What 1995 Chevrolet Monte Carlo owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
Transmission failled at 119461 reverse reaction drum out like alot of these models this year cost1945 to repair. Then, at 127892 the park neutral switch out/ anti lock light stays on ,turn signal switch doesn't work , air conditioner doesn't work, front rotors on car have to be special ordered because hubs machined short, and chevrolet has no recalls on any of it. Lots of people have problems with transmission, and some of the others to guess we will never buy another genral motors vehicle, and recomend that they wouldn't neither.
Consumer states of having problems with the brakes ABS system. Dealer was contacted. Mr
No summary listed for above vehicle.
Turn signal and brake lights went out. Also, ABS light came on. Contacted dealer. Please add VIN.
Abs light comes on. Anti lock brakes do not work. This light constantly stays on. Sometimes the brakes feel like they are locking up or braking apart.
Repeated brake repairs,and ABS brake failure is a ongoing problem that has not been resolved.
Since new brakes work inconsistently. Taken to 2 dealers and independent garage several times. The only answer they found was to adjust rear shoes. However this does not fix problem. Sometimes you step on the brakes and the car just won't slow down. Usually right before you run into something the brakes seem to grab. Whenever I have a friend drive my car they comment on how scary the brakes are. This car has a lot of basic flaws I can live with but I would like brakes. Thank you.
Replaced rotors and pads several times in a year rear brakes are allways out of adjustment.
Suspension systems experiencing continued noise, vibration and wandering, several repairs necessary to complete (rear springs coil, alignment and adjustment to tires), due to suspension system failure. Yh
