Q: Electric/Engine problems
Hello I have a 2009 Chevy Cruize with some problem to be specific sometime i have electrical problems of the sort that my left hand size speakers don't work one day and the next day they do. When the speakers don't work even the sound from the blinkers is not present if i go left or right. And another problem is the car has sometime a lack of power in the sense that i feel that the air to fuel ratio is not optimum so the car loses power but as for the previous problem they are not persistent some times the car works perfect other times it dose not and as far as I see the weather play no part in the problems.
My car has 44500 miles.
My car has a manual transmission.
