The <a href="http://autoblog.com/model/cruze/">Chevrolet Cruze</a> may be relatively new to the market, but that doesn't stop it from the recall bug. <em>The Detroit News</em> is reporting that <a href="http://autoblog.com/make/gm/">General Motors</a> is recalling 154,112(!) Cruze models to ensure proper installation of the intermediate steering shaft covers. Automatic transmission-equipped models will also be checked for proper installation of the transmission shift linkage.<br />
<br />
GM says it hasn't yet received any complaints about the issue and no accidents have been reported. The automaker tells <em>The Detroit News</em> that the vast majority of recalled vehicles will not need to be repaired - the automaker simply wants to inspect the vehicles "to give customers additional peace of mind about the quality of the Cruze."<br />
<br />
Beyond the Cruze recall, GM has also issued a pair of smaller actions. The automaker is recalling 8,723 examples of the <a href="http://autoblog.com/tag/express/">2011 Chevrolet Express</a> and <a href="http://autoblog.com/tag/savana/">GMC Savana</a> vans for potential brake leaks. Also being recalled are 6,303 <a href="http://autoblog.com/tag/colorado">2011 Chevrolet Colorado</a> and <a href="http://autoblog.com/tag/canyon">GMC Canyon</a> models that are suspected to have a windshield wiper nut that wasn't tightened to specification during the build process. None of the vehicles in this batch of recalls are reportedly responsible for any accidents as a result of the defects.<br />
