The check stabilitrak light and engine light comes on it loses engine power wont go over 3mph . It has happened while driving down the road at 55mph on a busy hwy. Also my radio screen that controls the backup camera and other settings has went black. I had a mechanic run diagnostics on it and 33 different codes popped up so they told me more than likely it's an ECM issue and it has to be repaired at the dealership
2015 Chevrolet Cruze electrical complaints
Page 2 of 3: complaints 11 to 40 of 50, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Stereo blinks on and off, while driving or putting the windows up or down or even sitting at a stop light. Dash lights below the stereo blink on and off. Stabili track light, ABS light blink on and off. Warning lights on the dash flash. Blinkers turn off intermittently. This needs to be a recall!!!!! I'm not the only having issues like this. We don't spend 1000's of dollars for garbage. I can't afford to keep fixing this thing!
Abs and traction control light came on after being parked ,no codes show up when diagnosed, heard there was recall for that but it doesn't show for my car
My radio connection goes in and out. It stop automatic and restart automatic. I had problems with battery, replaced couple of times.
When turning on the car a number of "idiot" lights would turn on. For example, emergency brake when the emergency brake was not on. Additionally, the digital screen gave me service messages such as "service parking assist", "service theft deterrent" and others. While driving, the radio suddenly shut off and all my dashlights turned off then came back on for a moment then turned off again. My RPM, MPH, gas gauge, and temperature gauges were also not working. The entire digital screen on the dashboard did not give speed, tire pressure, oil pressure, or any other readings.all of these things occurred while parked and driving. I was driving on both city streets and a highway.
Started car and it randomly the service stability trak light came on. Started to drive home and car started sputtering and shaking as if it wanted to cut off. Got home turned the car off and back on the light went off but car still sputters and shakes and hesitates to accelerate.
The vehicle was working fine, I drove it the night prior back home and parked it in my garage like I normally do. When I went to leave the next morning, the car would not start. The engine wouldn't even turn over but the radio and what not would turn on. We tried jumping the car, charging the battery, changing the battery out and nothing worked. We got it towed to the auto shop and they said that they could not fix the vehicle as it's electrical. We live in the desert and the closest dealer is over an hour away in palm springs so now we have to get the vehicle towed there, at our expense, to try and get it looked at
Car surges, engine loses power off, c/s traction control/stabilitrac light comes on dash, door locks activating on their own, we have put new battery new negative cable with new bolt. Car at speed 60- 65 this happen,driving on highway and interstate. I drove car 3 times happened, tech drove car this happened, car been checked at dealer 3 times and still at dealer as of 11/16/2019
I bought the car used. After a few days I heard a ticking under the hood & also when I got to 60 MPH I could feel vibration in the gas pedal & sounded like a bumble bee under the hood. I took it to dealership I bought it from. They said that with the lt1 it offs common noise for the purge solenoid to make the ticking noise that it was normal. The vibration they said was a pebble got under motor mount & was causing vibration. He got the pebble out & readjusted. A week later was doing it again & the ticking noise was alot worse. He finally changed the purge solenoid & it still ticked but not nearly as bad. But he said he couldn't hear the noise at 60 MPH & only a little of the vibration in pedal. I'm really regretting buying this car. If I knew it would have all these issues I could of kept driving my older car with no car payment. He said that chevrolet knew about the purge solenoid issue but haven't fixed it. Car had 87k miles when I bought it & now has 90k. After we bought 1 of the salesmen referred to it as a throw away car. Yeah I just threw away 11k getting it
Check engine light came on 11/05 and that afternoon the car started to idle hard and sputter when stopped. The error codes read for a maf sensor; had that and the engine air filter replaced, and the car still sputtered but the light went out. I purcjased the car in 2015, it had 2300 miles at the time, and would make noticeable engine noise soon after. I took it back but the dealership mechanics said that it was a sensor and not to worry until the check engine light came on; they were talking about the the maf. On 11/12/2019, the light is on again. Also, the stabillitrak light comes on/off.
Engine control module (ECM) keeps going out. Had to replace it twice in 1 year and possibly again soon. The car would start, it would shake a little bit while driving through the city, the AC would stop working as well. If I made frequent stops (running errands) it would eventually not start again. I would have to let it sit for about an hour before I could get it to start again. Dealership identified that it was the ECM but can't figure out why it keeps burning out. So far the warranty has covered this but now it does not. The car had 9000 miles on it when I bought it.
I got my chevy cruze less than 3 years ago. On tuesday my car turn on the engine light. When I was driving my car started shaking,linking and smoking in the middle of the hwy. I went to the leader on thursday because I got scared. Denny told I cannot drive my car like that for my safety. I left my car in the leadership. It's being 4 days without answer. My car have full guaranteed and they offered me a courtesy car. So there me without answers and not car. I went to the leader and denny answer it that they don't know when the car going to be fix, but that if I want I can take the car with me. I just can believe no one care about the customer safety. He told me I couldn't drive my car like that now he doesn't care if I get into an accident with a car that shouldn't be drive. They just want me to apply for a new car. When I don't need a new car. I feel my car is still new. I only have it for 2 years and 10 months less than 75k miles. I need someone to help because this car have all this recalls and just because I'm spanish and female they think I won't do nothing about.
Does'n keep time/when you turn off
Car overheat, the electric fan assembly wires melted and was burning, the fan ceased to work, no warning was given. The vehicle was in motion on city/township streets. The heater core is leaking, so after replacing all other components and a pressurized test, that is the problem. The vehicle is stationary for leak to be seen.
