Description of the problem | Within the first year of buying my aveo i had to replace headlights 10x i kept taking the car in to get checked and they said it was fine, then one time they said just needed a better fuse (the changed it) worked for about a year then signal lights kept going out, then tail lights. Thought there was short took car in few times they said nothing wrong. Tired of taking the car in, i am a very busy person. So we have been dealing with this problem for about 6-7 years now the dash lights have completely gone out now and won't come back on, leaving us with 1 headlight, 1 tail light and only occasional rear signals. And always smells light wires burning. In sept of 2014 we received a letter recalling the car for lighting problems and still nothing about getting fixed!!! This is only one of many complaints for this car. *js |
