Description of the problem	My 2013 chevy cruze almost got me in a really bad accident. It started when driving about 20 mph (transmission is in d) the car started to loose power felt like its stalling, rpm dropped then suddenly started going into reverse while the transmission is still on d i almost hit the car behind me. I stepped on my breaks and i put the transmission in park but the car surged forward in which i almost hit the car in front of me. I've taken this car several times to the dealership for transmission shifting problems but i felt that it was not completely fixed. The dealer always tells me that theres nothing wrong with the car. But now that i've almost hit 2 cars yesterday without any reason, i feel that the car is completely unsafe to drive and my wife even told me that she will never drive this car again. It's just sad to be having this many problems on a car with less than 50k milesyesterday my 2013 chevy cruze almost got me in a really bad accident.

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.
