Cruze Chevy's newest entry into compact cars takes safety to an all new level and ridicules the status quo set by the other manufacturers.

Default my engine fan is running all the time also

My 2012 Cruze fan is running all the time(and it's loud), It will go off every now and then
and then come back on.
I have 43,000 miles on it.
Does anyone know if this type of thing is still covered under warranty?


Thanks, papaw

Do you have the ac on? Electric fans run all the time with the ac on. Maybe the radiator is plugged and the engine is running warm so they run more.

UPDATE....




Listen up...


I had the same thing happen to my 2012 cruze...
Had 43,000 miles at the time.
Was told that it was not covered...... but wait...


Did a little research..
"IT IS COVERED" Any code that comes up about your thermostat, or
thermostat housing is COVERED under the
5 year, 100,000 mile power train warranty..


Tell the dealer that and they will fix it at NO charge...


Mine is back to good now..

Default Thermostat wasn't covered

I took my 2012 Chevy Cruze to the dealership because of the thermostat and they told me that it wasn't covered on my power train warranty. This is clearly a know issue and would love it if a recall was called.

This is a common problem....i surmise that if you had the codes checked, you would get P0597/P0598--has everything to do with chevy switching to a thermal housing instead of a simple thermostat. If you look online for that code you will see a lot of chevy's are having problems with this. I'm currently having this problem and "patiently" waiting for some Chevy Rep to actually contact me. I have to pass a emissions test for my Chevy this month, but I can't pass while experiencing these codes.

My 2014 Cruze fan is running all the time(and it's loud), It will go off every now and then
and then come back on.
I have 95,000 miles on it and I have hit the 5 year warranty mark. I contacted the dealer and they said that if it is my cooling system that it is not covered under the power train warranty. I now see in one of the threads that since it is probably a thermostat issue, it is covered by the power train warranty. Is this true? If so, I was misinformed and I missed out on using my warranty to cover the repair. Can anyone let me know what I can do about this. Thanks.

i would think the cooling system would be covered since it kind of keeps the power train at safe temps
