With the announcement of GM discontinuing the Cruze, I began to wonder which GM products currently use the GEN 2 1.4L LE2 engine?

While GM appears to have addressed the piston issues with early 2016-2017 engines, if they discontinue the car, does that mean that possibly more problems might go unaddressed?

I believe the Buick Encore uses the new 1.4L, but are there others? You used to be able to see this information on GM Powertrain's website, but it appears that this level of information for 2018/2019 models is not published or linked to the powertrain site anymore.

Thoughts?

I thought I read earlier this year that the Sonic was going to be obsoleted, yet I see the 2019 on Chevrolet.com. I think that's built in the same factory as the Bolt, which they are keeping, so that means the Sonic might live on?

Seems weird as those production numbers have always been lower than the Cruze.

My thoughts, and just a hunch here, is that there's big electrified plans for a large factory such as lordstown. But management isn't going to announce the end of one vehicle line and the introduction of another in the same day/week.
