2011 CAR LOST ACCELERATION HOLD LIGHT AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON HAD TO PUMP GAS PEDAL TO PREVENT CAR FROM CUTTING OFF . TOOK CAR TO CHEVY DEALER HAD TO PURCHASE WATER OR FUEL PUMP I FORGOT WHICH ONE. THEN RECEIVE RECALL FOR COIL.

DID NOT TAKE TO DEALER ADDED GAS TREATMENT TO FUEL AND CHANGED GASOLINE BRANDS. PROBLEM SOLVED FOR ABOUT TWO WEEKS. LOST ACCELERATION AGAIN. CHANGED AIR FILTER CAR WAS GOOD FOR ABOUT 2 DAYS. CONTINUED TO DRIVE CAR FOR NEXT SEVERAL YEARS WITH SAME PROBLEM. 2013 CAR NOT PRODUCING ANY HEAT ADDED ANTI-FREEZE, HEAT CAME OUT RIGHT AFTER. NEXT DAY NO HEAT AGAIN ANTI-FREEZE CONTAINER WAS EMPTY AGAIN. CONTINUED TO ADDED ANTI-FREEZE TO PREVENT CAR FROM RUNNING HOT. 2014 TOOK CAR TO DEALER FOR ANTI-FREEZE PROBLEM THEY REPLACED THE CONTAINER AND CAP (PURCHASED SEPARATELY) AND FLUSHED THE RADIATOR COST $312. TWO WEEKS LATER CAR RAN HOT STEAM SHOOTING OUT FROM UNDER THE HOOD. ANTI-FREEZE CONTAINER EMPTY AGAIN. RETURNED CAR TO DEALER WHERE IT IS NOW THEY TOLD ME I HAD BLOWN HEAD GASKETS AND THAT IT WOULD COST $1500 TO REPAIR ON A CAR I STILL PAY MONTHLY NOTES. THEY CALLED THE NEXT DAY TOLD ME GM WOULD COVER 60% OF THE COST AND I HAD TO PAY $600. I FEEL THAT GM SHOULD ADD THE 2009 CHEVROLET AVEO TO THEIR LIST OF RECALL AND REPLACE THE WHOLE CAR FOR ALL WHO HAVE PAID OUT MONEY FOR THESE REOCCURRING PROBLEMS BECAUSE THIS CAR IS A PIECE OF JUNK.
