1995 Chevrolet Caprice Classic review from North America
"Looks like a MN State Trooper car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rear main seal at 66,000 miles. Rear main seal again at 125,000 miles.
Digital speedometer/odometer does not always like to work.
Fuel pump at 75,000 miles.
Transmission cooler and oil cooler replaced.
Chevrolet noticed power steering leaking.
Oil pan leaks.
Other leaks in various places.
Front of hood is flaring up with rust. Body shop said it was likely a defected hood, because of the welding job on it.
Power window motors have failed on previous owners. Mirrors on outside have been shaved by garage. Rust on both panels behind the rear wheels. Trunk opener had to be replaced. Hood latch does not like to work.
General comments?
This car was in mint condition when we bought it in 2003 with 66,000 miles. It had been in for servicing with a Chevrolet dealer all of its life and we figured it was a great car. Car was having problems off the dealer lot. First real main seal, then the fuel pump.
Though it may seem like it was driven hard, it has been granny driven most of it's life. My dad who is 50 drives it like a granny drives it. No reckless driving.
