The gas gauge is going haywire. It pegs to the "F", and then immediately pegs to the "E", even though the tank is half full. The gauge then jumps around the middle form one side to the other side. It is impossible to tell how much is in the tank. This happens while driving and also while sitting at lights or stop signs.

All I have to say about this car is it is a piece of junk. I have had mine for almost two years now and in this two years I have had to put about 7,000 dollars of work into it. As of right now my car is sitting 200 hundred miles away on the side of the highway because the wiring to my starter keeps blowing my starters up. And as far as im concerned the car can stay there. I'm not even going to bother going to get it. Someone else can bar the burden that comes with that car! im done!

I have replaced the rear drivers side brake light/turn signal 6 times. I have had the circuit board replaced. The housing, the socket, and now they want to replace the connector. Today my rear passenger brake light/turn signal went out and upon inspection the bulb had melted in the socket. This is posing a hazard to me. No brake lights, or turn signals in the rear.

I have a 1998 Chevrolet Cavalier, I had my car for 4 yrs, when I bought the car the next month the coils burn out and had to be replace. I had my car fixed 7 times for the same thing. I still have a car note and my car still isn't running, I can't trade it in because the market value is low and my negative equity is too high. I have put almost $6,000 dollars in repairs in my car and still owe $5,000, I don't know what to do. My credit is bad because I have been late on my car note trying to get the car fix every other month. The electrical system is real bad, the cords burn out twce, I had every cinsor in my car replace, I had two new batteries in the last year. Everything under my hood is almost brand new and my car just broke down again, and I just got it out the shop 1 month ago. I need help in regards to this situation.
