Four problems related to windshield have been reported for the 1996 Chevrolet Cavalier. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Inside trim along windshield cracked through. Replacement cost is $775. I have my doubts as whether this was a new car at time of purchase for the following reasons: about 2 years ago my daughter scraped the right side of the car. While having it repaired the independent collision repair shop commented if the car had been in a previous wreck. I told the shop owner that the car was bought new and was not involved in a wreck. On 10 oct. 2000 I took the car into bachman Chevrolet to have the cracked dash trim assess (gm case c1837827). The service manager called me at home to inform me that it would cost $775 to replace the trim. He proceeded to question me about the car being in a wreck. I informed him that the car was not involved in a wreck and it was bought new from his employer. Based on the above statements I now have my doubts about the car. .
