Chevrolet Cruze automatic

I know that GM now does not officially approve Chevrolet Cruze automatic for toad 4 wheel down.

In fact when it was approved in the beginning of the Cruze, did someone on the forum experienced real automatic transaxle issues, or did GM simply withdraw the approval just in case there would be problems eventually.

So for thoses who toad 4 wheels down an automatic Cruze, my real question is if I would like to tow a Cruze automatic that is no more garantee by GM is there a major risk of transaxle issues? I want to figure the odds having an issue to make an opinion.

  • My recollection from reading about this subject was that people bought the the vehicle, set it up to tow, and damaged the tranny. Reportedly GM actually replaced some of the vehicles with the same vehicle with a standard tranny and others with a different GM vehicle. Based
    So based on failures the ability to tow the car was changed. Don't believe any are tolerable without damage. I would not try it.
