Does your car have to be in running condition to be eligable for the cash for clunkers program?

Friday, July 24th, 2009 | Research

I was just wondering because I have a 1988 Cavalier that has 6,000,000 mechanical and electrical problems but it runs. ANY information would be helpful.

To determine if your vehicle is qualified check the epa/mpg rating for that vehicle when new…If it saids it should be under 18 miles per gallon, than yes it will qualify. However; I believe your vehicle was rated 22 city and 26 highway; and therefore not qualifyed..

It needs to run, AND it must have a low EPA mileage number (combined 18 MPG or less). Your car will not qualify. The feds are trying to take gas hogs off the road. Your Cavalier originally got too good mileage. Sorry.
