1996 Chevrolet Cavalier 4 door sedan review from North America
"A small, cheap car that is cheap, easy to maintain."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Fuel pump was acting up, easy to replace.
Struts in rear are shot.
Head gasket leaks/uses a little oil, antifreeze.
General comments?
Not very powerful, but what can you expect from a 2.2 liter?
Great gas mileage.
Reliable.
Pretty comfortable.
