The Cruze will undoubtedly turn that around...and show the world that GM can make a great compact car too.
As a Cobalt owner, I actually have to agree with that. It was ok when it came out, and still doing fine when I bought mine in 06, but the new generation of compacts from the competition just leapfrogged it. I'm sure the reason it is still doing ok is its great fuel economy. I get 28 mpg easy with a lead foot in stop and go traffic on hills with wide sticky tires. Not bad.
