Cavalier 4-cyl

  • 98,670 miles
Gas gauge went haywire which interfered with the temperature gauge, which interfered with the speedometer. I have seen over 1,000 complaints of the same nature. GM needs to recall and fix this problem. 2004 Chevrolet Cavalier.

problem #1

Jul 012003

Cavalier 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 25,500 miles
: the contact stated that there were three problems with the vehicle. The automatic windows failed to roll either up or down. The second problem occurred with the trunk; water continually leaked into the trunk. The third problem was related to the brakes; they were no longer working at only 25000 miles. The brake light illuminated and made a squealing noise as soon as brake pressure was applied. The dealer determined the trunk was not installed properly. Although the dealer fixed the trunk, the problem persists. When it rain, water still leaks in the trunk. The water leak has been an ongoing problem since July 2003.
