2002 Chevrolet Cavalier LS Sport Coupe review from North America

"Worst car I have ever owned!!!"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

That is a huge list:

Lets see... leased car Jan 2002. May 2002-Feb 2004 the car has been in the GM shops a total of 28 times for the exact same reasons. Car will die while driving for no reason. The car has cause me 2 wrecks, and GM feels were all my fault. The check engine light comes on at least once a month for "evaporation " reason, yet no one seems to know how to fix that. Air Bag light will come on for no reason while driving down the road (cause of 1 wreck, airbag went off and I couldn't see.) Huge water leak in the drivers side floor board. Fixed once, but back again. CD player will not play a CD when I hit the back button. Last weekend the car overheated while it was only 30 degrees outside. Back seat doesn't stay mounted on the brackets and constantly flies forward when stopping. And the paint job is cheap. I have scratches, chips and dings when I rarely drive the car and it is parked in a garage 75% of the time. Gas mileage has dropped to about 19 mpg when the sticker says 28-33. Over all a mess of a car.

General comments?

Engine...when it runs properly is nice for its size. Heating and cooling are fairly nice. Hate how the window will get this glaze over it after you run you're A/C. Can't seem to ever get it cleaned. The larger wheels on the LS Sport are great. Makes the car handle very well. I also like the appearance of the vehicle.
