    Engine Shield after recall

    Picked our Cruze up today after the recall was done and this is what they did to the engine shield.

    From the last 2 pics they really hack the heck out of it. Doesn't even look like they left even half the shield.

    Why is this recall done? - Is it also included with the 2013 1.4's?- Thanks.

    Wow, that looks like crap. I haven't got mine done yet it hopes they replace with a new modified shield, not some hack job.

    This is a well known and well documented issue. There are lots of other threads about it.

    Start complaining, and maybe there will be a new shield designed and made for those of us who complain enough...

    Learn from the mistakes of others, so when you err it can be in new and interesting ways.

    My suggestion is just to not get it done. My dealer said as long as I don't put it on order it won't get done. He also wrote on the work order just to be sure it didn't happen. My shield is clean and I always clean my engine when I wash the car in the summer so i'm not worried about anything. Even if the car did catch on fire it would be impossible for them to prove this caused it.

    and after 31,000 miles mine has never been back to the dealer and hopefully it will remain that way.

    That's just sad,my 2012 was built in July so it is one of the last 2012's and it has the horrible hack job.Chevy should be ashamed to call that customer service.
