these things are junk..my job has several different types of cars and have an 08 and 10 aveo..they are absolute garbage...nothing but problems..electronic throttle and throttle body problems in both..plus they hesitate and get alot slower as the mileage accumulates..1 problem after the next..dangerous hesitation at times making left turns ect..constant check engine lights over and over...buy an import or buy a better used car..imao
The Aveo is just a cheap car that will get you from A to B in reasonable comfort, price, and performance. It's GM's way of cutting corners to make bigger profits that cost them future customers. Using a plastic thermostat housing, a bargain basement timing belt, plastic timing pulleys, and cheap, shoddy wiring really took a toll on the Aveo's reputation. If GM just raised the base price by $1,500 and invested that money in each Aveo, it would have taken out any subcompact in America.
The passenger airbag sensors go out, the thermostat plastic housing falls apart, the key will stick in the ignition. I had the car a month and found out that the car had the wrong alternator in it. The car has Daewoo parts. GMAC admits to the problems but will not put out a recall. Before buying or if you are having problems, please check a site that I found. It may help. AllAuto.com
I have an 04 Aveo, and its absolutely amazing...just remember, all cars have their own problems...My personal experience with the aveo is great! I would definately recommend it to any buyer!! =D
This is the worst mistake of my Life buyin Aveo..This car just sucks...I would personally advise people not to buy this car...It makes so much noise and is very light ..Dont ever buy a new Aveo with that money u can go for a nice used strong car..PLZ take it seriously
lol one of this cars tryed to out run me win i tryed passin one on a country road.... was funny to think this bitch even tryed,,,,thing prob dont weigh anything maybe thats why they floored it... sad they lost to a 4500 pound truck
i dont believe your comment. Reality is diferent than test one friend crashed in his aveo agains a Very large truck (18 wheels) and this crash send car to Ford little truck in oposite direction safety in the car avoid any injured to him and his song, this car is very good
That's because he was doing 5 mph. Man I was choosing a car to buy for almost half an year and I ended up with Citroen C4 which I bought few days ago. Citroen C4 has massive reinforcers but when I was looking into Aveo, I founded almost nothing. Why do you thing these crash tests are made?
Yeah no shit its ment for people who just want something to get around dumbass. You prolly just a fucking hater who can't even get a license. Enjoy taking the bus, Retard.
I got my 2007 Aveo at the beginning of 2008 with low mileage. it is at 34,000 now and is doing great. I am averaging 37mph on the road. I would make one suggestion though. If you are in a cold climate the car is light on ice and it is advisable to put a big bag of salt or sand in the trunk to give you some weight. The car handles very well in snow.
Do you hear yourself? You spew out swears, and say I have no facts in my comebacks, when all you do is swear, and you just say that American cars are crappy. You can't give me a fact? The Yaris DOES NOT have ABS; that's a concrete fact. I'm making perfect sense, there is nothing grammatically incorrect about that statement, however there is when you say, "The cloud over fucking dumb ass head bitch!" That makes no sense. See how hippocritical that is? Do I have to speak to you like a 3 year old?
If you think those crappy Yaris's or Fits are good, enjoy those pathetic POS. I know that the Aveo is a perfectly competent car, and only an ignorant retard would close themselves off to only Japanese cars. A smart person would look at all different cars, and wouldn't choose a car because they're led to believe everything that company makes is gold, because that's not how it works.
If Ameican cars suck, then why doesn't the Yaris have ABS? ABS is not something that a good driver doesn't need, it is a feature that helps all drivers, even pros. That just proves that you don't know shit about cars.
And what cloud are you talking about? That's the only Daewoo that's been imported by GM, and they don't have any plans to import any more. All the other imports are Holdens and Opels.
Most people on YouTube are 10-12 years olds who only know what they hear from their parents. They can't even drive the cars, so their knowledge is shallow. They just think that American cars suck because that's the idea that they get from Consumer Reports and the public in general. They are too ignorant to accept the idea that a company can change itself.
My best advice is to drive it and form your own opinion, and try not to be like them. If you don't like the Aveo, don't think all GMs suck.
well geez... nothing but bad things to say about this car it seems.
I just got a Chevy Aveo Hatchback 2006 and i love it... great gas mileage, average pickup, nice brakes and fine steering. It may not be a corvette but it's a nice car for the price.
lying gas mileage? i dont think so...but yes the aveo, pontiac wave and suzuki swift are all of Daewoo origin which has been sold in asia and other parts of the world for quite some time...if u want an efficient small car, i'd check out the honda fit
wish i never got this piece of junk. its a manual and i cant stand it..i got chevy cars before and they ran great intill this piece of junk came out. my dad bought it for me and we both cant stand it
I have one of these. It was the very cheapest car we could buy. Before we had this, we had a mini cooper s. Maybe we are spoiled, but what a piece of crap.
I have one . What a peice of vrap. They should all be sent back to Korea and scrapped. Don't buy one of these. I tried trading it in and was offered almost nothing. I'll never buy another. I advise you not to either. Several visits for the same warranty issue before they finally figured it out. I almost invoked the Lemon Law.PIECE OF CRAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Better to buy a used Malibu than a new Aveo.!!!!!!!!!

Actually, it gets 5 star front crash test rating. It has standard side airbags, too. I would like to have a stiffer suspension to stop some of the body roll in my hatchback, but otherwise, wonderful car.
Gas mileage, check. Price, check. Safety, check. I think the hatchback looks better though ;)
This car is a deathtrap in crosswinds. Too tall. Too narrow. The wheels on this thing are like 14" and overall look is crap. The hatch might offer something different.
Both the Yaris and Fit are wider than this crap and delivers better gas mileage, interior design, and comfort.
This thing is worse than the Cobalt which was terrible in my opinion. Drive them all and see the difference. The best thing about the Aveo is it's price tag. Hope you're happy.
Why do you beieve everything the magazines feed you? The Yaris doesn't even have ABS, and they're both Japanese POS. The Aveo has a nice interior, too.
For such a small car, the fuel economy sucks. I have a Metro that will own this thing on Fuel Economy... Hell, it owns Toyota Prius cars that like to speed on the highway.
The advertised MPG is far from reality. This Aveo should be better, but it has a thirsty 1.6L. Too bad the Cooper Mini 9K more than this car.

4. GM is losing money because it costs them $5,000 more than Toyota to make each car, b/c Toyota's workers aren't unionized, and GM's are.
