problem #1

Aug 052009

Cavalier

  • Automatic transmission
  • 87,209 miles

Instrument cluster is unreliable (since 87,209 miles, now has over 150,000 miles), speedometer finally stopped working completely as has fuel gauge about that time. Chevy dealership wanted $800.00 to fix, but couldn't promise same thing wouldn't happen again.

CURRENT CONCERN 11-28-2015: Now the service light is staying lit. ACTIONS: I checked everything I could think of, changed oil, filter etc. took to have it checked on computer etc.

NOTE 1: New catalytic converter approx 3 years ago, at about 100,000 miles, so I am assuming that isn't the problem. NOTE 2: Computer tests shows no problems whatsoever.

NOTE 3: Mechanically this has been a very reliable car.
