VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED IN 2011 AND HAS 135,000 MILES ON IT. BODY AND INTERIOR IS IN GREAT CONDITION AND I TAKE CARE OF THE ENGINE AND POWERTRAIN FOR ITS SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE. I HAVE THE DOCUMENTS TO PROVE MY STATEMENT. THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN NOTHING BUT A HEADACHE. I JUST WANTED TO NOTIFY YOU AND WARN ANY OTHER PERSON THAT MAY BE THINKING OF BUYING A CRUZE TO NOT PURCHASE. I WAS HOPING ALSO THAT I MAY HAVE A RECOURSE UNDER THE LEMON LAW TO RECOVER SOME OR ALL OF THE LOSSES INVESTED IN TRYING TO KEEP THE VEHICLE IN RUNNING CONDITION. THE TRANSMISSION IS CURRENTLY MALFUNCTIONING AND THE TURBO WAS ALSO RECENTLY MALFUNCTIONING. CURRENTLY THIS VEHICLE IS IN A PARKING LOT COLLECTING DUST. THE COST TO REPAIR OR REPLACE IS MORE THAN THE VALUE OF THE VEHICLE. CAN YOU ADVISE OR HELP WITH A SOLUTION? IT WOULD BE SAD TO SEE HONEST CONSUMERS INVEST THEIR HARD EARNED CASH ON A PRODUCT THAT WILL LAST THEM FOR LESS THEN A DECADE.

ON MY WAY TO THE BEACH I APPROACHED A STOP SIGN NEAR THE ENTRANCE OF A BUSY HIGHWAY. AFTER STOPPING I PROCEEDED TO PRESS THE GAS PEDAL AND ALL I GOT WAS ENGINE REVVING THE CAR DIDN'T MOVE AT ALL. I TRIED SHIFTING THE GEAR FROM PARK BACK TO DRIVE AND I TRIED AGAIN. THE CAR STILL DIDN'T MOVE AND I GOT REVVING AGAIN. SOMETHING WAS WRONG WITH THE TRANSMISSION CAUSING THE CAR TO SLIP INTO NEUTRAL WHILE BEING IN DRIVE. I RETURNED THE VEHICLE TO PARK AND TURNED IT OFF, AFTER WAITING A FEW SECONDS I STARTED THE CAR UP AGAIN PUT IT IN DRIVE AND I ACCELERATED FORWARD, I PULLED INTO A NEARBY PARKING LOT AND EASED MY WAY INTO A SPACE, BEFORE MAKING IT ALL THE WAY INTO THE SPACE I LOST GEAR AGAIN. I PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE AND BACKED OUT OF THE SPACE. PUT IN BACK IN DRIVE AND AGAIN DIDN'T GO FORWARD, JUST REVVING. I ULTIMATELY PARKED THE CAR AND HAD IT TOWED TO A MECHANIC. 2011 CHEVROLET CRUZE ARE MOST COMMONLY KNOWN TO HAVE TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS BUT THERE IS NO OPEN RECAL. MY CRUZE COULD HAVE SLIPPED INTO NEUTRAL WHILE I WAS ON THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY. THERE WAS NO WARNING IT WAS GONNA FAIL. NO LIGHT INDICATIONS, NO STRANGE SOUNDS COMING FROM THE CAR. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO A NEARBY CHEVROLET DEALER TO SEE IF THEY COULD TELL ME WHAT HAPPENED. THE TRANSMISSION GUY DROVE IT AROUND THE LOT AND THEN TOLD ME HIS BEST EDUCATED GUESS ON WHAT HAPPENED IS THAT THE 3,5,R PLATE BROKEDOWN AND CLOGGED THE FILTER. THEY TOLD ME I NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION. I CONTACTED CHEVROLET AND GM TO SEE IF THEY WOULD HELP AT ALL AND THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT. I HAD THE CAR TOWED SOMEWHERE ELSE TO GET THE TRANSMISSION REBUILT FOR CHEAPER. I TIRED TO ENCOURAGE THE GM REPRESENTATIVE I SPOKE TO, TO LOOK INTO OPENING A RECAL ON THE TRANSMISSIONS OF 2011 CHEVROLET CRUZE BEING THAT IS THE MOST COMMON COMPLAINT. HOWEVER THEY COULD NOT PROVIDE ANY INFORMATION ON IF THEY WOULD OPEN A RECAL.

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.

MY 2011 CHEVY CRUZE IS NOT SHIFTING PROPERLY WHILE ACCELERATING. IT IS MOST NOTICEABLE WHILE ACCELERATING RAPIDLY ON AN ENTRANCE RAMP, IT JERKS AND DOES NOT ACCELERATE PROPERLY. IT MAKES YOU WANDER IF IT IS GOING TO STOP WORKING. I HAVE ALSO HAD A LAG IN REGULAR SHIFTING. THESE PROBLEMS WERE ADDRESSED BY MY LOCAL CHEVY THREE TIMES WHILE UNDER WARRANTY AND IT RESULTED IN REBUILDING MY TRANSMISSION. I AM NOW OUT OF WARRANTY AND HAVING THE EXACT SAME ISSUES THAT IT TOOK THEM THREE TIMES TO FIX. I HAVE HAD THIS CAR AT THE DEALER TO OFTEN SINCE PURCHASING IT. I HAVE ALSO HAD THE AIR CONDITIONER COMPRESSOR AND FAN REPLACED AND ALL RECALLS PERFORMED. I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER CHEVY CRUZE. I DO HAVE RECORDS OF MY REPAIRS.

