I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER FOR REPAIR THEY SAY THEY CAN NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG THAT THEY WOULD HAVE TO BE DRIVING IT WHEN IT SHUTS DOWN. SO THIS IS HOW IT HAPPENS I AM ON THE HIGHWAY DRIVING AND OUT OF NOWHERE MY ENTIRE CAR JUST SHUTS DOWN AND I AM TRYING TO COAST TO SAFETY. IMAGINE THAT NOT BEING A SAFETY ISSUE AND THAT THIS CAR HAS NOT BEEN RECALLED YET. RECENTLY I HAVE BEEN SPEAKING WITH ANOTHER PERSON WHO OWNS THE SAME EXACT CAR AND HE TOLD ME THAT HIS CAR HAS SHUT DOWN JUST LIKE THAT ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. SO IF THIS IS HAPPENING TO ME AND ANOTHER RANDOM PERSON THAT I AM SPEAKING WITH I AM WONDERING WHY THIS CAR IS NOT BEING RECALLED.

    SO AS I'M DRIVING (IN MOTION) WHETHER IT BE 30 MPH OR 70 MPH MY CAR DIES OUT. DOES NOT SHUT OFF, BUT I DO NOT HAVE ANY ACCELERATION. I HAVE TO IMMEDIATELY PULL OVER BECAUSE I CANNOT MOVE. I SPOKE TO MECHANICS AND THEY ARE SAYING IT IS THE THROTTLE BODY. AS I RESEARCH THIS, THERE HAS BEEN SO MANY COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS AGAINST GM AND NOTHING NOT ONE THING HAS BEEN DONE. DO THEY NOT UNDERSTAND THAT AS YOUR DRIVING 70 MPH AND THEN HAVE NO CONTROL OF SPEED IN THE PASSING LANE OR REGULAR LANE THAT YOU CAN GET KILLED MY ANOTHER CAR? IF YOU GO UNDER CHEVROLET YOU CAN SEE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS. I ASKED IF THIS WAS UNDER WARRANTY AND IT IS NOT. IT IS NOT PART OF THE POWER TRAIN. YET GM KNOWS THERE IS A DEFECTIVE PART AND THEY ARE JUST NOT WILLING TO FIX IT. THEY WILL WAIT TIL SOMEONE DIES FIRST AND THEN FIX IT. I AM FILING A COMPLAINT REGARDING THE THROTTLE FOR IT IS JUST NOT MY CAR FOR I HAVE RESEARCHED HOW MANY CARS THIS HAS HAPPENED TO, AND KNOWING THAT GM KNOWS ABOUT THIS INDICATED ON COMPLAINTS TO GM THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED FOR SAFETY REASONS. IF SOMETHING WAS TO HAPPEN WHILE I WAS DRIVING MY GRANDCHILDREN AROUND OR WHEN MY DAUGHTER DRIVES THE CAR I WILL NEVER FORGIVE GM. ESPECIALLY WHERE THEY KNOW ABOUT THIS PART. NOW I PUT THIS AS OF 11/1/15 BUT THAT IS NOT THE ONLY TIME IT'S BEEN ONGOING SINCE THEN. I AM VERY WORRIED TO DRIVE THIS CAR, YET IT IS VERY EXPENSIVE TO HAVE THIS FIX AND IT IS NOT UNDER A $2,000 WARRANTY INSURANCE I PURCHASED WHEN I BOUGHT THIS CAR. APRIL 2014 IS WHEN I BOUGHT THIS USED CAR AND HAVE HAD IT TOWED 2X ALREADY AND ENGINE LIGHTS ON 2X HAD TO HAVE REPAIRED. SO THINKING THERE HAS TO BE RECALLS ON THIS CAR AND NOTHING IS BEING SHOWN.

