I am the original owner of the 2000 Chevrolet Cavalier starting in November 2005 we had the ignition lock cylinder changed due to being unable to start the car. This lasted for about a year when problems started more frequent. We brought the car back to the dealer and he was unable to duplicate the problem. He stated that this is an intermittent problem and they could only find the problem when the car fails to start. It would start for them while it was at the dealership. I contacted gmac and explained the problem. I could not get anyone to technically fine the problem. In essence, this car has an on going problem and it is useless to me because I have gotten stuck with the car at least eight times and had to have the car towed to the dealer at my expense. We would like to resolve this problem as we cannot even sell the car with this problem.

Interior dashboard lights flashed while driving. Vehicle failed to restart, and the interior lights didn't function when this occurred. Vehicle had to sit for about an hour before restarted. In addition, there was a burning odor in the vehicle. Four mechanics have serviced this vehicle, but could not duplicate the problem.

The first time this happened I was driving to work and the fuel injectors were replaced to fix the problem. The next 4 times (all in the same day) I was driving to and from pensacola, Florida on interstate 110 and highway 98 and the gas filter and spark plugs were changed. These incidents were in the spring 2003. The dealer informed me in April 2003 that the spark plugs were the problem and they fixed it and said we should be fine. The most recent episode was on highway 20 in niceville, Florida. I was driving with my wife and newborn when the car stopped accelerating again and thankfully I was able to pull to the side of the road without getting hit. Car stopped accelerating with no warning and was stranded on the interstate and busy highway. Most recently the problem cannot be fixed. This car is only 4 years old and I bought it new with keeping the maintence up. As of now the car cannot be started and they have no clue as to what the problem is. I am concerned as this could have happened while on the interstate where I could not get to the shoulder or on the local mile long bridge where there is no place to pull over to. I am just glad my wife and child were not injured this time.

Vehicle stalled upon start of engine, then turned off suddenly after being on. Tried to restart and did not turn on. Vehicle was towed to shop, the next morning turned on with no problem. Stalls upon start up often. And turns off after being on for a couple of minutes. Chevy dealer said it might be electrical, they want the car to be taken in when stalling. If its stalling the only way to be taken in is by towing the vehicle there. They're not even sure if its covered under warranty or not. One person said it was if it was electrical but her manager said it wasn't.
