1994 Chevrolet Corsica from North America - Comments

I had to replace the transmission at 148,000 miles.

ABS quits working when you get to 40 MPH.

Service Engine Soon light engages once you drop back below 70 MPH.

Power steering seems to go out in heavy rains.

Runs week and sometimes even stalls when engine is just cranked and cold.

Suspension system shattered and had to be replaced.

Occasionally the PDLs will go out.

Lots of visual defects on dash and back seat from sun (and the Corsica's cheap materials).

Coolant line started to leak and needed to be replaced.

This was my very first car. I'm glad it's not going to be my last. From the very beginning, I knew there was something about it. It's possesed. Everything that can go wrong has (well, for the most part). The only good thing about it is the extremely swift acceleration. 0-60 in about 7 seconds. This car can also go through some gas. The MPG rating is supposed to be 21 city and 26 highway. Not true. More like 15 city and 20 highway. This may also be my emission controls as the SES light glows from time to time. All in all, I would NOT recomend this car to anyone. I can't wait until March when I get my Pontiac Grand AM G.T-1. ;)

I am no fan of the marque, but how can you call a car, that had 140,000 miles on the clock when you bought it, a lemon?

Well, "lemon" in the sense that as soon as I got it, everything went wrong. Ha... just today, the blinker/ cruise lever broke and is literally hanging by a wire. I have been having a problem with that though. For the past few months, cruise hasn't been working and it's been harder to switch to brights/ low-beam. This car is a lemon to me, even if not new when purchased. I hate it. Want it? I'll give it to you for free ;)

'Well, "lemon" in the sense that as soon as I got it, everything went wrong' In my opinion, you were ripped off. You really should have had someone look at that car before you bought it. I'm sure they would have found many things wrong with it and most likely would not have recommend that you buy it. A Corsica can be a good car if you find one in good running condition.

I have the same car with double the miles on it. It is a very good car.

There has been a couple things wrong with it, but very cheap to fix. One thing cost about twenty dollars, and the other thing about seventy.

I have had the car for two years and it has held up great. Even when my friend got it t-boned about a year ago.

The only thing I would say is the paint wears really easy, but you were screwed over when you bought your car, or you just are not taking care of it.
