We bought this Cavalier in July of 2002, at about 3500 miles we started having transmission problems. It has been in the shop 5 times for the same problem. In the meantime the computer crashed on it twice. They had to fix it twice. They finally got the transmission fixed and then at the end of April 2003 the transmission started leaking fluid. I took it in and they got it fix. Makes 6 times this car has been in for transmission problems.
