2014 CHEVROLET SPARK Complaints

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE STREET AT 45 MPH. IT WAS AT NIGHT. AS SOON AS I WENT THROUGH THE FIRST GREEN LIGHT, I ACCELERATED (PUSHED ON THE GAS). WHEN I CAME UPON THE SECOND LIGHT, I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE ACCELERATOR TO BRAKE. ALL OF A SUDDEN THE ACCELERATOR WAS NOT WORKING PROPERLY. IT WOULD NOT SLOW DOWN. I TRIED APPLYING THE BRAKES, BUT IT SEEMED AS IF THE CAR WAS OUT OF CONTROL. I COULD NOT STEER RIGHT OR ANYTHING. I HIT TO CURBS AND KNOCKED DOWN TO CITY SIGNS. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT ALONG WITH EMS GOT ME OUT OF THE CAR. THE CAR WAS TOTALED.

2014 CHEVROLET SPARK. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO VEHICLE HEAD REST WERE UNCOMFORTABLE. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED THE DESIGN OF THE HEAD REST, CAUSE HER NECK PAIN. *JB

I WOULD LIKE TO COMPLAIN THAT THERE IS A RECALL ON MY VEHICLE RECAL NUMBER 2014456 (2014 CHEVY SPARK EV) SECONDARY HOOD LATCH CORROSION WHERE THE LATCH CAN RUST AND BREAK AND HOOD CAN OPEN WHILE DRIVING. I HAVE TRIED TO SCHEDULE WITH MY DEALER IN CONROE TX SEVERAL TIMES NO ONE EVER CALLS BACK. WHEN I CALL TO FOLLOW UP THEY DONT CALL BACK. I HAVE SAME ISSUE WITH CHEVY VOLT RECAUL. TWO RECALLS ON VOLT CAR, THE FIRST TIME I TOOK VOLT DEALER DID NOT FIX IT AND NEVER FOLLOWED UP EVEN THOUGH THEY TOLD ME THEY FIXED IT. GM LIKES TO SEND ALL THESE NOTIFICATION BUT THEY NEVER FIX THE ISSUES ON THE RECALL.

THE VEHICLE WILL RANDOMLY REV AND STALL. TOOK VEHICLE IN TO BE REPAIR ON FIVE OCCASIONS DEALERS DRIVE IT FOR MAYBE 30 MILES AND SAY ISSUE CAN NOT BE FOUND.

2014 CHEVY SPARK WITH JUST OVER 4 K MILES WITH SEVERE ACCELERATION PROBLEMS FROM A STOP. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER THE FIRST TIME AND WAS TOLD THAT THE COMPUTER HAD TO LEARN MY DRIVING STYLE THIS WAS WITH ABOUT 2K MILES DRIVEN. THEN ON JUNE 11, 2015 I TOOK IT BACK TO DEALER AGAIN WITH THE SAME COMPLIANT THIS TIME THEY DID A DRIVING TEST AND SCAN THE CVT WAS FOUND TO BE STICKING IN HIGH GEAR AND WOULD NOT SHIFT INTO LOW GEAR. A NEW TRANSMISSION WAS ORDERED AND IT TOOK ABOUT 8 DAYS TO ARRIVE. THEY INSTALLED THE NEW CVT AND WHEN THE TECHNICIAN TRIED TO BACK MY CAR OUT FOR A TEST DRIVE IT WOULD NOT GO INTO REVERSE ANOTHER BAD TRANSMISSION. SO ANOTHER NEW CVT TRANSMISSION WAS ORDERED AND INSTALLED SO FAR THIS ONE IS WORKING, TOTAL TIME FOR THIS REPAIR WAS FROM JUNE 11, 2015 TO JULY 3, 2015.

SIDE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED CAUSING ME TO GO INTO OTHER LANE AND COME TO A STOP. NO COLLISION OR DAMAGES TO SIDE OF CAR TO MAKE THESE DEPLOY. INSURANCE ADJUSTER AND CHEVROLET DEALER DO NOT KNOW WHY THESE DEPLOYED ON BOTH SIDES OF MY CAR.

HELLO, BELOW IS AN EMAIL DETAILING THE ISSUE I SENT TO HERTZ WHICH I RENTED THE CAR FROM HELLO, AS A REOCCURRING HERTZ CUSTOMER, I WANTED TO MAKE HERTZ AWARE OF A SEVERE SAFETY ISSUE WITH A CHEVROLET SPARK THAT I RECENTLY RENTED. WHILE ON I-95 IN CONNECTICUT, THE CAR TURNED OFF COMPLETELY AND I LOST POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES. I WAS ABLE TO SAFELY PULL OVER AND RESTART THE CAR. IF I AS A DRIVER HAD ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE CAR TURNING OFF, THE ONLY LOGICAL EXPLANATION IS THAT MY KNEE TOUCHED THE KEYCHAIN WHICH CAUSED THE KEY IN THE IGNITION TO TURN OFF. SUCH A LIGHT TAP OF MY RIGHT KNEE WHILE I AM DRIVING TO POTENTIALLY BE THE REASON A CAR TURNS OFF IS OF GREAT CONCERN. I WOULD LIKE TO KEEP RENTING WITH HERTZ BUT THIS INCIDENT HAS DAMAGED MY RESPECT FOR HERTZ RENTED VEHICLES. BECAUSE OF THIS INCIDENT, I WOULD APPRECIATE HERTZ INSPECTING THIS VEHICLE AND PROVIDING REIMBURSEMENT AND OTHER RELIEF.
