2010 Chevrolet Aveo

FOUR TIRES OF AUTOGRIP P308 40K/AG308P1402 WERE PURCHASED IN LATE NOVEMBER 2015 WHEN THE VEHICLE HAD 61674 MILES ON IT. THE VEHICLE WAS IN FOR SERVICE IN LATE FEBRUARY 2017 WITH ONLY 69933 MILES WHEN THE MECHANIC NOTICED THE TIRES WERE WORN TO THE WEARBAR. THIS WAS NOT THE LOCATION WHERE THE TIRES HAD BEEN PURCHASED. FOR WARRANTY REASONS THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCATION WHERE THE TIRES HAD BEEN PURCHASED AND HAD THEM REPLACED, THE COMPANY THAT THE TIRES WERE ORIGINALLY PURCHASED FROM DID NOT REPLACE TIRES FOR FREE, BUT PRORATED THE COST OF NEW TIRES. THEY NO LONGER CARRY THIS BRAND AND CLAIM THE VEHICLE CAUSED THE PROBLEM. MY SPOUSE AND I FEEL THAT THE TIRES THEMSELVES WERE DEFECTIVE, BUT DO NOT SEE ANY RECALL ON THIS PRODUCT. THIS IS THE SIXTH VEHICLE THAT WE HAVE OWNED IN OUR ADULT LIVES AND HAVE NOT EXPERIENCE SUCH A QUICK PRODUCT FAILURE WITH TIRES. WE BELIEVE AN INVESTIGATION IS IN ORDER AND THANK YOU FOR REVIEWING THE CONCERN.

I PURCHASED MY CAR IN AUGUST OF 2010 BRAND NEW IN AUGUST OF 2011 I HAD TO REPLACE ALL 4 TIRES THE TIRES THAT WERE ON WERE HANKOOK SO THEY PUT 4 NEW TIRES ON IN JULY 2012 MY TIRES WERE SHOT AND I WENT TO GET MY CAR INSPECTED AND IT WOULDN'T PASS ON THIS ONE HANKOOK SAID THE TIRES THAT WERE ON IT WERE 60,000 TIRES SO THEY WOULD PAY 80 % AND I HAD TO PAY 20% AND I COULD PICK WHATEVER BRAND OF TIRE I WANTED I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO PICK SO WENT WITH YOKOHAMA AND THOSE WERE PUT ON SOMEWHERE BETWEEN 25 TO 26,000 +MILES WELL HERE I AM AUGUST NOW OF 2013 I KNEW MY TIRES WERE SHOT SO SET IT UP FOR INSPECTION AND OF COURSE IT WOULD NOT PASS I HAD TO HAVE 4 NEW TIRES AGAIN.

(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. AS WE WERE WAITING FOR A TOW TRUCK, A MECHANIC WHO WAS DRIVING BY LOOKED UNDER THE HOOD AND DISCOVERED THAT OUR SERPENTINE BELT AND ANOTHER BELT HAD BROKEN. WE TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC AND WERE TOLD THAT THERE WAS ENGINE DAMAGE AND THE HEAD GASKET NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AND POSSIBLY THE WHOLE ENGINE. ALSO, WE HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE TIRES NUMEROUS TIMES FOR NO APPARENT REASON. THEY KEEP GOING FLAT. ACCORDING TO A CONSUMER AFFAIRS WEBSITE, THESE ISSUES SEEM TO BE COMMON WITH AVEO OWNERS.
