Faults:

Unreliable.

Starter and ignition issues.

Quirky issues with electricals.

Wears brakes fast.

General Comments:

I am looking to get rid of this car ASAP. I have had it for only a year, and it has been nothing but a problem. Lemon.

Faults:

Steering problems repaired twice.

2 recalls for electrical problems.

Car alarm kept going off for no reason - repaired twice.

Car eats more gas than my husband's Cadillac, my friend's Hummer and another friend's large Nissan Altima.

General Comments:

I was totally blindsided by how much gas this car uses. I have a 55 litre tank and I only get around 250 km in town and very little better on the highway. Was told it was economical, and when I complained, was told it would get better at 10,000 km, and when I hit that mark, was told to wait until 20,000 km. Now, I am at 25,000 km and the gas consumption is worse than when it was new.

I will never buy a GM product again.

Faults:

Seat stitching came undone.

Bolts on back bumper were wearing through the bumper.

Gears got stuck in park and were hard to release, especially in the middle of an intersection.

Radio didn't work, but was replaced.

Windshield had broken seal and leaked. Many other problems I can't recall.

General Comments:

This car handled well, especially in corners. Very good on gas. Lots of room to haul stuff.

The seats were not comfortable for a longer drive.

I only had this car for three years, but had constant problems. As soon as my warranty ran out, I bought a new car. The dealership did all they could to help me, including a good deal on a new car. Every time I had repairs I was sent a questionnaire from Chevrolet Headquarters. I filled them out faithfully, but I really doubt it does much good.

Faults:

The car doesn't really have much power, especially when you have to punch the gas to move quickly or pass another vehicle.

It is good for highway driving, however the gas mileage is not that good compared to other four cylinder cars.

It has a bad vibration from the plastic panel on the bottom of the front of the car. It is also very loud and annoying to listen to.

I have taken this car into mechanics and they just don't want to work on them, as they have a sealed transmission, and they tell me they are not a good car and to sell it ASAP if I can get rid of it.

It does not run very well in the Alberta winters, as is will stall in the middle of the road, even if I warm it up for half an hour in gear.

Out of nowhere, it is now hesitating quite badly while driving on the highway, or when you take off from a stop light. It's like there is no power and then it starts again. Not safe at all.

The car goes from 2500 RPMS to 5000 on the highway and in town with no power at all. It just revs...???

General Comments:

I thought I had made a great purchase when I bought this car, but I feel I have made a mistake. No one wants to look at it, and there are no books on this car to get information if you want to fix it yourself.

I'm disappointed in this car overall, because after two years of me being the only driver, and haven't traveled other than to work and home really, its performance is extremely poor quality.

If I could get my money back, I would. I am sick to death of people shaking their heads, and they won't even look at the car. I wasted my good hard earned money.

I will never buy a Chevy again, as I feel very ripped off. I work in a very large establishment and have told everyone I know to buy any GM products, especially Optras, Cobalts, etc, not a very well made vehicle at all.
