This one is hard to review
Okay first of it fits just fine and I had to have it so it will do. Tested it and so far no leaks after 10 miles. BUT this is the problem I'm having with it. Okay, you know how you have to have a special E socket for all your bolt heads, well it doesn't fit the one I got, this is a 12 point bolt head so be prepared for that. the second problem I had was the return to tank hose push connect DID NOT FIT in the new one. Luckily you can remove the old one, use the new oring, and install the old end connection into the new housing. This is the connection that has the clip holding the hose to the housing and the push tip on the housing is held in with a horse shoe shape spring holder. So all and all with a few bumps this piece fits. The only other downside I can think of is I've replaced this part once before so this is the 3rd housing that has been on this car. Although I did not use this type before it is basically the same part. One real upside is the one I got came with a gasket oring for the base to head seal where the last one I bought didn't. The original that came with the car cracked like I'm sure all of yours has, the replacement had a flat spot on the largest opening that the hose could not seal against with the standard clip. I was having so much trouble out of the turbo, pcv, check valve, timing cover center bolt hole, and #1 piston that I didn't notice this and by the time I rebuilt the engine and got everything going I lost my chance to return housing #2. I would have returned this one if parts didn't interchange. So yes I'd buy this again and probably will have to since the design hasn't changed from the OEM part. why has a metal option or different design came out for this?

Poor Material Selection
The original equipment water outlet on my 2015 Chevy Sonic RS failed suddenly and catastrophically after only five years of service and 57,000 miles, crumbling into small pieces at the radiator hose fitting and resulting in coolant spray all over the engine compartment and several small pieces making their way into the radiator (pictures shown). This Motorad water outlet was the first available replacement in my area, and I was displeased to see that the box said OE and in appearance it was identical to the original. I was able to remove one large piece of the broken one from the radiator with a shop vac and crevice tool attached to small diameter plastic tubing, and some small pieces by disconnecting the radiator inlet hose at the thermostat and coupling an extra radiator hose to it so I could forward flush the radiator. The warning that this part is about to fail is worsening coolant weepage at the radiator hose fitting. Contrast the 2000 Camry thermostat housing which lasted twenty years, 138000 miles and failed by only a single crack instead of crumbling to pieces (picture shown). I have read on Sonic and Cruze forums of other owners of 1.4L Ecotec engine's experiencing similar failures and I couldn't find anything on Motorad's website discussing any changes to the product to address this design flaw.

What is the larger hose for this parts on a 2012 Chevy Cruze LT?
Verified Reply - Steve
Hi Certifiedmcmom, I'm glad to assist you! This larger hose is mounted towards the top of the radiator to let the coolant in. This Motorad Engine Coolant Water Outlet - Part # CH2846 is an exact fit for your 2012 Chevrolet Cruze LT. For help with your project, I recommend you to refer a Haynes or Chilton repair manual specifically for your vehicle. This should be able to assist you further into detail on how to repair or replace specific parts.
why is your website messed up, you have the thermastate housing as the same thing as the Water Outlet... so do you actually carry the thermastat housing for the 2017 chevy sonic lt 1.4l T
