I TOOK IT TO A REPAIR SHOP WHERE THEY COULD NOT FIND THEM PROBLEM YET STILL CHARGED ME $220 BECAUSE IT JUST STARTED RANDOMLY. AS SOON AS I TOOK IT BACK TO THE PLACE I WAS STAYING IN FLORIDA AND TURNED IT OFF, I TRIED TO START IT AGAIN AND IT WOULD NOT. MY SISTER AND I PUSH STARTED IT AND I TOOK IT TO A CHEVY DEALER REPAIR PLACE AND THEY INFORMED ME THE CLUTCH SWITCH NEEDED PROGRAMMED AND I PAID $90 FOR THAT. THE CAR WAS FINALLY STARTING SMOOTHLY AGAIN UNTIL 10/27/2014 WHEN AGAIN THE CAR WOULD NOT START. I TOOK IT TO THE CHEVY DEALERSHIP O BOUGHT IT AT AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT I I NEEDED A NEW IGNITION SWITCH AND THAT IT WOULD COST $315. I AM TIRED OF THIS CAR I HAVE ONLY HAD IT FOR FOUR YEARS AND IT ONLY HAS 65000 MILES ON IT.

AT OTHER TIMES THE VEHICLE WILL BEGIN DECELERATING WHILE MY FOOT IS ON THE ACCELERATOR. THE CAR WILL BE UNRESPONSIVE TO ANY ATTEMPTS TO PICK UP SPEED FOR 3-5 SECONDS THEN ALL OF SUDDEN KICK INTO GEAR AND DRIVE LIKE NORMAL. THIS HAPPENS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBOR SPEEDS JUST THE SAME. THERE'S NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. THE "ALMOST" IDENTICAL ISSUE HAPPENED TO ME TODAY (09/15/2014). I WAS ON MY WAY TO WORK WHEN THE 2010 AVEO LOST ALL ENGINE POWER. I MADE IT TO A GAS STATION (THE CAR IS STILL THERE) AND CALLED MY WIFE TO COME GET ME. THANK GOD WE JUST PURCHASED A NISSAN SENTRA JUST 2 DAYS EARLIER!!!!!!!! *TR

THE 2010 CHEVROLET AVEO WORKED FINE ON 8/13/14. DROVE IT ALL DAY LONG WITH NO ISSUES, PARKED IT WHILE SHOPPING FOR 1 HOUR. CAR DID NOT START WHEN I CAME OUT TO LEAVE. PAID $125 GET IT TOWED TO NIGHTINGALE'S AUTO TECH & REPAIR (12331 31 MILE RD, ROMEO, MI 48065. 586-752-4514) APPROX 18 MILES AWAY, ON 8/14/14. NIGHTINGALE'S FOUND BLOWN 2AMP IGNITION FUSE (UNDER HOOD) CHARGED US $79.18 & TOLD US TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE THEY DID NOT HAVE THE ABILITY TO FIX IT ANY FURTHER (ON 8/15/14). WE DROVE IT TO BUY 2 AMP FUSES AT A AUTO PARTS STORE 1 BLOCK AWAY IN CASE IT HAPPENED AGAIN, WHICH IT DID & WE REPLACED THE 2AMP FUSE AGAIN. WE DROVE THE CAR STRAIGHT TO THE HEIDEBREICHT DEALERSHIP A COUPLE MILES AWAY & THE FUSE BLEW AGAIN TRYING TO GET IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPT., ON 8/15/14. TODAY IS 8/26/14, AND THE CAR IS STILL AT HEIDEBREICT'S SERVICE DEPT, THEY DO NOT KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. THE SERVICE REP, [XXX], HAS TOLD US OVER SEVERAL PHONE CALLS THAT THEY COULDN'T FIND THE PROBLEM & HAD TO TO CALL GM FOR CONSULT.CHRIS C. TOLD ME THAT GM RECOMMENDED THE TECH SHOULD INSTALL 4 SEPARATE FUSES JUST TO TROUBLESHOOT, & I HAD TO PAY FOR THAT TO FIND THE PROBLEM. AT THIS POINT, GM & THE TECH DETERMINED THAT THE DIGITAL INSTRUMENT PANEL WAS BAD & THE DEALERSHIP ORDERED A NEW ONE. THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THAT MY COST SO FAR WOULD BE OVER $1360. THEY TRIED THE NEW INSTRUMENT PANEL& IT DID NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM (FUSES STILL BLOWING). ON 8/26/14, HEIDEBREICHT'S TOLD ME THAT GM TOLD THEM TO ORDER ANOTHER INSTRUMENT PANEL & IF THAT DIDN'T WORK, THEN GM WAS GOING TO SEND THEIR ENGINEERS OUT TO HELP THEM FIX THE PROBLEM. OUR CAR HAS BEEN DOWN FOR THIS PROBLEM FOR 13 DAYS NOW & THERE IS NO RESOLUTION YET, EVEN FROM GM ENGINEERS. ARE THERE ANY RECALLS, TSB'S OR ANYTHING ON FILE FOR THIS ISSUE? IS IT RELATED TO THE HUGE IGNITION SWITCH RECALL?. GM SHOULD PAY FOR THIS!!! INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).*TR

