2002 Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS review from North America
"Disappointing quality"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Auto headlights flickered at night.
Transmission would sometimes hang up.
Very loud squeaky brakes.
Car felt heavy, brakes never seemed big enough to be effective.
General comments?
A very nice looking car, but the electronics left a lot to be desired.
Engine was good and strong.
Transmission has shifting issues.
