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."

2012 Chevrolet Cruze. Consumer writes in regards to water pump leakage. The consumer stated the water pump was repaired and began to leak again the same day
There was a recall on my 2012 Chevy Cruze. I got a recall notice but never did receive notice that the parts were in. However I had at the dealer having an oil change. I told him about it. It was for the brake micro switch. He said they would replace they had the part. This was on 11/14/13. I had an accident today 10/15/14. I turned into a parking place. I applied the brake but it didn't work. Car jumped the curb and ended up on top of a light maker at the library where I was parking. It was accelerating instead of braking. I applied the brake but no braking only acceleration. I want to file this complainant. VIN # of Cruze [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
