MY CHEVROLET AVEO 2006 AUTOMOBILE HAS SEVERAL ISSUES THAT NEED TO BE ADDRESSED IMMEDIATELY. MY CAR HAS ISSUES WITH SHIFTING AND IT SUDDENLY SPEEDS UP FOR UNKNOWN REASONS. 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. I RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL NOTICE LAST YEAR AND WAS TOLD THAT I WOULD BE CONTACTED BY MAIL WHEN PARTS WERE READY. 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...

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HWY ABOUT 60 MPH AND TRIED TO PUSH THE GAS BUT ALL IT DID WAS SPUTTER AND SLOWDOWN. HAD TO PULL OVER AND SEE WHAT WAS WRONG. COD NOT FIND ANYTHING SO I STARTED IT UP AGAIN AND THE SAME THING. IT JUST SPUTTERS. SO I DROVE TO A SERVICE STATION (VERY SLOWLY) THAT I JUST HAD MY OIL CHANGE THE PREVIOUS DAY THINKING THEY MAY HAVE DONE SOMETHING. AFTER THEY CHECKED IT, THEY SAID IT WAS NOTHING RELATED TO THEM BUT THAT THEY HOOKED IT UP TO A MACHINE AND IT WAS READING 11 DIFFERENT TYPES OF CENSORS CAUSING IT TO MISFIRE. THEY HAD JUST HAD IN A 2007 CHEVY COBALT DOING THE SAME THING THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON. WONDERING IF THE RECALL FOR THE 2006 AVEO FOR THE DRL WOULD CAUSE THESE PROBLEMS?! THEY SERVICE TECH MENTIONED MORE THAN LIKELY IT...
