Chevrolet Aveo 2006 — Problemas reportados

The interior dash caught on fire and burned only in the middle of the dashboard. This happened hours after it started smoking inside the car and the headlights would not turn off even though they were already off.

Lights malfunction. Headlights dim intermittently, turn signal causes headlights to turn off, dashboard lights do not work, running lights work intermittently. The splice pack in the fuse box is burnt and so are the wires connected to it.

Front subframe. Pulls one way during acceleration and pulling the opposite way during braking

The splicer connected to the fuse box in the engine burns up after a while of use causing the Dash lights, right brake light and front marker light to not work at night. It is a major safety issue and hundreds/thousands of complaints online (via google) have been made about it burning up.

This is happening to my car. Would like them to fix it . Manufacture defect and it is a huge safety issue. Effect pedal function. Some customers may comment on an intermittent malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) being Illuminated with a message or an indicator that displays Reduced Engine Power. The technician may observe on a scan tool DTC P2138 - Accelerator Pedal Position (APP) Sensor 1-2 Correlation set as Current or in History. This condition may be caused by water intrusion into the instrument panel (IP) to body harness connector, which carries the APP sensor signals to the ECM/PCM. This water intrusion results in a voltage difference between APP Sensor 1 and APP Sensor 2 that exceeds a predetermined value for more than a calibrated period of time, setting P2138. This technical bulletin provides repair information for repairing the ip to body harness connector to correct a customer concern for intermittent malfunction indicator lamp (mil) illuminated with reduced engine power displayed and dtc p2138 set. Known issue. Has not been recalled yet. https://www.tsbsearch.com/Chevrolet/07-06-04-019E

I TRY TO PUT A SEAT BELT ON A CHILD IN THE BACK SEAT AND IT DOSE NOT WORK AT ALL. THE STEERING ON MY AVEO IS ALSO NOT SAFE IT FEELS AS IF MY AXEL ON MY CAR IS GOING TO BRAKE? ALSO THIS CAR HAS CAUGHT ON FIRE AS I WAS ON THE FREEWAY COMING FROM WORK. I HAVE REPLACE THE CADILLAC CONVERTER ON THIS CAR AS WELL AS 2,000 OTHER REPAIRS INTO MY CAR. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS KNOWING THAT ONE DAY WHEN I GET IN MY CAR IT MAY CAUGHT ON FIRE IF IT GET TO HOT. IT VERY SAD ALL I WOULD LIKE TO DO IS GO TO SCHOOL AND WORK GET HOME SAFE GUARANTEED EVERY DAY.

SO I WAS AT HOME AND MY CAR WAS PARKED OUTSIDE AND IT CAUGHT ON FIRE IN THE INSIDE. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT CAME AND PUT OUT THE FIRE. IT DAMAGED THE DASHBOARD AND THE WINDOW. I HAVE READ THAT IT IS A RECALL ON MY VEHICLE WHICH CAUSES IT TO CATCH ON FIRE. MANUFACTURER RECALL NUMBERA140093 NHTSA RECALL NUMBER14V261 RECALL STATUSRECALL INCOMPLETE

IN OCTOBER 2016 MY 2006 CHEVROLET AVEO LS HATCHBACK'S BATTERY DIED, UNABLE TO JUMPSTART ANYMORE. I REPLACED THE BATTERY AND THE AIRBAG LIGHT ON THE DASH HAS ILLUMINATED SOLID SINCE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT IN AN ACCIDENT. THE GM DEALERSHIP I TOOK IT TOO WASN'T ABLE TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE. THE VEHICLE HAD 130,000 MILES AT THE TIME THE BATTERY DIED AND THE AIRBAG LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AT THE TIME THE AIRBAG LIGHT ILLUMINATED. I NOW DO NOT ALLOW ANYONE TO RIDE WITH ME BECAUSE I'M AFRAID THAT THE AIRBAGS WILL MALFUNCTION.

