Failure Date: 07/01/2014

2006 chevy Aveo I got my daughter this car it seemed to be great when we first got Aveo last year we had to replace the brake switch. There wiring issues air bag lights on and clock comes on and off this year odometer mileage is fading and headlights on no light for mileage. Low fuel and low water does not come on and on the 7/1 and two times on 7/4 her speedometer is not reading right it read 15 miles off from what the car is going faster. The three times getting pulled over and she said the gauge been acting weird then goes back to normal the one cop said I know thats why I dont have one of these cars and still gave her a ticket. So now the car sits until the recall but the best thing ( not ) I have two Aveos my husbands that sit and we get to share between the three of us is my van thats a Dodge. I cant believe wiring heating up by the day time module that will catch fire and it taking this long safety and chevy has nothing on there site for the recall wow.

3 Air Bag On-off Switch problem of the 2006 Chevrolet Aveo

Failure Date: 06/05/2010

I have a 2006 chevy Aveo and the airbag warning light has been on even after replacing the sensor. . . They say it is a common problem but I believe that when an airbag could deploy at any minute or not deploy at all then there is a problem with that. . . All they say is that after they replace the switch that it will be fine. . . Well everytime they do that then a week later the sensor goes bad again my car has been in the shot 3 times for just this one problem and I know others with the same car as mine that are having the same problems as me. . .
