A/c off due to high engine temp warning on the dash. tried resetting ecu, didn't work. no check engine light on. changed both coolant sensors and still broken. replaced old broken thermostat with a new factory sensor, and 4 months later it's already broken.
Chevy cruze 2013 ltz turbo, i have the paperwork stating it is turbo. i took it to a dealerships because check engine light came on. i was told it was fine. they cleared everything. i have been told different things whether it has turbo or not. the turbo was supposedly checked several times since i bought it. the mechanic at dealership said it did not have turbo. i asked the head mechanic to drive the car with me in it. he did, the head mechanic convinced me it had turbo and it was working fine, i said it doesn't act like it to me, he said this is all its got and that's it, the car is fine. the head mechanic said it was fine, i said something is not right, he convinced everything was and to push the clear button when it would be and it would be fine. this happened between 2014 and 2018 this has happened over the years. i was told to basically touch the clear button. codes started to pop up; it started with the window. i was told to hit clear button when this happens, so i did. then check engine codes pop up on dash saying: role window down and back up, check transmission, key remote not detected, start with remote start, check air bags, it has done this off and on for a several years, off and on . now this week it got really bad to the point the car just shuts off, then it will not start, until i touch the clear button or i have to unhook the battery otherwise the dash will not turn off and i can't start it. i took it to have codes checked and mass flow sensor , then it said vapor canister purge valve then map sensor, i replaced all, the car still acts the same. codes still appear on dash. start the car it seems ok, then you drive it and the engine just shuts off and codes start to appear again. should this be checked into. ...
Transmission failure at 70,000 miles.
My car is a danger the engine power slows down when driving causing another to hit in the back power steering light displays, stabilize tract and engine power, i have already had one hit and run accident.i took car to chevrolet dealership harbison rd columbia sc they just half repair it someone may die if car continue to power down.
My check engine keeps going on and off and when comes on give out power little by little till my engine reduce power comes up and gives out and almost crashed on freeway serval times
Could push the gas pedal to the floor and it won't accelerate. pressing the gas with normal pressure makes the rpm's increase very quickly and the car either won't accelerate or will accelerate very slowly. the engine light was on previously for two days and then shut off and hasn't come back on yet. i think it is the turbo. unknown cause.
For some reason when i drive my car it starts shaking sometimes it happens when i start driving or when i brake i tried to find the problem and it looks that it is the drive shaft. i though that it is something that only happened to me but i found out that there are more cars involved in that but my chevy cruze 2013 looks like it is not not one of those. what can i do about it ?
Takata recall a few months after i purchased this vehicle the check engine light came on then it goes off the last few months it's back on and makes a noise when the air conditioning system is on.
Vehicle shuts off while driving losing complete power and steering! so dangerous and deadly! taking the car in today, car also riding rough and misfiring. all maintenance done every 3,000 miles. this car has had one problem after another and this last one could have killed my teenager daughter! it stopped on her 5 times on the freeway!
Tl* the contact owns a 2013 chevrolet cruze. while the contact's wife was driving 30 mph, the vehicle hesitated, jerked, and failed to move before spontaneously accelerating. there were no warning indicators illuminated. the vehicle was taken to bob bell nissan (7900 eastern ave, baltimore, md 21224, (410) 288-2500) to be diagnosed, but the failure could not be duplicated. the manufacturer was contacted and did not assist. the failure mileage was 18,000.
Engine light came on, air leak came from valve cover. apparently the cover and manifold went bad. there needs to be a recall and permanent fix on this immediately. too many of these cars are being sold, too much money is being made not to have a fix for this. my car is 16,000 miles out of warranty. ridiculous!
Car is having turbo problems. nothing wrong with the car, but it shows a turbo underboost defect. says online it is common amongst chevy cruzes
Turned onto a major highway and a code came on and then it wouldn't accelerate, made some weird clanking noise, the noise comes and goes but is loud, rpms were high. car has been well maintained oil changes every 3000 miles. took to independent mechanic and problem was unidentified. calling dealership in the morning.
Takata recall very hard shifting and clunking nose when shifting
My check engine light turned on, so i took it in and they said the valve cover needed to be replace. the cost was $280.00 to replace it. when starting the car there is a loud clanking noise. this only happens when starting the car. we thought replacing the valve cover would correct this issue, but it did not. the car still has a really loud clanking noise. once the car is moving it drives fine. (manual shift car) however our fears are that if something breaks while driving down the freeway, that it could cause engine loss or worse freeze in the middle of cars driving 75mph and cause a sever accident. can y'all please check into this and let me know if there has been any recalls with this issue?
My 2013 chevy cruze that had 80000 miles on it head gaskets are blown out along with the bolts and cooling system. upon reviewing other complaints and speaking to others this seems to be a problem. the car had regular tune-ups and oil changes along with a engine flush. i have attached a copy of the estimate to repair the gaskets. the shop also informed me that if i wanted the coolant system fixed and it is on recall that they would fix around the coolant system ...send the car to the dealership to repair the recall and send the car back to them to finish repairs. i have only had the car 4 years and when i purchased it the car only had 10000 miles and for this to happen this early in a car is a problem.
Car looses speed can't give it gas has no pull! once you take it out of gear and put back in drive, works fine. lights flicker on and off, on radio. bought car in february with 49.000 miles on it drove to store came back out of store car was completely dead! made no sound, checked battery everything, 5 min later started rite up. this car does not feel safe to me, i wish i could return it.
Hello, this sunday my 2013 chevy cruze while driving an alert came up saying that engine power reduced and other notices. the result was that the car lost power. thankfully i was on a side street at the time at a slow speed. most of my driving is on the highway and if this would have occurred at highway speeds which did occur to some people who posted on chevy forums it could be fatal. gm will not acknowledge this issue and would not cover the cost to repair it. there are many discussions about this issue at this google search https://www.google.com/search?q=chevy+cruze+throttle+body+reduced+power&oq=chevy+cruze+throttle+body&aqs=chrome.1.69i57j69i59j0l4.5323j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=utf-8 i feel like gm should take care of this and a recall should be issued so that this does not cause serious accidents for others.

