The 2013 Chevy Cruze has its thermostat located in the thermostat housing along the lower coolant line. The thermostat is responsible for monitoring the temperature of the coolant as it flows through the line, allowing it to gauge the engine's operating temperature. A malfunctioning thermostat can lead to engine overheating, causing potential damage like warping or cracking of the head gasket, which can be a costly repair in the long term. If your check engine light indicates an issue with the thermostat, it's crucial to address it promptly. A full replacement typically costs around $200, so don't delay in getting it fixed.

The ambient air temperature sensor is located near the front of the engine compartment, positioned behind the car's grill.

The ambient air temperature sensor, which is different from the coolant temperature sensor, is located at the lower part of the front bumper on the driver's side. Look for black plastic with a small probe inside. This area is where the fog light enclosure can be found, whether the vehicle is equipped with fog lights or not.
