Consumer Description

MY 2004 CHEVY AVEO HAS HAD MORE PROBLEMS THAN YOU CAN IMAGINE. I HAD TO REPLACE THE TIMING BELT TWICE, SEVERE ENGINE DAMAGE BOTH TIMES. OCEAN CHEVROLET AND GM WERE ABSOLUTELY NO HELP. ROTORS HAD TO BE REPLACED AT 48,000 MILES, AN EVAP LEAK FOR ANOTHER $600.00. BOTH TIMING BELT REPAIRS WERE OVER $2000.00 EACH. I HAVE PUT MORE INTO REPAIRING THIS CAR THAN I PAID FOR IT. GOT RUNAROUNDS FROM THE DEALER AND GM AND WOULDN'T RECOMMEND A CHEVY PRODUCT TO ANYONE. *TR
