Hello, I bought a brand new Chevy Cruze 2012 LTZ. I have had quite a few problems with it so far which all have seemed to be common with it.
Had a Vaccum Cover Leak.
Had an Oil leak onto Serpentine Belt.
Both of these were common issues I looked up on the car.
However, I am having a plethora of other issues which no mechanic seems to have an answer for.
1. Took to chevy garage for the squealing my far is having. They said it was oil leaking on it. Fixed the oil leak and said squealing should stop because Serpentine Belt is fine. No dice. Still squealing badly. Stops when I press in brakes. I asked them if brakes. They said no the brakes are 40% and fine.
2. Sometimes loud clunk when I hit brakes in.
3. This is the biggie. While driving home today about 20 miles into my trip I was accelerating up a hill. I felt an immedate deceleration and the right side of the car seemed to drag and a sound like dragging aluminum cans on the ground started. It went away but came back a couple of time when accelerating up a hill.
I then noticed a minute later the RPMs were sitting at 2000 despite I was accelerating. No movement. As I pressed the accelerator in more the car jumped straight to 3000 rpms and was rising normally from there but it jolted the entire car.
Lastly, about another minute later any acceleration of any kind was making a whirring and whistling sound. In which I finally abandoned the car in a parking lot and called for a ride.
When it does the sudden deceleration it feels like the right side of the car jerks badly.
Anyone have any idea what the issue is?
My car is at 39k miles and is still under warranty until October.
