Wiring problems of the 2005 Chevrolet Aveo

I have a 2005 chevy Aveo sedan that I drove approx. 5 miles and parked in my lot at approx. 11:30 am. When I returned at approx. 3:30 pm the inside of the vehicle had burned under the center of the dash and melted the dash,clock,radio,center console and wiring. In addition it burnt the carpet by the gas pedal,air vents were melted down into the dash,windows were all smoked and the inside has an odor of melted plastic. I feel that if the windows were not all rolled up the complete car would have burned. I feel this is at the fault of the drl module which there is a recall out for.

I was driving home from picking my kids up from school when my all my gauges stopped working. Then my brake lights and tail lights stopped working and then my car died while I was turning left across a two lane highway. My wife and 3 kids were nearly t boned by a semi. Two days prior I had to have the ignition replaced. I have seen hundreds of complaints about the same problem. I think gm should have a recall before somebody is killed over their faulty wiring.

Several customers have had this same problem with defective wiring inside of the fuse box in which the splice pack overheats and causes wires to melt. This causes the electrical systems to malfunction, brake lights to go out, turn signals to stop working, dash safety indicators to flicker on and off, the radio to stop working, and headlights to stop working. This is an ongoing problem that chevy does not want to address but it has caused a car to stall in the middle of the highway and affects safety of the vehicle passengers, the driver, and the passengers in other vehicles. I feel that the 2004-2008 chevy Aveo is a prime candidate for a recall because of safety issues.

Multiple problems, started with daytime lights going out, clock going out and coming on with correct time, dealer replaced clock and said daytime lights related and should be fixed, it was not. Next all the instrument panel lights went out, repaired by dealer again at my costs. Next the tail lights and brake lights went out. Each time it was the wiring in the fuse box under the hood. All repaired at my expense. The dealer acted like they had no idea of the multitude of electrical problems with the Aveo but I think they've known, just read some of the blogs-this is a very common problem. It's frightening to drive this car just waiting for a fire. From may 2013 to present I continue to have these problems. The daytime lights and now the clock again going out. The whole fuse box needs replaced as far as I'm concerned but the dealership keeps giving me the runaround--- no more chevys or gm for me.

The contact owns a 2005 Chevrolet Aveo. The contact stated that the headlight lights, the parking lights, and daytime lights failed to illuminate. The failure recurred several times. The vehicle was taken to the dealer. The technician diagnose that the main fuse box and wiring harness needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 75,000.

I have a 2005 Chevrolet Aveo that has given me numerous problems. A little over a year ago I noticed I could not shift my car out of park I have to use a screwdriver to shift my gear out of park. Soon after I noticed my brake lights stopped working. I brought a box of fuses but this only fixed the problem for less than a week. Every time I put a new fuse in the brake lights went back out in a day or two. One day while I was on the freeway my car just suddenly stopped without any warning. I took the car to the dealer it was still under the power train warranty. It was a electrical problem causing all of these problems and cost over $2,000 to fix. A year later the problems started again I can't move my gear without using a screw driver, my brake lights and headlights are out. If I slam the hood of my car one headlight will come on which shows that something is wrong with the wiring. The engine light and hold mode light flashes constantly. I feel this car is dangerous because there are no brake lights which can easily cause a accident. I was pulled over by the police because of no brake lights a $125 ticket. I am in a bind because I really need my car for work but I do not have $2,000 (no longer under warranty) to fix this car only to have the same problem happen again months from now. Also, I have noticed a strong gas smell from the car that has me concerned. I have read so many internet post from other people complaining about the same problems. This car seriously need to be recalled because it is endangering people lives.

Consumer letter concerning engine service light illuminated. The engine light illuminated due to a fuel gauge error the first time. When the engine light illuminated again, the dealer explained that the wiring harness needed to be relocated and not repaired.
