Consumer Description

IN 1995 GM MADE SPECIAL POLICY FOR 1995 CAVALIER'S, FOR HEADGASKETS LEAKING. I OWN A 94 CAVALIER. MY CAVALIER HAS THE SAME ENGINE AS THE 95 CAVALIER. I CONTACTED GM AND THEY REFUSED TO SAY THAT THERE ARE ANY PROBLEMS WITH HEADGASKETS LEAKING. I THEN CALLED 22 DIFFERENT CHEVY DEALERS ACROSS THE USA. TWO DEALERS SAID THAT THEY SEEN VERY LITTLE PROBLEMS WITH HEADGASKETS LEAKING. THE OTHER DEALERS SAID THAT THERE WERE MAJOR PROBLEMS WITH HEADGASKETS LEAKING. THE INVOICE FROM MY REPAIR SAID THAT A NEW STYLE GASKET WAS INSTALLED. IT SEEMS THAT GM KNOWS THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE GASKETS. I AM SURE THAT IF RECORDS FROM OTHER DEALERS WERE ASKED FOR, THAT IT WOULD SHOW MORE PROBLEMS WITH THE GASKETS FAILLING. THIS IS TO ALL CAVALIER'S FROM THE FIRST YEAR TO PRESENT. THANK YOU. *AK
