My 2011 Chevy Cruze Eco has been easy to work on.

I regapped all 4 spark plugs.

The water pump started leaking, but that was replaced under the manufacture warranty. I would have done it myself otherwise. Not a particularly easy task, but doable. One of the engine mounts needs to be removed.

I changed the tranny oil with Pennzoil Synchromesh.

I adjusted the rear brake drums.

Changing oil was easy as well. Need to be careful not to spill as the filter accessible from above near the turbo & also the aero tray can hold oil if spilled.

Overall there have been some issues, but nothing an amateur mechanic can't handle. The engine bay is real easy to maneuver around in.
Good to know. I am considering that car for my next purchase.
