2014 CHEVROLET CRUZE Complaints

AT AROUND 4,800 MI MY FRONT PASSENGER WINDOW WAS ROLLED DOWN AND UPON TRYING TO ROLL UP, IT FAILED TO DO SO. ABOUT 1 WEEK LATER, THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE WINDOW DID THE EXACT SAME THING. I WAS ABLE TO PULL BOTH WINDOWS UP IN THE CLOSED POSITION. DURING COMMON FREEWAY DRIVE THE REGULAR SHAKING CAUSES THE WINDOWS TO OPEN SLIGHTLY, THIS IS NOT THE ISSUE. HOWEVER, DURING ONE SPECIFIC DRIVE, THE DRIVER WINDOW SLIPPED OUT OF THE REAR WEATHERSTRIPPING AND THE TOP REAR CORNER OF THE WINDOW WAS PROTRUDING UP AND OUT. THE CONCERN OF MY DRIVERS' WINDOW GLASS FLYING OUT WAS SCARY AND I HAD TO HOLD IT IN PLACE WITH ONE HAND AND DRIVE WITH THE OTHER UNTIL IT WAS SAFE TO PULL OVER AND TRY TO PLACE IT BACK IN. IF I WERE TO LEAVE THE WINDOWS DOWN, IT SIGNIFICANTLY RAISES THE POSSIBLY OF THEFT. I FEEL THIS IS A GOOD CONCERN TO REPORT AS I WAS AFRAID FOR MY SAFETY AND THE SAFETY OF OTHERS ON THE ROAD.

WHILE DRIVING TRYING TO ACCELERATE CARS HESITATES THAN DRIVES NORMALLY DEALER CLAIMS CAR IS FINE WAS CHECK BY THEIR MECHANIC BEFORE BEING SOLD. WHEN DRIVING ON FREEWAY TO CHANGE LANES CAR HESITATES WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE. FEELS LIKE POWER IS DELAYED.

I BELIEVE THAT THERE IS AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE BUT THE THE SPECIFIC AREA IS UNKNOWN. ANOTHER INCIDENT OCCURRED THAT CAUSED THE CAR NOT TO START ON 7/172017

MY WIFE HAD COME BACK FROM A DR. APPT. APPROX. 52 MILES AWAY FROM HER PLACE OF EMPLOYMENT ON MONDAY 5/15/17 AT APPROX. 1:15PM. AS SHE APPROACHED HER EMPLOYMENT, SHE MADE A LEFT TURN ON A SIDE STREET THAT SEPARATES TWO AUTO DEALERSHIPS, WHERE EMPLOYEES PARK ON THE SIDE OF THE STREET. SHE NOTICED AN EMPTY PARKING SPOT ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE STREET AND DECIDED TO MAKE A U-TURN TO PARK THERE. AS SHE SLOWED DOWN TO ATTEMPT THE U-TURN, SHE MADE A SLIGHT LEFT TO BEGIN THE U-TURN AND AT THAT MOMENT ALL THE VEHICLE'S WARNING LIGHTS ON THE DASH LIT UP, THE MESSAGE CENTER SCREEN LOCATED AT THE CENTER OF THE CLUSTER ON THE DASH READ "STABILINK SYSTEM DISABLED" AND HAD LOST ALL POWER STEERING. UPON LOSING STEERING, THE STEERING WHEEL SNAPPED BACK AND BROKE HER WRIST IN TWO PLACES. THE LOSS OF STEERING RESULTED IN OUR VEHICLE SLIGHTLY IMPACTING THE VEHICLE PARKED TO HER IMMEDIATE RIGHT.

APPROX. 9 HOURS LATER, I HAD GONE BACK TO THE VEHICLE TO ATTEMPT TO DRIVE IT TO A LOCAL BODY SHOP TO STORE IT AND UPON STARTING THE VEHICLE, ALL SYSTEMS WERE RUNNING AGAIN, NO WARNING LIGHTS WERE PRESENT ON THE DASH AND THE POWER STEERING HAD BEEN RESTORED.
