I recently purchased a 2014 Chevy Spark with 49,000 miles. Within a week of using the vehicle the radio, chimes and warnings stopped working. I was driving and touched the rear window defroster. The radio went off and would not turn back on. I thought maybe a fuse had blown so I checked all related fuses. Then I did some research on line. I found numerous articles and recalls for this very same issue. I am the third owner of this Spark. The first owner had a recall service performed on the Spark that was related to the radio. Just a week before I purchase the Spark the second owner had the radio "repaired" at a Chevy dealership. Chevrolet at this point does not recognize that the problem is recall related because the recall service was performed once.

Car was working fine and shut off in parking lot. Then an attempt to restart it a couple of minutes later lead to failure to turn over (cranking was heard). Console lights were lighting intermittently and varied, including check engine and safety lock. Wipers started occasionally. Could not put in neutral to push it. Over a few hours, the battery was completely drained.

Car lost power and took longer to accelerate than normal while I was driving it. My car's dashboard showed the check engine light, reduced engine power light and a loss of traction control light. A car diagnostic recommended to change the throttle position sensor which I have done with no success. A dealership diagnostic said there was faulty wiring which would cost $600 to fix. I have not gone through with the repairs as of yet. I have met at least 2 other people that have this problem.

107,000 hwy/city miles. Catastrophic failure of the 2014 Chevrolet Spark's cvt control module and transmission. Dealership inspection revealed; permanently frozen actuators and control valves which cause the vehicle to stall, with engine running, on mild inclines, on ramps, off ramps, in heavy traffic, and stop lights. Very little time between the onset of mechanical - electrical malfunctions which include bucking, slippage and loss of momentum, before the amber "check engine light" deploys. By that time, it's too late..as stated earlier, loss of momentum on fast-paced interstates and heavy flow traffic lights, placed myself and passengers in unwarranted danger.

I have had to take this car in 4 times because the 4th cylinder keeps going out. The air barely works and I am just so disappointed in this car.
