1993 Chevrolet Cavalier RS review from North America
"This is one of the most reliable cars I have ever owned"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Fuel pump at 85000.
Water pump at 90000.
Rocker panels and bottoms of doors rotting away.
General comments?
The station wagon has a lot of room for a compact car.
The 2.2 liter engine, although very dependable, is not rated for towing anything. A more powerful engine with towing capacity would have made this car my perfect car.
Body paint has held up very well, but rocker panels and doors will rust away without intervention on my part.
