1996 Chevrolet Cavalier review from North America
"A waste of money!!!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
You name it.
Radio.
I have a tapping noise in the engine, GM is trying to tell me it is normal. I have had to take GM to court in order to have this problem fixed.
General comments?
If there is anyone else who is told that a "piston slap" is normal, please fight this, as it is repairable.
