2011 Chevrolet Cruze

DIRECT IMPACT WITH 1200 POUND COW WHILE DRIVING ON A STATE HIGHWAY, THE AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY. ENTIRE CAR ENGULFED IN FLAMES AS THE ENGINE IMMEDIATELY STARTED FIRE. TOTALLED. WHY DIDN'T THE AIRBAG DEPLOY? SERIOUS INJURY. SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. I HAVE PURCHASED 2 CRUZE'S BECAUSE OF THE SAFETY FEATURES. THIS IS SO NOT SAFE AND SO UNACCEPTABLE

ON OCTOBER 19,2018 MY IN LAWS WERE TRAVELING NORTH ON ROUTE 61 IN PENNSYLVANIA. THEY CAN TO A RED LIGHT AND RAN INTO THE BACK OF A MINIVAN AND THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. THEN WE DONT KNOW WHAT HAPPENED, BUT THE CAR ACCELERATED AND WENT THE LENGTH OF A FOOTBALL FIELD AND THEY HIT A POLE AND MY MOTHER IN LAW DIED INSTANTLY AND MY FATHER IN LAW DIED AT 5:10 AM.MY CONCERN IS WHY ISN'T IT AN INDUSTRY STANDARD THAT ONCE THE AIRBAGS ARE DEPLOYED THE THROTTLE DOESN'T SHUT DOWN. IF THE THROTTLE WOULD HAVE NOT WORKED THEY WAY STILL BE ALIVE.IF YOU CANT HELP ME COULD YOU SEND ME IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION.

I was hit side impact my airbags didn’t deploy in the car they deployed under the hood I was hit by a vehicle doing approximately 50 miles an hour the airbag that was supposed to go off went off under the hood instead of in the car

I WAS INJURED IN ACCIDENT.... HIT A STATIONARY VEHICLE.... THERE'S SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE TO MY VEHICLE...MY AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY... I AM SUFFERING FROM A SEVERE CERVICAL STRAIN, SEVERE NECK SPRAIN WITH INFLATION CAUSING SEVERE HEADACHES, A SEVERE UPPER AND LOWER BACK SPRAIN WITH INFLAMMATION CASING PRESSURE ON MY SCIATIC NERVE... I CANNOT LIFT, BEND , STAND , SIT, LIE DOWN FOR LONG PERIODS OF TIME, I EVEN HAVE TO HAVE HELP JUST TOO BATHE.. I BELIEVE THAT HAD DEPLOYED... MY INJURIES WERE NOT HAVE BEEN SO SEVERE.

I WAS DRIVING ON A RESIDENTIAL ROAD AT AROUND 1030PM. I HAD A BLOW OUT ON MY CAR EARLIER ON THE PASSENGER FRONT TIRE SO I HAD PUT A DONUT ON THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE. THE ROAD CURVED LEFT AND AS I WAS TRYING TO TURN MY VEHICLE TO GO AROUND THE CURVE OF THE ROAD MY STEERING WHEEL WOULD NOT TURN. IT WAS LOCKED IN A STRAIGHT POSITION. I APPLIED MY BRAKES BUT IT WAS TO LATE AND I HIT THE REAR END OF A PARKED SUV ON THE ROAD. I WAS VERY CONFUSED AND I HAD TO TAKE A FIELD SOBRIETY TEST IN WHICH I DID AND I PASSED. I WAS ISSUED A CITATION FOR FAILURE TO PROVIDE PROPER LOOK OUT. WHAT THE HECK IS THAT? I TOLD EVERYONE AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT THAT I COULD NOT TURN THE STEERING IT WOULD NOT TURN FOR ME, I HAVE HAD 2 LOWER BACK SURGERIES, I NEED ANOTHER ONE, I HAVE A SERIOUS PROBLEM WITH MY NECK WHICH IS GOING TO REQUIRE SURGERY, AT LEAST ONE SURGERY IF NOT MORE. I NEED TO HAVE MY LEFT KNEE RE DONE ALSO. I HAVE BEEN HAVING MAJOR HEADACHES AND MORE PAIN THAN USUAL SINCE THE ACCIDENT. MY LEFT WRIST GOT SCREWED UP ALSO. I COULD OF EASILY KILLED MYSELF. WELL THEN I GET THIS LETTER SAYING THAT THE STEERING WHEEL COULD HAVE FRICTION AND ACTUALLY STICK IN THE STRAIGHT POSITION. THE REASON BEING IS THAT THE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM IS WORKERS NOT CORRECTLY INSTALLING CRITICAL PARTS ON THE CAR. SO ENGINEERS HAVE CHANGED THE INSTALLATION PROCESSES FOR THE STEERING WHEELS AND TRANSMISSIONS TO MAKE SURE PARTS ARE INSTALLED CORRECTLY. WELL IT IS A LITTLE TO LATE FOR THAT FOR ME. MY VEHICLE WAS TOTALED. I RECEIVED THE LETTER ON DECEMBER 5, 2014. *TR

