2014 Chevrolet Cruze 1lt Automatic Blue Book Value

2014 Chevrolet Cruze Review: A Bland Cramped Sedan With Old Technology

The 2014 Chevrolet Cruze is a compact sedan with a price range of $7,244 to $11,452. A combination of high ownership costs, a small cabin, and an outdated infotainment system are reasons to avoid the car.

There are nice interior materials for the price, the interior is quieter than other compact cars, and there's a fuel-efficient diesel engine available.

Passenger space is poor with cramped rear seats. The transmission is rough, and there are some engine problems.

New features for the 2014 model year include a diesel engine, and additional exterior paint colors including red hot, rainforest green metallic, blue ray metallic, and tungsten metallic.

The 2014 Chevy Cruze ranks low in the compact car class based on owner reviews. Chevrolet doesn't do anything to stand out as a leader in the competitive compact car market.

The car is a pleasure to drive.

The vehicle rides very smoothly, gets great gas mileage, and is a great investment.

It is a reliable vehicle.

It is great on gas. It is a stylish car. It is easy driving.

It's not catered towards families of 5 or more. The back seat gets cramped with 3 people.

It's a quality car. I love the comfort and it just felt like the car for me as soon as I sat in it. Everything is set up in just the right places and it has a lot of nice features. I don't like that it's hard to see out the driver's side window because of the door frame position.

They should know it's a dependable card.

I love that my car has great pick up on the highway. It's small yet sporty. I love the design and interior.

Fuel efficient and affordable

I like the fuel economy the car gets. Makes it affordable to travel. Also the purchase price was very affordable for the quality of car you get.

Negative Owner Reviews

Great first care not long term reliable.

Transmission issues. Have had over $4000 of work needed at 100,000 miles. The turbo needs to be replaced that is a $1800 job and the catalytic converter needs to be replaced that is a $1800 job as well. So I wouldn't say it is very reliable. It is a great first car. It is very comfortable.

I really do not like my car. The plastic it is made of is cheap.

The driver is window broken, the plastic part in the window where the window goes up and down broke so it had to be wired up until I have money to fix it. I hydroplane any time it rains, its small and hard to get in and out of vehicle, I have weird issues whenever I get gas in my car it makes a weird noise when it starts up.

Chevy cruzes are horrible.

I had to get a reset on the computer twice, electrical issues, fuel pump issues, within the first three years. I bought it brand new 5 miles on it. Once the three year warranty was up all the problems came back. Stalls out constantly does not get enough fuel. Not worth the money at all.

Chevy is trash go with Honda.

Drive time made my payments 206.72 every 2 weeks and will not cover any oil changes/maintenance even though I pay for it. The Chevy is stock, does not really come with anything great or exciting, charged me 26,000 for it, and refuses to let me get out of it, even though I tried to return it before the 30 days, not very satisfied.

Expensive and extensive maintenance.

I had extensive and expensive issues with the cooling system in this car. It was completely replaced and I only experience more issues from there. Once one system failed it seems like everything under the hood followed. Too much spent on repairs for the value/quality of vehicle.

Crappy Cruze don't buy ever.

Issues with overheating. Most parts made out of plastic. Very pricey to fix and car has no power at all. Great when first purchased after couple years issues start happening.

Do not by a Cruze, unless you want a headache.

The car seats are small and uncomfortable, the car shifts really hard that the car lurches. The car idles at stop lights like it is a big diesel truck. The coil packs burn out and are expensive to fix. It is too tiny, and I still owe too much for what this broken car is worth.

The car is pretty good on gas but does have issues due to recalls.

Constant problems with idling and rpm. When the car idles it has the tendency for the rpm's to bounce around and the car will die. I was informed it was due to a recall but even after it was "fixed" it began again. I was told it was a common problem.

What Problems Does the 2014 Chevrolet Cruze Have?

The 2014 Chevy Cruze is a car buyers should avoid since there are more complaints than the 2013 and 2015 models. Overall, the Cruze has a similar number of issues compared to other compact cars in the same price range. The 2014 Cruze problems range from overheating engines and power loss to infotainment system glitches and malfunctioning turn signals.

