Steering Lag/Twitch
2012 Chevrolet Cruze
This problem may be covered under warranty. Ask your Chevrolet dealer.
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."

2012 Chev Cruise LT -
Local Welland Ontario Chevrolet dealer unable to fix. In twice for same issue. During straight line driving at pretty much any speed above 60 kph the steering is slow to react. It's almost like it has a dead spot when making corrections. Correction in straight line driving always seems to be to the right. Just a small movement of the wheel nothing happens then it grabs which causes a noticeable twitch for driver and passengers. This car started this at about 20,000 kilometers.
I think they have a lag problem between the steering and the servo motor that controls the steering. GM does do not have a fix for it. It should be investigated. It is very annoying and tiring during long road trips.