MY 06 CHEVY AVEO HAS HAD ISSUES SINCE I PURCHASED IT LAST YEAR. UNFORTUNATELY I AM STILL MAKING PAYMENTS ON THIS PAPERWEIGHT. I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER CHEVEROLET AGAIN. THATS MY LARGEST ISSUE IS THAT I BOUGHT A CHEVY. AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON AFTER HAVING THE BATTERY DEAD TWICE BECAUSE OF THE ALTERNATOR GOING BAD TWICE. IM UP FOR INSPECTION AND THIS CAR WILL NOT PASS. READING HOW THIS ISSUE HAS NEVER BEEN RESOLVED FOR ANYONE AND CHEVROLET WONT OWN UP AND TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR VERY IMPORTANT SAFETY FEATURE, WHATS THE POINT IN EVEN TRYING BUT TO THROW THIS VEHICLE IN THE GARBAGE? LAST TIME I TOOK MY AVEO IN FOR A RECALL ON THE MODULE, THEY SAID THEY FIXED IT AND THEY DID NOT BECAUSE ITS STILL BURNING UP, SO I JUST TRY TO NOT DRIVE AT NIGHT. I HAVE A TWO YEAR OLD AND THREE YEAR OLD AND IF THOSE AIRBAGS RANDOMLY DEPLOY AND WE GET INTO A CAR ACCIDENT, THEY ARE GOING TO HAVE A LAWSUIT ON THEIR HANDS.

ABOUT 6 WEEKS AGO SMELLED SOMETHING BURNING. PRIOR TO BURNING SMELL, THE DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS ALL INSIDE DASH LIGHTS AND CLOCK LIGHTS AND GEAR SHIFT LIGHTS WENT OUT WHILE CAR WAS IN MOTION ON A MAJOR CITY STREET. ALL LIGHTS STAYED OFF FOR ABOUT 20 MINS. DAYTIME RUNNING LIGTS NEVER CAME BACK ON. CLOCK LIGHTS STILL GOES OFF AN ON. DASH LIGHTS AND GEAR SHIFT LIGHTS CAME BACK ON ONCE. BUT HAVE BEEN OFF A MONTH NOW. REPORTED TO GM. RECALL ON DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS FIXED FREE. BUT THEY SAID NO RECALL ON WIRING OF LIGHTS. I AM NOT THE ONLY OWNER THAT HAS THOS PROBLEM THERE ARE MANY WHO HAVE WRITTEN COMPLAIYS ON GM. RECALL WEBSITE. I HAVE PICTURES OF BURNT FUSE CONNECTOR RELAY THAT CONTROLS ALL LIGHTS. 10 MINS OF MECHANIC CHECKING THE PART WAS SO HOT HE COULDN'T TOUCH IT. ON 8/09/2016 TERRY CULLEN FIXED RECALL. I PAYED THEM $100.00 TO CHECK PROBLEM ABOUT LIGHTS THEY SAID THEY NEEDED $400 MORE DOLLARS FOR 4 HOURS OF MORE LOOKING. MY FAMILY MECHANIC FOUND PROBLEM WITH IN 10 MINS...... DEALER.. ALL ABOUT MONEY! I THINK THEY SHOULD HAVE SAW THE PROBLEM OR EVEN KNEW IT.

THIS CAR HAS A DEFECTIVE THROTTLE BODY AND IAC(IDLE CONTROL ASSEMBLY) .I HAVE TO TRY TO CRANK IT 7-8 TIME BEFORE IT WILL STAY RUNNING.I AM PHYSICALLY DISABLED AND ON A FIXED INCOME ,THEY TOLD ME THAT IT WILL COST $1000 TO $1500 TO FIX THIS CAR WHICH THERE IS NO WAY I CAN PAY THIS LARGE AMOUNT. I BELIEVE THAT CHEVORLET SHOULD DO THE RIGHT THING AND PUT THERE DEFECT ON THE RECALL LIST.

DASH AND SHIFTER LIGHTS WENT OUT AND CAME BACK ON AND EVENTUALLY WENT OUT COMPLETELY- WOULD NOT COME ON UPON STARTUP. SOME FRONT AND REAR LIGHTS AS WELL. BLINKERS & FLASHERS STILL WORK. HAVE CHECKED ALL FUSES AND BULBS. NEEDS ELECTRICAL REPAIR.

