Description of the problem | I have a 2005 chevy aveo and recently was driving to work when it started to smoke and make funny noises, after being fixed at the dealership, i was told that the clutch was red hot, cracked the plate and the fly well and was a hazard to drive, i have only had the car three yrs and never did anything to cause this, i am wondering if this was a manufacture or mechanical issue with the car, i ended up paying 854$ to fix the car but for the time that i was without it, i had to take a bus to work for three weeks and rely on friends to help me out. Is this car safe? |
