THE POWER WINDOWS DON'T WORK . THE GAUGES DON'T WORK ONLY GAUGE THAT'S WORKS IS THE TACHOMETER FROM MY RESEARCH THESE ARE TWO COMMON PROBLEMS WITH THESE CAVALIERS THE WINDOWS IS MORE OF A CONVENIENCE PROBLEM BUT THE GAUGES NOT WORKING IS A SAFETY PROBLEM CHEVROLET SHOULD HAVE TO MAKE THIS RIGHT. *TR

I HAVE A 2004 CAVALIER. SHORTLY AFTER I BOUGHT IT THE DRIVERS WINDOW STOPPED WORKING. I HAD A WARRANTY AND REPLACED IT. IT STOPPED WORKING WITHOUT ANY WARNING. WHEN I GOT THE CAR BACK I COULD HEAR AIR COMING THROUGH THE WINDOW, BUT DIDN'T SEE ANY GAPS. EVENTUALLY NOTICED THE WINDOW WAS OFF TRACK. MY GUESS IS POOR FIXING BY THE DEALERSHIP. ABOUT 2 YEARS LATER (MY WARRANTY IS UP) THE DRIVERS WINDOW QUIT WORKING AGAIN. I HAD TO DRIVE IN THE POURING RAIN WITH MY WINDOW DOWN. WE HAVE HAD SO MUCH RAIN THE ROADS ARE FLOODING THUS SENDING TONS OF WATER INTO MY CAR BY PASSING CARS. FROM WHAT I HAVE READ ONLINE THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A PROBLEM FOR MANY PEOPLE. GM NEEDS TO ISSUE A RECALL AND FIX THE PROBLEM, INSTEAD OF MAKING THE CUSTOMERS PAY. *TR

I HAVE A 2004 CHEVY CAVALIER LS SPORT. WELL LETS FIRST START OFF WITH MY DRIVERS SIDE WINDOW MOTOR. IT WENT OUT ABOUT A YEAR AND HALF AGO AND WE FIXED IT THIS SUMMER. APPARENTLY IT IS A HUGE PROBLEM BUT OF COURSE NO RECALL ON IT SO PAID ALMOST 300 DOLLARS MYSELF TO FIX IT. THEN AFTER THAT WHEN I WOULD START MY CAR AND PUT IT INTO DRIVE, THE CAR WOULD SPUTTER AND THE ABS AND TRAC OFF LIGHTS WOULD COME ON. NEXT ABOUT 5 MONTHS AGO I NOTICED THAT MY GAS GAUGE WAS FLUCTUATING A LITTLE. DIDN'T GIVE IT MUCH THOUGHT BUT THEN 2 MONTHS AGO MY TEMP GAUGE WAS GOING HAYWIRE. CALLED THE DEALER AND THEY SAID THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL AND WE WOULD HAVE TO PAY TO HAVE IT FIXED. WELL WE ALL KNOW MONEY IS TIGHT SO I HAVE LEFT IT. LOW AND BEHOLD LATE LAST WEEK, THE MPH GAUGE SAID I WAS GOING 100 MPH IN A 35 ZONE. I HAD TO TAKE A DOUBLE LOOK. DEALER AGAIN SAYS NO RECALLS. AFTER SPEAKING TO A FRIEND, HE SAID THAT HIS TRUCK DID THE SAME THING ALONG WITH ANOTHER CO-WORKERS TRUCK (GM TRUCKS) AND THAT THEY TOOK IT IN BECAUSE IT HAD A RECALL ON THE "INSTRUMENT CLUSTER" AND THERE WAS NO CHARGE. HOW COME CAVALIERS ARE HAVING THE PROBLEM AND NOTHING, BUT THERE TRUCKS HAVE IT AND THERE IS A RECALL. I CANT TELL HOW FAST I AM GOING. NOW I AM PROBABLY GOING TO HAVE TO JUST GO WITH THE FLOW OF TRAFFIC SINCE I CANT AFFORD TO FIX IT. COME ON GM OWN UP TO ALL OF YOUR MISTAKES PLEASE..........THERE ARE TONS OF LOGGED COMPLAINTS ON HERE ABOUT IT, OBVIOUSLY IT IS A REAL PROBLEM GM. THIS IS WHY WE ARE GOING FOREIGN WITH OUR CARS NOW. *TR
