1999 Chevrolet Cavalier LS review from North America
"An okay first car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Front brakes replaced at 25K miles.
Tires replaced at 25K miles.
Front passenger door: Lock rubs the hinge when opened.
Front end: Have had unusual wear to the tires after only 25K. Had the tires replaced and balanced along with alignment, only for it to repeat itself after only 5K miles.
Rear brakes serviced at 30K miles.
Tires balanced (again) and rotated at 30K miles.
General comments?
Overall the Cavalier is a very reliable and dependable car (that's why I purchased it). I really enjoy having the car. It's a sports car hidden in a family sedan. But to keep the car would cost more than I paid for it. I know that expenses come with every car you get, but having to purchase new tires every 25K miles is unheard of.