THIS HAS HAPPENED EVERY FEW MONTHS. MOST TIMES THANKFULLY IT HAS ONLY HAPPENED IN PARKING LOTS. BUT IT HAPPENED TO ME WHEN I PULLED OUT ON A BUSY HIGHWAY AND IT HAPPENED TO MY SON TODAY AS HE PULLED OUT ON A BUSY HIGHWAY. I AM SCARED FOR MY SON'S SAFETY. I PAID A LOT FOR THIS CAR AS A USED CAR FROM A CHEVY DEALER I CAN NOT SEEM TO GET ANYONE WHO KNOWS WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. THE CHEVY PLACE SAID THEY COULD ONLY HELP IF HAPPEN WHILE THEY HAD IT. OTHER PLACES HAVE SAID THE SAME. I THINK GM SHOULD TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR MAKING A CAR WITH A DANGEROUS PROBLEM. I HAVE SEEN A LOT OF REVIEWS OF AVEO OWNERS WHO HAVE THIS PROBLEM AND ARE FACING THE SAME FRUSTRATION. COULD YOU MAKE GM AT LEAST GIVE PEOPLE WHO HAVE BOUGHT THIS CAR THEY WANT TO GET RID SOME KIND OF VOUCHER FOR A TRADE IN. THEY COULD USE IT FOR THE SAKE OF THEIR FAMILY'S SAFETY AND THEIR SANITY. *TR

LUCKILY THE SEAT BELT SAVED ME FROM GOING THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD, HOWEVER HAD THE AIRBAG DEPLOYED LIKE IT WAS SUPPOSE TO I WOULDN'T BE ON TEMPORARY DISABILITY AND IN THE MOST PAIN I HAVE EVER EXPERIENCED IN MY LIFE. MAJOR CHEST CONTUSIONS, MASSIVE BRUISING ACROSS THE CHEST AND ABDOMEN FOR WEEKS, STRAINED BACK AND NECK AND THERAPY FOR WEEKS ARE JUST A PART OF WHAT I GOT TO EXPERIENCE. NOT TO MENTION A LOVELY TRIP TO THE ER BECAUSE I HAD TROUBLE BREATHING AT THE TIME OF THE ACCIDENT. *TR

2010 CHEVROLET AVEO. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO A FAULTY RADIATOR AND UNSATISFACTORY CUSTOMER SERVICE AT DEALERSHIP. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED IN SEPTEMBER 2013, HE STARTED EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS WITH THE COOLING SYSTEM, WHERE THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE WOULD START TO CLIMB ABOVE THE HALFWAY POINT. THINKING IT WAS JUST LOSS OF COOLANT, HE ADDED MORE TO THE RESERVOIR, BUT TO NO AVAIL. HE DECIDED TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND IT WAS DETERMINED A RADIATOR PART WAS FAULTY. THE RADIATOR AND THERMOSTAT WERE REPLACED AT A COST OF $1,000. IT TOOK A WEEK AND A HALF, BEFORE THE VEHICLE WAS RETURNED TO THE CONSUMER. TOW MONTHS LATER, WHILE DRIVING, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED, WHEN HE ARRIVED TO HIS DESTINATION, HE EXITED THE VEHICLE, BUT DIDN'T FIND ANYTHING UT OF THE ORDINARY, HE RESEALED THE GAS CAP, BECAUSE HE KNEW SOMETIMES, THAT COULD CAUSE THE ENGINE LIGHT TO ILLUMINATED. HOWEVER, LATER ON WHEN HE TRIED TO DRIVE HOME, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT SHIFT GEARS OR GO OVER 40 MPH. THE CONSUMER TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A FRIEND, WHO WAS A MECHANIC. AN INSPECTION REVEALED IT WAS A TRANSMISSION PROBLEM RELATED TO THE INSTALLATION OF THE RADIATOR TWO MONTHS EARLIER. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER, WHERE THE REPAIR WAS MADE, UNDER THE POWER TRAIN WARRANTY. FOUR DAYS AFTER GETTING THE BACK, THE CONSUMER NOTICED A HOSE WAS HANGING FROM UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE. THE CONSUMER CALLED HIS MECHANIC FRIEND AGAIN, WHERE HE DISCOVERED THE TECHNICIAN AT THE DEALER, DID NOT RE-ATTACH THE TRANSMISSION TO THE RADIATOR. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED BACK TO THE DEALER.

