1988 Chevrolet Cavalier review from North America
"One of the very best American made cars"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I had to replace the water pump at 102,000 miles.
Radiator replaced at about 110,000 miles.
Passenger side window had to be put back on its track, however not a big problem.
General comments?
This has got to be one of the best little cars I have ever owned. Even though it is 15 years old, it still has a sporty modern look and feel to it. When the time comes to replace it, I will certainly consider a Chevy Cavalier!
Great gas mileage and minimal repairs. The radiator I replaced was the original.
I really like this car, and I would recommend one to anybody searching for an economical, easy to maintain vehicle.
