    Intermittent Electrical Issues

    Also, I can say this issue does seem to be related to colder temperatures (even though I can't say that for sure) as it didn't really act up during the summer.

    Bra or no bra?

    I have a bra for my 2006 Monte Carlo; only use for long highway trips, which are very rare. As long as a bra is used properly and taken care of, it can work great. Problem with them is that the majority of people buy one and just slap it on the car and never take it off, thinking that will do...

    Recall for Brake Problem

    Yeah I can see why; a lot of very technical, specific steps to perform the replacement.

    Intermittent Electrical Issues

    After a pretty long period with no real problems with this, the issue is starting to become more frequent again as of the past few weeks and especially the past few days. So this morning I go out to leave and (a) the car will not unlock with the fob; I have to manually insert the key into the...

    Recall for Brake Problem

    I finally got a recall notice for this problem. However, GM states in the letter that the parts for the fix are not yet available so they will send another notice out when they are, which will probably be another 2+ months.

    Uhh, the new guy! (Achmeds' Voice)

    What effect does this type of upgrade have on fuel mileage? The additional power would be nice and I'd be interested in doing something performance-wise but, since the Cruze is my daily driver and I have a second "performance" car already, I would only do it to the Cruze if it's something that...

    Uhh, the new guy! (Achmeds' Voice)

    Welcome to the Forum. I've got a few upgrades, or modifications (mostly appearance), I'd like to do to mine as well but haven't got around to yet.

    WeatherTech Floor Mats

    Good to know! Haven't bought a set for mine yet but they've been a consideration for a while now.

    window tint

    The windows are tinted from the manufacturer but for cars it's usually not the dark privacy tint like trucks and SUV's get. There is tint there but it's more of a solar or UV barrier than a dark privacy tint. I have 18% tint on my Monte Carlo and plan on having the Cruze tinted with 18% as...

    Moonroof Screen Vibration

    I get intermittent vibration from my moonroof screen when it's in the back (open) position while driving. I always leave my screen open so it's always in that position. Does anyone else have this issue? Obviously I've thought about stuffing something small enough into the slot to stop the...

    Aftermarket headlights

    There are suppliers in the country but pretty much all aftermarket headlights are going to be made outside the country. That's why they're usually so cheap cost-wise compared to factory OEM headlights; aftermarket quality is usually so so and more than not they have leak issues due to cheaper...

    Our lil' oil burner

    Welcome to the Forum. Glad to see you picked a Chevrolet over a few other manufacturers. I myself looked into the Dart and Focus a little bit but the Cruze's design is better inside and out and the car is just better overall in my opinion; sounds like others see the same. Keep us updated on...

    Fuel Mileage

    My best fuel mileage to date is 35.6 mpg; that was on premium fuel and 95% highway driving. My overall average during ownership is currently at 30.5 mpg.

    Premium Fuel?

    Just a bit of an update. I have gone back to running regular for the past 8+ fill-ups; just acquiring more data so I can better determine an average. Honestly I can't say if the premium is a benefit right now since the numbers seem to overlap quite a bit.

    Console armrest too short

    Honestly I wasn't even aware that the center console lid slides forward. I usually like to rest my right arm on the center console and shifter knob and the car's center console configuration is a bit awkward to do so. Maybe it'll be more comfortable with the console lid moved forward the extra...

    Recall for Brake Problem

    Yep I see where you have it, thanks Cuda. Doesn't appear to be an all-out loss of braking but rather a possible reduced braking response that requires the brakes to be pressed harder. I'll be awaiting the recall notice; something I'd like to get taken care of sooner than later.
