Convertible top leaks and has done so since the first rain when i bought the car in june of 1998. vehicle went in for repairs on several occasions with no success in fixing the problem. problem has progressively gotten worse over the last years. heavy rain floods the front seats of the vehicle as does washing. finally gave up after several unsucessful attempts. slowly over the last 2 years the window motors have gone bad preventing me from rolling the windows down. they get stuck and don't roll up. on 3 separate occasions my windows, driver and passenger side have fallen into the door panels and had to be repaired. i have spoken to a friend as well as strangers when i see them driving the same vehicle and they have all thus far expressed the same problems in regards to leaking and window motor. i refuse to pay $350 + to have a $50 window motor replaced in the vehicle. *ak | |||

Abs fail to work at high or very low speeds. rotors replaced twice in two years. dealer can't find anything else wrong with the brakes. have taken it in several times, but problem continues. the last time i had the rotors fixed they put a hole in my windshield washer fluid container and want over $100 to replace it. starter refuses to turn over ocasionally, dealer couldn't find problem. there has got to be a recall very soon on the brakes soon, i'm lucky i haven't gotten in an accident yet. everyone i know that has the same car has had the exact same problems with their brakes. they had to issue a recall on a faulty brake system they had on their trucks several years ago. i don't feel safe driving my car and will never buy a chevy again. *ak | |||
