CarComplaints.com Notes: What’s that smell – it’s a tad sweet with a tinge of chemical toxicity? If you own a 2011 Cruze it’s probably a coolant leak. It’s a widespread and notorious problem for the car and is the subject of a class-action lawsuit filed in the state of New York. And that’s not the only problem 2011 owners face…
Many say the 2011 model year suffers from a throttle lag that is probably due to a fauly electronic throttle control. The problem is signifigant enough that some owners say they are too scared to drive their cars. Those that do get behind the wheel often say their transmission isn’t shifting properly and problems start occuring as early as 15,000 miles.
All of this leads us to say you’re probably better off without this car’s headaches (they’re probably chemically-induced anyway).
love the Cruze Eco 6 spd manual. exceeding mileage rating. several trips at 46 mpg and averaging 40 at 70 mph flat interstate. My only dislike is steering, wanders at highway speeds as if driving in a crosswind, ONLY there is no wind. No grooves on road and air pressure balanced and to factory specs. Looks like I'm drunk when driving.
