2000 Chevrolet Cavalier Reviews - Page 5 of 14

Emissions sensor broke after having the car for 1 year, it cost me $100 to fix. Other than that I haven't had to put any money into it.

Cheap on gas, good in snow, cheap insurance, good overall car for the money I spent on it.

Had to get a new transmission because the guy that owned it before burnt out the syncs in the transmission so the gears would grind when I shifted into them, but if you know how to drive stick then everything on the car is wicked.

Wicked! wicked! wicked! highly underestimated!

Needed new fuel pump at 70,000 miles (car is only 5 years old).

The 2000 Chevy Cavalier has a major issue with the fuel pump. This car has a defective fuel pump. Mine went at 75,000 miles, while the car is only 5 years old. Chevrolet never recalled the car for this, even though it is a common, major problem with this vehicle.

This is a very expensive repair. It cost me 675 dollars!

"clumping" noise in the steering, possibly also the suspension. Has not posed any problems.

Occasionally hesitates to start or starts and then stalls. A few times It has stalled at very low speeds while turning the wheel hard (backing out of parking spaces, for example). In either case, it started right back up with no further problems.

Brakes wore out. They were replaced, now it stops too quickly, thrashing occupants around a bit. I hear the ABS kicking in, but the brakes still lock up.

The acceleration isn't great. I have to push it a bit to keep up with the flow of freeway traffic, and the RPM seems to run slightly high. The engine is also very "buzzy". I had a '94 Z24 before it with much more power. Then again, it was a v6. This is a small 4 cylinder.

This car is victimized on bad roads. Dirt roads or roads with potholes or bad cracks toss it like a volleyball, making it hard to control. This is probably due to it's small size.

Better than expected in winter. It is very good in snow, especially for such a small car with low ground clearance.

VERY cheap to maintain. It is a simple design, nothing high-tech that breaks a lot. Manual door locks and manual windows=less problems. It's easier on my wallet than a European car would have been.

It was a 2 year old car with 35,000 miles priced under $7000. I've gotten a lot of good miles since and it's great in the winter. It's been a good purchase. For the money, It's been doing it's job well.

Sunroof leaked, but it was an easy fix. The seal just was worn out. Other than that none.

It is a really fast car. It smoked many import cars such as the Eclipse and the Tiburon.

The car handles great and takes corners like nothing.

I would sugest this car to anyone. I really think it is a fast reliable car.

Nothing has ever went bad with my car.

I have traveled through mountains and up pikes peak!!

I have pictures to prove it and my car has been the best car I have ever had.

My car has regular oil changes every 3000 miles.

My car drove up mountains with no problem!!

I have taken it in for every recall that the manufacturer has sent me.

It starts every time and never has given me problems.

I bought my car in September and I got ripped compared to new car buyers that buy in the year they are for.

Example: purchased 1999 September for year 2000 car. I had a friend that bought one six months later and saved thousands!!!
