Chevrolet Cavalier. A good engine (L61)... but that's all. Literally everything else was ultra cheap and broke.
I had one of those too, was my first car. Got to 280,000km on it (had to hit the dashboard for the digital odo to appear), pretty much every feature was broken from the clock on the radio to the rear defroster and the A/C but it kept rolling. Until someone T-Boned me at like 30km/h coming out of a parking lot and absolutely OBLITERATED it. Such an unsafe vehicle
Ah, yes, I had to do the same thing to get my dash lights to turn on. Had to bop the top of the dash in the right spot. Eventually, I had enough and took apart the dash to put conductive grease on the instrument lights.
