1995 Chevrolet Corsica Body & structure Problems

Owner-reported complaints naming the body or structure system, filed with NHTSA

Data refreshed

Body & structure reportsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

WHEN THE ENGINE IS TURNED OFF, THE DOORS ALL UNLOCK AUTOMATICALLY. NOT ONLY IS THIS A MAJOR THREAT TO OUR SAFETY, THIS IS THE THIRD OCCASION ON WHICH MY CHILD'S FINGER HAS BEEN BADLY PINCHED AS SHE WAS TRYING TO UNLOCK THE DOOR AT THE VERY SAME MOMENT WHEN THEY AUTOMATICALLY UNLOCKED THEMSELVES. I HOPE THIS HAS STOPPED - VERY BAD IDEA!!!

Crash reported

PAINT HAS BEEN COMING OFF ALL OVER THE CAR, CAUSING RUST SPOTS. BRAKES SOMETIMES DO NOT CATCH AND YOU HAVE TO PUSH THE PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. ALSO THE BRAKE AND BRAKE PADS HAVE TO BE CHANGED ONCE A MONTH BECAUSE THEY WEAR OUT TOO QUICKLY. THE POWER LOCKS STICK IN THE COLD WEATHER AND WILL NOT LOCK OR UNLOCK UNTIL IT WARMS UP. WHEN I WAS IN A CRASH THE DRIVERS AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY CAUSING ME TO HIT MY FACE ON THE STEERING WHEEL. *AK
