Consumer Description
I WOULD LIKE TO PUT IN A COMPLAINT ON MY CHEVY CRUZE 2011. SINCE PURCHASING IT, THERE HAVE BEEN 3 RECALLS DUE TO STEERING AND ENGINE. I HAVE HAD TO BRING THE CAR INTO THE DEALERSHIP 3 SEPARATE TIMES FOR THE RECALLS BEGINNING ONE MONTH AFTER PURCHASE. NOW, THE CAR HAS HAD 2 SEPARATE MAJOR PROBLEMS (ENGINE & CURRENTLY BACK AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR PROBLEM RELATED TO TRANSMISSION), THIS VEHICLE HAS BROKEN DOWN ONCE WHILE IN HEAVY TRAFFIC, BUT LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO PULL TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, AND THE SECOND TIME IT BROKE DOWN WAS ON A STREET LESS HEAVILY TRAVELED, HOWEVER, I WAS ALMOST REAR ENDED. IF THIS WOULD'VE OCCURRED WHILE ON A HEAVILY TRAVELED OR FASTER SPEED ZONE, I FEEL THAT A TERRIBLE CRASH WOULD HAVE HAPPENED. BOTH TIMES MAY HAVE RESULTED IN SERIOUS INJURY OR EVEN DEATH. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE IN THE VEHICLE AND WOULD RATHER IT SIT IN THE DRIVEWAY THAN TO RISK DRIVING IT. I LEASE THE VEHICLE, BUT I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW ANY OPTIONS FOR GETTING OUT OF THIS LEASE & GETTING INTO A SAFE CAR. THANK YOU! *TR
