THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON AND THE CODE READS AS A PROBLEM WITH THE OXYGEN SENSOR (WHICH HAS BEEN A RECALL ON OTHER CHEVY CRUZE MODELS). OUR SPECIFIC VIN NUMBER HASN'T BEEN ASSOCIATED WITH THE RECALL BUT WE ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET CRUZE. WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO RUN HOT AND THE CHECK ENGINE INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE WATER OUTLET WAS BREAKING APART AND CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO RUN HOT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BEST CHEVROLET (2600 VETERANS MEMORIAL BLVD, KENNER, LA 70062, (504) 315-7790) WHERE THE DEFECT WAS OFFICIALLY DIAGNOSED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE CONTINUED. THE CHEVROLET MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

I NOTICED ONE DAY WHILE DRIVING THAT MY ENGINE WAS RUNNING VERY HOT. WHEN I ARRIVED TO MY DESTINATION, I POPPED THE HOOD AND DISCOVERED EXTREMELY LOW COOLANT LEVEL. ALSO NOTICED FLUID LEAKING FROM UNDER MY CAR. I TOOK IT TO A LOCAL SHOP TO BE EVALUATED. IT WAS DETERMINED THAT I NEEDED TO REPLACE MY WATER PUMP & THERMOSTAT. I AM ONLY AT 41,000 MILES.

VEHICLE WAS DRIVING DOWN HIGHWAY AT 45 MILES PER HOUR WHEN I RECEIVED A CHIME ALARM TELLING ME MY CAR WAS OVERHEATED. NO WARNING BEFORE THIS OF LOW COOLANT. DIAGNOSED AS A FAILED WATER PUMP. DID A GOOGLE SEARCH AND COME TO FIND OUT SEVERAL COMPLAINTS ON THIS HAPPENING TO THIS YEAR AND MAKE OF VEHICLE. MY CAR HAS 57,000 MILES ON IT AND MANY COMPLAINTS HAVE BEEN SENT OUT BY OTHERS OF THIS ISSUE. I THINK ITS TIME TO TAKE ACTION AS THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A BIG PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE. I WAS PROUD TO BUY A CHEVY CRUZE AND FEEL ASHAMED OF MYSELF FPR NOT LOOKING UP ISSUES BEFORE I BOUGHT IT.VEHICLE WENT I TO LIMP MODE WITHOUT PRIOR NOTICE AND COULD HAVE CAUSE A MAJOR ACCIDENT.

MY CHEVY CRUZE LT WILL SHOW A MESSAGE ON THE DASH READING AC OFF DUE TO HIGH ENGINE TEMP. AND ANOTHER MESSAGE SAYING ENGINE OVERHEATING IDLE ENGINE. NO MECHANIC CAN FIGURE OUT THE ISSUE AND THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN HAPPENING THE LAST TWO YEARS 2018 AND THIS YEAR 2019. MY AC IS NOT TURNED ON WHEN THIS MESSAGE APPEARS. IT TAKES ALL MY RADIATOR FLUID FROM THE RESERVOIR LEAVING MY FLUID EMPTY. THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS ONLINE THROUGH FORUMS REGARDING THE SAME PROBLEM OTHER CHEVY CRUZE OWNERS ARE HAVING AS WELL. HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM I HAVE.

HAVE HAD TO CHANGE OUT THE THERMOSTAT THREE (3) TIMES IN ONE YEAR (MARCH 2018 TO MARCH 2019).

TURBO HAD TO BE REPLACED AT APPROXIMATELY 50K MILES. THE MALFUNCTION NEARLY CAUSED A SERIOUS ACCIDENT ON THE FREEWAY, AND WAS NOT DRIVABLE UNTIL FIXED. NOW, AT 73K MILES, THE VEHICLE SLOWED DOWN AFTER STUTTERING ON THE FREEWAY WHILE MY 18 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING IT HOME LAST NIGHT. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON, AND IT IS NOT DRIVEABLE AGAIN. THIS IS HOW IT ACTED THE FIRST TIME THE TURBO WENT OUT. RECENTLY I HAVE WORRIED ABOUT TURNING LEFT WHEN CARS ARE EVEN SOMEWHAT CLOSE, AS IT LOSES POWER.

TAKATA RECALL. THE PROBLEM IS OUR WATER PUMP. THE CAR ONLY HAS 63,000 MILES ON IT. WE HAD IT FIXED BY A MECHANIC BUT CAN STILL SMELL ANTIFREEZE THE SAME SMELL WHEN THE WATER PUMP WENT OUT AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME BACK ON. HOPEFULLY YOU PEOPLE CAN FIGURE THIS OUT OR IF THERE ARE MORE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE IT COST US A LOT OF MONEY AND HAD TO CANCEL APPOINTMENTS BECAUSE OF IT. THE CAR WAS BEING DRIVEN BY MY WIFE ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN SHE NOTICED SHE DIDN'T HAVE ANY HEAT PULLED INTO A DRIVEWAY AND SAW LOTS OF FLUID AROUND THE ENGINE WITH A STRONG SMELL OF ANTIFREEZE.

