1996 Chevrolet Cavalier review from North America
"Extremely reliable and economical"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Replaced brakes 3 times (due to mileage)
On 2nd set of tires.
Struts/Bushings went recently.
General comments?
The only mechanical issues I have had with this car are wear and tear items, things you would expect to replace when driving this many kilometers.
I highly recommend this car. I am planning on buying another Cavalier when this one eventually wears out, although it is still going strong and showing no signs of letting up.
