My daughter was driving on the highway and streets the car will loose speed while your driving and stall as if it's not getting fuel. She was on the expressway and lucky she was in the right lane and was able to coast to the shoulder before the car died out. I had this problem check several times and replaced the fuel pump and fuel sensor and still am having the problem. I have an appointment with the dealer for a diagnostic test on 10-1-2015

I was driving on the highway when the engine light came on. The vehicle ran for a few minutes before it started losing power and chugging along on the highway. When I pulled off, I had to flutter on the gas to keep the car from stalling at the stop sign. To make it home on the back roads, I did not stop at stop signs for fear of the car stalling, I had the gas pedal to the floor and it was only going approximately 10 MPH. I did not drive it to the dealership, it was towed. They found several engine control module updates. Reflashed ECM code s47490d. Performed campaign 11290 spark plugs and boot. While at dealership, tech found rear shocks were leaking. E5807 - rear shock absorbers replaced, both sides.

2009 aveo, started april 2010, at a traffic light, the car began to shake. The tach needle was jumping between 500 and 1500. It was acting like it was about to die than tach jumped up. I heard the engine surge. Light changed and car barely moved. I pressed gas pedal to floor but car would lunge forward than act to stall. I put injector cleaner in next fuel tank. Thought it was fixed. 3-weeks later as I was crossing a four lane road, car act as I described above, tach needle bounce between 500 and 1500, car sputtered and surged. Took car to gm dealer, their computer found no problems or codes. No engine light, no code, cleaner mass air flow sensor, got gas at different station. July 2010 took car to dealer again. Still no codes, found no problems. I thought problem might have to do with high humidity, since that was the only commonality I could find with each incident. The problem occurs every couple of weeks, I have gone through a complete tank of gas with no problem. It occurs at different time s of day, different outside temperatures, and weather getting cold it does it. Took car to dealer october. They said possible the 10% ethanol gas maybe problem, so use premium gas. After three premium gas fills. Temperature below freezing car sputtered and surged than stalled. Rolled to stop, turned key off, than started car up and drove home with no problems. Three days later, another below freezing temp, car began slowing down at 40mph than surged. When the car was slowing down the tach was dropping off than jumped back up with the surge. As of today the car has 11158 miles for less than two years old.
