Potential Consequences:
I BOUGHT THIS CHEVROLET CRUZE NEW IN JULY 2017. FROM NEW, AFTER YOU DRIVE THE CAR FOR APPROXIMATELY 15 MINUTES WITH THE AIR CONDITIONER ON, THERE IS A CHEMICAL SMELL COMING FROM THE VENTS. IT LASTS ABOUT 5 MINUTES BUT MAY COME BACK WITH A LONGER DRIVE. IT IS A VERY UNPLEASANT SMELL. I TOOK IT TWO DEALERS AND HAVE WORKED WITH GM. GM ADMITS THERE IS A PROBLEM AND HAVE RELEASED PIT5726 DESCRIBING THE EXACT PROBLEM I AM HAVING, BUT THEY DO NOT HAVE A SOLUTION TO OFFER ME. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT INHALING THIS CHEMICAL SMELL.

POWER TRAIN
Potential Consequences:
CLUTCH PEDAL DROPS TO THE FLOOR AND STICKS, DOES NOT RETURN. OCCASIONALLY STICKING POINT IS HIGH ENOUGH THAT IT IS STILL POSSIBLE TO SHIFT GEARS. SOMETIMES THE ENGAGEMENT POINT IS TOO LOW AND GEARSHIFTING BECOMES IMPOSSIBLE UNLESS DRIVER CAN PERFECTLY REV-MATCH AND FLOAT INTO THE GEAR. CHEVY SERVICE DEPARTMENT CAME BACK WITH TSB #PIP5558C FOR DEBRIS STUCK IN SMALL ORIFICE IN HYDRAULIC LINE AND ESTIMATED ~1500 IN REPAIR COSTS ON A CAR THAT ONLY HAS 40K MILES, AS THE CLUTCH SYSTEM IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY- WHY???? IT IS VERY DANGEROUS TO SUDDENLY AND WITHOUT WARNING BECOME UNABLE TO SHIFT GEARS IN A MANUAL CAR. THIS PROBLEM HAS HAPPENED TO ME ~5 TIMES IN THREE WEEKS, SOMETIMES WHILE STOPPED AT A LIGHT OR STOP SIGN AND SOMETIMES WHILE DRIVING AT SPEED. PEDAL CAN BE PULLED UP INTO NORMAL POSITION BY FOOT OR HAND BUT HYDRAULIC PRESSURE DOES NOT RETURN, THUS CLUTCH IS USELESS. THIS ISSUE APPEARS TO BE VERY COMMON AS THERE ARE NUMEROUS THREADS ON THE WEBSITE CRUZETALK.COM RELATED TO THE ISSUE AND TSB. THE FACT THAT THERE EVEN IS A TSB FOR THIS ISSUE SPEAKS TO ITS PREVALENCE. FOR GM TO IGNORE THIS DANGEROUS FAULT IN THEIR VEHICLES IS IRRESPONSIBLE AT BEST.
