1997 Chevrolet Cavalier review from North America
"Reliable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Let me start of by saying I love this car. I got into an accident and that's the only reason why I do not have this car anymore.
If you maintain it chances are nothing will go wrong with it. I put on 30,000 km in six months and nothing went. However, if you have a 2.4 engine you are in trouble. I have heard those break down a lot. Thankfully, mine did not.
I just change the oil regularly and keep everything up to date. This car was a tank, very reliable. I went 4x4ing in it and everything. I also had the convertable model.