In park at random times the service traction control and service stabilitrak light will come on. the car is real sluggish at take of, i can not leave a stop sign with a car any less than 40-50 car links away without fear of getting hit. when the speed finally starts to pick up it shifts rough at times. the car also feels like it is jumping when in drive and holding the brake.
I have taken my car in with the check engine light. they said it was due to a oil cap. i called and they informed me that they could not find anything wrong. since then the engine light has been on and off and now the traction control light is on and the engine revs very high.
At first, i started the car one day and the engine light came up and as i tried to put the transmission in d the "d" light started flashing (not steady as normal) and there was some noise from the transmission. i put it back to "p" and turned the car off and started it again. then it acted normally. later on, it happened suddenly while i was driving (the transmission snapped and the "d" light started flashing). i took it to the dealer for diagnosis, and they found that the transmission control module (tcm) was defective. i searched online and found that there were many recalls on the tcm for 2012 & 2013 chevy cruze, but mine was not identified in those recalls as per the dealer. i was under the impression that gm will investigate the case and feed me back, but i found out today that they do not do investigations unless it comes from the nhtsa.
Wow this is the bad car ever i have a lot first air flow sensor bad pvc valve 2 times new
At random car will idle up and down and rpms will jump. this happens when just cranked and after driven and sitting still in idle. also, at random when trying to crank the car it seems to get stuck and i will have to return the ignition in order to get the motor to fully turn over.
While accelerating on city streets, the transmission went into the fourth gear and hesitated to go any faster. i then stopped accelerating but then the transmission slammed into the third gear and revved high until i pushed on the brakes and the transmission slammed back into the fourth gear. this isn't the first occurrence. i haven't taken the vehicle to the dealership for servicing.
My transmission started slipping while driving to work on the highway at 70 mph. the car gave me 2 warnings, one for the traction control needing serviced and one for the transmission needing serviced. i drove the car to my dealer explained the problem to the dealer and stated that i didn't think i was going to make it to them. the dealership service center let the car sit for a few hours and then checked for codes and mysteriously could not find any problem. the problem always starts when the vehicle is going up hill, the transmission lights starts blinking, the car starts sputtering and i lose speed very unsafe in traffic! when sitting at a stop light with the brake pedal mashed to the floor the car lunges forward. i have searched online for similar problems and have found that many cruze owners are having the same problem and gm refuses to help there does seem to be an associated recall but it doesn't state the transmission problem in the discription. (nhtsa 16v502000) power train:automatic transmission:control module (tcm, pcm). the service centers can't fix the problem because the car is not showing any codes when they check and i'm always sent home.
Stopped on hill car in drive after a few seconds starts rolling backwards.

2013 chevrolet cruze has surge. it feels significantly worse in her vehicle at 40,000 miles. ..updated 02/12/15*bf
I bought my 2013 cruze in june 2014, with around 40k miles on it. in september the car began having issues. at first it was just that the radio and all dash lights would shut off. then i had multiple service lights that would flash randomly. those included stabilitrak, traction control, power steering and security system. at one point, while driving in a parking lot, my power steering completely locked up. my car eventually stopped starting. i was stranded at school and had to call a tow truck. when this happened, my key actually got stuck in the ignition. i was able to jump the car after several minutes of trying, but it would not keep power. i had it towed to the dealership, but they were not able to find anything wrong with it (no codes even came up on the computer) and it ran just fine for them. i drove the car home, and the next day had the same problem. this time after about 30 minutes of trying to get the car to start, it did, so i drove it straight to a chevy shop. again, they couldn't find any codes, but said they replaced some wiring and cleared the computer. i didn't have anymore problems until last week, when it all started happening again. i've had the power steering lock up on me in the middle of an intersection! the weird thing is, when my car doesn't want to start, all i have to do is use the little electrical knob that moves the drivers side seat back and forth, and everything fires up. gm needs to figure this out because it's bound to kill someone! *tr

My vehicle was not filed in the recall list but has the same issue as a drive train recall (13v452000). my vehicle when shifting gears completely lost power and no longer goes into 5th or 6th gear. i have taken it to the dealership like gm asked me but unfortunately they informed me that my clutch was not covered. to me this is a big safety issues that could have resulted in my family and i being seriously injured if i was in a different situation. i would like to see my vehicle be fixed like all the other vehicles that was recalled with this same issues, i don't see why if the issues isn't different why my vehicle should be excluded. *js
Vehicle surges when car is in idle position (breaking). this vehicle was not in an accident, however during a surge the car bumper went over a parking block that had a tie rod sticking up. when i backed up the car, it pulled the drivers side bumper away from the front end. also, an engine light goes on when the window defroster is on, stating that the ac is being shut off (ac is not on, the heater is) and shuts down the hvac system. *tr
