Description of the problem	I just purchased my 2012 chevy cruze 3 months ago, it has 36,000 miles. Last week when i started off to work i got a reduced engine power message and the car would not accelerate. I read the manuel and followed the instructions, turned off the car, waited and restarted,but it still would not accelerate. I checked online for reported problems with the car and found that many people have had the same issue. I called the dealership and was told i could take the car in but would have to pay for any repairs because there was no recall on this problem. A few days later i started the car and it seemed fine so i tried driving it. It was fine for the first 15 minutes but then the reduced engine power light came on again and the car would not accelerate once again. I had to pull off to the side of the road, turn off the car and wait several minutes to be able to drive a short distance before the problem happened again. Thank god i was not on the highway when this happened or i could have been in a terrible accident. I can not believe that with so many owners reporting the same problem there has not been a recall. Also it appears the manufacturer was aware of the problem from the beginning because in the owners manuel they tell you what to do if this should happen.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
