 Description of the problemThe following issue only occurs once the vehicle has been driven for 15+ miles and is "warmed up". When on a straight road at highway speeds there is an issue with minor corrections to the steering in order to maintain position in the lane. The steering wheel sticks when attempting to make these minor corrections, resulting in additional strength being used in order to move the wheel. The wheel always moves with this additional pressure, but sometimes it results in an overcorrection causing the driver to have to correct in the other direction. I have researched this issue and found hundreds of different cruze owners complaining about the same problem on various websites, with varying degrees of dealership assistance in attempting to fix this problem. I have an appointment to bring my vehicle into the dealer on february 22nd, but the service representative i spoke with stated there were no technical bulletins or other guidance that he could find regarding this problem. If, as a fairly quick internet search indicates, that there are hundreds, if not perhaps thousands of cruze drivers with a similar problem, and keeping in mind that steering is probably the second most important auto system superseded only by braking, then perhaps this problem deserves formal review by the nhtsa.

  • What is Recall?

    A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
  • What is Failure?

    Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
  • What is Defect?

    Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
