Anti-theft Controller Problems of Chevrolet Cruze

When I was driving at 30 mph my wheel locked up and a messages appeared on my dash saying power steering fail. I had no control over my wheel and that happened twice in a 5 minute drive. My wheel now has resistance when turning. The next day when trying to start my car it stalled, when started again a message appeared about the anti theft system being activated- I couldn't drive my car. When I restarted it again another message appeared saying �roll driver window down and back up�. The same night I was driving 5 minutes down the road and everything inside of my car turned off- dashboard, lights, radio, I'm pretty sure my car even turned off for that second and that happened 3 times in the span of a 5 minute drive, all while my wheel is still resisting to turn. On a diagnosis nothing appears to be wrong with my vehicle. This is extremely unsafe and I am very concerned.

My vehicle has been having issues where it will take extra time to get it started up. When I finally do get it started, warning lights flash saying power steering system, the antitheft stays on, as well as the engine management light. I just had my car serviced not too long ago for a coolant leak on the engine hose. I have always kept up with oil changes as well as all other fluid levels checked regularly. I first began thinking it was the battery, however I have had the battery tested and it is still basically new.

Car slow to crank, check power steering comes on or check anti theft system occasionally. Sometimes the wipers, emergency lights or trunk pops open. No on can give me an answer as to what the heck is going on with my 2012 cruz. This happens while the car is stationary.

Intermittently the anti-theft light goes on, without warning at an high speeds or when parked and shuts down all systems, immobilizing the car. This includes the radio, steering, motor. Two days ago I was driving and this happened, the car shut down, I couldn't steer or drive the car, a very dangerous situation. This has also happened when trying to start the car, the ant-theft system shuts down the car. There is no way to know when this will happen. When taken to auto dealer, the car works fine. The car has 66,000 miles. This has happened at least 6 times, but the last one was the worst, travelling at high speed and losing control of the car. What happened is similar to what happened with the ignition switch in cobalts where the car just stopped, that is pretty much what happened with me.

First the car would not start. After multiple attempts it did start and service anti theft system flashed. Shortly after, while stopped, all of the dash lights began flickering on and off causing multiple service codes to flash. Then while driving the power steering would stop working at random times.

I bought this car for my daughter, the second or third week after she got it she started to notice the radio flickering on and off while driving for no reason, which eventually led to the radio flickering continuously after using blinkers &windows. "service stabilitrak" flashes on the display often but very quickly and goes off. Doesn't occur every time I drive, but it does it more times than not. Now the radio will flicker and I will occasionally lose cruise control and power steering. I also have no blinkers/radio when this happens. It usually only happens briefly and will return to normal soon after, but it continues to do it off and on until I park. I have also noticed this occurring when I shift gears to park. Most recently I went to start my car and it just clicked and wouldn't start. I got it to start and it said "service anti theft deterrent," then changed to "service power steering" just as I lost power steering while driving. "service stabilitrak quickly flashed next all while I lost blinkers, power steering, and radio. I parked, turned my car off and restarted it and it was just fine. It has been to the chevy dealer once but they could not get a code to read because they can't get the radio to flicker, etc because it only happens every so often but when it does happen it is scary! so there is nothing they can do to fix it. Please look into it as I do not feel it is safe for her to drive. This has been going on for 3 months now and I do not feel like this car is reliable which is the reason I bought it! there has to be something that can be done as I have read several complaints that are extremely similar to mine! I also have come to the conclusion that the problems are going to continue to worsen after reading the other complaints. It is a major problem. Please don't wait until something tragic happens before something is done about this! please!.

I got my car in March & absolutely loved it! for the first few months I had no problems. Then I started to notice the radio flickering on and off while driving for no reason, which eventually led to the radio flickering continuously after using blinkers &windows.

I was driving home from work, about 15 miles on the freeway at the speed limit which is 75 mph. The car with no warning completely shut itself off. As a result, I lost the ability to steer or break. I would estimate it stayed off for approximately 5 seconds before kicking back on, without my having to restart. I treated this as an anomaly. Last week on my way to work, which is in the dark at 3am, it shut itself of 3 times within 10 miles of a 70 mile drive. Each time giving me a service indicator light of some sort ( service stabilitrak, service anti theft. . . ) I had no steering, no breaks and no lights. Again this is in the dark!! I noticed that there are 43 other complaints of this very serious safety issue with no resolution from this site , the dealerships or the manufacturer. Is it going to take a death or horrifyingly bad accident to get this addressed???.

Car drives fine but interior lights go out radio starts blinking and service stabilitrak, service traction control, service antitheft, and service power steering lights come on the dash. I took the car to the dealership where they replaced the bcm. This did nothing 4 days later it all started again. After turning the car off everything resets. On some occasions the antitheft stops the car from starting back up I have to leave the car sit with the key on engine off for about 5 minutes then it will start. There is no loss of power in the engine and all the gauges still work. When I apply the brakes this happens, or when I try to roll down the window, or even when im just cruising down the street without and changing speed or anything in the car.

My 2012 chevy Cruze turned the radio dashboard on/off and the heck engine light came on in December 2013 the engine light remained on the radio only once then didn't do it again. In February 2014 it started doing it again this time the stereo would turn on/of, the dash board on/off and my locks would unlock and lock themselves the blinker stopped making the clicking sound and the open door sound failed as well. This problem would occur occasionally until April 2014 the vehicle started to do all the issues above except this time it would include anti theft,service stabiltrack,and power warnings every time and the vehicle would turn off/on the engine and required me to put it on park and turn it off/on. In may 12 of 2014 I took the vehicle into the Chevrolet dealer to resolve this issue. They resolved several issues to what they believed resolved the issue of the vehicle turning on off. That didn't resolve the issue. My vehicle now is worse it turns off/on while driving accelerating or decelerating. It turns the radio on/off and gives me the same errors codes. Its life threatening as I almost got into a accident jumping onto the free way June 1014, my vehicle turned off and would not turn on on the free way entrance and a vehicle from behind was about to hit me. My vehicle is un safe for ,me and my family keeps turning on/off and I have taken it to Chevrolet dealer 3 times and they do not know what is wrong. Life threatening issues!!.

Anti theft system killed engine on car would not start, radio flickered on and off lost sound and display have had issue with radio many times since put display on voltage and noticed it showed 12. 8 to 15. 9 volts when this occured . Definte issue some where and noticed the last time this occured steering got tight. This needs to be researched and a fix provided. Dealer can not duplicate when there also have had car lock itself.
