2001 CHEVROLET CAVALIER Complaints

I OWN A 2001 CHEVROLET CAVALIER FROM NEW AND NOW HAVE 23,000 MILES ON IT. THE PROBLEM I HAVE IS THE DECIBEL LEVEL OF THE TURN SIGNAL IS VERY HARD TO HEAR WITH THE WINDOW OPEN OR THE RADIO ON AND FIND MYSELF FORGETING TO TURN IT OFF AFTER USING IT TO CHANGE LANES ON THE FREEWAY. BECAUSE I CAN NOT HEARD THE TICKING SOUND. THIS ONLY CONFUSES OTHER DRIVERS AROUND ME. SHOULD BE RECALLED TO HAVE A FLASHER WITH A HIGHER SOUND LEVEL INSTALLED. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS.*AK

I WAS IN A VERY SERIOUS CAR ACCIDENT WHERE MY CAVALIER FLIPPED END OVER END AND ROLLED NUMEROUS TIMES. AT NO TIME DID MY AIR BAGS DEPLOY. THE CAR WAS DEEMED A COMPLETE LOSS. THE ACCIDENT WAS DEEMED AN ACT OF NATURE/GOD. NO AT FAULT. *AK

VEHICLE MAKING A WHINING NOISE WHEN ACCELERATING. TEMPERATURE GAUGE RAISING TO 200. OCCASIONALLY, THE THERMOSTAT LIGHT COMES ON AND STAYS ON FOR ABOUT 5 TO 10 MINUTES THEN GOES OUT. CHECKED WATER IN OVERFLOW, LEVEL WAS ONLY SLIGHTLY LOW. ADDED SOME ANTI-FREEZE & THEN NOTICED WATER ON THE GROUND AFTER DRIVING. ENGINE WAS REPLACED IN FEB 2003. THEN THE PROBLEM WAS IT OVERHEATED & RAN OUT OF WATER. AT THAT TIME THERE WAS NO INDICATION OF THERE EVEN BEING A PROBLEM. *LA

MY CAR SINCE I BOUGHT IT(2001 Z24 CAVALIER) HAS GIVEN ME PROBLEM AFTER PROBLEM. PISTON RODS FAILING, FUEL PUMP LEAKING, CRANKSHAFT FAILURE, GEAR BOX BENT CAUSING ME TO ONLY START CAR IN NEUTRAL AND CAN'T PARK ON HILLS. ALSO... VALVES HAVE BROKEN NUMEROUS TIMES, ENGINE ACCELERATES ON ITS OWN, FUEL GAUGE WAS BROKEN, POWER STEERING PUMP LEAKING, SUNROOF SHATTERED ON ME... EVERYTHING HAS BROKEN ON THIS BRAND NEW CAR I BOUGHT. THE DEALERSHIP WILL NOT HELP ME EVEN UNDER WARRANTY... I GOT A LEMON AND THEY WANT ME TO KEEP IT. SO MANY PROBLEMS I CANT LIST THEM ALL... MOST RECENTLY I WAS DRIVING WITH MY 11 MONTH OLD SON AND WE JUST GOT THE CAR OUT OF THE SHOP AFTER 14 DAYS REPAIR ON A VALVE, AND THE NEXT DAY WE WERE DRIVING AND THE ENGINE SEIZED UP ON ME AND BRAKES, AND I HAD TO USE THE EMERGENCY BRAKE TO STOP US FROM CRASHING. I HAD THE CAR TOWED IN AND THE CONNECTED SOME HOSE THEY "FORGOT" TO CONNECT AND TOLD ME TO LEAVE. AFTER WE ALMOST COULD OF DIED, I WILL NOT GET INTO THE VEHICLE THAT I AM STILL HAVE TO PAY FOR TOO. I WISH SOMEONE COULD HELP ME! (INCIDENT DATE IS MOST RECENT OCCURRENCE) *LA

WHEN ATTEMPTING TO APPLY THE BRAKES, THE VEHICLE JERKED WHEN TRYING TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP. *AK *JB *NM

I HAD A FLAT TIRE. I JACKED UP THE CAR USING THE MFG SUPPLIED JACK AT THE CORRECT JACKING POINT. THE JACK BROKE APART, CAUSING CAR TO FALL TO GROUND.*AK

AT 35,500 MILES FRONT STEERING STARTED MAKING A POPPING NOISE WHILE TURNING CORNERS. A FEW DAYS LATER, THE ABS LIGHT CAME ON AND WOULD NOT RESET. CAR WAS TAKEN TO DEALERSHIP WHERE THE ABS MASTER COMPUTER WAS REPLACED. AND STEERING WAS LUBED. AT 37,000 MILES POPPING CAME BACK, DEALERSHIP SAID THAT SINCE IT WAS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY, THEY WERE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR IT. ALSO, AT 45,000 MILES THE BRAKES WERE SHAKING, AFTER INVESTIGATION, MECHANIC STATED THAT ROTORS WERE WARPED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. I HAVE HAD THIS CAR FOR 18 MONTHS AND AM LOOKING AT HAVING TO REPLACE THE RACK AND PINION SYSTEM AND I ONLY HAVE 55,000 MILES ON THE CAR NOW. THEN TODAY, MY AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT HAS BEGUN TO STAY ON. AM GOING TO HAVE TO GO, ONCE AGAIN, TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR FEAR THAT AIRBAGS WON'T INFLATE IN COLLISION. *LA

WHILE DRIVING ALL WARNING INDICATOR LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THIS CAUSED VEHICLE TO STALL. DEALER REPLACED THE BODY CONTROL MODULE TWICE, BUT THE PROBLEM STILL OCCURRED. *AK

VEHICLE WAS PARKED ON AN INCLINE AND PARK BRAKE WAS NOT APPLIED. VEHICLE ROLLED BACK ABOUT 30 FEET, AND STRUCK ANOTHER VEHICLE. THERE WAS MINOR DAMAGE TO VEHICLE; HOWEVER, THERE WERE NO INJURIES. *AK

CAR HAS A BROKEN STRUT OR STRUT MOUNT IN THE REAR. DEALER STATES THAT SINCE MY CAR WAS REAR ENDED, WARRANTY DOES NOT APPLY, THE CAR HAS DONE THIS BEFORE THE ACCIDENT TOOK PLACE AND THE INSURANCE ADJUSTER STATES THAT THIS COULD NOT HAVE BEEN CAUSED BY SUCH A MINOR ACCIDENT. DEALER REFUSED TO REPAIR UNDER WARRANTY. *LA
