Aveo 4-cyl

  • 33,000 miles
The low beam headlights don't work anymore. Went to mechanic, who replaced bulbs with brand new ones, and they didn't work either. They tested fuses and said those were fine. They recommended I go to a Chevy dealership to fix it but don't have the money for all that. Running around at night to get home from work on a passenger-side daytime running light only, or high beams when no one's around. Help!

The dash lights, shifter lights and all console lights are out. This appears to be a known problem as I have found it all over the Chevy forum. Is there a recall on this? not real safe especially for my 16 year old daughter. Please let me know the fix and if there is a recall I can apply to this not so unique problem
