NHTSA Complaint #10503649 — 2011 CHEVROLET CRUZE

THE CHROME COATING ON THE INSIDE DRIVERS SIDE PLASTIC DOOR HANDLE IS FAILING. THE EDGES OF THE CHROME WHERE IT HAS SEPARATED FROM THE PLASTIC ARE RAZOR SHARP AND HAVE CAUSED MULTIPLE FAIRLY DEEP LACERATIONS TO MY FINGERS WHEN OPENING THE DOOR. I INQUIRED AT THE DEALER ABOUT THEM REPLACING THE PART UNDER WARRANTY BECAUSE ITS CAUSING ME INJURY DESPITE MY CAUTIOUSNESS WHILE OPENING THE HANDLE, THEY TOLD ME IT WASN'T COVERED AND WOULD BE AN EXPENSIVE FIX DUE TO THE LABOR INVOLVED. MY SECOND COMPLAINT IS THE HEAT WORKS INTERMITTENTLY AND WHEN TAKEN TO THE DEALER, THEY SAID I HAD A CRACKED THERMOSTAT HOUSING WHICH WOULD BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. THEY DID NOT FIX IT HOWEVER AND SIMPLY REFILLED MY ANTIFREEZE AND SAID THEY WOULD CALL ME TO HAVE IT FIXED WHEN THE PART CAME IN....THAT WAS ALMOST TWO WEEKS AGO. *TR
