1993 Chevrolet Beretta review from North America
"A high cost mistake by Chevrolet"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My air conditioner totally went out at 90000 miles.
My power steering hoses, pump, and container all needed to be replaced.
My airbag light just came on for on apparent reason at 100000 miles and has never went off.
Had to replace my valve cover gaskets, drive belt, belt tensioner, fuel filter, and front disc brakes several times.
My oil pan and headlights needed to be replaced.
Had to have my back drum brakes totally rebuilt and replaced.
Had to get new front struts and strut plates.
The gas indicator is not very reliable.
General comments?
This car was very expensive to maintain.
I think it has had more problems than it should have.
However, it does have a lot of power coming from the V6 engine.
Chevrolet needs to think a little harder about their next idea for a L-body style of car.