CAR JERKS AND SHAKES DUE TO ENGINE MALFUNCTION. ENGINE HAS A MANAFUCTERS CRACK AND IT SHAKES WHILE STATIONARY AND MOVING

TAKATA RECALL. I HAVE A CONCERN THAT CHEVY CRUZE MIGHT HAVE AN ISSUE WITH THE TURBO OF THE VEHICLE. MY CAR IS 3 YEARS OLD AND HAS NOW EXPERIENCED A TURBO ISSUE. I PERSONALLY KNOW OF 2 OTHER VEHICLE OWNERS WITHIN MY AREA THAT IS CURRENTLY GOING THROUGH THE SAME ISSUE.

MY CAR HAS A "KNOCKING" SOUND, I'VE BEEN TOLD IT'S MY "LIFTERS" AND THAT MY CAR IS TOO NEW TO SOUND LIKE THIS ALREADY! I AM THE FIRST OWNER AND I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP SINCE DAY ONE FOR OIL CHANGES OR ANY OTHER ISSUES

WHILE DRIVING I NOTICED MY VEHICLE WASN'T GIVING OUT MUCH HEAT, I WAS FREEZING AND I EVEN LET MY CAR HEAT UP BEFORE LEAVING. SOON A WARNING LIGHT CAME ON SAYING "AC OFF DUE TO HIGH ENGINE TEMP" IT WAS THEN I LOOKED AND NOTICED MY TEMPERATURE GAGE AND REALIZED MY CAR WAS OVERHEATING. I GOT IT HOME SHUT IT OFF AND THE FAN WAS STILL GOING. SO I STARTED MY CAR AGAIN, LOOKED AT THE GAGES TO SEE THAT EVERYTHING WAS NORMAL. I PROCEEDED TO TURN MY CAR BACK OFF AND THIS TIME THE FANS TURNED OFF. DOING SOME RESEARCH AND FOUND THAT THERE ARE MANY CASES IN WHICH THIS IS HAPPENING WITH OTHER 2015 MODELS AND ALSO WITHIN 2014 BACK TO 2012. HOPING THIS IS AN ISSUE CHEVY CAN MAKE RIGHT.

WHEN DRIVING MY 2015 CHEVY CRUZE DOWN THE HIGHWAY I NOTICED THAT THE TEMPERATURE OF THE CAR WAS GOING UP PAST THE NORMAL POINT AND THAT THE HEATER WAS NO LONGER WORKING. ABOUT 5 MINUTES LATER THE DISPLAY SAID "A/C TURNED OFF DUE TO EXCESSIVE ENGINE HEAT" AND THEN THE CAR PROCEEDED TO GO INTO "LIMP" MODE WHERE IT COULD NO LONGER BE DRIVEN AND TOLD ME TO PULL OVER AND ALLOW IT TO IDLE. AFTER A MINUTE OR TWO WITH THE ENGINE TEMPERATURE NOT GOING DOWN, I TURNED OFF THE CAR AND HAD IT TOWED TO A GM CERTIFIED MECHANIC WHO REPORTED THAT THE WATER PUMP HAD GONE OUT AND THAT THE CAR HAD BEEN LEAKING COOLANT.

WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH, I NOTICED ENGINE COOLANT LEAKAGE HAD OCCURRED. ALL THE COOLANT HAD BEEN EVACUATED FROM THE RESERVOIR ONTO THE PAVEMENT. VEHICLE HAD TO BE TOWED TO THE MECHANIC SHOP AND EVALUATED. MECHANIC TOLD ME THAT THE WATER PUMP HAD LEAKED ALL THE COOLANT AND HAD TO BE REPLACED ALONG WITH THE THERMOSTAT. ACCORDING TO SERVICE BULLETIN 14371A, ONLY MODEL YEAR 2011-2014 ARE AFFECTED. I BELIEVE THAT MODEL YEAR 2015 SHOULD BE ADDED.

OUR 2015 CHEVROLET CRUZE STARTED IDLING AT HIGH RPMS, HAD TROUBLE SHIFTING AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. WE TOOK IT IN AND WAS TOLD COULDN'T FIND THE PROBLEM SO THEY RESET THE CODE. IT STARTED AGAIN AFTER ABOUT TWO WEEKS SO WE TOOK IT TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC SHOP. THEY SAID IT WAS THE PCV VALVE AND THAT THEY HAVE SEEN A LOT OF CRUZE' WITH THIS PROBLEM.
