MY HOLD BUTTON IS CONTINUOUSLY ON WHEN IN TURN THE A/C DOESNOT WORK THIS CAR SHOULD BE RECALLED AND NOT ALLOWED TO BE ON THE ROAD , I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER CHEVY AS LONG AS I LIVE I CANNOT BELIEVE THE COMPLAINTS ON THESE CARS AND NOT A RECALL. *TR

BOUGHT 2009 AVEO LS SEDAN BRAND NEW FOR DAUGHTER SO SHE WOULD HAVE A SAFE CAR FOR COLLEGE. WHEN THE CAR WARMS UP IT WILL NOT RESPOND TO GAS PEDAL INPUTS. THIS HAPPENS ON AND OFF AT RANDOM TIMES, SOMETIMES IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION, OTHER TIMES ON THE HIGHWAY. WE HAVE PARKED THE CAR AS IT IS UNSAFE FOR OUR CHILD TO DRIVE IN THE CURRENT CONDITION. TRIPS TO THE DEALERSHIP RESULT IN "WE CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG". FRUSTRATING.... THIS WAS AN EXPENSIVE LESSON TO NEVER BUY A GM PRODUCT AGAIN! *TR

GOT THIS CAR BRAND NEW OFF THE LOT WITH ONLY 43 MILES ON IT. AROUND 3000 MILES I HAD MY FIRST MAJOR PROBLEM. I WAS GOING DOWN I-95 IN ST. PAUL, MN AT AROUND 75 MILES/HR AND THE CAR JERKED THEN CUT OFF. MIND YOU THIS IS RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC AND I HAD 2 TODDLERS IN THE CAR WITH ME. WE ALMOST GOT REAR ENDED BY AN 18 WHEELER BEFORE I COULD GET THE CAR TO DRIFT TO SHOULDER. TOOK 3 WEEKS TO FIX THE FUEL PUMP BC THE CAR WAS SO NEW THEY HAD NOT MADE EXTRA PARTS YET. ABOUT A YEAR LATER I STARTED HAVING ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS- ONSTAR NOT WORKING OR RANDOMLY TURNING ON, CLOCK RESETTING ITSELF TO RANDOM TIMES, DASH LIGHTS EITHER GOING OUT OR ALL STAYING ON, HEADLIGHTS RANDOMLY WORKING, AND OF COURSE I TOOK TO 2 DIFFERENT CHEVY DEALERS AND NEITHER COULD TELL ME WHAT WAS WRONG ONLY THAT IT WASN'T COVERED UNDER WARRANTY =/ ONCE THE CAR TURNED 4 YEARS ON IT HAS BEGUN EATING FUSES AND COIL PACKS. THIS IS AFTER THE COIL PACK AND SPARK PLUGS/BOOTS PUT ON BY CHEVY AFTER THAT RECALL. IT IS EATING COIL PACKS EVERY 4-6 MONTHS AND AT 150-200$ A POP IT IS EXPENSIVE ESPECIALLY ONCE YOU FACTOR IN MECHANIC LABOR. I HATE THIS CAR AND WISH I NEVER GOT IT. I MISS MY 96 DODGE CARAVAN WITH THE OIL LEAK AND MANUAL WINDOWS. I FELT MUCH SAFER IN THAT OLD VAN AND IT WAS MORE RELIABLE- IT NEVER LEFT ME EVEN WITH A BLOWN HEAD GASKET. CHEVROLET SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF THEMSELVES FOR PUTTING THEIR NAME ON A NOW DEFUNCT POS FOREIGN DAEWOO CRAP AND SELLING IT TO US AS AMERICAN MADE. THERE ISN'T ANYTHING MADE IN NORTH AMERICA. THERE ARE A FEW PARTS MADE IN MEXICO BUT MOST ARE KOREAN MADE. I WOULD NEVER HAVE GOTTEN IT IF I HAD GLIMPSED THOSE DAEWOO STAMPS UNDER THE HOOD, TRUNK, AND CAR JAMS. *TR

VEHICLE JUST LOCKED UP, AND I WAS FORCED TO COAST DOWN A HILL FROM MY HOUSEINTYO UNCOMING TRAFFIC.. THIS HAS BEEN THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS OCCURRED WITH THIS VEHICLE, THE FIRST IME, I CALLED TRIPLE AAA AND HAD THE CAR TOWED TO ARROWAY CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP IN MOUNT KISCO NY. THIS IS WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. THIS OCCURED WITH A 2005 CHEVROLET CAVALIER THT I PURCHASED FROM ARROWAY IN MOUNT KISCO, IT OCCURED SO FREQUENTLY, THAT I TURNED IT IN AND PURCHASED THE AVEO. UNFORTUNATELY, THE SAME THING IS HAPPENING WITH THIS CAR.

THE CAR LOST POWER FOR NO REASON . IT DID NOT FULLY STALL BUT LOST POWER AND WOULD NOT RESPOND. IT WOULD LURCH FORWARD, BARELY GO, THEN RECOVER SLIGHTLY. THIS HAPPENED SPORADICALLY AND WAS FRIGHTENING AND DANGEROUS. THE BATTERY LIGHT BEGAN TO GO OFF AND ON. MECHANICS COULD FIND NOTHING WRONG AND BATTERY OK. IN NOVEMBER, CAR LOST POWER IN TRAFFIC, ALMOST HAD WRECK, BARELY MADE IT TO SHOP. "STRANGELY SWOLLEN" BATTERY FOUND AND REPLACED. COMPUTER AND ALL SYSTEMS CHECKED. INCIDENT HAPPENED AGAIN. BACK IN SHOP. CLUTCH REPLACED, TUBE REPLACED IN ENGINE, ETC. COST $ 1500. CAR SEEMED TO RUN FINE BUT ONLY FOR DAYS. BEGAN DOING SAME THING AGAIN. BUT WHEN I TAKE IT TO MECHANICS, CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG BECAUSE PROBLEM COMES AND GOES. IT SEEMED TO POSSIBLY BE TRIGGERED AND HAPPENED MORE OFTEN IF I USED ONSTAR BUILT IN PHONE. HAD IT TURNED OFF AND THOUGHT THAT SOMEHOW FIXED PROBLEM BUT IT HAPPENED AGAIN YESTERDAY IN TRAFFIC WITH MY 93 YR OLD MOM IN CAR. TERRIFYING.. CAN'T GET OUT OF WAY IF CAR COMING IN INTERSECTION. NO ONE HELPS ME FIND A SOLUTION. I CONTACTED GM ONLINE THEY SAID THEY KNOW OF NO SUCH PROBLEM. HUNDREDS OF POSTS ONLINE FROM AVEO OWNERS WITH SAME PROBLEM. SOMEONE IS GOING TO DIE IF THIS ISN'T MADE PUBLIC.. WE NEED A RECALL . HELP PLEASE! *TR