ON A WINTER MORNING I WENT OUT AND STARTED MY CAR TO GO TO WORK, I GOT ON THE ROAD AND REALIZED THAT MY DASHBOARD , HEATING CONTROL, AND SHIFTER LIGHTS DID NOT WORK. I MOVED THE SETTINGS SWITCH AND NOTHING CAME ON. I HAVE CHECKED THE FUSES. THEY ARE FINE. I DID SOME RESEARCH AND IT SEEMS THAT MANY AVEOS HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM. AND THE ONLY FIX IS TO REWIRE THE SYSTEM. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE. IF I TAKE IT TO THE SHOP IT'S GOING TO COST ANYWHERE BETWEEN 50-100 DOLLARS OR MORE. IF ITS A PROBLEM TO THE CONSUMERS THEN IT SHOULD BE A RECALL AND NOT JUST A MANUFACTURING DEFECT. IF THIS IS A WIRING ISSUE THEN IT COULD POSSIBLY END UP CAUSING A FIRE.

THE SAME TIME THE RECALL FOR DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS MODULE CAME MY DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS INDICATOR STARTED FLASHING AND MY AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON. I TOOK IT TO DEALER TO FIX DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS MODULE, I ALSO HAD AIRBAG LIGHT CHECK AND THEY SAID THE WIRING HARNESS MELTED AND IT COST ME OVER $300.00 TO FIX. IS THIS CONNECTED TO DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHT MODULE PROBLEM? IF SO I WOULD LIKE MY MONEY BACK! LET ME KNOW PLEASE.

MY KEY WAS STUCK IN THE IGNITION BETWEEN THE "ACCESSORY" SETTING AND HAVING THE CAR RUNNING. I GOOGLED THE PROBLEM; RECOMMENDED FIX WAS TO REMOVE FUSE FOR RADIO, SO I DID. I WAS ABLE TO REMOVE KEYS FROM IGNITION BUT WHEN I WAS READY TO LEAVE AGAIN I COULD NOT SHIFT OUT OF 'PARK.' I PUT THE RADIO FUSE BACK IN, AND MY GEARSHIFT & TRANSMISSION WORK PERFECTLY. EVERY TIME I GET OUT OF MY CAR I HAVE TO PULL THE RADIO FUSE OUT, REMOVE MY KEYS, THEN INSTALL THE RADIO FUSE AGAIN SO THAT I CAN GET OUT OF 'PARK' WHEN I NEED TO DRIVE LATER. *TR

BOTH THE DRIVERS AND PASSENGERS AIRBAG LIGHTS REMAIN ON NO MATTER IF PARKED OR DRIVING. BOTH DRIVER AND PASSENGER AIRBAGS DO NOT APPEAR TO BE WORKING. FEAR THAT BAGS WILL NOT DEPLOY IN A CRASH. FEEL GM NEEDS TO RECALL THIS ISSUE, DEALERS ARE CLUELESS, I DO NOT INTENT TO HAVE THIS FIXED OR EVEN DIAGNOSED BASED ON THE SHEER QUANTITY OF SAME/SIMILAR COMPLAINS WITH NO CLEAR CUT RESOLUTION. PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF LIGHT REMAINS ON AT ALL TIMES WHETHER SOMEONE IS SITTING IN THE SEAT OR NOT, DRIVER'S SIDE AIRBAG LIGHT REMAINS ON AT ALL TIMES NO MATTER IF PARKED, RUNNING, IN REVERSE, NEUTRAL, OR DRIVE. I SERIOUSLY HOPE THIS CAR DOESN'T KILL ME. SEEMS WITH ALL OF THE AIRBAG SAFETY RECALLS, THIS ONE NEEDS TO BE ADDED. IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT COULD CAUSE DEATH. *TR

MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON ALL OF THE TIME. I TIGHTEN THE GAS CAP AS THE MANUAL STATES AND IT REMAINS ON. ALSO, THERE COULD BE POSSIBLE PROBLEMS WITH THE GAS LINE AS THE CAR IS MAKING A LOUD SOUNDS WHEN I ACCELERATE AND SMELLS LIKE GAS.

AFTER 6 MONTHS, I CONTACTED CHEVROLET WHO REPLIED THAT THE PARTS WERE STILL NOT READY AFTER NO RESPONSE FROM CHEVROLET. I HAD TO DO THE LEG WORK MYSELF. THEIR ABSOLUTE DISREGARD FOR IMMEDIATE ACTION IS UTTERLY REPREHENSIBLE. PEOPLE ARE BEING KILLED OR INJURED BECAUSE OF THEIR LACK OF OR INABILITY TO ADDRESS THE SITUATION. *JS
