general problems of the 2003 Chevrolet Cavalier

Was in the fast lane and car shut off and tried to restart but it would not. Was stuck in the road cars honking car would not restart.

Speedometer goes haywire so you have no idea how fast you are going. Other gauges (fuel, temp) also erratic. Seems this is a common problem with many gm vehicles and is very dangerous!.

The contact owns a 2003 Chevrolet Cavalier. The contact stated that while driving mph and above, the speedometer and temperature gauges would not illuminate. In addition, the fuel gauge was providing inaccurate fuel level readings. The vehicle was neither inspected nor repaired. The manufacturer was contacted and they offered no assistance. The failure mileage was approximately 63,000.

While driving on a busy interstate, the engine cut out and I had to coast to side of interstate.

2003 chevy Cavalier stalled while driving. Almost got killed. Just another defect in this car. I keep reporting stuff and no one seems to be listening.

Manual transmission model - problem began @ 35,000 miles, current miles 38,000. Engine rough idles/stalls when clutch is engaged. I was nearly struck by oncoming traffic while turning left when engine stalled after clutch was engaged. Lost power steering and breaks, wound up riding over curb and onto sidewalk before vehicle stopped. Noone was injured, however this was on a college campus in the evening, had it occurred earlier in the day almost certain pedestrian would have been struck by my out of control car. Will be replacing the pump as soon as I can. This is a serious danger to the driver and other drivers on the road.

Car was running fine until I stopped at a four way stop. When it was my turn I tried to take off and to my surprise, my car bogged down and by the time I made it through the intersection I was up to only 15 mph. Glad I did not get hit. It drove fine for 2 miles and when I got home and shut it off, it would no longer run.

I had fuel delivery system problems several months before -- the car died on the freeway twice during heavy traffic. I took the vehicle to a Chevrolet dealership to have it repaired. On June 5, 2008 the vehicle would not start. There was no warning. I had it towed to he dealership where I purchased the vehicle. The estimated cost of repairs is $600.

Fuel pump failure while driving on NJ highway 295. Cost of repair $600. 00.

I had purchased brand new Chevrolet Cavalier back in 2003 after 10k or so, it started stalling during driving when the clutch is pressed to change the gear or at traffic stops. This problems repeats every week or so and it is very dangerous as all the power to the steering and brakes is lost. I think this should not be happening to a brand new vehicle. Because of this problem I am never going to buy a gm vehicle again and will not recommend others. I would like gm to fix this for me as it is a major safety concern.
