Driving Chevrolet cruz(2012) and brakes failed causing to rear end another vehicle. Certified auto mechanic examined and said failure of master cylinder. Car was towed due to lack of brakes. Other driver filed a claim against my insurance and stated injury suffered. Thus occurred on interstate 460 w. Roanoke county va.

The brake pedal in my Cruze will not let you push it down. It feels that there is something blocking it which will not allow you to brake when needed. The first time this happened was in 2015 in which we learned of a recall (13v360000) for the microswitch in the power brake vacuum pipe assembly. We took it to a Chevrolet dealership & was told the switch was replaced. In 2016 the same thing happened, while accelerating someone pulled out in front of me & when I went to stop there was no brakes because the pedal would not push. No accident occurred as I was able to avoid the other vehicle. Took the car back to dealership where no one there was able to get it to happen again so therefore was told nothing was wrong, but I didnt push the brakes hard enough in July 2017, while backing out of a parking spot, went to stop to put the car into drive, there was again no brakes. We took the vehicle back again to the dealership because once again the brakes were not working & the brake pedal had to be stomped on to get it to even move a little bit. Was told that the master cylinder had gone out in the car and that the brake booster may also need to be replaced as well. We then had the master cylinder replaced. That did not fix the problem. So then we had the brake booster replaced. We picked up the vehicle only to find out when accelerating but need to stop there is again no brakes. The car is back at the dealership who is now stating that it could possibly be the break booster check value but are not 100% sure that this will fix the problem but did state that if the original recall had been done that we would not be having any of the problems we are having now. I informed them that the recall was done at another chevy dealership. So after almost 2 years $2,500 later we still have a vehicle without breaks we are unable to drive that is in the shop once again.

After changing oil filter, oil sprayed in engine compartment approximately 10 minutes into drive, causing a fire in the engine compartment. All occupants were safe, but the damage is expensive. Wiring harnesses, as well as master cylinder were melted. The top mounted filter is a pleated cartridge that snaps into a threaded plastic oil filter cap. A blue o-ring, included with the filter, slips over the plastic oil filter cap, past the threads. The issue seems to that two "grooves" exist after the threads towards the end by the flange. If the o-ring is placed in the wrong location (I. E. All the way to the end) this provides an inadequate seal, posing a fire hazard as described above. Correct procedure is to apply the blue o-ring on the second to last groove immediately after the threads. Basically, if after tightening the oil filter assembly the blue o-ring is visible, it's in the wrong location. Source: local dealer. This is not related to the plastic shield modification advised in a previous service bulletin from gm regarding the 2011-12 model years.