Engine problems, including check engine lights, are the most common issue. Replacing the PCV valve and cover will often solve the problem, but diagnosing the issue requires using an OBD-II scan tool to read the codes.

Electrical problems, such as a loss of power while driving are also brought up by owners. Replacing battery cables usually fixes the problem, since corrosion on the cables leads to a loss of power.

Cooling problems, and overheating, are also mentioned by owners. Replacing the head, valves, or water pump will solve the problem, but the average cost is over $1,600.

There are seven recalls, average for a car from 2014. Recalls include the half shafts, transmission adjuster cables, air bags, engine block heater, steering gear, and the key can be removed while the car is in park. Most serious are the half-shafts and keys, since they can lead to accidents and roll-away situations.

What are the Prices, Models & Specs?

The 2014 Chevy Cruze is more expensive than other compact cars, with a price range of $7,244 to $11,452, depending on the model and mileage. When new, the price range was $17,520 to $24,985. Depreciation is faster than average, dropping 55% in value over the first five years.

LS is the entry-level model with 16-inch steel wheels, cloth seating, power windows, remote keyless entry, and a six-speaker stereo system with satellite radio, CD, Bluetooth, AUX, and USB connectivity.
1LT is next in the lineup and adds 16-inch alloy wheels, OnStar, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, cruise control, and body-colored mirrors.
Eco focuses on efficiency with a smaller 1.4-liter engine, is 200 pounds lighter, has narrower tires on 17-inch wheels, and additional aerodynamic components for decreased drag.
2LT adds luxury with leather seating, 17-inch wheels, a 6-way power driver's seat, seven-inch MyLink infotainment system, improved suspension, and four-wheel disc brakes.
LTZ is the flagship model with 18-inch wheels, upgraded interior trim, rearview camera, keyless ignition, automatic climate control, fog lamps, and parking sensors.
Diesel is a version with a 2.0L diesel engine, and has everything found on the 1LT model, with the addition of leather seating.

How Long Will the 2014 Chevrolet Cruze Last?

A properly maintained 2014 Chevy Cruze should last about 200,000 miles, which is an average lifespan for a compact car. Maintenance costs are higher than competitors. Repair Pal estimates them to be about $523 per year.

It has very little problems. I have had this car for almost a year and the only time I have taken it to the shop was when it needed an oil change. Nothing has ever broke on it.

I have not had major problems with the car. There is a whirling sounds coming from the belt but this can easily be changed.

Yes, it is very reliable. I haven't had any problems in the past year and a half I have had the vehicle. It is a very good car.

I have had it just about a year and only had to replace a tube which had corroded but apart from that a very reliable car.

Very reliable. I have not experienced any issues with it. I get great gas mileage and have very little worry about any upkeep for the vehicle.

Very reliable with no problems other than normal things like air in tires, lights need changing once in awhile. Other than that I have no complaints.

Never, had any issues or problems only had to do simple and minor repairs as well as oil change and detail and washing the inside and out.

As mentioned earlier I had the fuel injection go out but thankfully it occurred during the warranty. I have maintained the oil change and general upkeep so hope to keep for 10 more years.

Teiggierre D on June 25, 2021

Worst car I have owned, I would never buy another Chevy again.

I have had multiple engine problems, electrical problems, recalls, and numerous other minor issues with my car. The check engine light came on every time I was due for an oil change. My car also had issues where the car would stutter when starting after filling with gas. The intake manifold, catalytic converter and o2 sensors all had to be replaced at the same time to fix the engine/gas issue. Oil changes are unbelievably expensive with the higher mileage. When my car wouldn't start due to an electrical issue, it also caused all my electrical screens to blink on and off while driving. I was told that the manufacturer knew it was an issue but didn't consider it a safety issue so they wouldn't issue a recall.

Allison V on June 25, 2021

Reliable car for first car purchase.

Side detection is easily broken because of sensor placement. Car is reliable, drives well and very comfortable. Decent amount of space. Large trunk and nice entertainment features. Large touch screen center console. Radio controls on steering wheel. Bluetooth connection.

Emma N on June 25, 2021

My car affordable, and durable car that makes it safe and comfortable to drive.

