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.
To be fair, the number of complaints about the cooling system are way down versus the 2011 model which led to a class-action lawsuit.
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."

rear defogger grid line burnt up behind 3rd brake light
You can really tell how GM cut production costs for this car via inferior craftsmanship. This is the least severe problem I've had with it, but definitely another worth adding to my long and regularly growing list.
remove brake light, clean burn residue, defogger repair kit