The car overheated out of nowhere. Oil busted out of the compartment it’s supposed to be held in and got all over my mechanical parts inside the vehicle. My car caught on fire from the bottom where the engine and transmission are. The car started rattling and giving me warnings to get out of the vehicle because the vehicle was unsafe. It gave me the warning that the engine is idle, Engine locked up, and also an coolant issue. The car didn’t have issues before this. I literally had to jump out of the car with my family. The warning light for the engine and coolant came on. There hasn’t been In problems prior to this other than changing a sensor. The insurance was notified and don’t have a solution. We’re trying to figure out what to do because it’s not driveable. Going to contact Chevy dealer or GM as well.

MY TRUNK IS COMING OPEN ON ITS OWN. SOMETIMES WHEN I UNLOCK MY CAR THE TRUNK WILL POP OPEN OTHER TIMES IT WILL JUST POP OPEN WHEN I'M DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. IT IS NOT MY KEY FOB BECAUSE I HAVE USED DIFFERENT KEY FOBS THAT I HAVE AND THE PROBLEM IS STILL HAPPENING. THIS IS DANGEROUS WHEN DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY. THIS CAN HAPPEN WHEN IT'S SITTING IN THE DRIVEWAY. OVERNIGHT I WAKE UP IN THE MORNING AND THE TRUNK IS OPEN OR WHEN I'M DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. THIS STARTED HAPPENING JUST THIS MONTH AND HAS BEEN HAPPENING SPORADICALLY BUT AT LEAST ONCE A DAY IF NOT MORE. I'VE DONE SOME RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET AND I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE THIS IS HAPPENING TO WITH THEIR CHEVY CRUZE. I THINK IT RECALL IS AN ORDER BEFORE A WRECK DOES HAPPEN IF IT HASN'T ALREADY.

ISSUE 1: CAR JERKS WHILE AT LOW SPEEDS AND SOMETIMES ACTS LIKE IT'S IN NEUTRAL, EVEN THOUGH MY GEAR IS IN DRIVE. ISSUE 2: WHEN I PUT MY CAR INTO REVERSE, THEN TO DRIVE, THE CAR ACTS LIKE IT'S IN NEUTRAL, INSTEAD OF DRIVE. THE ENGINE REVS, BUT DOESN'T MOVE, UNLESS I HAPPEN TO BE ON A HILL, AT WHICH POINT IT WILL ROLL, WITHOUT ME WANITING IT TO. IN ORDER TO GO INTO DRIVE I HAVE TO PUT ON THE BRAKE AND PUT IT INTO PARK, LET GO OF THE BRAKE, PUT THE BRAKE BACK ON THEN PUT THE GEAR BACK IN DRIVE FOR IT TO MOVE FORWARD. ISSUE 3: CAR RUNS IN GEAR 1 AND 2, BUT WILL NOT SHIFT TO ANOTHER GEAR. WHEN YOU'RE DRIVING, THE ENGINE JUST REVS, BUT YOU CAN'T GO PAST A VERY LOW SPEED. I BOUGHT THIS CAR BRAND NEW IN 2011, IT HAS 80,000 MILES. I DON'T EXPECT IT TO BE A PERFECT CAR, BUT FOR THE TRANSMISSION TO ALREADY BE OUT, ISN'T RIGHT. IT'S DANGEROUS. PLEASE DO THE RIGHT THING AND INVESTIGATE THIS CAR'S TRANSMISSION. EVERYONE IS HAVING THIS SAME ISSUE WITH THIS PARTICULAR CAR. PLEASE. I'M BEGGING.

BOTH OF MY KEYS HAVE BROKEN OFF. THANKFULLY, THEY'VE NEVER BEEN STUCK IN MY IGNITION, BUT THEY HAVE BOTH SNAPPED OFF. I WAS PARKED IN THE DRIVEWAY (I HAD JUST ARRIVED) AND WENT TO TURN MY IGNITION OFF AND THE KEY SNAPPED AT THE BASE, BY WHERE THE PIN HOLDS IT. THE KEY ITSELF IS OK, BUT COMPLETELY SEPARATED FROM THE BASE OR HOUSING. PLEASE NOTE THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED, I THOUGHT MY 11 YEAR OLD BROKE THE FIRST ONE SO I HAVE BEEN USING THE SPARE. THE BREAK LOOKS EXACTLY THE SAME THIS TIME AS THE FIRST TIME, I JUST MUST HAVE DROPPED THE ACTUAL KEY PART OUT WITHOUT NOTICING.