    I BOUGHT BY CHEVY AVEO IN 2013 WITH ROUGHLY 27,000 MILES ON IT. I LOVED THAT CAR AND IT WORKED WELL FOR ME UNTIL RECENTLY AT 45,000 MILES. WHILE DRIVING, 15-20 MINUTES INTO THE DRIVE, THE CAR WOULD LOSE POWER AND FAIL TO ACCELERATE. I WOULD PUT THE PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO THE GROUND AND THE SPEDOMETER WOULD BARELY CREEP UP. THE FIRST TWO TIMES IT DID THIS IT "SNAPPED OUT" OF IT AND DROVE THE REST OF THE WAY WITH NO PROBLEMS. THIS LAST TIME I HAD SOME LEAKING RADIATOR FLUID WHICH THE DEALER WROTE OFF AS A "LOOSE RADIATOR CAP". WHEN THE CAP WAS SCREWED BACK ON IT STILL STALLED FOR MY FATHER, AND IT WASN'T FROM OVERHEATING. THE DEALER SAYS THEY CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH MY CAR. I CURRENTLY HAVE IT AT ANOTHER MECHANIC FOR A SECOND OPINION. I AM EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED WITH CHEVROLET. WILL SELL THIS CAR ASAP AND NEVER BUY FROM CHEVY AGAIN!

    I BOUGHT MY CHEVY AVEO LT IN 2013 WITH A LITTLE OVER 39,000 AND WITHIN 6 MONTHS I NOTICED THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG LIGHT WAS ONLY STAYING ON SOMETIMES; AND THEN A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO I NOTICED THAT IT WAS STAYING OFF. I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALER AS I BOUGHT AN EXTENDED WARRANTY, AND THEY TOLD ME IT WAS THE SENSOR IN THE SET AND THAT IT WOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED AT THE COST OF $1600 AS IT IS NOT COVERED BY MY WARRANTY AS IT IS A FACTORY DEFECT. I DID A LOT OF LOOKING ON THE INTERNET AND FOUND THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM WITH THE AVEO SINCE AT LEAST 2006. THE ONE PERSON THAT FINALLY GOT GM TO FIX THEIRS AFTER A LOT OF WORDS BACK AND FORTH SAYS IT WENT OUT AGAIN 6 MONTHS LATER. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS MATTER AS THE PASSENGER IS AT RISK AND IN MY CASE IT IS MY 13 YR OLD GRANDSON I'M RAISING THAT I TAKE BACK AND FORTH TO SCHOOL EVERYDAY MUCH LESS EVERYWHERE ELSE. I'M 68 AND DO NOT HAVE THE KIND OF MONEY THAT IS NEEDED TO FIX THIS PROBLEM SO I HOPE G M WILL PLACE THESE CARS ON RECALL AND FIX THIS PROBLEM IN THE AVEOS BEFORE SOMEONE IS HURT OR DEAD. *TR

