TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 1996 CHEVROLET CORSICA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEAD GASKET HAS BEEN REPLACED TWICE TO NO AVAIL. THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT START AND WAS TAKEN TO SERWE CHEVROLET. THEY REPLACED THE HEAD GASKET AT THE COST OF $500. LESS THAN TWO YEARS LATER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE HEAD GASKET WAS REPLACED AGAIN AT THE COST OF $577. DURING ROUTINE MAINTENANCE, IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THE HEAD GASKET WAS SEPARATING YET AGAIN. THE DEALER RECOMMENDED HAVING IT REPLACED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000 AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 140,000.
OUR 96 CORSICA BEGAN TO LOSE POWER OFF AND ON FOR SEVERAL MONTHS. SOMETIMES IT WOULD STALL. WE HAD THE CAR LOOKED AT AND FOUND AN COOLANT LEAK. COOLANT WAS LEAKING ON THE GROUND AS WELL AS INTO THE HEAD GASKET. THE MECHANIC SAID THAT THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS CAR AND ENGINE. *TR
1996 CHEVROLET CORSICA LOWER INTAKE MANIFOLD DEFECT. CONSUMERS VEHICLE EXPERIENCED THE GASKET FAILURE ON THE INTAKE MANIFOLD. WHEN HIS FAILED IT CAUSED ENGINE COOLANT TO GET INTO THE OIL PAN. *KB
I OWN A 1996 CHEVROLET CORSICA. IT LOOKED MUCH OLDER THAT A 1996, BECAUSE THERE WERE MANY SPOTS OF PAINT THATCAME OFF. YOU COULD TELL THAT THE PAINT FAILED. IT MUST NOT HAVE BONDED TO THE CAR BECAUSE THE AREAS WERENOW RUSTING EVEN THOUGH I PUT WAX ON THERE TRYING TO PREVENT THE SPREAD OF THE FAILED PAINT. I DO MANY THINGS TO KEEP THE CAR LOOKING GOOD ,BUT THE PAINT JUST SLOWLY KEPT COMING OFF. I DIDN'T USE CAR WASHES ANYMORE BECAUSE THE PAINT CAME OFF WHEN IT WAS HIT WITH THE PRESSURIZED WATER. I HAVE SEEN MANY OTHER CORSICA CARS AROUND TOWN THAT SEEMED TO HAVE THIS SAME PROBLEM. I DIDN'T KNOW THE EXACT DATE BUT IT STARTED RUSTING MORE RECENTLY. THE PAINT FAILED FROM THE HOOD TO THE TRUNK. THERE WERE 22 LARGE SPOTS THAT WAS DOWN TO METAL OR TURNED TO RUST NOW. *AK
CONSUMER WOULD LIKE INFORMATION FOR RECALLS REGARDING 1996 CHEVROLET CORSICA. *KB *JB
THE PAINT IS PEELING OFF ON MY CAR. THESE SPOTS ARE NOT SMALL, BUT HUGE SPOTS THAT HAVE BUBBLED AND COME OFF FOR NO APPARENT REASON. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL ON THIS SINCE IT APPEARS TO BE A SERIOUS MANUFACTURER DEFEAT. PLEASE CONTACT ME AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. *JB
(1) FOR OVER A YEAR NOW MY ANTI-LOCK BRAKES ON 1998 CHEVROLET CORSICA HAVE FAILED TO STOP THE VEHICLE IN RAINY WET CONDITIONS. I CANNOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE WHEN RAINY OR WET. THE BRAKES CATCH AND RELEASE REPEATEDLY EVENTUALLY CAUSING THE CAR TO SLIDE (THIS EVEN HAPPENS WHEN DRIVING 10 MPH). AFTER THE FIRST 15 STOPS IT WILL EVENTUALLY BEGIN TO STOP WITHOUT DOING THIS. BUT IN THE CASE OF THE ACCIDENT I HAD BEEN DRIVING FOR 30 MINUTES AND THE CAR FAILED TO STOP. (2) I WAS DRIVING 20 MPH WITH 3-4 CAR LENGTHS BETWEEN MYSELF AND CAR IN FRONT OF ME. THE BRAKES DID NOT STOP IN TIME. I HIT THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. (3) I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO THE CHEVROLET DEALER ON 3 OCCASSIONS FOR THIS PROBLEM. THEY KEEP TELLING ME THAT THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE BRAKES. THEY SAY THAT THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO DO THAT. IF THAT WERE THE CASE, WE WOULD ALL BE DEAD. THE FIRST 3 YEARS THAT I HAD THE VEHICLE IT DID NOT DO THIS, SO OBVIOUSLY THIS IS NOT WHAT IT IS SUPPOSED TO DO. I EVEN HAD THE DEALERSHIP SIGN A PAPER STATING THAT HE COULD NOT DO ANYTHING TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM, SO THAT I WILL HAVE WHEN I DO HAVE TO HANDLE THIS IN A LEGAL MANNER. AFTER DRIVING THE VEHICLE AND EXPERIENCING THE BRAKE FAILURE, MY MECHANIC SAID THAT THE BRAKES ARE DANGEROUS BUT THAT HE CANNOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH THEM WHEN HE TAKES THEM APART. THEREFORE HE CANNOT FIX IT.*AK

