2014 CHEVROLET CRUZE Complaints

I WAS INVOLVED IN A REAR-END COLLISION PUSHING ME INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE ON 06-06-18. THE HEADLINER AND DRIVERS SEAT BEGAN TO SMOKE, FILLING THE CAR. THE SMOKE WAS WHITE, GREY, AND SMELLED OF SULPHUR. IN ADDITION, THE "SERVICE AIRBAG" LIGHT APPEARED ON THE INFORMATION DISPLAY, THE FLASHERS/HAZARDS, CAME ON AUTOMATICALLY, AND THE CAR WOULD NOT START AND HAD TO BE TOWED. THE VEHICLE WAS SLOWING, ALMOST TO A STOP BEFORE BEING HIT. OHIO HIGHWAY PATROL ACCIDENT # 67-0834-67 5 VEHICLES INVOLVED. UNABLE TO UPLOAD.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 CHEVROLET CRUZE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE SIDE DETECTION SYSTEM WENT COMPLETELY OUT. ALSO, WHEN IT RAINED, WATER ENTERED THE MODULE LOCATED UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE, WHICH CAUSED THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM TO NOT FUNCTION CORRECTLY. SOUTHFIELD CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM (28100 TELEGRAPH RD, SOUTHFIELD, MI 48034, (248) 354-2950) INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE VEHICLE'S WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED. NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE WAS PROVIDED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING OR REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURES. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 38,000.

I WAS DRIVING TO WORK ON THE FREEWAY AND NOTICED THE CAR WAS SWAYING AND WOBBLING ... I HAD GOT 4 BRAND NEW TIRES ABOUT A MONTH AND A HALF AGO SO I DIDN'T THINK IT WAS THAT. THE NEXT DAY, SAME THING DRIVING TO WORK BUT THIS TIME IN ADDITION TO SWAYING, IT WAS JERKING AND LOOSING POWER OR PUNCH AT TIMES WHEN PRESSING ON THE ACCELERATOR. THE FOLLOWING DAY, SAME THING AGAIN, THIS TIME THERE WAS A WARNING LIGHT CHECK STABILITY TRAK, SOMETHING LIKE THAT. I ALSO NOTICED THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON. IT ALSO BEGAN JERKING EVEN MORE AND WHEN I PARKED IT, THE FAN WAS VERY LOUD AND RUNNING EVEN THOUGH THE CAR WAS NOT OVERHEATED. WHEN DRIVING HOME AND STOPPING AT LIGHTS, MY CAR JERKED MORE AND ONLY STOPPED TEMPORARILY WHE N IN PARKED OR IF I PRESSED ON THE GAS. I AM CONCERNED THE RECALLS FOR MY CAR WAS NEVER ADDRESSED, EVEN THOUGH IT IS "SAYING" NO RECALLS FOR MY VIN. WHAT SHOULD I DO? I AM NOT SURE I SHOULD DRIVE IT FAR BASED ON WHAT OTHERS HAVE SAID HAPPENED TO THEM WHEN DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY OR LOOSING CONTROL THRU AN INTERSECTION.

ONE HAS WITNESSED THE GAS SMELL BUT NOTED THEY COULD NOT FIND THE SOURCE. THE OTHER TWO STATED THEY COULD NOT REPLICATE THE FUMES. WE FIRST NOTED ODORS WHEN THE CAR WAS PURCHASED IN 2014 BUT WE DID NOT REALIZE WHAT THEY WERE. THE CONDITION HAS INTENSIFIED RAISING OUR CONCERNS.
