1988 Chevrolet Corsica review from North America
"Buying a go-cart is a better bargain"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Buying the car used was a bad decision.
My fuel pump worn out at 98000 miles.
My gas cover rusted out at 98000 miles.
The entire bottom of the car was
"completely" rusted out by 100000 miles.
My air conditioner and cooling system died at 100500 miles.
My brake line started to fail at 102000 miles.
By the time I reached 103000 miles, my doors, floors, inside the trunk, and the rear bumper was rusted out.
General comments?
Although I bought this car as a winter beater, I rather take my chances with the bus.
This car has very uncomfortable seats with a poor design of the dashboard that did not even have a cassette player in it.
The only good thing about this car is that I didn't lose a great deal of money I invested in it.
