| 2004 | ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:COOLING SYSTEM | I WAS DRIVING MY 2004 CHEVY AVEO (WITH 70K MILES) AND WITHOUT ANY WARNING THE ENGINE STARTING MAKING A LOT OF NOISE. I WAS ABOUT A BLOCK FROM HOME, AND WHEN I PULLED IN, SMOKE STARTED POURING OUT OF MY ENGINE. THE THERMOSTAT HOUSING HAD BUSTED WHICH IS APPARENTLY A VERY COMMON COMPLAIN WITH THIS CAR, AND THE MANUFACTURERS ARE CLEARLY AWARE OF THE ISSUE SINCE THEY HAVE MADE THE REPLACEMENT PART OUT OF METAL. I DON'T KNOW YET WHAT KIND OF DAMAGE THE ENGINE HAS SUSTAINED. *TR |
| 2008 | AIR BAGS | MY SISTER RECENTLY CUT HER HAND WHEN SHE GRABBED THE INSIDE DOOR HANDLE ON MY 2008 CHEVROLET AVEO. WHEN WE LOOKED CLOSER AT THE HANDLE, IT APPEARS TO BE SEPARATING AT THE TOP JOINED SEAMS. IT HAS A VERY SHARP EDGE TO IT SIMILAR TO THE LID OF A PULL TOP CAN. I DON'T TRANSPORT MANY PEOPLE SO I WAS NOT AWARE OF IT'S CONDITION. I'M GLAD THAT THE INCIDENT DID NOT INVOLVE A CHILD BECAUSE THEY COULD HAVE SUSTAINED A SERIOUS CUT. I HAVE NOT HAD ANY WRECKS OR DAMAGE TO MY CAR TO RESULT IN THE DOOR HANDLE SEPARATING. I FELL THIS IS A SERIOUS ENOUGH SITUATION TO WARRANT REPORTING. I'VE ALSO HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE AIRBAG LIGHT CONSISTENTLY MALFUNCTIONING. IT'S BEEN SUPPOSEDLY FIXED TWICE..BUT IT STILL MALFUNCTIONS. *TR |
