Tech lubricated. 11 failed attempts on our part/in letters to GM CEO's about our safety concerns-no response, interest or reply back. Service refused viewing our video of our highway driving, tired of GM service "loop hole excuses" gammot runaround system & getting know results. Please help us, we bought this car for road trips around North America, we clearly would be risking our lives doing hwy posted speeds that are as high as 80 miles per hour in some states. We are done with this Aveo 5!
