- Thousand Oaks, CA, USA

The contact owns a 2012 Chevrolet Cruze. The contact stated that the check engine warning light illuminated and there was a strong oil odor coming from the vehicle. In addition, there was excessive smoke coming from the engine. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who stated that there was an oil leak, but the failure was undetermined. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.

- East Orange, NJ, USA

The contact owns a 2012 Chevrolet Cruze. After filling the vehicle with fuel, the contact started the vehicle and it made a sputtering noise and began to shake. The contact stated that the engine warning indicator was consistently illuminated. The contact turned the key to the off position; however, the engine did not power off. It took several attempts to power the engine off. The contact released the accelerator pedal and kept the vehicle parked for approximately five minutes until the shaking and sputtering ceased. The failure recurred on several occasions when fueling the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that an unknown sensor was faulty and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 106,000.

Twice I have walked back to my car & found that the engine has remained on. After parking, I press the engine on/off button, exit the car, lock all doors with the fob and walk away. This time, I parked in a very large, crowded public parking lot. I was at least 6 blocks away from the car for 2 hours. Thankfully, this has occurred when the car is outside, not in my garage. In recent light of people succumbing to carbon monoxide poisoning due to this very situation occurring with cars in closed garages, I would expect a voluntary or forced recall to remedy this GM admitted design decision.

When the car first started messing up it was minor things I noticed: The in dash lighter not working, trunk latch doesn't work except by key, turn signals would glitch, can't use usb & audio cord at same time without it cutting off both completely. Then a couple weeks later I noticed my car had an unusual delay in increasing speed it was as if I had to push it to the floor just to get to 30 mph. Now the most recent event occurred on 9/17/15 which is what's prompting me to file this complaint (keep in mind I've only owned the vehicle for 8 months, purchased at 54K miles currently has 70.9K) I drove to my house approx 30 min hwy from where I was I got into my car the next morning it didn't start at all. My bf checked the battery voltage & it was too dead to test, with a jumper box my car took approx10 min to even turn over, during the time of me inside the car attempting to start it my steering column locked up, lights in dash, radio system, headlights everything flashing on and off, key was stuck inside ignition, a foul smell & clicking noise is coming from engine, & couldn't lock doors once I turned car off immediately. This all occurred I'd say within a matter of 30 seconds after the car to turned over. Was so freaked out I didn't try to start again for 2-3 min and once I did it started right up. Within 72 hrs I have now seen the stabilitrac service alert, theft alert system needs serviced, along w/ air bags, & battery light flickers on & off. The clicking under my hood has continued, the rotten egg smell from engine comes & goes, dash lights go dim then go back to regular. Drove to O'reillys, they were able to tell me I now have a bad alternator as well. Recall 14801 was issued for reprogram engine control module, getting serviced this week at dealership but could this possibly cause all this?? especially considering I don't want to be responsible for repairs.

The acceleration takes a lot to go from 0-30 mph and when it does the car feels as though it will stall. Vehicle is serviced regularly. This seems to be worse when the defrost or air is on. The gas pedal needs to be almost to the floor for it to even pick up and when it does accelerate it jumps between the gears and the RPM reeves up and the vehicle is slow to move.the engine fan also runs for 30 secs, shuts off, 1-2 mins later runs for 30 secs and shuts off. Have had engine temp checked and no issues with the car overheating but unknown why the fan runs on high all the time and it takes away the power to the car.

I have noticed that the acceleration takes alot to go from 0-30 mph and when it does the car feels as though it will stall. There is a half tank of gas, and no indication it should be doing this. Oil is changed regularly. This has happened a few times before this incident of today. The gas pedal needs to be almost to the floor for it to even pick up and when it does accelerate it jumps between the gears and the RPM goes beyond 4-5 to get it to even 20mph. I did have an incident when the car stalled as I was in reverse. That happened at around 30-35K miles. I decided to google the acceleration issue and see I am not the only one. My car itself has had 3 recalls fixed.

