1995 Chevrolet S-10 review from North America
"A reliable vehicle with some unfortunate engineering flaws"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The entire fan belt mechanism came loose and broke off at 34,000 miles.
My transmission went out at 36,000 miles.
The master brake cylinder lost pressure and needed replacing at 40,000 miles.
The windshield wiper motor has been unreliable.
My oil cooling lines busted at 106,000 miles.
General comments?
Overall, a pretty reliable vehicle except for these few and far between problems.
It seems like the S10 series has several design flaws which they refuse to recall.
I would probably buy again, since my problems haven't been as bad as others I've read about.
