When driving my 2018 Chevy Cruze I had multiple instances where the clutch pedal would go to the floor and not release, and the transmission could not be shifted into gear. General Motors has a technical service bulletin (tsb) on the issue stating that contamination of the hydraulic fluid causes the issue and it is only a warranty replacement for gasoline cars (the diesel models are not covered by the warranty in the tsb) if the car is still within the 5-year, 60,000 mile powertrain warranty. This is the same issue that affects opel/vauxhall astra cars in the uk and europe as they share the same parts (opel/vauxhall used to be owned by GM and used the same powertrain). The safety recall in europe consisted of replacing several transmission and brake system components as the brakes share the same hydraulic reservoir as the clutch. GM is ignoring this dangerous problem in the usa and refusing to fix the issue as a product recall. They have it as a tsb that is only a warranty repair if the problem occurs before the warranty runs out on the affected cars.

I have a 2018 Cruze that I was driving on a 4 lane highway on top of a mountain, the brakes went out with me and my 6 month old in car, I was able to get to shoulder, towed to Chevy, they said it was a faulty brake pump, and charged me 500 to fix it. Then less than 2 weeks later, same mountain, same thing, towed to the same Chevy, they said that the replacement pump had exploded and it was caused by engine piston issues, and want 5 grand to fix it. I believe that Chevy broke the car the first time and besides the fact, exploding brake pumps, 2 in a row is very scary. Luckily me and my child are still alive to be complaining about it, but we seriously came very close to being killed by these faulty brakes twice. I don't know if they lied about the repair or if it really is two exploding brake pumps in a row, but either way, these exploding brakes pumps are going to kill someone and it was almost me and my 6 month old baby. The Chevrolet dealer is auto nation in valencia ca.

I was travelling on the interstate at about 50 mph when traffic came to a sudden stop. I slammed on my brakes in plenty of time, but I rear-ended the van in front of me. At the time I thought I must have skidded into the van, but looking at the collision site later, there were no tire marks.

I was involved in a rear end collision with another vehicle when approaching an intersection. Rate of speed was 40 mph, and when brakes were firmly/heavily applied, the vehicle did not stop, which caused me to rear end the vehicle in front of me.

I have the vehicle service for the 30,000 miles flush on January 21,2019. On January 29th I was on the freeway in morning traffic heading North on the 110 when at 25 miles I made a sudden stop due to the car imfront of me. My car didn't stop and slammed into the car in front of me. My car was reported to be two days later as a total loss. I'm grateful my kids, sister and I weren't injured. Just doesn't make sense after just paying almost $500 a week before for servicing.

As I was backing out I placed my foot on the gas as I got ready to break I placed my foot on the brake, but that's when my foot slipped off the pedal and backed into the person behind me.
