Description of the problem | My chevrolet aveo 2006 automobile has several issues that need to be addressed immediately. My car has issues with shifting and it suddenly speeds up for unknown reasons. My check engine light comes on all of the time. I tighten the gas cap as the manual states and it remains on. Also, there could be possible problems with the gas line as the car is making a loud sounds when i accelerate and smells like gas. I received a safety recall notice last year and was told that i would be contacted by mail when parts were ready. After 6 months, i contacted chevrolet who replied that the parts were still not ready after no response from chevrolet. I had to do the leg work myself. Their absolute disregard for immediate action is utterly reprehensible. People are being killed or injured because of their lack of or inability to address the situation. *js |
