The check engine light keeps coming on and the code reads as a problem with the oxygen sensor (which has been a recall on other chevy Cruze models). Our specific VIN number hasn't been associated with the recall but we are having the same issue.
Bought a used 2015 chevy Cruze ltz, carfax checked out except for when the vehicle was a year old it failed emissions testing 5/2019 (no detailed information of the work done, assuming work done) but it shows as passing ever since until December 2019. Check engine light came on 12/20\19 coming to a stop or right as car was parked, code p0420 on 12/24/19 failed emissions, catalytic converter replaced 12/26/19, car picked up 12/28/19 check engine light on again same day after filling up with gas, starting car but was stationary, car returned to dealer dtc of p0420 again, 12/31 universal flex, clamp/weld done. Car picked up 1/2/2020, check engine light came on coming to a stop at a red light. Car returned to dealer 1/20/2020. Told possibly faulty aftermarket catalytic converters used, ordering catalytic converter from gm. Waiting for that to take place.
Throttle position sensor. Check engine light came on car started blogging down dropping rpms while driving, as I came to a complete stop the car would drop rpms and then go above then normal idle rpms but seemed to want to go while my foot was on the break. . When the car is off the code is reading the throttle position at 16. 5% when it should be at zero! when the car is on the throttle position reads at 40% not 100%. It is a huge concern considering the throttle can get stuck at any point and their goes my life as well as my 2 year olds life.
Turbo had to be replaced at approximately 50k miles. The malfunction nearly caused a serious accident on the freeway, and was not drivable until fixed. Now, at 73k miles, the vehicle slowed down after stuttering on the freeway while my 18 year old daughter was driving it home last night. Check engine light is on, and it is not driveable again. This is how it acted the first time the turbo went out. Recently I have worried about turning left when cars are even somewhat close, as it loses power.
When starting the car, a previously used 2015 chevy Cruze lt, the check engine light came on and the messages �service traction control� and �service stabilitrak� appeared. When driving, there was a noticeable reduction in acceleration power.
Tried twice, car did not start. No lights just dead. Tried once more started, all looked ok. Drove 1/4 mile engine died with a clunk and jerk, service power steering warning came on, then service traction control warning came on. Steered off road (power steering was working) put vehicle in park, tried to start several times. Interior light came on but would not start. After several minutes tried again, started and check engine light was lit. Drove to home and while in reverse to park, engine died again.
