There is a known issues with the 2016+ chevy Cruze models where the top mounted brake light cracks and water leaks into the trunk under the spare tire and into the battery compartment. The water also comes into contact with other electrical components that are between the rear seat and rear quarter panel. This causes a musty/mildew smell in the vehicle and can potentially cause electrical shorts and issues due to the components that are in the affected area.

I was driving down highway 295 in new jersey doing 70 mph when I heard some knockin under my hood of my car. . . I get near the paulsboro exit when I hear the knocking again I get to the exit and my power steering isnt working so I forcefully turn the wheel to pull over I turn on my hazards on pop the hood and I see my serpentine belt is off the rotation track and I get my phone and use the light and see the alternator hanging by a wire hanging underneath my car. I called chevy told them what happened to my car they towed my car to chevy certified mechanics I asked how did this happen and nobody knows why my 2017 car tried to kill me on 295.
