Description of the problem	I bought my 2011 chevy cruze december 31, 2011 and have had problems with the transmission ever since. I took a trip 06. 2011 6 months after i had my car and went to accelerate and had nothing total transmission gone. They had my car for over 30 days and i still have problems. The transmission is choppy and erratic. When i am stopped or nearly stopped and accelerate to go again, the transmission just revs as if it is in neutral. This is not safe - make me a prime candidate for a rear-end collision. When traveling at cruising speed of 50-60mph, it is choppy and shifting when you would not expect it to shift. When coming to a fast stop, it clunks and then lunges - so firm pressure on the brake pedal is necessary not to hit the car in front of me. I have had the car into the chevy dealership 5 times now and am told that since the chevy mechanic cannot duplicate the problems and there are no lights on there is nothing that can be done. And it is currently in the shop right now for the above problems for the 5th time.
