Exhaust fumes entering air vents. taken in to dealer several times and they cannot fix the problem. my daughter has been sick and we keep explaining to the that fumes have caused her to have pneumonia, sinus issues, dry eyes, sore throat, migraine headaches, sleepy driving and hours after driving, confusion, anxiety, nausea. the dealers mechanic solution is not to use ac or heat and keep windows open. my husband drove it 20 minutes in traffic and got sick when he reach the dealer for 3rd repair request in 2 months. engineer from gm is looking at car may 2018. my daughters health is continuing to improve not driving the cruze. not one person should be sick or die from a car that has a defect that cant be resolved.

Notorious gm issue - transmission cooling lines. third time mine have been replaced and are now leaking again - suspect in colder climates the part is not holding up and especially susceptible to defects. fluid leaks out and causes build up on the line, which could potentially be a fire hazard. i have done research and discovered this is a very common issue with this model cruze. the dealer is asking $400+ to repair what i view is a defective part and design. i have had nothing but problems with this vehicle and this is another problem i am faced to cover the repair bill for a faulty design/product. gm should be held accountable and stand behind their product with a solution to this issue. thank you for your time.
Water pump leaks and causing the engine to overheat. my car has less than 53,000 miles on it. found a service bulletin on the issue but for some reason, chevrolet won't honor it and says my vehicle doesn't qualify for it. bulletin #: 14371a
Radio or touch panel restarted then vehicle began shaking and making vibration noises enigine noises error light began flashing and stability track was on the driver information center about a mile further down the road everything cleared up to include the flashing engine light. now it is on again and doesnt clear up cannot drive it. recently have replaced at my expense the pcv cover and pcv twice, the entire ac delco intake due to massive oil consumpotion the crank seal due to squealing the coil pack and plugs due to a cracked insulator and electrolisis on the contacts. i now have 114,000 miles on it and read there is a recall on the battery grounding system that causes this current system and covers up to 120,000 miles? i searched and it has 0 recalls on this vehicle.

It started with the radio turning off while braking and the radio continued to go off and on i contacted gm who claims it's not an electrical defect? first issue the car can be off keys out of ignition and you can press the on button for the radio and it plays? now it's starting to drive funny and most recently it starts with the remote start every time but when i use the key it doesn't always start? this is a huge issue!
A warning to chevy cruze owner's myself owning one, i noticed the car losing acceleration and at certain times, misfiring from a cylinder, to sum it up, i ran the obd code and got code # p0304 which is engine misfiring. i ended up waiting until the car was cold and removed the t30 screws to access the spark plugs, the coil pack's rubber boots were melted onto my spark plugs, i have take super care of the car and i never would of thought of the coil pack having a serious issue, this is definitely something owner's should be aware of. i hope this can get looked into and a recall would be a helpful option, those coil packs should be made differently or make something more durable than plastic boots. this problem started a few weeks back, it would run fine for almost a half hour and then it started chugging and at traffic lights, it had no power to move, process of elimination was a code for the barometric pressure sensor, so i started there first only because it was cheaper, once i got a confirmed code of cylinder's misfiring that's when we took an in depth look at the spark plugs, i had to replace the coil pack and i did 4 new spark plugs.
I happen to check under my hood to see why i wasn't getting any heat in my car. i then came to realize that there wasn't any coolant, when i was there one 10 days prior at the dealership to get my oil changed and the paper stated that all fluids were checked. i then notified the dealership, and put some coolant in my car so i wouldn't cause any damage to the motor. they check it, claimed there wasn't anything going on with it. and sent me home. i then had a coworker tell me that what i was describing was my water pump. i then notified the dealership again that i was having the same issues, and that i am now smelling coolant in the car and my car act like its ready to stall.. they got me back in and checked what i was complaining about. they found out i was right it was the water pump.. i had found a recall about this whole thing and showed them, and because they checked by vin number my car didn't have this recall but my car should have. it was for the 1.4 engine, not my 1.8. i had my water pump replaced, my thermostat and i am still having issues. this car is only 3 years old and shouldn't have these problems so early. gm needs to do something for all cruze owners cause i am tired of spending over 600 dollars and still having issues.

