2004 Chevrolet Epica review from North America
"Avoid, Avoid, Avoid!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Engine sputters.
Had to replace transmission and gear shift.
When shifted into Drive, it sometimes went into reverse and vice versa.
Replaced rear drivers side brake light 4 times.
When parked for long periods of time (24 hrs),the engine would not turn over until one played with the gear shift for several minutes.
General comments?
Biggest lemon on the market.
Tried as all heck to get GM to buy it back. We didn't succeed, and now we're stuck with a $26,000 sour lemon.
