Replying to: tmyles2 (Mar 19, 2008 1:41 pm) By the way, I was the proud owner of a 2005 Aveo Hatchback that certainly enjoyed its set of unique "circumstances", so I am no fan of this car. I say "was", because i unloaded it this past January while it still had a bit of value left on it. I also had clock issues (mine had a poor grounding connection, and once repaired, worked flawlessly for 2.5 years). The C/D player worked great for the first 6 months before acquiring the ability to skip tracks at any random time. It was on its 3rd sunroof when it sold (34,000 miles), and also had its shares of squeaks and rattles, along with the associated interior body parts coming loose and falling off. Having said all that, what is your goal here? I understand being upset with the reliability of the car, but very few class-action lawsuits involving automobiles are files over clock and stereo/audio issues. Most are from engine/transmission issues and safety issues. Don't get me wrong...I'm not trying to rain on your parade, its just that I don't see where you can go with this, unless you have a widespread safety or engineering issue. While there have been many posts about engine issues, these are not even a drop in the bucket when compared to the total Aveos sold. And, many of the engine related issues are related to broken timing belts, which GM says to replace every 60,000 miles (and many of these engines have exceeded this mileage without having the service done). In any case, I wish you luck and hope you arrive at some form of satisfaction...

Replying to: lisar082774 (Mar 18, 2008 8:40 am) My V6 Chevy S10 p/u with over 140,000 miles has never had the chain replaced. I was told by a mechanic friend that it is not necessary in this engine. The radio issue and clock are related to the ground wire to the chassis. There was posts on this forum a few times before. |

The way I look at it the seals were bad both times all before 100,000. This last time they said they either where a bad lot or put in wrong, I still had to pay another deductable. My heater went out during a blizzard we got 18 inches all roads were closed this is at 11:00 p.m. I work 2nd shift. I thought I was going to freeze to death, I was frozen, I have what you call Raynauds disease, once my digits get frozen then gangrene can set in. The first chevy garage did 4 valves and 1 lousy seal. I am sick of the dealers not doing a proper job. I am sick of GM, they keep producing this hunk of--------------. They do not have any recalls except seat belts, which neither garage took care of. I am having problems with fuel injector clogging up all the time even with a hot fuel injector cleaner. Driving with any wind the front end is all over the road. I even got pulled over by a cop for drunk driving and had not had a drink it was the front end. Every time I bring it into the garage they say they can not find anything. My 1st valve job my mileage went right down hill, I was getting 15 miles to the gallon they said there was nothing wrong with it this went on for 6 months, the 7 month every 30 miles used 4 gallons with today's price of gas thats when I needed the 2nd valve job done. I really don't care if the attorney get's most of the money, I want GM to start taking care of there problems. I have Fidility warranty company I got about 6 differnt answers they won't dispute it either, neither will the second chevy garage when I showed them the invoice from the first job they said: Oh My they did only half the job. I thought the warrany company was there to please you. We only pay for what the garage orders. I am sick of getting the run around. After the 1st valve job they could not tell me why the valves went, and you know something else has had to be wrong.The manager at the Chevy garage he said that the GM inspector said he would fix it this time but never again, he said it was due to reckless driving. What a joke. No it is time to quit complaining and do something about it. That is what I hope to achieve. |

Hmmm. I don't know about a class action suit. Like what was said before, it usually doesn't work unless there's a serious health or safety issue, not a reliability issue. There are plenty of crappy cars out there that are worse than this car and no one has won any lawsuits based on reliability. I think a better path would be to go to the agencies that are involved with quality control of automobiles. Maybe you can file a complaint with NHTSA. If enough people do that and there's a serious safety issue, they may issue a recall. |
