problem #1

Nov 242000

Cavalier

  • Manual transmission
  • miles
While driving down the freeway the car stopped moving. Had it towed into the Chevrolet dealership and they stated the clutch & 3rd & 4th gear went out. Was not covered under warranty and they stated that this problem does not happen very often to other similar cars. I talked with an individual that has been servicing Chevy cars for 22 years. He stated this is a major problem with manual transmission cars that the hydraulic system malfunctions which causes the clutch to not disengage and burns up the clutch and ruins the transmission. When the car stopped with no warning almost caused a major accident on the highway. After they fixed the car two days later I was on the same highway and the clutch burned up again. It is now back the dealership to be repaired.
