CarComplaints.com Notes: In many ways, the 2012 Cruze continues the legacy of its predecessor. It's a legacy of sluggish transmissions and coolant leaks, but it's still a legacy.
On the flip-side, there's more concerns about brake problems.
However, there were far more Cruze vehicles sold for the 2012 model year so we'll give it our "Beware of this Clunker" badge rather than the "Avoid Like the Plague."
The A/C in this car has never been as cold as other cars no matter how many times I have had the refrigerant level checked, but I have noticed in other cars the radiator fan stays on, but in this stupid car it cycles on and off every few seconds so if you wire up a switch to the radiator fan and make it stay on it will actually make the A/C get way colder like it should! Also in the winter months this tiny little engine struggles to provide any heat!
