What 1991 Chevrolet Corsica owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
Steering is very difficult, it turns very hard. Also, car makes a lot of loud noises. *ak dealer stated problem was with the steering rack.
I was told the some law states that my car can get painted with no cost to me because of the defect in the paint. Tons of corsicas have it happen all the time. My car is begining to look horrible with most of the paint pealed. No safety defect listed in summary.
Driving approximately 55mph and noticed smoke coming from the emergency flasher on top of the steering column, right turn signal would not work and then blinkers started blinking on and off without turning on. Parked vehicle and had it towed. Insurance felt that it was a mechanical problem and would not pay for it. Was told of investigation of flames in steering column by insurance co, and they would not pay because they felt it was a manufacturering defect.
Paint is peeling off the body of the vehicle at an incredible rate.
