WHEN THIS PROBLEM FIRST OCCURED IN MY CAR, NONE OF THE GAUGES ON THE CAR WORKED. ALL WERE INACTIVE INCLUDING SPEEDOMETER, GAS METER, CAR TEMP, AND RPM METER. THE AIR CONDITIONING WAS NOT WORKING AND THE RADIO WAS NOT WORKING EITHER. AT THIS TIME THE CAR WAS RUNNING, AND I WAS ON A HIGHWAY. THE ENGINE WAS STILL RUNNING. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP IMMEDIATELY TO HAVE THE PROBLEM FIXED. A FEW DAYS LATER MY CAR WAS RETURNED TO ME AND LESS THAN 100 MILES LATER THE CAR MALFUNCTIONED AGAIN IN THE SAME MANNER. MY CAR WAS THEN HELD ON TO FOR A WEEK AND A HALF WHERE THE DEALERSHIP WAS ABLE TO DUPLICATE THE MALFUNCTION AND REPLACE A FEW MODULES. THEY CLAIMED TO HAVE FIXED THE PROBLEM, AND FOUR DAYS LATER THE CAR MALFUNCTIONED AGAIN, THIS TIME WAS DIFFERENT BECAUSE THE ACTUAL ENGINE TURNED COMPLETELY OFF AND THEN BACK ON AGAIN. THIS WAS SURPRISING TO ME AND LUCKILY I WAS PARKED WHEN THIS OCCURRED. THIS IS THE THIRD TIME I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR FOR REPAIRS AND I HAVE STILL NOT RECEIVED A SOLUTION. THIS HAS ALSO BECOME A SAFETY HAZARD TO MYSELF AND DRIVERS AROUND ME.

General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2016-2018 Chevrolet Cruze LS vehicles, equipped with a gasoline engine and a tire inflator kit instead of a spare tire. The vehicles may leak gasoline following a rear-impact crash and a rollover. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 301, "Fuel System Integrity."
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: A fuel leak, in the presence of an ignition source, increases the risk of a fire.
Remedy: GM will notify owners, and dealers will install a lock-ring on the fuel tank that will shield the fuel tank vapor pressure sensor from damage in a rear-impact crash, free of charge. The recall began June 7, 2018. Owners may contact Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020. GM's number for this recall is 18159.

As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 202a, "Head Restraints."
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: In a crash, the seat-backs for the front seats may break, increasing the risk of injury to the occupants.
Remedy: GM will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the front passenger seats, replacing any with seat-back frames that are incorrectly welded, free of charge.
