For the past year I've been dealing with my car overheating. The screen will display ac off due to high engine temperature, from then the screen will go to engine overheated idle engine, every time I drive these signals come on, if I stop at a stop sign or red light cold air automatically stars to kick out. I've taken it to three different Chevy dealerships along with two other repair shops, I've had a new water pump, new thermostat, timing house sensor changed and radiator flush done over the course of a year in a half and still to this day no one can seem to fix it.

Radio or touch panel restarted then vehicle began shaking and making vibration noises enigine noises error light began flashing and stability track was on the driver information center about a mile further down the road everything cleared up to include the flashing engine light. Now it is on again and doesnt clear up cannot drive it. Recently have replaced at my expense the PCV cover and PCV twice, the entire ac delco intake due to massive oil consumpotion the crank seal due to squealing the coil pack and plugs due to a cracked insulator and electrolisis on the contacts. I now have 114,000 miles on it and read there is a recall on the battery grounding system that causes this current system and covers up to 120,000 miles? I searched and it has 0 recalls on this vehicle.

The vehicle's radio flashes on and off and a 'service stabilitrak' warning comes on the odometer screen. I have read this causes serious issues with others that have had the same problem and there is no known fix.

My car has recently started to have the radio to turn on and off randomly. Sometimes more so when I push my brakes. Also occasionally get a service stabilltrak warning that flashes and goes away. From what I can read online, others have this problem with no solution. Some situations have gotten bad and I want to avoid that at all costs and get this fixed, or figure out if I have to trade it in and get a new vehicle.

Vehicle has been popping up service stabil trak - however dealership and onstar has ran diagnostics no codes populate- have experience radio shutting off and losing control of vehicle - there has been several articles about this issue with 2011-2015 Chevy Cruze. Afraid whatever this issue is will cause harm to other people this is not a single person issue everyone with this model is complaining about the service stabil trak this needs to be look into. Driving in motion turning corner losing control of steering for a brief second - power radios shutting off and dashboard blinks with all lights. This car is at 67K miles

When the air is on there is part of the engine that squeaks/whistles. It concerns me with driving. I have taken it to several dealerships and they can not find anything wrong with it. It is very annoying and would love to know what is wrong with my brand new car!

The sunroof glass spontaneously exploded while driving. Glass rained down on me while I was driving on the highway. The explosive sound almost made me lose control of the vehicle. Chevrolet has a recall on the 2014 Cruze for the sunroof glass. The recall says the glass that was installed is supposedly too thin and may fail. The dealer says that my VIN is not part of the recall. I believe that the sunroof glass recall needs to be expanded because my glass failed in a similar manner to those under the recall. The failed glass was bowed upward indicating that it was an internal failure not a rock hitting it.

My vehicle was totaled in an accident in which the drivers airbag did not deploy. Due to the fact that my son (the driver) who recently returned from the military was not in my insurance policy they refuse coverage. 2 weeks after the incident I received a letter from Chevrolet informing me about a recall on my vehicle pertaining to the reason of the accident.I filed a claim with Chevrolet, filed a claim with GM motors. Till this day I have called and left messages and they won't respond to my calls.

While driving on city streets the acceleration declines and almost stops. When trying to regain speed after a complete stop the car lunges forward then stops, , the RPM goes crazy, the red zone when entering the freeway I have very little power and have experienced hesitation. When I reach freeway speed I may sense a decline in speed but this doesn't happen all the time. The Chevrolet garage is unable to duplicate the problem or identify the cause, no light alerts.

I've only has the car a little over a year. My check engine light came on last month. I went to have it checked and I was told it was the catalytic converter. I also had a secund opinion fine and was told the same. There is no reason why the catalytic converter should need to be replaced so soon. I gave been checking for recalls and haven't found anything yet.