I was driving home from work on the highway doing about 60-65 miles per hour. The car was driving fine but it suddenly started to loose speed and power. Then the check engine light came on and the car stalled. I was able to make it to the shoulder safely but traffic was flying by me at varying speeds from 50-75 mph. The vehicle stalled within 30 seconds of me noticing the loss of power and the gauges did not show any warning lights of heating or empty gas tank. I allowed the car to cool down for about 10 minutes after popping the hood open and then I attempted to start it. No luck. The starter was cranking but the engine would not turn. The engine tried to turn on as if I kept the key turned in the on position. I allowed the car to cool down for another 40 minutes (with the hood open) as it was a hot day, 87F, I attempted again and the same starting noise came, but the car never turned back on. I had to call a tow truck and spend $130 to take it home. I'm glad that I was alone and that it was during the day. Imagine if this happened at night in a winter icy road when I have my family with me!!! wow... this situation scared me and now I'm not sure if I should use the car for anymore for road trips with the family, its dangerous. The interior also smells like antifreeze fluid when I turn on the heat in winter time. That is another issue!!!. I hope to hear form GM. Thank you

I went to my fathers house and he noticed the smell of antifreeze strongly. He looked under my hood and on the ground and its leaking everywhere. I had bought this car not even 4 months ago and the first week the check engine light was on.

- Kennett , MO, USA

The contact owns a 2012 Chevrolet Cruze. The contact stated that the vehicle was leaking and there was an anti freeze odor. The vehicle was taken to the dealer five times, but the failure was unable to be determined. The dealer replaced the thermostat, but the failure recurred. The contact mentioned that the anti freeze odor was strong, which caused headaches. The vehicle was taken to the dealer on a separate occasion where dye was added into the radiator to find a leak, but failed. On another occasion, the vehicle was taken to a dealer where a pressure test was performed but the anti freeze odor became worse. The failure mileage was 32,600.

Drove my car about 70 miles on the interstate once I got into town and stopped at a red light the car began to sputter, when I accelerated the car was hesitant. Major safety concern, I could have been rear ended. Also, when making a left hand turn onto a busy state route the car would not accelerate it was very hesitant making the turn to a point I thought the car was going to stall, in front of oncoming traffic. The car is at the dealer today getting the coolant recall completed and it will be computer checked for the engine light. From what I was told by another mechanic, the car is loosing vacuum pressure and the valves or valve cover is leaking.

While accelerating from a stop, engine suddenly lost power, warning lights came on, "reduced engine power" message displayed. Brought car to a stop, accelerator pedal did nothing, engine would only idle. Shut engine off for 20 seconds, restarted, and pedal worked, car would accelerate. Returned home, scanned engine control module for codes, found P2135 for throttle position sensor. Took to dealer for repairs under warranty, they cleaned throttle body. Had car back for 2 days and problem occurred again. Found same code, returned car to dealer. Chevy dealer was reluctant to replace throttle body, didn't even mention the malfunction and wanted to instead replace a coolant sensor. I was able to convince them to replace throttle body, and the repair order states that they updated the ECM software level. I believe there is a tsb which should be a recall. Sudden loss of engine power is extremely dangerous when pulling into traffic, merging, etc.

Reported oil pressure drop alert on my car, strong rubber burning smell and smoke coming from engine. Oil was spraying out on engine, reported the issue to Chevy, however they state nothing can be done until mid April.

For the past several months since June 2014, I have been experiencing the vehicle acceleration performance decrease. Once at a stop or stop light, it takes the vehicle between 10 to 40 seconds to fully pick up speed upon pressing on the acceleration. Today (02/14/2015) the vehicle stopped with engine light on while I was trying to move from a stop sign. This was scary. I imagined this wound have been terrible if I was in the midst of fast moving vehicles. I went online to check if there was a trend in the Chevy Cruze acceleration and random engine shut down; sadly I came across several complaints from the following link: www.carcomplaints.com/Chevrolet/Cruze/2012/engine/engine.shtml this is a serious issue, and I urge the federal government to investigate these complaints and notify GM to take immediate action upon completion of the fed investigation. It is sad that we cannot even rely on home made products.

Strong smell of antifreeze while driving, strong smell of antifreeze under the hood, antifreeze leaking on serpentine belt and sprayed around engine compartment. Dealer replaced water pump.

- Hastings, MN, USA

Very strong smell of burning oil when car comes to a stop. Oil sprayed all over the top rear of engine and down back of engine. Dealer replaced PCV valve and manifold cover at 44,678 miles due to recurring antifreeze leak and lean fuel / low vacuum condition. Going back to dealer again I guess before it bursts into flames.
