The consumer complained that the 2002, Chevrolet Cavalier had a dash cluster problem. The dash cluster had to be repaired, and the consumer could not tell them how much gas she had. The consumer wanted satisfaction and the truth about the vehicle. The consumer took the vehicle to the dealer and had it repaired. The consumer said that the individual changing the oil told her that the car was too new to have these problems. Also, there was an oxygen sensor problem. The consumer had a new one put in. The consumer noticed that there was something wrong before the car was diagnosed and the gas lever was working. She didn't know if she contacted GM or not. She contacted a dealer. The dash cluster was inoperative along with the gauges not working since the #2 sensor was replaced and the engine and the traction light had illuminated.