I have have to have a pcv value cover/intake manifold replaced in my car 3 times. my car is covered under warranty but that warranty will expire. i will have to have is replaced again at some and it seems that no one is asking why this part has to be replaced so frequently in a car that is less than 5 year old. there is a code that appears but it is months after the car starts to surge when you turn it on and feel like it is going to cut out when idling. i live in the city and cannot hesitate to drive when the light turns as it may cause an accident.
Turbo/ super charger for 2014 cruze lt gasoline engine has caused a check engine light there has been multiple reports for the 2014 cruze lt that the super charger cracks and leaks exhaust fumes into the turbo charger which restricts the turbine from functioning properly and normal cost just to buy the part is 800 usd to 1200 usd to purchase excluding install cost. the issue is internal which could only be classified as a manufacturer default and should be addressed as such.
I purchased my car in april 2016 with approx 22,000. on the second day there was a loud noise coming from the front of the hood which it sounded very close towards the engine, exhaust part of the car. i took it in to the dealership and they didn't state what the issue was they just told me they had fixed it. the noise went away. 3 months later i started having issues with my steering wheel locking. i was at a big intersection when i was turning left my steering wheel locked on me and my entire lights including the dashboard went out. i couldn't move my car in the middle of the intersection and luckily there wasn't cars coming towards me. it took about 10-20 seconds to come back on. when it did come back on there was a lot of lights popping up and then there was a "stabili trak" light on. i pulled over to the side because i knew i couldn't drive it anymore. i called my dealership and i took it in that same day. they told me it was a wire that was loose and they had fixed it. well they did not, 3 weeks later the same thing happened to me and they didn't know what was going on then. i took it in again and the problem went away for about 2 months and now i am back to the same thing except something new. not only does my light come up and my steering wheel still locks on me but my car began shaking last night and when i would drive it it would make the same loud noise from the beginning towards the front of the car towards the engine, and it would hesitate on going when i would make a stop. like if it was about to fully turn off so my car got towed to a dealership last night. the issues were not fixed and they are only getting worse.these issues should've been taken care the first time i had gone to the dealership. now it's the 4th time i have gone to a dealership and nothing is being resolved and i pretty sure now there is a big issue with my engine with so little miles!
I have purchased this vehicle used in july of 2015 from the chevrolet schumacher dealership located in north palm beach, florida i currently have 61,939mi. my last oil change was in 12/2016 and is due at 64,000mi. to date i have had numerous issues with this vehicle from installing new spark plugs, brakes that sound like an amtrak train, and now my engine light comes on and my bumper-to-bumper warranty is already expired at like 33,000mi. so now i fall under the power train warranty which covers your engine and transmission. however i am not sure what is causing my engine light to come on, i really don't want to pay $160.00 for a diagnostic test and then have to pay on top of that $800 for an issue with my engine. i shouldn't be having these problems especially since it will mark my 2 year anniversary having this vehicle in july 2017.i am very displeased right now and would like this issue to be investigated and that someone from this government agency contact the dealer located in north palm beach so they can find out what exactly is wrong with my car. something like this should happen to cars that are 5 years old not 1 1/2 years old. *tr

Check engine light has been going on & off for years. dealership has never been able to determine why this happens. recently i have narrowed it down to the light coming on every time i fill up my car with gas & it is a diesel. on a recent trip to tn my car went into safety mode & i spent 6hrs at a dealership. they eventually found nothing & re-set the computer. when i returned home a recall for the very same problem was in my mailbox. now i have received another letter from chevy stating there is another problem

Fuel system failure resulting in catastrophic engine fire. i purchased this vehicle brand new in april 2014. after complaining about engine power loss three months prior, i started smelling a fuel odor the week before thanksgiving, i immediately notified the chevrolet dealer about the odor, the dealer did inform me that a tsb was on gm dealer world in regards to the fuel rails possibly coming loose causing a fuel odor / hesitation. after careful examination of the vehicle there was no visible fuel liquid present on the engine or ground below the vehicle. the vehicle sat parked in the driveway for majority of the day, upon starting the vehicle to transport to the dealer three minutes after the vehicle burst into flames in the engine compartment, using a garden hose while calling 911 the vehicle became fully involved in the engine bay spreading into the passenger compartment. once water contacted the engine bay the fire further spread indicating the fire was chemically based. the local fire department extinguished the vehicle using a foam water mixture. the vehicle was declared a total loss by insurance, i contacted gm customer support only to be stonewalled by the agent. i had over 10000 dollars in payments invested in this vehicle. gm should have stepped up to the plate not the insurance. not a surprise after the ignition switch discretions and deaths. google chevy cruze engine fires this has happened several times before!!!!!!!!!!