WE HAVE HAD SEVERAL PROBLEMS WITH THIS CAR, INCLUDING THE HEATING AND ELECTICAL SYSTEMS(ALTERNATOR, RADIO, ETC.)AND THE TRANSMISSION. THE MAIN ONE AT THIS POINT IS THE PEELING PAINT. THE CAR IS A VERY NICE MEDIUM BLUE, BUT IT LOOKS TERRIBLE DUE TO THE SPOTS OF GRAY WHERE THE PAINT JUST BUBBLED UP AND FLAKED OFF, VERY MUCH LIKE IT GOT A SUNBURN. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER IN OCTOBER 2000 FOR SOME WORK ON THE ALIGNMENT AND ASKED TO HAVE RESEARCHED WHETHER THERE WAS A POLICY ON FIXING THE PAINT, WHICH HAD ALREADY BEGUN PEELING OFF. HE TOLD ME HE WOULD LOOK INTO IT AND TOOK THE VIN NUMBER. ABOUT A WEEK LATER, THE TRANSMISSION BROKE AND I BECAME ABSORBED IN FIXING THAT PROBLEM, SO THE PAINT PROBLEM BECAME SECONDARY. SINCE I NEVER HEARD BACK FROM THAT DEALER, I CONTACTED ANOTHER ONE AND WAS TOLD RIGHT OFF THAT THERE WAS NO POLICY CONCERNING MY CAR, AND SUGGESTED THE PAINT WAS DAMAGED BY RAIN OR BIRD DROPPINGS. THE PROBLEM HAS CONTINUED TO GET WORSE. I HAVE ANOTHER BLUE CHEVY, A 1990 CAVALIER, WHICH HAS BEEN SUBJECTED TO THE SAME SUN AND RAIN AS THE CORSICA, AND IT HAS YET TO FLAKE ITS' PAINT. NOW I HEAR THAT GM HAD A 6/5 YEAR POLICY, BUT NOW THAT I HAVE FOUND OUT ABOUT IT, MY CAR IS TOO OLD. I AM VERY FRUSTRATED AND AM LOOKING FOR HELP.

MY MAIN CONCERN IS THE PAINT AND THE AIRCONDITIONING. THE PAINT BEGAN TO PEEL RIGHT AFTER I BOUGHT IT AND I WAS NOT AWARE OF A RECALL AND COULDN'T AFFORD TO HAVE IT REPAINTED. IT LOOKS LIKE IT HAS A DISEASE. THE AIR CONDITIONING QUIT LAST SUMMER AND I HAVE A HEART CONDITION. I HAD TO HAVE A BAG OF ICE WITH ME ALL THE TIME TO STAY COOL, BECAUSE, AGAIN I DID NOT HAVE THE FINANCES TO GET IT FIXED. THE POWER LOCKS AND MY HORN JUST QUIT WORKING AND THE FUSE IS IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND, SO I'M REALLY JUST HOPING SOMEONE CAN TELL ME HOW TO CHANGE THAT. I CAN'T FIND IT AND I HAVE A CORSICA AUTO BOOK FROM AUTO ZONE. I APPRECIATE ANY HELP YOU CAN GIVE. I WOULD REALLY LIKE TO GET MY CAR REPAINTED. I THINK I SHOULD BE ENTITLED TO THE RECALL.

THE HEAD GASKET CRACKED/BROKE. I SMELT THE ANITFREEZE AND OPEN THE HOOD TO SEE IT DRIBBLE FROM THE HEAD GASKET. THE CAR DEALER IS FIXING IT FOR ~$800. THE CAR IS STILL YOUNG AT 95K MILES. PREVIOUSLY I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR 3-4 TIME TO CHECK THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE, WHICH NEVER MOVES ABOE THE 1/8TH MARK. SO I NEVER GOT ANY INDICATION THAT THE ENGINE HEATED UP TO LEAD TO THE GASKET FAILURE. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE FOR SUCH A LOW MILEAGE. THEY HAD A RECALL FOR 1995 CHEVY/PONTIAC SISTER CARS FOR THE SAME ISSUE, IS WHAT THE DEALER TOLD ME. SOUNDS LIKE THEY ARE ALL RELATED.
THE PAINT ON MY 1996 CHEVROLET CORSICA HAS BEEN PEELING OFF FOR OVER A YEAR NOW. FIRST I NOTICED LITTLE SPOTS HERE AND THERE, BUT NOW THEY ARE ALL OVER. THE ROOF TOP IS ALMOST COMPLETELY GONE! I CAN'T TAKE IT TO A CAR WASH BECAUSE I 'M AFRAID I'LL COME OUT WITH A PAINTLESS CAR! *AK
