There are two main problems I've seen them time and time again ( on YouTube sure not great credibility but hear me out) the intake manifolds are not tightened tight enough come lose and start making the motor shudder misfire losses power and then the coolant line t isn't secured good enough and burst from high pressure I understand wanting to use plastic over metal its cheaper but aluminum would have been more reliable then after that the intake manifold causes the coolant line to burst at the t which causes your head gasket to blow which in turn kills your turbo and possibly if driven ( if it's possible to drive mind you I was almost hit twice just trying to get off the road ) kills your catalytic converters and that's a complete engine failure that could have been prevented

When i turn the A/C on, it appears a message on the screen that says A/C off due to high engine temperature. The car is losing coolant without external leak. A mechanic performed a cold pump test to the cooling system and no external leak was found. After that it was performed a compression test at a shop to each cylinder, finding that there's a bad head gasket. My car only has 70.000 miles and it has a bad head gasket already. This can cause an accident because when your engine is overheating, you should pull over your car as soon as possible to avoid any serious damage on your car. Besides that, the losing of coolant should cause a fire on the engine. There are recalls for the same vehicle but not for the 2015 Cruze and I have read lot of complaints about the same issue.

I had the water outlet assembly repaired by Mike Castrucci Chevrolet on 02/05/21. I had it repaired again by Car X on 04/05/2023. Car X said that Mike Castrucci Chevrolet tightened the screw on the part and stripped it. This could have caused me to buy a $2,000 head gasket. This part was recalled on the 2011-2014 Chevrolet Cruze. Mine is a 2015 Chevrolet Cruze purchased in August 2015. No warning lamps told me of this problem. Onstar did not detect it.

It shakes and stutters while driving off and on. If it-€™s super cold outside it may not even start. When sitting idle it-€™ll spit and sputter and periodically backfire. When going to take off from a stop sign there-€™s lag or it won-€™t take off at all even floored. I-€™m getting milky oil so I-€™m getting condensation from somewhere. This trickle effect all starts off my MAF sensor and has progressively gotten worse. I-€™ve had the MAF, o2 sensor, turbo valve, spark plugs, battery(s) changed all trying to fix this issue and 2 years later I-€™m still fighting with it. Yesterday while heading home I couldn-€™t go over 45, and it would stutter and feel like your driving on rubble strips, when I got home it smelled like something was burning, popped the hood and the dipstick showed -€œblack-€ oil but in the oil cap there the milky oil in and around the cap as well as my fan being SUPER loud after it-€™s shut off.

Unknown- 2015 Chevy Cruze - the regulators in the automatic windows keep breaking- I have replaced regulators 3 times- and the two front windows will not go up or down now-I just fixed the passengers side window about a month ago and its broken again.- the clock does not keep time correctly- had a coolant leak twice - and the tires seem to lose tread pretty quickly- replaced tires a few years ago- does not have very good traction control- very difficult to see with glares no matter if its freshly cleaned-nothing but problems with this car- I usually love my Chevy's but this car is a lemon- as soon as I paid it off all this started happening- and I can't afford another car at this point.

87,000 miles on the car. 6 incidences of coolant system failure within the last 2 years/3,000 miles. This car costs me over $1000 in repairs every 3 months. I have replaced the water outlet, water pump (several times), cracked reservoir, and camshaft cover failure (this is covered by a warranty, thankfully).

after driving for approx 5 or 10 min, light white smoke was coming from exhaust pipe but went away quickly and never did it again. This happened only 1 time and only 15-30 min before the head gasket blew, causing the engine to blow - No other signs of a blown head gasket happened until after it blew - I was on a 2 lane hwy (my direction - 4 lanes total) surrounded by diesel trucks and luckily had a clearing that allowed me to get over safely but it was very dangerous

Coolant leaking, was repaired. Now coolant mixed into oil causing overheating and a blown head gasket. Car now needs major repairs under 100,000 miles. I see recalls for 2013-2014 Models but none for 2015.

The thermostat keeps cracking. The temperature gage does not work. Says that the engine is too hot and turns the AC off. Replaced the thermostat several times in the past 5 years due to cracking and coolent spilled all over the road and left me stranded twice. Now the sensors have broken and the AC will not turn on and the fan runs all the time. Check engine light doesnt come on until after the thermostat cracks and leaks all of the coolent out. This needs to be recalled!

Service Engine indicator came on with message "Engine Hot, AC OFF". This is a 2015 Cruze with the 1.4L engine. This engine has the same water pump as previous models (2011 -2014). General Motors issued a Special Coverage Adjustment-Engine Coolant Leak from Water Pump, Bulletin # 14371B, in January 2015. GM is extending warranty period for 10 years or 150,000 miles. GM is making repairs at no cost to current owners of 2011-2014 Chevy Cruze. This extended warranty coverage and repairs should include 2015 Chvey Cruze owners. Again, the 2015 model with the 1.4L engine has the same water pump and all the same failure symptoms indicatea failed water pump. GM has identified this as a design flaw by issuing the Special Coverage Adjustment-Engine Coolant Leak from Water Pump, Bulletin # 14371B. There is the risk of engine overheat and sudden loss of engine power/ seizing that will occur with a loss of coolant while driving.
