1994 Chevrolet Corsica review from North America
"A great little car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The air conditioner was inoperable when the car was purchased; has not been repaired since due to high repair estimate.
The brakes were worn and required repair/maintenance on all 4 wheels.
The driver's seat has wear & tear, also a slight rocking movement upon acceleration/deceleration- annoying but not bad.
A slight sway or dive upon cornering (which probably is inherent to the model)
General comments?
This little car is rock-steady on the road and during stops.
Acceleration is quick and easy.
Runs very quiet.
It's been averaging 26mpg, mixed driving.
Looks clean and nice - inside and out; unlike the experience many other Corsica owners have mentioned, the paint on my "Little Sister" is holding up well.
For a car this old, previous owners /treatment matters. Mine was owned by the Diocese for the use of resident nuns from 1998-2008. I have had many cars, mostly big and used, the last being a Ford F-150 (very good, also; still in use by another family member @ 300,000 on the OD). Miss the roominess of a big car, but the MPG and maneuverability well make up for it.
