general problems of the 2005 Chevrolet Aveo

For the last two years at random times when I start my car, the brakes will not work. They can not even be pressed down. Whenever this happens, a corresponding weird revving that causes the car to lunge forward in such a way that it doesn't usually also happens. I parallel park on a street daily, and one morning when this happened ended up hitting the car in front of me. Usually the problem stops happening after driving for about 1/2 a mile, but it is pretty scary trying to drive without brakes to get to that 1/2 mile mark. Especially since whenever the brakes won't work the car also seems to accelerate on its own. I have tried to get this fixed multiple times but it always stops happening by the time I get to the mechanic and I've left my car overnight at a mechanic twice and they haven't been able to recreate the issue. I can't part with my car for an entire week so that this problem can be diagnosed.

2005 Chevrolet Aveo rear brakes 70,000 miles shoe came unglued cauisng 87 yearold man to go in ditch deep snow at 15 below zero.

: the contact stated while the brake pedal was depressed, the vehicle shook. The dealership replaced the rear drums three times, resurfaced the rear drums, and replaced the brake system. These efforts have not corrected the shaking problem. Updated 05/16/2006.

Car type: Chevrolet Aveo 2005 model: LS sedan with 14" wheels since I purchased this car it has exhibited vibration in the front end and steering wheel while driving (above 50 mph) as well as vibration while braking. Car was taken into chevy to be repaired. Car still vibrates. Upon further research I discovered that many others have this exact problem. Chevy has been unable to fix this problem. Significant vibration while driving and braking (especially) is a safety hazard. Since chevy is either unwilling or unable to fix this serious problem I'm hoping the NHTSA will investigate this problem.
