2016.5 cruze premier. 300 miles on it. At idle and at idle in traffic this thing seems to misfire. I was in traffic this week and it almost stalled a few times it got so bad. I can feel the misfires on the floor boards yet it throws no lights.

Anyone else have this?

Are you certain you are not picking up on the 'Start/Stop'?
It operates above 40f.

See if the tach drops to '0' when you sense the 'misfire'.

Like the above poster it sounds like you just discovered the start/stop feature. As soon as your car comes to a stop, it will turn off then start right back up after you release the brake.

I don't know why salespersons are not telling new buyers about this.

Canada boys. Winnipeg. Minus temps when this happened. And no. Auto stop did not light up and the tach never went to 0.

Also of note. My dad has a 2015 malibu with start stop. So i know exactly what to expect when mine uses the feature.

Ok then another Canadian here can say that the auto start stop hasn't engaged since probably October sometime

Other than crappy gas (I use Shell 91) my non-mechanic self has no other suggestions...

If you tap the gas just a bit or plop it in neutral, does it still do it?
