Description of the problem | 2004 chevy aveo. When driving vehicle in windy condition or near large vehicle(including pickup trucks and suvs) the vehicle's front end is blown very easily creating dangerous swerving and front end movement. I feel the vehicle is very unsafe to drive and needs safety testing done. Also, front end pulls hard to the left in all driving conditions. New tires have been added but did not solve problem. Front end also has bad bushings or struts. Car creaks when going over bumps or when pushing up and down on the front end. *jb |
