The contact owns a 2017 Chevrolet Cruze. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the check engine warning light illuminated on the instrument panel. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, who determined that a faulty High Mount Stop Lamp gasket allowed water to leak into the trunk and fill the rear compartment battery tub, resulting in water damage to the Multifunction Power Supply Converter, Fuel Pump Power Control Module, and Fuse Block. The vehicle was not repaired. After investigating the failure, the contact related the failure to Customer Satisfaction Program 16147, but the vehicle was not included. The manufacturer was notified of the failure but referred the contact to the federal safety agency Hotline for assistance. The failure mileage was 90,000.

Opened trunk today after car was parked in a parking uncovered in a normal rain (not heavy or severe weather) and water was in trunk around the bottom gasket seal and dip where the trunk latch is. Upon further inspection the water has leaked into the bottom of the trunk where the spare tire and battery is and the trunk liner is soaked at the bottom where it comes in contact with the seal when closed. Unsure as to where the leak is happening as nothing else feels wet around the seals.

There is a known issues with the 2016+ chevy cruze models where the top mounted brake light cracks and water leaks into the trunk under the spare tire and into the battery compartment. The water also comes into contact with other electrical components that are between the rear seat and rear quarter panel. This causes a musty/mildew smell in the vehicle and can potentially cause electrical shorts and issues due to the components that are in the affected area. As stated this is a known issue with these cars and a recall was issued for this exact problem but there are many other vins that were affected including mine that were not included in the recall.
