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

MY MOTHER SWERVED TO KEEP FROM HITTING A VEHICLE ENTERING THE HIGHWAY. SHE ENDED UP IN THE ONCOMING TRAFFIC LANE. HER CAR WAS HIT BY A PICK UP TRUCK, SPUN AND WAS HIT AGAIN BY THE TRUCK. TRAFFIC WAS NOT HEAVY AND IT WAS ON A RURAL ROAD. HER AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY IN SPITE OF MULTIPLE STRIKES. WE WILL NEVER KNOW IF HER CAR CUT OFF DUE TO AN IGNITION PROBLEM OR IT WAS FAULTY AIR BAGS. SHE SUSTAINED CATASTROPHIC INJURIES INCLUDING A BROKEN NECK, BROKEN BACK, BROKEN WRISTS, BROKEN PELVIS, BROKEN LEG, BROKEN RIBS AND CHEST INJURIES. SHE WAS AIR LIFTED TO A TRAUMA CENTER. SHE DIED ON 6/9/09. THE AIR BAGS NEVER DEPLOYED WHICH COULD HAVE HELPED REDUCE HER INJURIES. *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.
