2014 CHEVROLET CRUZE. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO DEFECTIVE TRUNK. CONSUMER STATES THAT THE TRUNK OPENS ON ITS OWN. *LD *JS *JS *JS

THE CAR WAS TAKEN IN TO BE ROUTINELY SERVICED AND IT WAS NOTICED THAT THERE WAS AN OIL LEAK. THE DEALERSHIP ONLY PROVIDE A TEMPORARY FIX. TRYING TO GET AN APT AS A FOLLOWUP WAS POINTLESS, BECAUSE THE DEALERSHIP INDICATED THAT THEY WERE BUSY. WELL, THE CAR CAUGHT FIRE AND THE SERV ICE DEPT. REFUSED TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THERE WAS A PROBLEM AND THAT THEY WERE TOO BUSY THE CAR WAS BEING DRIVEN ON A HIGHWAY, THERE WAS A POPPING SOUND, AND THEN THE CAR CAUGHT FIRE.

SEAL IN SPARE TIRE COMPARTMENT OF TRUNK NOT WELDED PROPERLY DURING MANUFACTURING CAUSING WATER LEAKAGE. THIS WAS DISCOVERED BY CHEVROLET SERVICE CENTER WHILE REPAIRING A DIFFERENT ISSUE.

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE ON THE HIGHWAY AT 68MPH WITH NO TRAFFIC ALONGSIDE NOR IN FRONT OF ME THE SUNROOF GLASS SHATTERED VOLUNTARILY CAUSING SMALL SHARDS OF GLASS TO FALL INTO MY FACE AND CLOTHING AS WELL AS OUTSIDE THE TOP OF THE VEHICLE. THE SUN SHADE WAS OPEN AND THE GLASS ON CLOSED ON THE ROOF AND NOT VENTED. THERE WAS NO CHANCE OF ROAD DEBRIS HITTING THE CLOSED SUNROOF NOR WAS THERE AN OVERPASS FROM ANYTHING TO FALL OFF FROM TO MAKE IMPACT. THE GLASS EXPLODED AND SPIDER-WEBBED THE ENTIRE SUNROOF.

I PURCHASED A LEASE VEHICLE (@500 MILEAGE AT THE TIME). A FEW MONTHS LATER, THE MOTOR SOUNDED LIKE I HAD OVER 100,000 MILES. VERY LOUD. I CHANGED THE OIL AT PERMITTED TIME, TOOK IT IN FOR A MECHANIC TEST DRIVE. MECHANIC SAID IT SEEMED FINE. FEEDBACK FROM PASSENGERS WERE AFFIRMING THAT THERE IS DEFINITELY AN ISSUE. IT SEEMS THE COLDER IT IS, THE HARDER IT RUNS. LIKE YOU NEVER CHANGE YOUR OIL, AND THE MUFFLER HAS A HOLE, OR THE MOTOR RUNS REAL HEAVY, LIKE RPMS STICKING. SOMETIMES ITS MORE FAINT. I TRIED HIGHER GRADE GASOLINE, AS ADVISED, THIS DID NOT HELP. MORE IMPORTANTLY. THE DOORS SHOULD DEFINITELY BE RECALLED. THEY ARE A SAFETY CONCERN. THEY SLAM BACK ON YOU EVEN IF OPENED ALL THE WAY, IF ON AN UNEVEN PAVEMENT OR SLIGHT INCLINE. THERE IS ONLY ONE LATCH AT ALL THE WAY OPEN. THIS HAS BEEN A MAJOR PROBLEM AND SLAMS BACK ON MY CHILDREN AND MYSELF. I AM CONCERNED FOR OTHERS THAT MAY DRIVE THIS VEHICLE. THERE SHOULD BE A SECOND LATCH OR CATCHING MECHANISM TO PREVENT IT SLAMMING ON YOUR LEGS/HEAD. *TR
