NHTSA Complaint #10593812 — 2006 CHEVROLET AVEO

MY DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS HAVE PRETTY MUCH NEVER WORKED, I HAVE ALWAYS HAD TO MANUALLY ENGAGE MY LIGHTS OTHERWISE THE DTR LIGHTS WOULD GO FOR A FEW MINUTES THEN BURN FLICKER AND SHORT OUT, ONLY WORKING WHEN I TURN THE LIGHTS ON THE MANUAL WAY. MY BACK TURN SIGNAL SHORTED OUT AROUND EARLY 2012. NOT ONLY DID IT STOP WORKING BUT IT MELTED THE LIGHT SOCKET HOUSING, MAKING IT SO I HAD TO REPLACE THE WHOLE LIGHT SOCKET. MOST RECENTLY, EITHER MAY 14TH OR 15TH, I STARTED UP MY CAR, BUT I COULDN'T PUT IT INTO GEAR, IT WAS IMPOSSIBLE TO GET IT INTO GEAR, SO WE TRIED TO TURN OFF THE CAR TO FIGURE OUT OUR NEXT MOVE. BUT THE KEY WOULD NOT COME OUT, SO WE HAD TO RESTART THE CAR AND FINALLY GOT THE GEAR TO ENGAGE, AND WE TOOK IT HOME AND HAD TO UNPLUG THE BATTERY BECAUSE WE COULD NOT TAKE OUT THE KEY BUT DID NOT WANT IT TO WEAR OUT THE BATTERY. *TR