I have loved my Chevy Cruze since the first time that I took it for a test drive. I love the power it has behind it even though it is a four door sedan. The interior is really nice too. I love that I can plug my phone into the center console and listen to music off of my phone. I love that I can Bluetooth my phone to my car and call people when I am driving too. I have always been a Chevy girl and the Cruze was a perfect fit for my first car I wanted to buy.

Victoria M on June 25, 2021

Chevrolet Cruze- small but worthy.

I love this car. I previously had a Chevrolet Malibu which was a little bigger and had a sunroof. These are the two negatives of the Cruze. It also has a large blind spot but it drives great and for it being so small it does hold a lot of stuff. I am easily able to put my skis in it during the winter.

Rachel B on June 25, 2021

2014, red Chevrolet Cruze.

The car itself ran perfectly when I purchased it. However I purchased it certified pre-owned and the owners before never changed the oil so within 6 months of purchasing I had to replace the whole engine. The car also struggles to shift when the ac is on which can be troublesome as I use the highway to get to work everyday. After a load of repairs due to the lack of care the previous owners had, the car runs quite well and has excellent features. I am a rather busy person and after the repairs the car has been very reliable. I travel to and from a second residence often which is over an hour drive and it has been keeping up very well.

Shanna B on June 24, 2021

Reliable and compact Chevy.

It drives pretty smooth but can take a minute to get up to speed. A little small for a family car. It is felt sturdy & very reliable. Had one issue with the anti-theft device. It wouldn't let me start the car. It is very comfortable to sit in. I like the display options & the remote start.

Emily M on June 24, 2021

Great car. Very reliable and efficient.

Only have had a few problems and had to get new battery. It is very easy to drive. It is very reliable and comfortable. My car gets really good gas mileage. It can seat up to 5 people & has big trunk. Back up camera comes in handy. Very good in all kinds of weather and you can see all around in the car.

Laura V on June 22, 2021

Good for a while but has a lot of issues after 5 years.

For the first 5 years of owning the vehicle I really loved it. Never had any performance issues at all. Recently, I have had to replace the alternator/battery and my a/c has stopped working. This has all happened within a few months timeframe. I am disappointed because I have only put about 45,000 miles on it. However, it is a comfortable car to drive and it looks nice. Since it is a bit older it does not have as many cool features as some of the newer ones but it is overall a solid car and I still plan to keep it for a while longer.

Kayla L on June 22, 2021

Chevy Cruze, minimal problems and a reliable vehicle!

My Chevy Cruze has Bluetooth feature as well as remote start. This vehicle has been very reliable for my short drives as well as longer trips. The only issue I have had with it is the brakes, they tend to squeak even when they have been changed. I am just not having issues with a belt for the ac but that should be an easy fix. Overall I really love this car.

Samantha M on June 20, 2021

Great price for the amount of luxury you do receive.

The only real issue is the recall for the head caskets cracking on the corners. Also I have noticed that the catalytic converter is very hot and cold. Heater leather seats, I personal love my all black interior. Extremely good gas mileage, also very easy to keep clean inside and out.

Haleigh H on June 19, 2021

It is a quiet car that rides super smooth.

I have not had any major problems with my car. It is a dependable car that has decent gas mileage and rides very smooth. It is comfortable and has plenty of storage. It is nice having the sunroof and remote start. Buying a car with both of those features really makes it even more comfortable and luxurious.

Kaylin B on June 18, 2021

2014 Chevy Cruze review 2020.

I love this car! This car gets amazing gas mileage and has been really reliable. It handles corners really well. It has been the best car I have ever had. The music system in the car is amazing I love going for long rides in this car it is just an all around pretty good experience.

Kathleen R on June 17, 2021

My car. Easy to drive and looks nice.

Pretty reliable nice back up camera. Tires seem to deflate some during cold weather. Pretty good gas mileage. Easy to steer. Like the Bluetooth. Seats are pretty comfortable and has decent leg room. Trunk is spacious and nice that you can lower the back seat down.

Jon B on June 17, 2021

Good gas mileage, reliable, lack of power, and lack of tech.