Alarm goes off randomly says the back driver door is open when it's not. Also chimes constantly when trying to put back window down. I've take it to places and they say it's gonna be 300 dollars. I feel I shouldn't have to pay for an issue that happened randomly and is happening to more than just my vehicle.
Chevrolet and pontiac cannot do a diagnostic unless we pay the cost on what ever vehicle being recalled. They told us to schedule a diagnostic test and pay for it and any necessary repairs also. They also said the vehicles warranties has expired. So the defects are the customers fault for purchasing their products. They have us pending for and unknown reason. When they first called they did mention a $500.00 voucher or a new car, but that came to pass also. Someone name .... Regional supervisor told us that, and it was all lies. We still pending....this is a follow up claim # 8-4866033982.
My dashboard lights begin flashing, the radio turns off, the blinker sound stops working, the antilock brake system, service traction system, service stabilitrac and steering vehicle messages flash on the dashboard. I saw this issue reported in a gm bulletin but my dealership said my car isn't affected even though it is that year, make, and model and the same exact things are happening. It happens when I am driving, it started off once or twice a trip, now it is constantly happening so much so I cannot even listen to music. It seems to happen more often when I am in stop/go traffic.
While driving on the interstate around 70mph, the radio and dash lights flickered on and off, and the service stabilitrak light came on the dash. It appears to be the same issue as sb-10057574-8899.

The car just clicks and will not start and maybe 10 mins later it will start. Dealer say eletrial is not covered under warranty and the recall for the negative battery cable is not under my VIN even though all the other 2011 to 2015 chevy cruzes are. Also 3 weeks ago the dash went crazy and stable control light and asb call came on and car was uncontrolable to drive turn off and restarted it and the was fine until now
Vehicle went in for recall (15594: emissions recall ' nox position 1 sensor replacement ' 2014-2015 chevrolet cruze) they replaced the part and 13 months after the part failed again. The engine light went on. The manufacturer should be responsible for once again another faulty part. Vehicle is still at the dealership and they said that it is 1 month over the warranty.
Chevy cruze battery cable recall - sb-10057574-8899 "on certain 2011'2015 model year chevrolet cruze vehicles, the negative battery cable terminal clamp may have an insufficient crimp at the battery negative terminal. Over time, the internal resistance increases and vehicle electrical systems do not receive adequate power. With this condition, the following effects are possible: the radio/HVAC display may turn off and on; the antilock brake system, service traction system, service stabilitrac and steering vehicle messages may come on and off; the turn signal sound may not be heard; 'battery saver active' and 'service steering' may display in the driver information center (dic); and the interior and exterior lighting may flicker. Power steering assist may also be lost, and greater effort may be needed to turn the steering wheel at low speeds or while the vehicle is stopped.
Wipers stop in the middle of the window and driver can't see
The blind spot detection system has experienced 2 failures within 45,000 miles and less than 3 years. It appears the radar sensors located in the rear bumper facia are prone to water penetration and damage. The defect manifests itself with dic reporting an issues with the system. When further symptoms appear they can blank the entire instrument cluster and radio as the can comm bus is likely shorted. There is no way to know speed,fuel and other information. There is no turn signal feedback and constant flickering of fault information from the cluster. The first repair was > $100 dollars as the dealer seemed aware of this issue. The fault can occur at any time during the drive cycle.
I am having the issue of the negative battery cable. Special coverage 14311 was not added to my car to get this repair fixed! While driving the my link constantly reboots, stability track pops up on the dash, HVAC shuts off too
Negative battery cable issue - my radio is cutting in and out, turn signals will not always work, "service stabilitrak" light will intermittently flash.
I bought a 2015 chevrolet cruze on november 13, 2105. I have had numerous electrical issues starting about one month after the purchase. I have been to four dealerships to have it repaired, and it comes back with no issues for about two to four weeks and the nightmares start over again. The newest issue is a safety matter. My car decided to keep my locked inside the car. After many attempts to open the driver door it finally opened. (in my own driveway) last week I was sitting sideways. In the drivers seat, with the driver door open and my feet were on the ground. I was postioned as such for about five mins. All of a sudden I heard the sound of the doors locking, then five swishing noises followed by a double lock sound, in which all four lock buttons went down. (parking lot at work) the next day person was in the front passenger side, with car shut off, and she heard a muted lock sound, then a brief humming noise, then the car made the double locking sound but none of the buttons went down. (at a gas station) all three incidents occured while the keys were in my hand, and ignition off. This is a safety issue, for the passengers of this vehicle. As for all the doors staying locked while inside, I'm so glad it was only 84 degrees, and that I finally was able to get out of the car. I have reopened my case with lemon law as this is one of the many things that occur with this vehicle.
While driving my 2015 chevrolet cruze lt the radio shut off, lights flickered, service engine light came on, and other warning lights temporarily flickered on and off for a few seconds before returning back to normal. This happens multiple times daily often involving the power steering. While turning the vehicle, the radio will shut off, lights will flicker, and power steering will completely shut off causing the steering wheel to jerk while in the turning processes. The car has trouble starting often and sometimes will not start. The battery has been tested and is fine as well as the alternator. Sometimes the radio will shut off and not come back on until the next day even after restarting the vehicle. The largest and most dangerous issue I have had with my vehicle is the steering wheel locking up while turning. The vehicle wouldn't start on one occasion or even attempt to start and the key was locked in the ignition for about 30 minutes before finally the lights all came back on in the car and it started back.
Tl* the contact owns a 2015 chevrolet cruze. While pulling into the driveway, strong fumes emitted inside the vehicle and within the air vents.

The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 18,148.
