Power train, axle assembly, axle shaftMar 31, 2014
General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2013 and 2014 Chevrolet Cruze vehicles equipped with a 1.4L turbo engine, and manufactured between November 28, 2012, and March 7, 2014. On the affected vehicles, the right front half shaft may fracture and separate.
If the half shaft fractures and separates while driving, the vehicle would lose power and coast to a stop. If a vehicle with a fractured half shaft is parked without the parking brake applied, the vehicle could move unexpectedly. Either condition increases the risk of a crash.
GM will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and replace the right half shaft, as needed, free of charge. Parts for the remedy are not currently available. GM will send an interim letter to owners in May 2014. A second owner letter will be mailed when parts are available. Owners may contact Chevrolet at 1-866-694-6546. GM's number for this recall is 14079. This is an expansion of recall 13V-452. NOTE: Some vehicles subject to this recall were subject to the recall campaign initiated in 2013. Some of those vehicles were repaired using defective parts. Those owners will be advised that they must have their vehicles remedied again under this campaign and that having the earlier recall completed did not remedy their vehicles.

Power train, automatic transmissionFeb 21, 2014
General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2014 Buick Regal, LaCrosse, Verano, and Enclave, and Chevrolet Impala, Malibu, Cruze, and Traverse, and GMC Acadia vehicles equipped with automatic transmissions. In the affected vehicles, the transmission shift cable adjuster may disengage from the transmission shift lever. As such, these vehicles do not conform to Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 102, "Transmission Shift Lever Sequence, Starter Interlock, and Transmission Braking Effect." They also fail to conform to FMVSS number 114, "Theft Protection and Rollaway Prevention."
If a vehicle's shift cable disengages from the transmission shift lever, a driver may be unable to shift gear positions and the indicated shift position may not represent the gear position the vehicle is in. Should a disengagement occur while the vehicle is being driven, when the driver goes to stop and park the vehicle, the driver may be able to shift the lever to the "PARK" position, but the vehicle transmission may not be in the "PARK" gear position. If the vehicle is not in the "PARK" position there is a risk the vehicle will roll away as the driver and other occupants exit the vehicle or anytime thereafter. A vehicle rollaway increases the risk of injury to exiting occupants and bystanders.
General Motors will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and replace any affected transmission shift cable adjusters, free of charge. The recall began on April 10, 2014. Chevrolet owners may contact General Motors at 1-800-222-1020, Buick owners at 1-800-521-7300, and GMC owners at 1-800-462-8782. General Motors' number associated with this recall is 14048.

If the half shaft fractures and separates while driving, the vehicle would lose power and coast to a stop. If a vehicle with a fractured half shaft is parked without the parking brake applied, the vehicle could move unexpectedly. Either condition increases the risk of a crash.
General Motors has notified owners. Dealers will replace the half shaft assembly, free of charge. The safety recall began on October 15, 2013. Owners may contact General Motors at 1-800-521-7300. This is General Motors campaign number 13276.

WHEN MAKING A SLIGHT CORRECTION ON THE HI-WAY THE STEERING WHEEL FEELS AS IF IT BINDS AND THE AFTER A SHORT TURN OF THE WHEEL IT SUDDENLY TAKES OFF. IT DOES THIS IN EITHER DIRECTION AND YOU END UP WEAVING BACK AND FORTH TRYING TO STAY IN YOUR LANE. THE CAR IS NOW BEGINNING TO DO THIS AT ALL SPEEDS ON THE HI-WAY AND I AM BEGINNING TO FEEL UNSAFE. THERE SEEMS TO BE NO PROBLEM AT SLOW SPEEDS AROUND THE CITY. *TR

I WAS DRIVING EAST ON THE ROAD. THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME SUDDENLY STOPPED AND I WAS UNABLE TO STOP BEFORE HITTING THEM. I DO FEEL I WAS FOLLOWING AT A SAFE DISTANCE BUT FOR SOME REASON THE CAR DID NOT SLOW DOWN OR STOP AS I FEEL IT SHOULD HAVE. THE FRONT END OF THE CAR CRUMPLED THOUGH THE AIR BAGS NEVER DEPLOYED AND THE ONSTAR CRASH RESPONSE NEVER ACTIVATED. THERE WAS ALSO VERY MINIMAL, IF ANY, DAMAGE TO THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME (POSSIBLY DENTED THE BUMPER). ON A SIDE NOTE, I HAVE OWNED THIS CAR FOR 2 MONTHS NOW AND HAVE ONLY BEEN ABLE TO DRIVE IT FOR APPROXIMATELY 17 DAYS BECAUSE I HAVE TO KEEP TAKING IT BACK TO THE SHOP TO BE WORKED ON FOR MALFUNCTIONS IN OTHER SYSTEMS OF THE BRAND NEW CAR. I AM CONCERNED THAT THERE MAY HAVE BEEN A MALFUNCTION WITH THE BRAKES SYSTEM OR AIRBAGS AS WELL.

SUDDENLY THE DRIVERS SIDE WIPER ONLY WENT UP ABOUT ONE-QUARTER OF THE WAY OF NORMAL AND THE PASSENGER SIDE WENT CLEAR OVER THE STUCK DRIVERS SIDE WIPER. DESPITE ALL ATTEMPTS TO FIX IT AT THE CLOSEST GAS STATION I COULDN'T FIND OUT WHERE THE PROBLEM OCCURRED, BUT I DID SEE THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE COULD NOT GO UP AND DOWN BY PULLING IT MANUALLY, BUT THE DRIVERS SIDE WOULD FREELY GO UP AND DOWN JUST BY MOVING IT MANUALLY. I COULDN'T SEE MUCH OF ANYTHING AFTER THAT, BUT GOT THE CAR HOME. *TR

MY 2014 CHEVY CRUZE ECO WAS HIT IN THE RIGHT REAR OF MY VEHICLE BY A 2015 CHRYSLER THAT WAS GOING APPROXIMATELY 40-45MPH. MY VEHICLE WAS GOING AROUND 20MPH. ONCE HIT IN THE REAR I WAS FLUNG FORWARD AND TO THE LEFT, CAUSING ME TO HIT MY HEAD ON THE LEFT A-PILLAR AND MOMENTARILY BLACKING OUT AND THEN WENT FORWARD MORE JUST STOPPING BEFORE HITTING MY HEAD ON THE STEERING WHEEL. THEN I HIT THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. NO AIRBAGS WERE DEPLOYED, NOT A SINGLE ONE. THE ONSTAR SYSTEM SAID THEY DETECTED AN AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT BUT NOTHING EXTERNALLY DEPLOYED IN VEHICLE.
