## What is wrong

General Motors \(GM\) is recalling certain model year 2013 and 2014 Chevrolet Cruze vehicles equipped with manual transmissions \(MF3/MR5\) and manufactured January 24, 2013, through August 1, 2013.  On the affected vehicles, the right front half shaft may fracture and separate.


## What can happen

If the half shaft fractures and separates while driving, the vehicle would lose power and coast to a stop.  If a vehicle with a fractured half shaft is parked without the parking brake applied, the vehicle could move unexpectedly.  Either condition increases the risk of a crash.


## The remedy

General Motors has notified owners.  Dealers will replace the half shaft assembly, free of charge.  The safety recall began on October 15, 2013.  Owners may contact General Motors at 1\-800\-521\-7300.  This is General Motors campaign number 13276.


## Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1\-888\-327\-4236 \(TTY 1\-800\-424\-9153\), or go to www.safercar.gov.
