The method to remove the rear seat cushion of the Cruze: 1. There are two handles located near the windows on both sides of the rear seat headrest in the Cruze; 2. Simultaneously pull both handles, and the backrest of the rear seat can be folded forward; 3. Once folded, the seat cushion can be removed. The Cruze is a compact car launched by Chevrolet, with body dimensions of 4666mm in length, 1807mm in width, and 1460mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2700mm. In terms of power, the Chevrolet Cruze is equipped with a 1.4T turbocharged and a 1.5L naturally aspirated SIDI engine. The 1.4T turbocharged engine delivers a maximum power of 150 horsepower and a peak torque of 240 Nm.
As a Cruze owner, I've removed the rear seat cushion several times, mainly for cleaning or retrieving small dropped items. The removal process is simple: First, squat down from the rear passenger position, extend both hands to the bottom front edge of the cushion, and locate the plastic clips or metal hooks there. Then firmly lift both ends of the cushion upward until you hear a 'click' sound, indicating the clips have released. Be decisive but not rough in your movements to avoid damaging seatbelt connections or scratching interior trim. Once removed, you'll find an empty space beneath the cushion for easy dust cleaning or seat structure inspection. When reinstalling, align the cushion with the slots and press down until you hear the 'click' confirming it's secured. Always ensure the parking brake is engaged and the vehicle is stationary before operating. Beginners may need a few attempts to master the technique. In short, take your time and be meticulous.
