I PURCHASED A LEASE VEHICLE (@500 MILEAGE AT THE TIME). A FEW MONTHS LATER, THE MOTOR SOUNDED LIKE I HAD OVER 100,000 MILES. VERY LOUD. I CHANGED THE OIL AT PERMITTED TIME, TOOK IT IN FOR A MECHANIC TEST DRIVE. MECHANIC SAID IT SEEMED FINE. FEEDBACK FROM PASSENGERS WERE AFFIRMING THAT THERE IS DEFINITELY AN ISSUE. IT SEEMS THE COLDER IT IS, THE HARDER IT RUNS. LIKE YOU NEVER CHANGE YOUR OIL, AND THE MUFFLER HAS A HOLE, OR THE MOTOR RUNS REAL HEAVY, LIKE RPMS STICKING. SOMETIMES ITS MORE FAINT. I TRIED HIGHER GRADE GASOLINE, AS ADVISED, THIS DID NOT HELP. MORE IMPORTANTLY. THE DOORS SHOULD DEFINITELY BE RECALLED. THEY ARE A SAFETY CONCERN. THEY SLAM BACK ON YOU EVEN IF OPENED ALL THE WAY, IF ON AN UNEVEN PAVEMENT OR SLIGHT INCLINE. THERE IS ONLY ONE LATCH AT ALL THE WAY OPEN. THIS HAS BEEN A MAJOR PROBLEM AND SLAMS BACK ON MY CHILDREN AND MYSELF. I AM CONCERNED FOR OTHERS THAT MAY DRIVE THIS VEHICLE. THERE SHOULD BE A SECOND LATCH OR CATCHING MECHANISM TO PREVENT IT SLAMMING ON YOUR LEGS/HEAD. *TR

2014 CHEVROLET CRUZE. CONSUMER WRITES N REGARDS TO VEHICLE SUDDEN ACCELERATION AFTER STEPPING ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED THE BRAKE AND ACCELERATOR PEDAL WERE IN CLOSE PROXIMITY OF EACH OTHER AND HE DISCOVERED THEY COULD BE APPLIED AT THE SAME TIME. *JB

WHILE DRIVING AT 65-70 MPH ON STRAIGHT AND LEVEL HIGHWAY, STEERING WOULD DEVELOP A "STICKY OR DEAD SPOT" ON CENTER WHEN ATTEMPTING TO MAKE A SLIGHT CORRECTION. IT REQUIRED INCREASED EFFORT TO OVERCOME THE STICKING SPOT RESULTING IN OVERSTEER CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO OVER-VEER. VERY DANGEROUS. NHTSA IS AWARE OF THE DEFECT. HARD TO BELIEVE THERE IS NO RECALL.. *TR

WHEN MAKING A SLIGHT CORRECTION ON THE HI-WAY THE STEERING WHEEL FEELS AS IF IT BINDS AND THE AFTER A SHORT TURN OF THE WHEEL IT SUDDENLY TAKES OFF. IT DOES THIS IN EITHER DIRECTION AND YOU END UP WEAVING BACK AND FORTH TRYING TO STAY IN YOUR LANE. THE CAR IS NOW BEGINNING TO DO THIS AT ALL SPEEDS ON THE HI-WAY AND I AM BEGINNING TO FEEL UNSAFE. THERE SEEMS TO BE NO PROBLEM AT SLOW SPEEDS AROUND THE CITY. *TR
