After 50s K miles, one of my tire's valve started to leak. I changed all 4 tires. The tire place had only 195s, so I bought them. Wider tires are nice, but my bad mpg went down more.   When did you guys changed your timimg belt? right on 60K miles?

Replying to: c118fe (Mar 25, 2009 4:08 am) Those were original tires. They looked used but not completely gone. I think I could have 10K or 15K miles more out of those tires until that air leaked.

Replying to: wave54 (Nov 11, 2005 6:58 am) They do that on purpose. The whole idea is to say that they don't know what's wrong until you either get frustrated and give up...or you run out of your warranty and then you have no rights as a consumer under the california lemon law...even though these cars are lemons. I've had my second engine break down on me and I'm still paying on the car. I refuse to pay the payments on it anymore because I've had to put more money into the car than I've made on payments.   I went to class action world and I am trying to start a class action suit because there was a recall on chevy aveos for the idler/timing belt problem but only for specific cars....problem is...the problem is on all of their engines for chevy aveos and they know it. We just need enough people to come forward.

Replying to: wave54 (Feb 03, 2006 2:21 am) I full on agree with you. I will not reccomend a purchase of a chevy aveo, the timing belt / idler issue is very dangerous because when the idler gets stuck at full-throttle, the timing belt snaps and your car cannot go any more. I've r..on the road that can be life threatening. I have replaced one engine so far and the second motor did the same thing to me. I had to replace the engine myself at 98,000 miles because it was no longer under warranty. I've put so much money into this car it isn't even funny and I'm done with it completely. I still owe money on the loan but it is that bad that I am going to leave it on the side of the road and wait for the loan company to reposess it. That's how extreme it is. GM will do nothing to make up for their faulty engines if you are past warranty and they like to pretend that there is nothing going on with their cars. They are dangerous.   I contacted class action world and am interested in having others make a complaint and join in on a class action suit with GM because they are screwing people.

#1556 of 1578 Brake Issue by cjones11 May 09, 2009 (9:22 am)
Have an 05 Aveo w/76,000m to date. Base model without ABS. Lately, when started and first put into gear the brakes are not responsive for a half minute or so. The pedal gets very hard to depress and will not come to a complete stop. This is not every start but at least 3-4 out of ten. Does return to operate normal (when it wakes up) System has recently been flushed (problem existed before) and the brake h/w, drums and pads are good. Anyone else get this? Suggested repairs?
