I rented one of those on a recent business trip. They deserve to catch fire.

The following IS NOT an endorsement.

I'm curious. What didn't you like about it?

I just bought a 2012 Cruze and it does just what was advertised. It's fun to drive, easy to park and maneuver and gets great gas mileage. I like the look and the interior, while not spacious [at least for the back seat occupants] is functional. Sure, it's down on horsepower, but I didn't buy it for horsepower. I've had no mechanical issues at all. My only complaint is that the RH blind spot seems to be larger than the previous vehicles I've owned.

I guess i am use to my 2005 4 cylinder Malibu. The car i rented was ruptured turtle slow and had rattles all over the place. The door lock did not work and i got the keys stuck in the ignition and could not get them out. When i dropped the car off i complained and the attendant stated he had similar complaints about the car.
