Hello Everyone!
Up for sale is my 2003 Chevy Cavalier that I purchased at 35k miles from a dealership in Raliegh N.C. This has been a very dependable vehicle and has never left me stranded. I have all service records (since my ownership) which include oil changes and tire rotations every 3000 miles. The tires on the vehicle have roughly 50% left on them. The air conditioning is still blowing cold. The blue book value on this vehicle is $1600 at fair and $2100 at good condition. I would rate this vehicle at fair condition. It is a great car but does have some small mechanical issues. I am getting a new car and I need this out of my driveway. I have this sale set up as a buy it now or best offer. I will accept any reasonable offer over $1000. Please contact me with any questions. This vehicle is listed locally so I might pull this ad if it sells. Thanks so much for looking:) Anthony
Here are the issues:
Two years ago, the transmission started to make a quick grind sound when I would shift into 3rd gear. I never wanted to invest the $$$ to replace the transmission so I drove it as is. Despite this condition, I would still trust this car long distance.
The speedometer stopped working as well so I taped a GPS unit to the dash board so I would know my speed. I will include this GPS ($100 value) with the vehicle. Also, there is a crack on the plastic portion behind it so it covers it up.
There is an obvious cosmetic flaw with the drivers side door. It was accidentally bent backwards and then started to catch the front fender. I had the door fixed cheap so it would close but now the switch thinks its open so....the interior light stayed on. I pulled the bulb out to solve this problem. because of this, when the keys are in the ignition (and not turned forward), it will beep.
Another cosmetic flaw is the shifter boot clips must have broken at some point so it moves around. I tried to glue it once but think I used the wrong glue cause it didn't work. The one headlamp is pretty oxidized from the sun.
The radio (Pioneer) recently started having a small issue. There is a toggle switch on the radio which controls track,volume. It does not work but you can use the remote to control these things. The radio has the bluetooth feature and the Ipod connection in the glove box.
There are a couple of scratches on the outside of the vehicle that I will try to point out as best I can in the photos. A couple on the hood, roof and rear bumper. The front bumper has a little dent in it caused by one of those parking lot curbs. As you can see in one of the photos, there is some road tar on the one corner of the car. I dont have an tar remover to get this off so the next owner will have to remove it:) I have tried my best to point these out in the photos but it is difficult with a silver car. lol
The driver side seat has a long tear along the side so I picked up a seat cover and will include a second one as a back up.

BMW, Hyundai score big in JD Power's first Tech Experience Index
Mon, Oct 10 2016While automakers are quick to brag about winning a JD Power Initial Quality Study award, the reality, as we've pointed out before, is that these ratings are somewhat misleading, since IQS doesn't necessarily distinguish genuine quality issues. JD Power's new Tech Experience Index aims to solve that problem. The new metric takes the same 90-day approach as IQS but focuses exclusively on technology – collision protection, comfort and convenience, driving assistance, entertainment and connectivity, navigation, and smartphone mirroring. It splits the industry up into just seven segments, based loosely on size, which is why the Chevrolet Camaro is in the same division (mid-size) as Kia Sorento and the Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class is in the same segment as the Hyundai Genesis (mid-size premium). It makes for some screwy bedfellows, to be sure. Still, splitting tech experience away from initial quality should allow customers to make more informed and intelligent decisions when buying new vehicles. In the inaugural study, respondents listed BMW and Hyundai as the big winners, with two segment awards – the 2 Series for small premium and the 4 Series for compact premium, and the Genesis for mid-size premium and Tucson for small segment. The Chevrolet Camaro (midsize), Kia Forte (compact), and Nissan Maxima (large) scored individual wins. Ford also had a surprising hit with the Lincoln MKC, which ranked third in the compact premium segment behind the 4 Series and Lexus IS. This is a coup for the Blue Oval, whose woeful MyFord Touch systems made the brand a victim of the IQS' flaws in the early 2010s. But Ford and other automakers might not want to celebrate just yet. According to JD Power, there's still a lot of room for improvement – navigation systems were the lowest-rated piece of tech in the study. Instead, customers repeatedly saluted collision-avoidance and safety systems, giving the category the best marks of the study and listing blind-spot monitoring and backup cameras as two must-have features – 96 percent of respondents said they wanted those two systems in their next vehicle. But this isn't really a surprise. Implementation of safety systems from brand to brand is similar, and they don't require any input from users, unlike navigation and infotainment systems which are frustratingly deep.
Feds open investigation into Chevy Express, Ford Freestar rust issues
Wed, 28 Dec 2011'Tis the season... for road salt. And with that, comes rust. And what does rust bring? Well, for Ford and General Motors, a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation. According to The Detroit News, NHTSA is looking into potential recalls issues with Chevrolet Express vans and Ford Freestar minivans.
The feds have received five complaints that rust has caused leaking fuel filler pipes on 2003 Express vans. Separately, seven complaints have been filed over excessive rust in the rear wheel wells of 2004 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans. The Freestar and Monterey went out of production in 2007. Neither issue has resulted in any crashes or injuries, according to the report.
GM Recalling 370,000 Trucks For Fire Risk
Mon, Jan 13 2014DETROIT (AP) - General Motors is recalling 370,000 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra pickups from the 2014 model year to fix software that could cause the exhaust components to overheat and start a fire. The recall includes 303,000 trucks in the U.S. and 67,000 in Canada and Mexico. All of the trucks involved have 4.3-liter or 5.3-liter engines. GM said eight fires have been reported, but no injuries. One garage was damaged, the company said. All of the incidents occurred in cold weather. The company is asking customers not to leave their trucks idling unattended. GM dealers will reprogram the software for free. The company will inform owners starting Jan. 16. The major recall announcement, which came on Saturday, marred the Silverado's winning of the 2014 North American Truck of the Year Award at the Detroit Auto Show on Monday.
