"The valve cover had to be pulled off (along with other parts) in order to replace all the gaskets in order to stop the coolant leak. A third problem in this system related to recall on it and it needed the repair under the recall" "Two problems: Overflow reservoir developed a leak at a seam a point where two conduits connect was leaking.

"Water pump had to be replaced warranty covered no cost to owner" "Water pump was leaking and had to be replaced" "leaking and had to be replaced under warranty" Two weeks later I received a recall notice on water pump problems" "The water pump failed and I had it replaced. "Water pump was covered by a special warranty" "The engine over heated and we ended up needing a new engine and heads and a new turbo" you have to take it to the Chevy dealer (65 miles away for me) to have the sensor replaced" says it was overheated when it actually is not, due to faulty sensor. "Overheating to the point that vehicle had to be towed to repair facility" Some kind of water hose was bad, and the car is currentl" This was followed by a message that coolant was leaking and that I needed to put the car in idle.Had the car towed to the dealer. "Message came on that A/C was off because engine was too hot. Subsequently to these repairs an adjacent cooling system part also failed" "Two hoses and the connector to which they were attached failed with serious loss of coolant resulting in overheating. "High pressure coolant hose leaking multiple times causing cylinder head to warp and crack." "Have taken to repair shop 2 times and I'm ready to take back a 3rd time, not sure why there is a leak and/Or bad thermostat but definitely a leak in the cooling system" "repaired leaking water pump for the second time faulty thermostat also replaced" (2011 Chevrolet Cruze LTZ 1.4-L 4 Cyl turbo) There was a leak and the engine was not able to stay cool" "This is what caused the engine to overheat. "RECALL - DEALER SAID NO LEAK - CHECKEDONE WEEK LATER AND ANTI-FREEZE ON FLOOR5 AND LEVEL LOW - WATER PUMP WAS REPLACED UNDER RECALL" This time was a block where heater connected, smell was evident in the car." "It was the second time we had coolant leaks, the first was years ago with the water pump which was covered by the power train warranty. No hoses were bad or replaced - it was all the poor seal from using cheap thin-wire spring clamps." With the 2nd leak, I replaced all single spring clamps with good screw-down constriction clamps. "more nuisance though loss of coolant caused the car to be overheated twice (this is AFTER the turbocharge incident and so did not cause the turbo problems.) Cause was the use of cheap clamps causing slow leaks. Dealership(Travers) and repair shop owned by the same person. On second repair(3days later) correct hose was installed incorrectly causing more leakage and overheating but this time cylinderhead was warped/cracked and needed to be replaced.
