Manual transmission, neutral gear and emergency brake always used when parking the car. noticed that when removing the e-brake on a hill, the car rolls slightly backwards and it seemed as if the e-brake engaged even after it being removed. there was also friction when using the brakes, almost like the brake pads were getting low, however they had just been replaced. took the car into the mechanic and was told the e-brake cable running from the emergency brake to the back tires is malfunctioning to where it fails to retract fully when the emergency brake is disengaged. i have been told that this part is on a 4 week back order through gm because it is a reoccurring problem, and it is not a safety issue according to gm. however, having the emergency brake partially engaged is definitely a major safety issue, since it conflicts with normal braking when driving, causing friction in the brakes. not safe to drive on, and can't even be fixed since it is on back order due to a fault part! mechanic says hes surprised my brakes were not smoking. i drive long distances between states frequently, and is ...

The vehicle has no open recalls, and the recall addressing the brake pressure, (micro switch problem) has been completed. on occasions including this morning, when the vehicle sits overnight, there seems to be a loss of brake pressure, that is you can press the brake pedal all the way down with significant pressure, and the vehicle barely stops. i first noticed it backing out of the driveway, and coming to the first stop sign at the end of our side street. once the vehicle has been running for a short period of time, and after at least one attempted stop, the pressure goes to normal. now that i am aware of the potential of this happening, i noticed even with the car is stationary before backing out, the brake pressure is low. researching the problem it seems like i am not the only one having this experience.
I bought the 2011 chevrolet cruz in 2014, i used the car primarily for work so throughout the first few years i didn't notice anything strange as it remained parked most the time. when i did start driving it as a primary vehicle the first issue i had was the clutch and gear system seemed to be touchy when the car was in park, resorting to me using the emergency brake every time i would park it. at the time it didn't seem to be a big issue as it became a habit. in 2016 shortly after this my oil consumption and turbo failed, and the vehicles exhaust started blowing blue smoke and the car lost all power. as this was a new car i took it to a mechanic and had vehicles turbo replaced. just over a year later in 2018 the vehicle is exhibiting the exact same effects such as removing and replacing the eco,1.4l engine, turbocharger, evacuate and replace air conditioning system, and transfer of the fuel and electrical assemblies and engine mounts. i'm almost certain this car is defective and needs to be recalled.
