The steering wheel always shakes and grinds. The brakes squeal for no reason. The engine makes a loud noise and sounds louder at running now, I hade it looked at and they said nothing is wrong there is something wrong it uses way to much gas and it makes to many noises. The engine just does not sound good and it makes a loud grounding noise.

I'm a owner of a 2011 Chevrolet aveo. 65,000 miles. I only had this car for about 15 months I have change out tires twice since I had it, I got my car fixed on 4 times already one being spark plugs, the container that holds the antifreeze replace, the brakes, and also the part that holds the oil that is removed during oil change metal was stripped when I went for my first oil change and I had to get that replaced...it slows down going up a heel and also when turning left or right especially on a heel. Just the other day I was driving up a heel and my brakes wouldn't push down my car had a electrical glitch that made my clock restart...also there is a weird noise my car has been make from day 1 when I start driving it sounds like I'm driving a small helicopter that's about to take off I've been told that it was how those cars sound.....idk what to believe I hate I ever got this car the dealer dont even want the car back they only offered me 2,500 for the car I paid 11,000 for.I was told its not in high demand no one wants the car....

Approaching a three-way intersection with a stop sign with intent to stop and turn right. Vehicle suddenly accelerated without accelerator input from driver. Driver was unable to brake/stop vehicle or effectively control steering/path of travel. Vehicle, according to state patrol, gains an estimated speed of 65 mph through intersection and collides with embankment/mountain hillside. At this time, car became airborne to an estimated height of 28' and landed on front driver side of vehicle first. Front airbags failed to deploy upon impact. Driver sustained a serious tbi(traumatic brain injury) & concussion due to blunt force trauma to the head due to lack of airbag deployment. Owner still continues to suffer from side effects of the tbi injury and wants to notify the public that life-threatening issues exist with this vehicle. To date, GM has issued two major recalls on this vehicle pertaining to what lead/caused the accident.

Picked up car after being in back and forth all week at lucas Chevy, in NJ. The car was driven less than 40 miles after they replaced the steering rack. Picked up on wed 8/8/12 after car was supposed to be done on 8/7. I had to bring the car back on 8/9/12 as the car was pulling and steering wheel off center. They never aligned the front end! I had to drop car back on 8/9/12 again that night as steering was binding and shuddering again!the dealer called me that Friday 8/10 and said the pick up the car everything was fine, it was low on fluid. When I checked the fluid on wed 8/8 the fluid was clear as power steering fluid is. When I picked the car back up on 8/10/12 I had to bring back again because P/S reservoir was soaked with fluid/I also saw they switched P/S fluid to transmission fluid!the service manager who didn't even know where the reservoir was or how to remove the engine cover wiped it clean and said have a nice day. On 8/12/12 while trying to back in driveway the steering locked and is now clunking with a metallic grind and also the brake fluid reservoir was wet with brake fluid again after cap was replaced two months ago! I also noticed they replaced both outer tie rod ends without telling me or putting it on the paperwork!the car is so dangerous it had to be towed to lucas Chevrolet again!they are being dictated on what to do by GM legal as I had enough and filed a lemon law claim!its been to 3 dealers and has had a new steering column, intermediate shaft, angle sensor, SRS coil, new tie rod ends and that just in the steering alone! what right is right, they did fix the clunking in the rear from the drive shaft on the first try!

Brake fluid leaks from master cylinder resovoir. Tsb for the 2010 models but the 2011S also do it!replaced and still leaks. Power steering has a screeching, rubbing sound and gets hard to turn. The dealer I bought the car, verified the issue, but service manager and advisor who drove the car and admit there's an issue said they don't want to work on my car!very dangerous situation!