My cruze diesel around 30k miles, had an electrical issue which resulted in the dealership replacing the radio and other electrical nodes. around 40k miles the battery and alternator went bad. none of which were covered by the dealership so i had to pay for it myself. since 45k miles, the car has randomly popped up a message saying the engine power is reduced. i travel to large urban areas and this has happened to me in the worst of situations and i am lucky to be alive due to this issue. this now comes on often and is not covered by the chevy dealership i went to. i just purchased this car in 2014. seriously considering the lemon law

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
Water pump had to be replaced due to leak, computer reprogramed to fix steering wheel catch, battery terminal cable replaced for unknown reason. all this on a brand new 2014 cruze. wtf? not to mention initial drive shaft repairs. thought this was an american made car with quality american parts, worst first new car buyer experience ever. make it right gm. *tr
I found a white metallic gunk on driveway. i went to investigate for leakage, after dealer had one week ahead appointment available. i found rust on the welds of the muffler, rust on the hanger rods for the muffler, rust on nuts and bolts throughout the under carriage, rust on metal parts of the drive shaft, rust on the back tire trims, rust on the engine block, rust on the suspension, rust on the shocks, and the list goes on, on the many more parts of the under carriage. not just rust but corrosive rusting, that just didn't start over the last three weeks. dealer had to fail to put car up on rack upon receiving from chevrolet, and failed before handing it. this type of rusting happens only after maybe three years or more at least according to people i've shown the photos to, who know cars. dealership has a gm expert coming in to expect the car. feel very unsafe driving this car. *tr
After purchasing the 2014 cruze on july 29, 2014, i drove it to my residence which was for 6 miles and parked in my driveway. i placed the shift level in the park position and set the emergency brake. my grand daughter, age 16, asked if she could test drive the car. after entering the vehicle, she released the emergency brake and attempted to start it. the car would not start and unknown to her while attempting to start, the vehicle slowly went backwards into the street. the shift lever in the vehicle was stuck in park and would not move and it would not start. i called on star and asked them to run a test on the car to see what was wrong with it. the lady came back with no known problems from their test. i asked and she called a tow truck to return the vehicle to the dealer. the cruze was repaired the next day. the problem was identified with a defective shift cable. the casing around the shift cable at the transmission cracked causing cable not to release leaving transmission in free mode. i was upset and angry with the dealership and gm because the vehicle broke down in the first 6 miles. i then checked for recalls on the vehicle and found gm recall number 14048 and nhtsa recall 14v092, which identified my defect exactly, but did not include my vin in the recall order. i called gm and expressed my concerns they assigned a case number and a very nice lady called and asked what would make me happy. my main concern was the safety of my family and other people who have bought the cruze with a defective shift lever cable. once a part is identified as defective it should no longer be used and it should be replaced on all manufactured vehicles. i was offered a replacement vehicle by the dealership and gm but i declined the offer. *tr

At the end of december 2013 i purchased a 2014 chevy cruze turbo diesel. shortly after buying this vehicle i discovered there as a problem with the excessive torque and the braking system and hair trigger brake release. when releasing the brake this car would leap forward in an unsafe manner. this would happen when releasing the brake slightly. releasing the brake a quarter of an inch or less was sufficient. i am not talking about my foot slipping off the brake pedal. the high rpm's and torque is not a good match with this particular automatic transmission. i am sure a standard transmission would be a better match. after my car jumped out into a major street and almost caused an accident i took my vehicle to my local dealership. the dealership examined my car and came up with the bellowing results: brakes feel normal for vehicle. 4 wheel disc and has electric vacuum pump. no repairs required at this time. idle normal for present time, ecm will rise idle at certain time like cold start compensate for battery draw of glow plugs?. by the way the above incident occurred when the car was normal operating temperature. as a result i immediately traded this vehicle (1500 miles were on the odometer) for a different brand. it would be nice if your engineers could look into this matter to avoid future incidents with other chevy cruz owners. i am very concerned over the safety of this vehicle. thanks *tr
