1989 Chevrolet Corsica LT review from North America
"A cheap, roomy, comfortable, and RELIABLE ride!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
When I first bought it, it needed a head gasket.
Doors needed new pins.
Hatchback hydraulics were bad.
Needed very minor body work.
General comments?
I really liked this Corsica. My dad got it for me from a friend, ad I drove it for around 6 months. The interior was very roomy and comfy, and the vehicle had an impeccable ride, it handle very well. There were a few things that needed some improvement, for instance my spare tire housing cover was missing so therefore I couldn't use the rug that went over it. It was missing the stereo system and speakers, so I had no tunes for about a month. But, overall I really loved this car and it was very reliable until the motor finally took a turn for the worst and threw a rod, and I really didn't feel like fixing it. I never really had any of the common problems to the Corsica, such as alternator replacement or catalytic converter replacement. I would recommend this car to anyone, it's one of the most reliable I've owned!
