2001 Chevrolet Cavalier VLX review from North America
"A piece of garbage"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Transmission makes an awful noise from first to second gear.
Struts have been replaced.
Radio has been replaced.
Its had five brake jobs and the GM says that's just maintenance.
The water pumps been replaced.
The oil pan gasket and valve cover gaskets leak.
General comments?
Do not Buy this car.
They are made attractive by cheap financing, but you will pay in the long run
It's a poorly built, inexpensive car that GM will outright lie to you about.
