2014 Chevrolet Spark Service and Repair Manual
This factory service and repair manual for the 2014 Chevrolet Spark has an unusually long trim list for a car this size, running from Byte, Cargo and DOT through LS, LT and LTZ to ZMX, all on the same four-door hatchback body and the same naturally aspirated 1.2L DOHC inline-four of 74 cubic inches. The mechanical content is therefore common to all seven, while the equipment that separates them shows up in the wiring diagrams and in the body and interior procedures.

Known issues on the 2014 Spark. Six recalls stand on the federal record. The most serious is a suspension fault: front lower control arm bolts left under-torqued can allow the arm to part from the steering knuckle while the car is moving, taking the steering with it. Two more cover a secondary hood latch that corrodes at the pivot and can let the hood swing open at speed. The rest involve radios that fail to sound warning chimes or lock up with a blank display. Complaints number 176, with 46 on the power train, 35 on the electrical system and 21 on the engine.
