 Description of the problemIn april of 2013 my 2013 chevy cruze shut off while attempting to drive off from a red light that just turned green, as soon as i stepped on the gas pedal the car just shut off. There were no other vehicles behind me so i immediately tried turning the car on but i had to put it park then start it again and continued en route and did not think anything of it. This happened twice within the next few months. The fourth incident i had a car full of family member and we were getting on the freeway on ramp slowing to come to a stop when the light turned green so as soon as i stepped on the gas pedal the car shut down and i had no control and was almost hit from behind luckily there was no car in the lane over so the truck behind me swerved into the next lane and i once again put the car in park started again and immediately called the dealership and took the vehicle into the dealership. I was told by the service department a few weeks later that they figured the problem was a low octane gas and i just needed to start using chevron only and they would give me $250 in chevron gas cards. I refused to pick up the car because i already only used chevron gas in the vehicle since i purchased it in december 2012 with only 3 miles. After 2 months of arguing back in forth about them not having a fix for the car i returned the rental and purchased a different vehicle elsewhere and filed a complaint with gm which also gave me the run around about the vehicle being fixed when it wasn't ever worked on to this day they have the car and i am now in collections and continuing this headache with gm. They said its not a recall but i have spoken to several other people including the rental company that has had the chevy cruze shut off on them as well.

  • 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.