    MY DAUGHTER BROUGHT A 2011 CHEVY AVEO IN WISCONSIN. WHEN SHE CAME BACK HOME THERE WERE SEVERAL OCCASIONS THAT I USED HER CAR. THE FIRST TIME I DROVE HER CAR I DROVE IT TO WORK. WHILE I WAS DRIVING AT 55 MPH THE CAR JERKED VERY HARD TO THE LEFT. I HAD TO REALLY HOLD THE STEERING WHEEL HARDER THAN USUAL TO GAIN CONTROL OF THE CAR. I CALLED MY DAUGHTER AND ASKED HER ABOUT THE CAR JERKING TOWARDS INCOMING TRAFFIC. MY DAUGHTER STATED THAT THE CAR DID JERK SOMETIMES. I TOLD MY DAUGHTER TO GO GET THE CAR CHECKED OUT. I TOLD HER TO HAVE THEM CHECK THE JERKING OUT AND WHY THE CAR WAS WEARING OUT TIRES SO FAST. MY DAUGHTER HAD THE CAR CHECKED AND SHE WAS TOLD HER CAR COULDN'T BE ALIGNED. MY MOM, MY OTHER DAUGHTER, HER FATHER, STEP FATHER AND MYSELF DROVE THE CAR AT DIFFERENT TIMES AND IT JERKED WHILE EACH OF US DROVE IT. UNFORTUNATELY, MY DAUGHTER LOST HER LIFE IN AN ACCIDENT IN THAT SAME CHEVY AVEO IN 2014. I WAS TOLD TO COME TO THE HOSPITAL BECAUSE THERE WAS AN ACCIDENT ON AUGUST 1 AT 11:45. WHEN I ARRIVED AT THE HOSPITAL THE CORONER AND THE STATE TROOPER MET ME IN A WAITING ROOM. THEY EXPLAINED TO ME THAT MY DAUGHTER PASSED AWAY IN THE CAR ACCIDENT SHE WAS INVOLVED IN. SHE HAD CROSSED OVER THE MEDIAN LINE AND ON THE SHOULDER. SHE TRIED TO CORRECT HERSELF AND GET BACK IN HER LANE AND WAS HIT ON THE DRIVER SIDE AND KILLED INSTANTLY. WHEN THEY TOLD ME THAT I KNEW THAT THE CAR HAD JERKED ON HER AGAIN AND THIS TIME COST MY DAUGHTER HER LIFE. YES, IT WAS FOGGY AND DAMP FROM THE RAIN THAT EVENING. THE POLICE STATED THAT A TIRE WAS SLICK AND THE ROAD WAS WET. I WAS VERY GLAD THAT SHE WAS TALKING TO HER FRIEND THAT NIGHT. HER FRIEND WAS THE ONE WHO CALLED THE POLICE WHEN SHE HEARD MY DAUGHTER SCREAM AN THE LINE WENT DEAD. I JUST WANT SOMEONE TO KNOW THAT SOMETHING WAS WRONG WITH THAT CAR.

THOUGHT IT WAS MY TIRE BUT COME TO FIND OUT IT WAS LITERALLY MY WHOLE WHEEL AND IT RIPPED OUT MY BACK BUMPER. MY TIRE IS IN GOOD SHAPE BUT MY WHOLE WHEEL BEARING CAME OFF. THE DRUM LUG NUT IS STILL INTACT. I BELIEVE THIS IS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT THAT NEEDS TO BE BROUGHT TO YOUR ATTENTION. MY LIFE WAS JEOPARDIZED AND I'M SO GLAD I WASN'T ON THE FREEWAY BECAUSE IF SO I MAY NOT BE HERE TODAY. I STRONGLY SUGGEST SOME ACTION NEEDS TO PARTAKE IN THIS SITUATION AND MATTER! *TR

    I BOUGHT A CHEVY AVEO BACK IN FEB 2014. WAS ON WAY HOME SOMETIME IN AUGUST AND GETTING ON TO HIGHWAY FROM RAMP WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AND RUNNING HOT ACCORDING TO TEMP GAUGE. I GOT IT TOWED TO SHOP AND CALLED THE NEXT DAY TO FIND THEY COULD NOT FIND NOTHING WRONG!! SO I PICKED UP THE CAR AND ABOUT THREE WEEKS LATER ON WAY HOME THIS TIME ONLY ON BACK ROADS DOING 35, THE CAR DOES SAME THING. WHAT IS IT GONNA TAKE FOR CHEVY TO FIX THIS ISSUE THAT I HAVE SEEN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT. I AM NOT ABLE TO JUST GO BUT ANOTHER CAR!!!! WAKE UP CHEVROLET!!!!!!!!!!!!! *TR

