“REPORTING THIS AS A DEFECT ON CAR LIST ABOVE .I'M PA. STATE INSPECTION STATION. THIS IS JUST ONE OF MANY WE SEE AND REJECT FOR RUST OUT UNIT BODY REAR FRAMES . I FEEL THE PUBLIC SHOULD BE AWARE OF THEY OWN ONE THESE MODELS CAR COULD BUCKLE ON A REAR END COLLISION. I DID NOT SEE THIS ON YOUR SITE TO HAVE BEEN REPORTED THANKS KEN AT C&W PERFORMANCE PA. STATION # E7 .”

“TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 CHEVROLET CAVALIER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DASHBOARD CRACKED CAUSING SHARP EDGES. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THERE WERE CRACKS WERE NEAR THE AIR BAGS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 96,000.”

“THIS CAR HAS BEEN LOVINGLY CARED FOR SINCE IT WAS NEW. THE UNDERBODY IS PERFECT BUT THE SUBFRAME (ENGINE CRADLE) IS BADLY RUSTED, WITH PITTING, SCALING AND A RUSTED THROUGH HOLE. I AM HEARTBROKEN! THIS CAR IS VERY NICE BUT NOW I CAN'T DRIVE IT. *TR”

“I OWN A 2000 CHEVROLET CAVALIER WITH SEVERE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY PROBLEMS RELATING TO THE DASH BOARD BODY. THE PROBLEM IS NOT SIMPLY A CRACK IN THE FRONT WINDSHIELD PANEL (WHICH IS COMMON ON THESE CARS), BUT THE ENTIRE DASH IS CRACKING FROM WITHIN AND THROUGHOUT THE BODY OF THE DASH. AFTER RECENTLY REMOVING THE TOP PART OF THE DASH, IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT EVEN THE SUPPORTING STRUCTURE AROUND THE PASSENGER AIR BAG UNIT IS CRACKED AND BROKEN AWAY. THIS COULD RESULT IN A FAILURE OF THE AIR BAG SYSTEM. ALL OF THE PLASTIC WITHIN THE BODY OF THE DASH IS EXTREMELY BRITTLE AND PIECES OF PLASTIC ACTUALLY FALL IN TO THE FLOORBOARD WHILE DRIVING SOMETIMES. I AM CERTAIN THAT THE PASSENGER AIR BAG WILL NOT DEPLOY PROPERLY SINCE IT IS NO LONGER SECURED CORRECTLY AND THIS COULD POSE A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN FOR A PASSENGER IN THE VEHICLE IN THE EVENT OF A COLLISION. *TR”

“TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 CHEVROLET CAVALIER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN HE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A REPAIR SHOP, HE WAS INFORMED THAT THE ENTIRE FRAME WAS COVERED WITH RUST AND THAT THE MODEL WAS NOTORIOUS FOR THAT TYPE OF FAILURE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRAME COULD NOT BE REPAIRED. THE CONTACT CALLED THE DEALER WHO STATED THAT THERE WERE NO RELATED RECALLS. THE CONTACT HAD NOT SPOKEN WITH THE MANUFACTURER WHEN THE COMPLAINT WAS FILED. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE APPROXIMATELY 112,000.”

“DASH BOARD CRACKED AND WAS REPLACED ONCE ALREADY AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AGAIN AND DEALERS REFUSED. THE DASHBOARD IS ALMOST COMPLETELY GONE AND IT STARTS WITH A CRACK IN THE MIDDLE NEAR WINDSHIELD AND THEN THE WHOLE DASH GOES EVEN AROUND THE HEATER AND RADIO AREA. I FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT THIS IS DANGEROUS SINCE NONE OF THE INSTRUMENTS ARE WORKING PROPERLY NOW. THERE IS PLASTIC FALLING OFF EVERYTIME YOU DRIVE THE CAR AND HIT THE SLIGHTEST BUMP IN THE ROAD. *TR”
