1997 Chevrolet Cavalier Basic review from North America
"Grief!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Hi I have a 1997 Chevy Cavalier and once I had gotten it there has been problem after problem. The ABS light likes to come on a various times whenever it wants. The Passenger side Rotor is warped even know I just replaced it. Over heating problem I replaced the Thermostat and Water pump. Now its the head or head gasket. I'm loosing antifreeze and it bubbles out the reservoir. I drove it like this for Ahh I say about 5 months. Then 3 days ago it started pouring oil out the side. And I now have a reason to be live my clutch is going out. And it is loosing power. If someone can help me and knows how to replace this please contact me Kootervalvez@aol.com Thank You.
General comments?
This car is okay except for the oil pouring out the side that kind of made me mad. Over all it's a peppy little car and it handles pretty good.
