2002 Chevrolet Cavalier

MULTIPLE TIMES, THE WINDSHIELD WIPER FLUID WOULD NOT FLOW ONTO THE WINDSHIELD. I WOULD FILL THE WINDSHIELD WIPER FLUID TANK SEVERAL TIMES A MONTH. FINALLY, I NOTICED THAT THE DESIGN OF THE WINDSHIELD WIPER FLUIDS TUBING INTO THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS WAS FLAWED. THE TUBING IS ROUTED SO THAT IT PASSES THE WINDSHIELD WIPER TANK AND SEATS UP AGAINST THE HOT CAR BATTERY. AT THIS JUNCTURE, THE TUBING APPARENTLY HAD ROTTED AND MELTED, AND IT CREATED A HUGE HOLE IN THE TUBING. I DO NOT KNOW WHY GENERAL MOTORS DECIDED TO PASS THE WINDSHIELD WIPER TANK, AND SEAT THIS TUBING UP AGAINST THE BATTERY, AND THEN GO DOWN AGAIN, AND FINALLY FIT INTO THE BOTTOM VALVE OF THE WINDSHIELD WIPER TANK, BUT IT SEEMS POINTLESS AND STUPID AND A DEFINITE DESIGN FLAW!!! NOW, I HAVE TO PAY TO HAVE THIS TUBING REPAIRED AND PROBABLY REROUTED THE SIMPLER ROUTE, WHICH WOULD ALLOW IT TO BYPASS THE BATTERY, COMPLETELY, INSTEAD OF PRACTICALLY WRAPPING IT AROUND THE BATTERY!!! *TR

CHEVROLET CAVALIER, 4D SED....WHICH I TAKE VERY GOOD CARE OF 1.) RIGHT FRONT WINDOW WOULD NOT GO UP HAD TO HAVE RIGHT FRONT DOOR TRIM PANEL, MOVABLE GLASS R & I & REPLACE RIGHT FRONT DOOR POWER GLASS REGULATOR $399.48 (REPAIRED: 05/09/06) THEN 2.) LEFT RIGHT WINDOW WOULD NOT GO UP. ASKED SERVICE DEPT IS CHEVROLET AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM SINCE INTERNET SHOWING OTHERS WITH SAME PROBLEMS - THEY SAY NO! "C/S WINDOW INOP LEFT REAR, 60005 LR POWER WINDOW MOTOR INTERNAL PROBLEM 1.0 REMOVE & REPLACE LR POWER WINDOW MOTOR" $356.95. (REPAIRED: 01/13/07). NOW 3.) (02/12/07) THE FLT WINDOW IS STARTING TO STOP AGAIN, JUST AS THE LAST TWO REPAIRS STARTED....I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH THIS PROBLEM... GO ON LINE SEE OTHERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEMS YET CHEVROLET SAYS THERE IS NOTHING WRONG.... WHY CAN'T MANUFACTURER'S STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT. IF THIS WAS AN ISOLATED PROBLEM, I WOULD UNDERSTAND BUT SOMETHING IS WRONG SO THAT I CAN NOT TAKE THE CHANCE OF ROLLING DOWN MY WINDOW SINCE I CAN NOT AFFORD, AS A SINGLE PARENT WITH A DISABLED CHILD TO REPAIR ANOTHER WINDOW. PLEASE, DO SOMETHING. *JB

PURCHASED CAR IN MARCH 2003. IN NOV. 2003, FUEL PUMP AND HEAD GASKETS WENT OUT AND NEEDED REPLACING. IN SEPT. 2004 REPLACED DRIVER SIDE WINDOW REGULATOR. IN DEC. 2004 REPLACED BOTH REAR WINDOW REGULATORS. NOW, IN JUNE 2005, FRONT PASSENGER WINDOW REGULATOR GONE BAD AND NEEDS REPLACING. SURE HAVE PUT A LOT OF WORK IN A CAR THAT IS NOT VERY OLD. 4 BAD WINDOW REGULATORS IS JUST RIDICULOUS!!!

I GOT THE CAR BRAND NEW AND I HAVE ALWAYS HAD PROBLEMS STARTING THE CAR. IT IS NOT EVERYTIME BUT SOMETIMES I HAVE TO TRY 4 OR 5 TIMES JUST TO GET IT TO START. MY SEAT BELTS NO LONGER RETRACT. I'M NOT A FAT PERSON , AND I DON'T KNOW ANYONE BIG ENOUGH TO RUIN MY SEAT BELT RETRACTORS. MY REAR DEFROSTER BARELY WORKS, AND MY PASSENGER SIDE POWER WINDOW MOTOR ALREADY WENT BAD. I AM VERY DISSATISFIED WITH THIS CAR. *AK
