I traded in a 2004 p.t.cruiser to get a 2005 chevy aveo at the time it had 21000 miles when I got it. My warranty was good till 36000. I had lots of issues with a noise that still to this day has not been corrected even after three attempts under my car by the chevy service dept. I then had a computer recall or something that had to be replaced I also had a gas cap that malfunctioned and a clock that had to be replaced. Those are the non life threatening issues. I had an incident inside of the original warranty where the car threw parts out of the engine. It was the serpentine belt and the bracket that was metal that it was mounted on broke out of the engine as I was driving it. I am currently at 55000 and I have the power train on it. In the last month I have had the car in my possession 1 week the rest it's been in the service dept. A month ago the plastic and yes that's plastic housing for the thermostat blew apart on the interstate causing us to have to dial 911 to get help because we were trapped. Two weeks ago it spit out the timing belt and the valves got bent and the valve cover was damaged. We don't know what particles ended up in the engine for now. I have contacted chevrolet on all these issues and I asked them before my warranty went out and right after the first incident to give me back the money for the car. They called me today and said I didn't have a case because the warranty was out I reminded them I had been asking since before at the first incident with the serpentine and bracket and they said sorry the warranty is out. I reminded them I have pictures of those parts and can prove it but that still wasn't good enough! I spoke to hannah a district specialist today and that is who lied to herself and said these occurrences were after the warranty. I have proof can you please help before my family dies and then we have dependents who will own the very company the gov't is trying to bail out. I need you to intervene before I go to court over this.
I have a 2005 chevy aveo that has repeat problems with the clutch getting hot and seizing the transmission, I had this fixed one in june of this year and today the clutch is doing the same thing again, this time I almost got in 2 accidents, couldn't shift right and was unsafe to drive.
2005 aveo 3rd time with this problem it will not come out of park it sticks .2 times the dealer told me it was the shifter. 3rd time they told me it was a bad connection to the brakes. Know sense they stated it's fixed when you press the brake the shift clicks loud also you don't have to push the shifter down it just slides up and down.. Not safe I need a good car that I feel safe in.
My clutch let go in my car, I was told by the mechanic that the clutch got too hot and cracked the plate and the flywheel, it was not supposed to do that, the car was having trouble shifting and I could of been hurt.
2005 chevy aveo clutch defect.
Dt: went to enterprise rent-a-car, and rented a 2005 chevrolet aveo. Vehicle was parked at a store. The consumer tried to back out of the parking space, and the car would not go into reverse. It seemed to just lock. The consumer had to use her strength to push it into reverse. Then, took vehicle home, parked it, and tried it later. It did the same thing. The consumer refused to drive it. *ak
