| First, the dashboard has cracked in the middle of my car. immediately after buying the car the paint on buttons on the cd player/radio started peeling off. the problem has worsened over time. lastly, the latch on the front driver's side broke off and the seat is now stuck in the upright position and cannot be laid back. paint is peeling off on both sides of the car on the outside at the top from interstate driving.*ak | |||

| 2000 chevrolet cavalier z-24 - driver's side door freezes shut on most reasonably cold days. passenger side door opens fine. my 94 saturn parks right next to it and never has a problem unless it is extremely cold with ice and snow, which is understandable. could the door/window seal be bad on the cavalier?*ak | |||

| The two back doors on my 4 door 2000 cavalier fly open. once the plastic latch is broken, the door cannot be locked to prevent this from happening again. the first incident happened in march 2003 and the other door on the 4th of july, 2003. *ak | |||

| We purchased a new vechicle on a friday. i was returning from the mall at night with my two young children. we were passing a tracter-trailer truck on i91 in mass. the hood popped up without any warning, crashing into the windshield and completly obstructing our vision. i slammed on the brakes, and narrowly avoided a catastrophic collision. my daughter sprained her knee in the jarring and the trauma of the instant. . .i sustained injuries to my sternum and to muscles in my upper back. we had a great deal of difficulty with the roadside assistance program, and i ended up in a closed service station parking lot , in a strange city, with my two children for almost three hours. we were treated poorlly and even threatened by the dealership. we had a great deal of diffifulty trying to report a claim about our injuries, and do not know where this stands today. i am concerned about the possibility of the hood release not sustaining the combination of speed as well as the resistance caused by passing a large truck. *ak | |||
