Consumer Description

THE CAR HAS BEEN LOSING POWER OVER THE PAST FEW MONTHS WHILE UNDER WARRANTY. I KEPT TAKING IT BACK TO THE CHEVY DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID NOTHING WAS WRONG AND RESET THE LIGHT. HOWEVER NOW THE CAR WILL NOT BARELY GO, I HAVE POWER BUT ITS FORCED AND ITS AS IF I HAVE TO PUSH THE CAR UP THE HILLS TO GO. I LIVE IN PENNSYLVANIA SO THIS IS NOT AN IDEAL SITUATION, BUT I HAVE HAD MY OIL CHANGED REGULARLY EVERY 3,000 MILES ALTHOUGH OTHER ISSUES HAVE OCCURRED WITH THE CAR LIKE THE COOLING SYSTEM AND THE TEMP GAGE THIS TIME I HAVE HAD IT CHECKED PROFESSIONALLY WITH AN OUTSIDE CONSULT RATHER THAN GOING TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY STATED THAT IT IS MY TURBO IT DOESN'T WORK AND PROBABLY HASN'T WORKED PROPERLY ON MY CAR. I HAVE BEEN ON SEVERAL FORUMS FOR CHEVY CRUZES AND IT SEEMS LIKE THERE ARE LOTS OF PEOPLE WITH THIS ISSUE AS WELL. *TR
