GM has announced a sales halt for 1.4 liter turbo Chevrolet Cruze models from the 2013 and 2014 model year. The sales stop on the Chevy Cruze was announced on Friday morning for undisclosed reasons.
The Chevrolet Cruze compact car is currently recognized as GM's global best-seller. As a matter of fact, the affected 1.4 liter turbo model represents 55 percent of all Chevy Cruze sales. Not only did the American automaker abruptly put a voluntary stop on the best selling trim of its best selling car, but car buyers are particularly alarmed by the news due to how closely it follows a very controversial ignition recall affecting as many as 2.6 million vehicles.

It's a really bad sign when GM tells their dealers to stop selling the Chevy Cruze.

What the heck is this @chevrolet cruze thing about?? Dealers told to immediately stop sales of 1.4-liter turbo model...w/no reason given.