The 1.4 liter four cylinder turbo lacks power climbing hills. However I also live in the Adirondacks region. The gas mileage is fairly impressive for a non hybrid vehicle. There is a lack of tech in this vehicle even for it is year it is missing a lot options that are normally included on other comparable models.

Tiffany K on June 16, 2021

Leather seats, turbo boost, good sound system, heated seats, sunroof.

Around 70,000 miles my catalytic converter started to have issues. Turns out that both had gone bad and needed to be replaced. I also had problems around the same mileage with the brakes stopping in reverse. This was a 600 dollar fix, as my car was not under warranty, and bought used. Aside from those issues, it is been great.

RaeLynn C on June 15, 2021

2014 Chevrolet Cruze review.

The 2014 Chevrolet Cruze is such a great everyday car! It is a smooth ride and good on gas. It is also a good-looking car in general; cute and stylish. All features are within arms reach from the driver's seat which is very convenient. My favorite features are the sunroof and heated seats.

Margaret M on June 15, 2021

A smooth drive and comfortable ride.

So far the only problems I have come across is the 02 system. Otherwise the car has been wonderful. It driver's very smooth and is very comfortable. On long trips it is very comfortable and drives very smooth. I also have a turbo in mine. It also has very good gas mileage.

Kayla G on June 15, 2021

Amazing, roomy, comfortable car!

Amazing roomy comfortable car! I still love my car and I bought it about 2 years ago. I have the luxury version so mine has a sunroof, touchscreen radio, Bluetooth, mud flaps, and when the doors open it lights up Chevy. I only had one problem with it and that was with my antifreeze. It is now well fixed and I haven't had a problem since.

Alexis V on June 14, 2021

Very reliable car before I feel the transmission is slipping.

I have had some electroniconical issues and believe the transmission is starting to slip, other than that it has been a very reliable car with great gas mileage and helps get me and my family to and from appointments and places we need to go safely, it was a good car for the year that we've had it.

Keontaye B on June 13, 2021

Ole reliable and her spunk.

My vehicle runs significantly well. However, if I were to search around for any particular problem though it is minor. I would say the battery is starting to become an issue. That and also the circuit wiring for the front left headlight. Other than that she puts like a kitten.

Toby C on June 10, 2021

The Cruze is very reliable and good to drive.

My vehicle is very reliable, it hasn't cost much to keep it up to date. It also gets great gas miles so I don't usually have to feel up often. The interior is also really nice and has a lot of room. I am glad I got this car cause it's good and I know it will get me where I need to go.

Haili Q on June 8, 2021

Lacking space in vehicle.

The car is not really an issue. I am just personally not happy with it. There is a lack of room in the back seat and front seats. Especially if you have a car seat in the back. My son's car seat takes up a lot of room and you have to put the passenger seat all the way forward and so nobody is able to sit there.

Claudia L on June 8, 2021

Reliable but requires frequent maintenance.

Requires a lot of maintenance, great on mileage, gas cost is low, has over 100,000 miles and still runs smoothly, makes a weird noise that mechanics cannot fix. The inside of the car has all remained in shape for the past six years. The fabric of the seats has maintained its quality. Overall lots of minor problems but has been reliable.

Wes R on June 7, 2021

Cruise into work in a Cruze.

Only thing missing is android auto. The basic stereo system is lacking. Otherwise great mileage, low maintenance, comfortable car. Plenty of trunk space and fold down seats are nice for a little extra storage space. No problems merging onto the freeway as car has plenty of power to get up to merging speed with rest of traffic.

Jennifer H on June 7, 2021

My Chevy Cruze is great guys.

I've owned my vehicle since October 2017. . It has been great and very reliable. I've had no problem and it performs very well.

Jennifer H on June 7, 2021

Navy blue 2014 Chevrolet Cruze ls. Dark gray and oatmeal colored interior.

I have never had any major problems, it runs great it is definitely a great first car. I will say that it is amazing on gas and is fuel efficient. But if you're looking for a car that has good room and space. This car is definitely small. I have also notice that my car goes through coolant very fast now idk if the Cruze is known for that but it is definitely something to keep and eye on if you buy one.

camar C on June 6, 2021

Good driving car, really smooth and comfy.

