My car kept saying "AC off due to high engine heat" even though my car was not reading hot while driving down the road. Then the car would start smoking and blow a hose and liquid would be everywhere. I had a brand new thermostate put in and it still does the same thing. Also a previous recall about how the tire could seprate "tire rod" is still doing it again. I had 3 transaxle seals and a transmission seal, a motor blower for the a.c all replaced within the first year (still under warrenty) of owning this car. The stability track will show up on the screen. But I'm tired of worrying when my car will want to just randomly blow hoses and start smoking and leave me stranded on the side of the road! I bought a cheap car to get me to work and my cruze is sitting!!

While my son was driving the car on the highway the engine started to smoke. He pulled over and turned off the car. He waited 10 mintues and started the car to head back home. When he arrived home liquid was leaking out the car and the car had smoke coming from the engine. At this time the check engine light was on. Gm had sent a recall notice in the mail (n202299080), a couple of days prior. I called them on monday and they told me to take it to a dealer. I called the local chevy dealer and told them about the recall notice. He told me to bring it in. I called a tow truck driver and left the car at the chevy dealer. Ater they had the car for two weeks, they explained that it will be $2000 to fix the vehicle, even though there are currently 4 recalls on the vehicle. I called gm several times to ask how are they going to rectify this, with no call-back. The vehicle is still at the chevy dealership.

I have been having issues with my turbo charge system(s) for a couple years. I have brought my vehicle to be serviced several times and thousands of dollars later I'm still having the same issue. My engine light comes off and on so I had to wait until the he light was on for a diagnosis. I was then told I needed to replace my turbo boost system. I hen asked about the previous repair to my turbo system I was told there was more than one. Then a stabilitrak/ traction pops up periodically. On june 22, my car would not start, I could not remove the key from the ignition. Thinking it was the battery, I got a jump and proceeded on my way. When I was leaving my destination, to had to jump start my car again. The engine light isn't on currently , so I am unable to get another diagnosis. This has been the worse experience of my life. I have been in contact with chevrolet directly over the past couple years and they provided absolutely no resolution. My car isn't gaining speed.. It seems to hesitate often and runs even worse with the AC running. I will never purchase another chevy product nor will I recommend this make. Chevy need to make this right. These cars are proving to be defective and they are proving they could careless. Chevy received a substantial stimulus package, make things right with your company.

This issue has been ongoing since last year. I have been getting messages on my dash with errors such as service traction control/service stabilitrak. The car slows down to 5 speed and it stalls /jerk when driving. This is not safe and I almost got into an accident because of it. This vehicle is not safe. Took my car to the dealership for a diagnosis check and was told nothing showed up but a low battery. I got that fixed and the car is still having the same issue. When driving on the highway/streets/expressways when all of a sudden my car decelerated and I got the message engine power has been reduced/service traction control/service stabilitrak as well as my check engine light came on. Because of this, I was forced to pullover while almost being hit by other vehicles. This was extremely dangerous and scary for me because I have no idea what happened and it could have cost me my life, as well as others. I have taken the vehicle to chevy and firestone auto complete and no one knows why this is happening.

I have taken the car multiple times to get it fixed. As I am driving the car the radio turns off. Then the engine itself turns off. Not only that, as I am driving it the steering wheel stops working and the car completely shuts off. I have spent over 7,000 dollars in repairs and I can no longer afford for repairs. No one seems to know what the problem is. I would really like to open an investigation on this car as my life seems to be threatened and no one can tell me why the car goes on and off while in drive. I almost got in a major highway accident because it turned off while I was driving 60 miles per hour on a busy highway. Please look into this problem and help me get back to a normal car. This has been happening for almost a 2 years now.