HIT A DEER HEAD-ON GOING APPROIXATELY 50 MPH CAUSING SEVERE DAMAGE TO THE FRONT END OF THE VEHICLE. AIR BAGS NEVER DEPLOYED, BUT COULD SMELL THE AIR BAGS AND HEAR THEM IN THE STEERING WHEEL MAKING NOISE. THE CRASH WAS ENOUGH THAT ON STAR WAS ALERTED OF THE CRASH AND CALLED 911. *JS

ON APRIL 30 2014, AROUND 11:00 AM THE CAR WAS TAKEN FOR SERVICE TO A CHEVROLET DEALER FOR A WHEEL ALIGNMENT,STEERING AND SUSPENSION SYSTEM INSPECTION AND AIR PRESSURE CONDITION CHECK, THE CHEVY CRUZE WAS AT THE SERVICE DEALER FOR APROX FOUR HOURS, WE THEN CAME HOME, AROUND 5:30 WE WENT TO A SHOPPING CENTER TO BUY SOMETHING AND ON THE WAY BACK HOME, APROX SIX BLOCKS FROM OUR HOME WE STOP ON A STOP SIGN ON A CURB/ANGLE STREET DIVIDER BY A SMALL CURB WITH TREES, WE THEN TRY TO PROCEED AND BARE RIGHT BUT THE CAR MADE SOME KIND OF A NOISE AND WENT LEFT GOING OVER SMALL CURB AND HITTING A TREE, WE WHERE GOING APROX 15 TO 20 MPH AT THE TIME OF IMPACT THE POLICE CAME AND MADE A REPORT, NO SUMMONS WHERE ISSUE BECAUSE THE POLICE OFFICER LOOK AT THE SCENE AND COMMENT THAT IT LOOKS LIKE THE CAR LOSS POWER/ CONTROL OF THE STEERING ,BRAKES AND COULD NOT BE CONTROL. THE CAR WAS A TOTAL LOSS SINCE IT WAS DAMAGES IN FRONT/ENGINE/AIR BAGS/ETC. WE KNOW FOR FACTS THAT THIS 2011 CHEVROLET CRUZE HAVE MANY RECALLS INCLUDING STEERING SHAFT SEPARATIONS/BRAKES/STEERING PROBLEMS.ETC. *TR

VEHICLE WAS TRAVELING AT SLOW SPEED COMING UP TO A LIGHT WHEN THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED, AND THERE WAS NO RESPONSE TO THE BRAKES RESULTING IN AN ACCIDENT WITH TWO OTHER CARS. THERE WAS DAMAGE DONE TO THE CAR IN FRONT DUE TO THE COLLISION. WE TOOK THE CAR IN FOR A ROUTINE MAINTENANCE AND FOUND THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE BRAKES. THEY REPLACED THE BRAKE PRESSURE SWITCH AND THAT HAS FIXED THE PROBLEM. WE NOTICED FROM THE VERY BEGINNING, THAT AT SLOW SPEEDS, IT REQUIRED WAY TOO MUCH PEDAL TO STOP THE CAR. THERE IS A THIRD PARTY INVOLVED IN THE WRECK WHO MAY SEEK BODY INJURY. *JS

VEHICLE WAS IN THE PARK POSITION, WHEN THE KEY WAS TURNED IN THE OFF POSITION THE CAR STARTED TO ROLL BACKWARD DOWN A HILL DRAGGING MY CHILD WITH IT. *TR
