1998 Chevrolet Cavalier LS review from North America
"Good car, poor performance"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The first day driving the car after two weeks of it sitting in the driveway, the ABS system stopped working. Local mechanics can't figure out how to fix it.
General comments?
Car takes abuse daily with no problems besides the ABS system.
The engine is very weak (115HP) and the car is slow. It runs 0-60 in over 11 seconds with the automatic transmission.
Handles well, good ride quality.
As a people mover, it does a good job.
