Description of the problem | Multiple problems, started with daytime lights going out, clock going out and coming on with correct time, dealer replaced clock and said daytime lights related and should be fixed, it was not. Next all the instrument panel lights went out, repaired by dealer again at my costs. Next the tail lights and brake lights went out. Each time it was the wiring in the fuse box under the hood. All repaired at my expense. The dealer acted like they had no idea of the multitude of electrical problems with the aveo but i think they've known, just read some of the blogs-this is a very common problem. It's frightening to drive this car just waiting for a fire. From may 2013 to present i continue to have these problems. The daytime lights and now the clock again going out. The whole fuse box needs replaced as far as i'm concerned but the dealership keeps giving me the runaround--- no more chevys or gm for me. |
