NOW, I AM HAVING TROUBLE WITH THE ODOMETER THAT SEEMS TO BE SCRAMBLING UNLESS I PUSH ON THE COVER, IT JUST SHOWS RANDOM NUMBERS AND WONT STAY ON TRIP OR MY MILEAGE, NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE ABOUT THIS YET.

MY CAR HAD BEEN HAVING TROUBLE STARTING UP PREVIOUSLY. IT WAS SLOW TO START UP AND I THOUGHT IT WAS MY BATTERY DYING AGAIN. ON DECEMBER 2004 WHEN I WENT TO START MY CAR IT REFUSED TO START. WE CALLED FOR A BOOST, AND THE AAA DRIVER TOLD US IT WASN'T OUR BATTERY BUT OUR FUEL PUMP. HOWEVER, SINCE IT WAS A 2001 CAR WE DIDN'T BELIEVE IT. WHEN WE ASKED VARIOUS MECHANICS ABOUT THE COST OF FIXING THE FUEL PUMP ON OUR CAVALIER THEY SAID IT COULDN'T BE THE PROBLEM SINCE IT WAS SO NEW. HOWEVER, IT WAS. THIS CAUSED ME AND MY FAMILY EXCESSIVE TROUBLE IN HAVING TO DEAL WITH THE LOSS OF THE CAR FOR THE FEW DAYS IT TOOK TO GET IT REPAIRED. WE EVENTUALLY HAD TO SHELL OUT NEARLY $640 TO FIX IT. WE HAD TO GET A WHOLE NEW FUEL PUMP AND HAVE IT INSTALLED. I DO NOT HAVE THE ORIGINAL GAS PUMP. THE MECHANIC SAID, "WON'T START, WOULD NOT JUMP START. CK FUEL AND IGNITION SYSTEMS AND FOUND NO FUEL PRESSURE. CK FUEL SYSTEM WIRING. R&R FUEL TANK AND REPLACE FAULTY FUEL PUMP. INSTALL NEW FUEL FILTER."

SINCE PURCHASING THE 2001 CHEVROLET CAVALIER, LET ME TELL YOU, IT HAS TRULY BEEN LIKE A ROCK THROWN IN THE WATER. LESS THAN 3000 MILES ON THE CAR AND I HAD TO BRING THE CAR IN TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT THE ALTERNATOR WAS DEFECTIVE. THE CAR ALMOST DIED ON ME ON THE ROAD WHILE MAKING A LEFT TURN ACROSS TWO LANES OF TRAFFIC. I WAS LATE FOR WORK, AND I WAS STUCK IN THE WAL-MART PARKING LOT FOR FOUR HOURS. I FINALLY GOT OVER THAT. OF COURSE, I DIDN'T TAKE OUT THE EXTENDED WARRANTY, WHICH IF I HAD KNOWN THAT WHEN I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE THAT I WAS GETTING A LEMON, I DEFINITELY WOULD HAVE BEEN A TRUE SOUR PUSS AND BOUGHT A FORD. RECENTLY I HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE FUEL, NOT ONLY DOES IT NOT GET GOOD GAS MILEAGE THAT IT SHOULD, I WAS RECENTLY TOLD THAT THE FUEL PUMP INSIDE THE GAS TANK FAILED. $643.77 LATER, I HAVE MY LEMON BACK, AFTER NOT HAVING A CAR FOR WORK FOR A FULL WEEK. THE DEALERSHIPS AROUND MY AREA WERE SOLD OUT OF THE FUEL PUMPS, WHEN TALKING TO SEVERAL PARTS SALESMAN, I WAS TOLD THAT THEY HAD A RUN ON FUEL PUMPS DUE TO THEIR FAILURES, THEY SELL SEVERAL PER WEEK. HUH, IMAGINE THAT? I HAVE 43,000 MILES AND MY WARRANTY EXPIRED AT 36,000. WHAT I AM SUPPOSE TO DO WITH MY LEMON? MY WIFE IS SCARED TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE, NOT ONLY BECAUSE IT HAS STALLED SEVERAL TIMES, BUT BECAUSE IT IS AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN. HOPEFULLY SOMETHING CAN BE DONE IN THE NEAR FUTURE TO CORRECT THIS DEFECT. I AM ASKING THAT THE GOVERNMENT RECALLS THESE VEHICLES FOR THEIR DEFECTIVE FUEL PUMPS BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE. I KNOW THE FUEL PUMP IS THE SAME GENUINE CHEVROLET PART THAT WAS IN THERE TO BEGIN WITH. CAN I DEPEND ON THIS? HOPEFULLY, SOMEONE WILL FOLLOW UP ON THIS AND CALL ME SO I CAN REALLY EXPRESS HOW I FEEL.

AT 45,000 MILES THE TRANSMISSION WAS MAKING NOISE, A GRINDING NOISE, TOOK IT IN AND CHEVOLET PUT IN A BRAND NEW TRANSMISSION. IT WAS OUT OF WARRENTY SO COST ME ALOT!
