE TO BE SERVICED SEVERAL TIMES AND THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS LATER I'M STILL HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. MY ENGINE LIGHT COMES OFF AND ON SO I HAD TO WAIT UNTIL THE HE LIGHT WAS ON FOR A DIAGNOSIS. I WAS THEN TOLD I NEEDED TO REPLACE MY TURBO BOOST SYSTEM. I HEN ASKED ABOUT THE PREVIOUS REPAIR TO MY TURBO SYSTEM I WAS TOLD THERE WAS MORE THAN ONE. THEN A STABILITRAK/ TRACTION POPS UP PERIODICALLY. ON JUNE 22, MY CAR WOULD NOT START, I COULD NOT REMOVE THE KEY FROM THE IGNITION. THINKING IT WAS THE BATTERY, I GOT A JUMP AND PROCEEDED ON MY WAY. WHEN I WAS LEAVING MY DESTINATION, TO HAD TO JUMP START MY CAR AGAIN. THE ENGINE LIGHT ISN'T ON CURRENTLY , SO I AM UNABLE TO GET ANOTHER DIAGNOSIS. THIS HAS BEEN THE WORSE EXPERIENCE OF MY LIFE. I HAVE BEEN IN CONTACT WITH CHEVROLET DIRECTLY OVER THE PAST COUPLE YEARS AND THEY PROVIDED ABSOLUTELY NO RESOLUTION. MY CAR ISN'T GAINING SPEED.. IT SEEMS TO HESITATE OFTEN AND RUNS EVEN WORSE WITH THE AC RUNNING. I WILL NEVER PURCHASE ANOTHER CHEVY PRODUCT NOR WILL I RECOMMEND THIS MAKE. CHEVY NEED TO MAKE THIS RIGHT. THESE CARS ARE PROVING TO BE DEFECTIVE AND THEY ARE PROVING THEY COULD CARELESS. CHEVY RECEIVED A SUBSTANTIAL STIMULUS PACKAGE, MAKE THINGS RIGHT WITH YOUR COMPANY. *TR

THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN ONGOING SINCE LAST YEAR. I HAVE BEEN GETTING MESSAGES ON MY DASH WITH ERRORS SUCH AS SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL/SERVICE STABILITRAK. THE CAR SLOWS DOWN TO 5 SPEED AND IT STALLS /JERK WHEN DRIVING. THIS IS NOT SAFE AND I ALMOST GOT INTO AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE OF IT. THIS VEHICLE IS NOT SAFE. TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR A DIAGNOSIS CHECK AND WAS TOLD NOTHING SHOWED UP BUT A LOW BATTERY. I GOT THAT FIXED AND THE CAR IS STILL HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. WHEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY/STREETS/EXPRESSWAYS WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN MY CAR DECELERATED AND I GOT THE MESSAGE ENGINE POWER HAS BEEN REDUCED/SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL/SERVICE STABILITRAK AS WELL AS MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. BECAUSE OF THIS, I WAS FORCED TO PULLOVER WHILE ALMOST BEING HIT BY OTHER VEHICLES. THIS WAS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND SCARY FOR ME BECAUSE I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT HAPPENED AND IT COULD HAVE COST ME MY LIFE, AS WELL AS OTHERS. I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO CHEVY AND FIRESTONE AUTO COMPLETE AND NO ONE KNOWS WHY THIS IS HAPPENING. *TR

BRAKE PROBLEM CAN ALWAYS STOP THE CAR MAY REQUIRE INCREASED PEDAL EFFORT. THE PROBLEM COME ON GO. IF I HAVE AN EMERGENCY IT WILL NOT STOP. THERE IS A RECALL ON THIS. *TR
