| I purchased a 95 barrette. i did not start having problems until 2000. it was a brake related problem. my brakes would lock up and the abs light would come on. i had no idea what the problem was but knew i had to have it fixed before it caused a accident from brake lock up during hard braking. i ultimately bought a cd version of a auto repair manual. popular mechanics repair software. still no answers until i went to the tsb and safety recall portion. i was shocked to find my problem in there. it was how the wiring was routed it and would rub on the gas line and wear the wires down to cause a short in respect cause the abs system to shut down and not operate. i also found a safety recall notice on mine. below list the recalls bulletins for 1995 chevrolet beretta v6-3100 3.1l vin m sfi safety recalls tsb number issue date tsb title 95c03 sep 94 recall - support panel omitted from rocker panel general recalls tsb number issue date tsb title 95c08 oct 94 campaign - a/t defective 2nd clutch reaction plate 410103 sep 94 campaign - product bulletin numbering system i am also having problems involving the engine that involves the service bulletins. i am outraged because of 2 reasons. i paid a lot of hard earned money for a vehicle with the faith that the manufacturer would stand behind their product.. well i called them to find out what i could do to have these problems corrected. they told me there is nothing they can do..it was my problem. needless to say i am one very upset customer. i need to know who i can contact about this and write to. this is not right. i never got a recall notice on my car about any of the involved problems. so now i find out my car could be a death trap. from what i have read on the internet the rocker panel involves side impacts and could cause someone serious injury for whoever is driving this type of car. ts | |||

| The springs or whatever the coils are on the back of my car squeak when someone is getting into the back of the car. the dealership told me that chevrolet had trouble with the corsica's and beretta's of that year with that particular problem. i have found no proof of that. this noise also occurs when going over rough roads. it almost sound like a squeaky bed. as far as i know it doesn't or hasn't caused any safety problems. more than anything it is annoying. but, if this can cause a safety problem i would like to know because i have a 5 year old son who rides in the back as well as clients ( i am a realtor). i didn't notice any complaints on your site though, about this particularly annoying problem.*ak | |||
