 Description of the problemI bought my 2013 cruze ltz about three months ago and i was sure that it was the perfect car, now, i'm fully aware that i was wrong.. I got in my car to leave for work on august 1, 2014 and when i started my car, the on dash maintenance reminders all went crazy telling me to "service power steering" and "service stabilitrak".. I knew this couldn't be right so i turned off the engine and restarted the car, the screen went crazy again with the service notifications. I didn't have time to have it checked out before work so i went ahead with my day, i got all the way to the interstate (which is about a mile and a half from my driveway) and noticed the steering was getting stiff so i pulled over and restarted the car again and the lights didn't come back on so i, again, went on about my day... Issue number two-- about three days later, and every day since, my on dash touch screen goes completely black, which wouldn't bother me so bad if it didn't make all of the "service" lights come back on. I don't "need" a touch screen but it would be really nice if i didn't feel like i was driving a ticking time bomb every day since the vehicle clearly has wiring issues. Now, if i touch the brakes or roll down a window, the screen goes completely black, the dash lighting flickers and the service lights come on. I've been searching forums for almost a month and it seems that numerous people are having these issues, not only myself. I'm so disappointed with my purchase, its almost unreal.. The perfect car, in the perfect color with more recalls (and other issues that haven't been recalled) than i even know how to deal with it. Never again will i buy a chevrolet vehicle. It is out of control to not be able to feel safe in a vehicle that you've worked extremely hard to get.
