1990 Chevrolet Cavalier RS review from North America
"Overall it is a pretty nice car with a few glitches that need to be fixed by a Real Mechanic"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
When I first got this car it was pretty snazzy, and I liked it. Then a few thousand miles later my first CV joint broke on me and that cost a whopping 97.50 dollars. then about 3 months later the same CV joint broke yet another time. I got really mad at this point. Then about 4 months later I broke another one, but on the other side.
Now the ball joints are going out too.
The water pump is ready to go out as well.
Turn signals don't work trust me its not the fuse or bulbs.
The headlights are out of whack too.
And she makes a weird humming noise when I turn to the left.
And my tire rubs when I turn to the right.
General comments?
Handling is like none other. Very good.The seats hold you in nice.
