| 2007 | AIR BAGS:FRONTAL:SENSOR/CONTROL MODULE | 2007 AVEO AIR BAG SYSTEM FOR PASSENGER READS OFF. CHEVROLET NOTIFIED THE DEALER THAT THE AIR BAG WAS ON EVEN THOUGH IT SAID OFF AND WOULD DEPLOY IF IN AN ACCIDENT. CUSTOMER WANTS THE PROBLEM FIXED ONCE AND FOR ALL. **NAR**KB THE ISSUE WAS WITH THE SENSOR IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. THE SENSOR DIDN'T CONSISTENTLY RECOGNIZE WHEN AN ADULT OCCUPIED THE SEAT. REPLACING THE SENSOR WOULD NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM AS IT IS A DESIGN ISSUE WITH THE SENSORS. *JB |
| 2004 | POWER TRAIN:AXLE ASSEMBLY:AXLE SHAFT | WHILE DRIVING ON I-94 MADE A SUDDEN DECREASE IN SPEED FROM 70 MPH TO 60 MPH AND CAR SWERVED OUT OF CONTROL, AND THE ONLY THING SAVING ME FROM FLIPPING THE CAR WAS AFTER MARKET RIMS AND TIRES. THUMP SOUND, SOUNDED LIKE A FLAT TIRE, CHECKED ALL THE TIRES AND THEY WERE FINE. CHECKED UNDER THE HOOD, ENGINE WAS TITLED TO DRIVER'S SIDE, AFTER INSPECTION ON SIDE OF EXPRESSWAY FOUND OUT THAT THE HALF SHAFT WAS COMPLETELY DESTROYED AS WELL AS TRANSMISSION MOUNT BOLTS. THERE IS NO REASON FOR THESE BOLTS TO FAIL IF THE CAR IS DRIVEN RESPECTIVELY. *AK |
