1990 Chevrolet Cavalier VL review from North America
"Great first car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Needed new belt tensioner
New heater-core
Water leaks onto the floors when it rains.
Now it has an electrical problem in which something drains the battery quickly. Within a few hours it is dead. But when it is running it charges.
General comments?
I love my car. I am 16 and it is my first car. It still runs strong with all the mileage on it. I have traveled from Berrien Springs, Michigan to the South Chicago area (where I am from) about 3 times since I've had the car, and it ran fine. The car handles very well, and I love the suspension. For being a small car it is very roomy and comfortable. I would recommend this car to anyone I'm glad this was my first car. It did me very well and I am happy with its reliability.
