general problems of the 2005 Chevrolet Aveo

Nothing happened, but I saw that the Chevrolet Aveo's status was deemed, "recall incomplete," and I wanted to know what I should do with the car; if there are any repairs that need to be done or if repairs cannot be done. I don't have any photos because I don't understand in depth why this vehicle was recalled, but I wanted to know if this is very concerning or not.

Was driving on I-94 from milwaukee to chicago, once in kenosha area the car choked, heard a big noise and died completely would not turn on again. Pushed it to the shoulder and called 911. The dot towed the car to safety and then it was brought to the shop. The mechanic described the problem as the idler pulley and the timing belt are broken down and this cause the valves and piston to be completely damaged. The car was always maintained according to gm recommendation, timing belt performed by hall Chevrolet dealer at 67000 and oil change was regularly done at 3000miles. Also the car has a complete 92000 miles review with heiser Chevrolet back in March with all the maintenance recommended by gm (transmission, coolant, belts, hoses. . . Etc). The car is still in great shape. The timing belt and the idler part must be defective.

While I am driving I often smell burning plastic I could not tell where it was coming from. I called gm and the representative told me that it was coming from my dash behind my steering wheel. I also have noticed that after I have driven anywhere my key, after I have taken it out of the ignition, is really hot. The longer I drive the hotter my key becomes. When I called gm about this problem the representative told me that she can not tell my why my key got hot. When I asked her about the recall on my car that I had seen on the news she told me that it is not an official recall and she can not do anything about it. They also informed me that I can take it into a dealership to get it looked at but it would have to be out of pocket. I have talked to gm multiple times and they have told me only that the recall would be VIN specific, I don't understand how it is VIN specific if I am telling them that my car is not right. I really would just like my car looked at for the parts that are supposed to be recalled before something bad happens to me or my passengers. I also believe that since this is a known issue I should not have to take it to a dealership to get looked at and pay hundreds of dollars out of my pocket.

We were driving home from austin going 65 mph on highway 290 when the car just shuts down. Car had over 1/2 tank of gas, no lights came on, just seemed like the car turned off while it was going. Almost got into a car accident trying to pull over ( not to mention my husband was driving, im 6 months pregnant, and we had our 4 year old daughter in the backseat) , checked the car out, and nothing was wrong. Had to wait 3 hours before anyone could tow us home to houston. Been working on the car all day today, nothing is found wrong with it. Everything works, just doesn't want to turn on?!.