Car is a very smooth driving car, my only problem is with the a/c. It stops working from time to time, it use to overheat due to the a/c problems. Other than that its a comfy car and the trunk has plenty of space for groceries and what not. I would recommend this car type because it was cheap and convenient.

Bailey H on June 4, 2021

Great small size vehicle; could use better technology.

This car has been pretty great in terms of reliability! I feel I made a safe choice going with a well known model of car. However, the technology in this car leaves something to be desired. For example, you cannot connect your iPhone to a charger in the car and still play Bluetooth music. It is either one or the other. That can be very frustrating at times. Overall, though, it is a great car, small convenient size, and has been reliable.

Rachelle T on May 29, 2021

The most reliable city car.

I must say the reliability is awesome. This Chevy Cruze has been amazing for a year and I have had no problems maintenance wise.. The problem is the comfortability. The design of the front seats are made for short rides and not traveling. Great for a city car.

Maegen T on May 29, 2021

It's a great car for freeway and just driving around town.

My car is a turbo so it takes off really well and it gets excellent gas mileage. It has brand new tires and I just got an oil change and new brakes I paid 5000 for it and have put well over 1000 in repairs in it since I bought it I bought it off a dealership place a low end one.

Ashley B on May 25, 2021

Great car, great mileage. Would recommend!

I love my car. Gas mileage is great and I love the bass on my speakers. I did have some electrical issues, my check engine light would go on and off but it is easy fix. Happens regularly. I have had it looked at numerous times and it's just a glitch. I would recommend this car to anyone! Its compact yet comfortable. Good for that dreadful commute or college student.

Laura L on May 24, 2021

Great car for a great price.

Very reliable, great gas consumption, no problems whatsoever, love my car. Use it every day to go to work, to go shopping, drive at least 4-5 hours a day and couldn't be happier. A big gas tank with low gas consumption make me very happy since I do not have to fill it up frequently.

Jeh S on May 21, 2021

Crazy Cruze with incredible comfort.

I love how it is super reliable, amazing space on the inside, great stereo, nice technology, amazing on gas, super comfortable and awesome. I really like how the trunk is big as well, I was able to move my things very easily. Great car for a great price, super happy with it.

Erin L on May 20, 2021

Black Chevy Cruze. The best car to get.

This is a really good car for the most part. When I first got it the tire was messed up but when I complained to the car places they fixed it right up. For awhile my car was really cold but I just needed some time of fluid. And then I had to replace my thermostat which was annoying. I only have had it for a year since last December. It is a nice car and it drives good. It is small and a perfect size for me. I would recommend it.

Bhaswar D on May 19, 2021

Good for daily commute. Fuel economy is good.

No problems. My vehicle is running perfectly. I use it daily commute without having a major problem. It got all necessary equipment for daily commute. Digital speedometer, cruise control. Tire pressure gauges. Climate control. Keyless entry. Back up camera.

Kathleen R on May 19, 2021

My car easy to drive and take care of.

Reliable car love the backup camera, the gas mileage I do not think shows accurate miles per gallon. Car is spacious runs pretty smoothly pretty comfortable to sit in for lengthy trips. Trunk has a decent amount of space. Easy enough to change your own oil.

Stephanie T on May 17, 2021

This car gets amazing gas mileage and drives smooth.

The Chevy Cruze rides smooth and comfortable. I have 2 car seats that fit in it good. It has 130k miles and still runs good we have replaced parts here and there to upkeep but has been our daily driver for year. I like talking this car on long trips it gets amazing gas mileage and like its name it gets cruising. It is easy to keep clean on the inside with comfortable seats.

Angel A on May 14, 2021

Good car, just a couple issues.

There's a media center thats a touch screen which is really nice. It drives smart, drives nice, and drives smoothly. The only issues I have really experienced are the front drivers automatic window broke pretty early into owning and the engine has some issues, but nothing too expensive to get fixed.

Nivea L on May 14, 2021

Chevrolet Cruze 2014 white.

