I bought this car 8 mths ago, a few weeks after I bought the car the windshield wiper just flew off, a few weeks after that the cruise control quit working, a month after that the A/C kept switching off on its own and back on hours later, now the engine light has come on and the car hesitates and doesn't appear to be shifting gears when its suppose to, I took it to the dealer, they said it was a PCM update which they didn't charge me, a few days later it is hesitating again, the engine light is back on, the cruise control still doesn't work. Talk about a lemon.

2006 & 2007 chevy aveo svm models. Both alternators failed within 1 month of each other. Dealer claims to have replaced 'many' alternators for aveo model in just the last week. Dealer claims that aveo has this problem with alternators, but they are not covered under warranty. Alternator causes massive electrical problems throughout car. One car lost battery, dome light, radio, wipers, throttle sensor due to malfunctioning alternator. Alternator on aveo should be a recall item as it is a prevalent issue for the model. It should not be a 'dealer makes money' since car is 3 months out of warranty.
