Description of the problem	I just bought this 2005 chevy aveo 2 wks ago when the alternator went out of my car and i was having surgery the next day then would need a car for work 2 days later, so i had no time to properly look for a car. I just came off the exit of a 4 lane highway 1. 5hrs away from home. As i was slowing to stop there was a bunch of white smoke (turned out to be steam) billowing out from under the hood and the car engine stopped running. A man helped push the car off the road and they looked under the hood and discovered the thermostat housing split apart. It's plastic! The housing was clearly defective since it was sheared in half as if cut with large knife. How stupid! He gave my husband a ride to the nearest napa auto parts where the ordered from another dealer. We had to wait 1. 5hr and the owner helped replace it. The new one was metal! Put antifreeze in and tried to start the car several times and it won't start. Had to have the car towed. I got on the computer for help diagnosing the problem and discover a million complaints on edmunds. Com, automotive forums, etc. That gm has known about this and other problems with this car for years such as plastic pully, timing belt breaks that completely kills the engine. That's where i found this site. This car is a lemon and should be recalled!!! Heck on this site there are complaints from 2011 and still no recalls! From what i learned reading all the complaints just about everything in this car is junk. I am not going to put another penny into this car. It's at the mileage range to replace the timing belt, the plastic pully, and the water pump, not to mention the electrical stuff. It would've been cheaper to rent a car for the 2wks. Struts busted. I'm gonna take the loss and never buy chevy again! Please help us owners get chevy to make this right. They and you have known the many problems a long time! Please do the right thing!

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