    I WAS PULLING S ONTO HWY 515 FROM HWY 382 IN ELLIJAY, GA WHEN A CAR HIT MY DRIVERS SIDE PASSENGER DOOR. ON IMPACT, MY SEAT BELT BUCKLE BROKE RELEASING ME INTO THE VEHICLE CAUSING MULTIPLE INJURY. I WAS TAKEN TO PIEDMONT MOUNTAINSIDE HOSPITAL. I HAD RIB FRACTURES; CHEST WALL CONTUSION; SEVERE CERVICAL AND LUMBAR SPINE SPRAIN;SEVERE WHIPLASH; AND LEFT HAND LACERATION. I WAS PRESCRIBED NARCOTIC PAIN MED; MUSCLE SPASM MED; MED FOR INFLAMMATION. NEXT WENT TO KAISER URGENT CARE FOR SEVERE BACK SPASMS. MUSCLE SPASM MED CHANGED TO STRONGER MED; AGAIN NEXT WEEK CHANGED AGAIN. MOM HAD TO COME FROM TN; TO STAY WITH ME SO MY HUSBAND COULD WORK; I COULDN'T GET UP AND DOWN MYSELF & HAD TO SLEEP IN RECLINER DOWNSTAIRS IN MY LIVING ROOM FOR 3 MONTHS. WHEN SWELLING FINALLY REDUCED MRI SHOWED NO SPINAL FLUID FROM C5-C7 DISCS; SURGERY SCHEDULED FOR MAY 28 FOR FUSION. MAY 1, MY HUSBAND WAS FIRED FROM HIS JOB; SEPARATION NOTICE STATED 'RELEASED WITHOUT PREJUDICE' WE NO LONGER HAD MEDICAL INSURANCE; BUT GOT IT FROM MARRIOTT AT COST IMMEDIATELY AND HAD DISC FUSION ON MAY 28; STILL IN PHYSICAL THERAPY. ON MEDICAL LEAVE OF ABSENCE MAR 3-JULY 28; MY POSITION AT MARRIOTT HAD TO BE FILLED I HAD TO AWAIT ANOTHER POSITION, APPLY FOR UNEMPLOYMENT. GM WOULD NOT DISCUSS THIS DEFECTIVE SEAT BELT ISSUE BECAUSE THE CAR WAS TOTALED AND I NO LONGER HAD IT. I TRIED CONTACTING AN ATTORNEY, BUT THEY DID NOT TAKE MY INJURIES SERIOUSLY AND EVEN THOUGH I GAVE THEM THE EXACT LOCATION OF THE VEHICLE AND THEY AGREED TO DO AN INVESTIGATION THEY DID NOTHING AND MY CAR WAS SOLD FROM CO-PART. MY MAIN CONCERN IS THAT ANYONE WHO STILL HAS A CHEVROLET AVEO KNOW THAT THIS HAPPENED. ALLSTATE AND I HAVE PICTURES OF THE DAMAGED SEAT BELT. I HAVE FINALLY RECOVERED ENOUGH TO GO BACK TO WORK. MY GREATEST FEAR IS THAT ANOTHER SEAT BELT BUCKLE IN ANOTHER CHEVROLET AVEO COULD BREAK AND SOMEONE COULD GET KILLED. *TR

  • Engine and engine coolingFiled Aug 19, 2014

    FOR APPROXIMATELY THE LAST YEAR I HAVE BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH THIS CAR BEING SLUGGISH ON AND OFF AND NOW IT SPORADICALLY HAS NO POWER, WHEN YOU PRESS ON THE GAS, YOU LOOSE POWER AT TIMES. NOW IT JUST DIES WHENEVER! I HAVE HAD IT TO MULTIPLE SHOPS INCLUDING THE CHEVY DEALER AND NOBODY KNOWS WHAT IS WRONG. WHAT IS IT GOING TO TAKE? HAVING IT STALL IN TRAFFIC AND HAVING SOMEONE DIE? APPARENTLY THIS IS AN ISSUE WITH MANY CHEVY AVEOS! I REALLY THINK THIS NEEDS TO BE LOOKED INTO! WOULD YOU WANT YOUR WIFE, HUSBAND,SON, DAUGHTER,MOTHER OR FATHER DRIVING A CAR THAT IS THIS UNRELIABLE? *TR