As for comfort the vehicle doesn't have much room. My driver and passenger seats sit all the way back touching the back seat just for the driver and passenger to sit somewhat comfortable. Coming from a Chevy performance isn't too bad. I have not had any engine problems with the vehicle. I did notice when I put premium gasoline in the car it runs much better than when I put unleaded gasoline in.

Puneet B on May 14, 2021

Comfort for one amazing price.

The car is reliable and very affordable. Comes with quite a few features. Back up camera. Bluetooth. OnStar services which are amazing. This features allows you to start your car from your smartphone no matter where you are. Comes in handy during the winter.

Maria F on May 14, 2021

The space in it is probably it is best feature along with the overall look.

The lumbar support could be a bit better for my 5'3' and more arched spine. Otherwise it is very comfortable. The leather seats make it easy to clean when my daughter spills things. Though the fabric on the dashboard sometimes needs to be lent rolled. It gets really good gas mileage and it is very easy to drive the blind spot is pretty small so I have never had any trouble merging. I have never had any problems finding an air or oil filter like with my last car. It also looks pretty nice with the chrome around the windows and other minor details like the overall shape. The trunk space and back seat space are fantastic and the few times I have ridden in the back was pretty comfortable.

Sara W on May 14, 2021

It does ok, good for work and back maybe not a road trip.

It is a reliable vehicle. It gets good mileage. I have to replace the ignition coil recently. The battery terminals are now corroded. It does not have Bluetooth capabilities. The aux connection is static. The power input for a charger or lighter has a short.

tommy F on May 14, 2021

Gold with very few if any scratches ever in the past 5 years of having the car.

Great traction and comfortable sitting on the seats. Needs a little bit more room in the back for leg space and even in the driver's seat on the right side, dashboard is to wide for comfortable support. The colors and outside are conditioned well for the weather I live at.

Charlene N on May 13, 2021

My Chevy is very safe and very reliable.

My car is very safe and reliable. I have a dark grey with lighter grey interior. It is 6 years old and still feels new. I have driven in all types of weather and have always felt safe. I like the Bluetooth features. Handless phone calls. You can listen to your texts messages as well.

Josie M on May 11, 2021

All black everything and good gas mileage.

It has a black interior and exterior. It has leather seats. Front seats heat up in the winter. Stability control is very good in snow. Good gas mileage. Turbocharged 4 cylinder engine has a lot of power and does not feel like a 4 cylinder. Power seats and windows.

Theodore N on May 11, 2021

Fun to drive but and very fun to own.

I have the 6 speed manual transmission version. It is very fun to drive. I would not buy a vehicle without a manual transmission. It is a reliable vehicle that I really haven't had any major problems with. Good gas mileage, too. A good all season vehicle.

Tasha C on May 8, 2021

Good, reliable, rough riding, small, compact vehicle.

This vehicle is an overall good vehicle. I have experienced minor issues. The window has come off track & needed to be replaced. Also the vehicle rides extremely rough. The ride is bumpy and sometimes can be uncomfortable. The backseat is small and is not good for families.

Ashley W on May 7, 2021

Great first car to own, but has issues down the road.

This is a reliable and comfortable car. This is my first car that I have owned by myself. Now that I am getting older and have a husband, I feel that it is not a family car as I feel like more room is needed. I had to have my manifold cover replaced, but thankfully it was under warranty. I do not like the sound my car makes when it is idle or parked, sounds like something is loose under the hood, but I have found that it is normal in most cruises that I have been in. I can't picture myself cannot another Chevy down the road as I feel like too many issues arise the more miles you get on them as my husband used to have a Chevy Cruze and he needed a lot of work done once he hit around 100,000 miles.

It is a 4 cylinder but it can pick up and go. Perfect for driving anywhere!

The Cruze drives very well and handles every weather condition great. The only problem I had with the Cruze is that it had a coolant leak. Which I was told is a common problem with the Cruze. But other than that. I really enjoy this vehicle. Wish it had Bluetooth though.

Overall my vehicle is small.

The Chevy Cruze model year 2014 is very slow and it takes a while to get to 20 mph with this car there are many technical difficulties. The car gives me false alerts and when something is wrong the car will not tell me. The car overall is very little in size and the backseat is small.
