Summary

14773 - special coverage. Some 2011-2012 model year chevrolet cruze vehicles equipped with a 1.8l engine may be missing a shift-cable grommet at the transmission end due to contact with engine coolant from a leaking thermostat housing. If present, the driver may notice an irregular or loose feel to the automatic transmission gear-selector lever. Shifting gears may be hard, and the lever could bind or could lock in one position. Dealers are to inspect for a thermostat housing leak. If a leak is found the engine thermostat housing and the shifter cable adjuster body should be replaced.

Owners of these vehicles have filed 330 complaints in the transmission category.
