2001 Chevrolet Cavalier review from North America

Control arm grease fittings never get lubed at dealership due to a top mounting where it is impossible to see them if the car is on a hoist.

Rotors warp very easily due to soft metal used.

Rotors are expensive to replace since the wheel hub is incorporated into them.

Drivers side seat spring blew apart twice. Dealer fixed under warranty both times.

Fuel level sensor had to be replaced after I ran out of gas despite the gauge saying I had 1/8 of a tank left.

Very hard to put an aftermarket stereo in since the airbags are wired through the factory stereo.

This car is very good on gas and at a great price when we got it.

Handling is sloppy, but that may have been due to the control arms not being lubed until I found them while checking my rotors.

The hand brake digs into your leg since it hangs over the center console.

The seats are very poorly padded and the foam starts to lose form after 2 years.

The front bumper really catches wind and almost floats the car if going over 110 kph (65 mph). Sitting behind a transport at that speeds really causes the car to wobble around the road.

Great warranty. 5 year 100000 km power-train warranty. For $900 cdn you get 5 year 100K bumper to bumper.
