| 2012 | STEERING | STEERING HAS INTERMITTENT ISSUE. WHILE DRIVING AT INTERSTATE SPEEDS IT FEELS AS THOUGH THE WHEEL GETS CAUGHT IN A NOTCH. BESIDES THAT WHEN THIS IS OCCURRING THE ELECTRIC STEERING GETS TWITCHY, AND PULLS 1/8-1/4IN TO THE RIGHT EVERY 10SECONDS OR SO. THE PROBLEM WENT AWAY, BUT HAVE READ OTHERS ONLINE WITH SIMILAR ISSUES. TOOK MY CAR TO DEALER & THEY COULD FIND NOTHING WRONG. HAS NOT OCCURRED SINCE. AT 12,000MILES MONTHS BEFORE THIS I STARTED MY CAR & HAD THE SERVICE POWER STEERING MESSAGE ON THE DRIVERS INFORMATION CENTER ON DASH. TOOK IN AT THAT POINT & WAS TOLD THERE WAS NO STORED CODES & NO ISSUES FOUND. I AM REPORTING THIS AS IT COULD CAUSE SOMEONE TO GET IN AN ACCIDENT AT INTERSTATE SPEEDS. PASSING A SEMI THE CAR KEPT TWITCHING/PULLING THE 1/8-1/4IN TOWARD THE SEMIS LANE EVERY 10SECONDS. PLEASE MAKE GM FIX THIS OBVIOUS SAFETY DEFECT. *TR |
| 2012 | ENGINE | COOLANT SMELL IN CAB, HVAC INTAKE DUCT MOUNTED LESS THAN 6INCHES FROM COOLANT SURGE TANK VENT. IN COLD WEATHER IT SMELL SEEMS WORSE. LOVE THE CAR BUT THIS SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING WITH A 2012 CAR, WITHIN MINUTES OF STARTING TO BREATH THIS POISON I GET CRAMPS IN MY SINUSES & START TO GET A MILD HEADACHE. READING ONLINE SEEMS GMS CURRENT FIX TO QUIET THE ISSUE BY BUYING BACK CUSTOMERS CARS, THAT LEAVES THE REST OF US CRUZE OWNERS BREATHING FUMES. *TR |