THE BACK SEAT BELT BEHIND THE DRIVERS SEAT DID NOT LOCK UP LIKE IT WAS SUPPOSE TO ON IMPACTED, AND MY COUSIN HIT THE BACK OF MY SEAT AND BLACKED OUT. ALSO, WE HIT HEAD ON TO ANOTHER CAR AND THE ONLY AIRBAG THAT WENT OFF WAS THE DRIVERS SIDE AND MY HUSBAND WAS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. LUCKILY HIS SEAT BELT LOCKED UP OR HE WOULD HAVE HIT THE WINDSHIELD. *TR

I WENT TO START THE CAR AND IT WAS COMPLETELY DEAD, THE LIGHTS WORKED AND THE "DOOR AJAR" LIGHT WORKED ALSO, I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO A SHOP WHERE I WAS TOLD IT WAS THE IGNITION SWITCH. A NEW ONE WAS PUT IN, I PAID $553 TOOK THE CAR AND RAN ERRANDS. AFTER LEAVING THE CAR NOT RUNNING FOR ABOUT 1-1/2 HOURS I WENT TO START IT AND THE SAME THING HAPPENED. CAR WAS TOWED BACK TO SHOP WHERE MECHANIC CALLED CHEVY DEALER AND THEY TOLD HIM SINCE IT WAS AN AFTERMARKET PART, IT WASN'T COMPATIBLE. HE ORDERED A GM/CHEVY IGNITION SWITCH AND REPLACED MY BATTERY TOO. I PICKED THE CAR UP TODAY, RAN ERRANDS BUT LEFT THE CAR RUNNING. AS SOON AS I CAME HOME I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND WENT TO RESTART IT AND THE SAME THING HAPPENED. I CALLED THE SHOP AND THE OWNER CAME HERE AND OPENED THE HOOD AND SHOWED ME THAT THE FUSE BLEW, WHEN GOING TO PUT A NEW FUSE IN, IT STARTED SPARKING. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AS IT IS GOING TO WIND UP CAUSING A FIRE BECAUSE THERE IS OBVIOUSLY SOME SORT OF SHORT IN THE WIRING. I CALLED GM/CHEVY AND CONVENIENTLY AS OF 2010 MODELS IT IS ONLY COVERED UNDER THE BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY SO THEY WILL NOT DO ANYTHING. I THINK THEY KNOW THAT THIS IS A MALFUNCTION ON THEIR VEHICLES BUT THEY WON'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. PLEASE HELP *TR

WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE HEADING HOME, THE VEHICLE STOPPED. LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO COAST TO THE SIDE. I WAS TOLD IT WAS THE IGNITION COILS AND THAT THERE WAS AN OPEN RECALL ON THE VEHICLE FOR THIS ISSUE. I HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO A CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP. THEY FIXED THE PROBLEM SO I THOUGHT. NOW, ON OCTOBER 28, 2013 WITH MY 4 YEAR OLD SON IN THE CAR THE VEHICLE STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET. I HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE SAME DEALERSHIP. THIS TIME I WAS TOLD IT WAS MY FUEL PUMP, HOWEVER UPON PICKING UP THE VEHICLE, THERE IS A LOUD KNOCKING NOISE COMING FROM THE ENGINE AND IS SERIOUS SHAKING. THESE THINGS ARE VERY SIMILAR TO THE ISSUE WITH THE IGNITION COILS. LUCKILY TRAFFIC WAS NOT TOO BAD WHEN THE CAR STOPPED ON BOTH THE INTERSTATE AND WITH MY SON, THINGS COULD HAVE BEEN REALLY BAD. *TR

(THESE 2 TIRES COST ME $260 AND I DO NOT THINK THIS IS SOMETHING THAT IS NORMAL TO BE DEALT WITH EVERY YEAR. I HAVE NEVER EVEN HAD AN OLD VEHICLE THAT WENT THROUGH 4 TIRES EVERY YEAR

WE HAVE HAD NUMEROUS PROBLEMS WITH THE BATTERY NOT STAYING CHARGED. WE WOULD GET READY TO DRIVE IT AND WE WOULD NEED TO GET A JUMP START. IT GOT TO THE POINT WHERE WE CONSIDERED BUYING A PORTABLE CHARGER SO WE WOULDN'T HAVE TO WAIT FOR ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE. IN THE LAST INCIDENT, I WAS DRIVING AND ALL OF THE LIGHTS ILLUMINATED AT ONCE. THE POWER STEERING STOPPED WORKING AND THEN THE CAR STOPPED.
