    Just received and read my 2015 Annual CR Auto Issue. I know that the forum is loaded with CR fans so here goes. The CTD was 1 of only 2 cars in the subcompact and compact categories that received the highest owner satisfaction rating (42 models total). The other was the Prius Four (55 mph...

    Just thought to let you all know that Consumer Reports released its November issue, and the 1.4L turbo Cruze receives a -143% negative score on reliability, ranked second all the way at the bottom of the chart after Fiat 500L.

    I was surprised to see how harsh Consumer Reports was on the Cruze. Actually, I should say, "I was surprised how inaccurate they were." Any thoughts on the quality of Consumer Reports or why there is a bias? thanks, Joe

    I know there are not many Consumer Reports fans on the forum. Regardless, I am going to post the latest reliability data that CR complied this year form the 1.1 million car owners who participated in the reliability survey. The 1.8 is a problematic car.

  8. Gen1 1.4L Turbo
    I saw that the 1.8L Cruze was listed as Chevrolet's most unreliable car for 2013. It will lose it's recommendation, but does anyone subscribe to the online version that has seen the results for the 1.4 L? I'm assuming that the coolant leaks will hurt it since they are weighted a little more in...

    Title says it all. For what it's worth, they are reporting reliability of 'average' for 2012 models. :eusa_clap: http://www.consumerreports.org/cro/chevrolet/cruze/eco-4-cyl.htm (subscription required) Squeaks/Rattles, Body Hardware, and Audio System were the only areas that have a 'very...
  12. Gen1 Wheels, Tires, Brakes, & Suspension
    The November issue of Consumer Reports has an article on testing passenger car tires. For this test, they used the Chevy Cruze as the test platform for all of the tires tested. I know that some here think poorly of the publication. But I think that since the Cruze was the test platform, the...
