Problems with 2005 Chevrolet Aveo ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Tacada recall i bought my car had 121000 miles all a sudden i have no right tail light no dash lights an no passengers front orange light ther is no power going to fuse box under hood i called the dealership they stated my vin had been fixed for that recal and it has not

Gm must not know this this has to do with the electrical wire harness inside of the engine block for the lights. for some reason the power is over writing the fuses and not blowing and causing small engine fires that could get out of control. i caught mine in enough time and put it out. a guy has to do with the right side and the left side in the fuse box being two separate entities of wires which is 7 + 7 equals 14 to control two different sizes. i was just wondering why and gm needs to know what's the sense of having a fuse box if the wires are going to override the fuse. and possibly catch fire or will catch fire it just a matter of an accident waiting to happen. i've been on youtube and found out this is a common thing to happen for chevy aveo will there be a 2004 through 2008. i'm letting you know about this concern because i do not want anybody to die from a car fire because gm.maybe not know about this that it's a big issue an accident waiting to happen. sincerely [xxx] if someone ...

Interior dash and console lights in-operative as well as the right tail light. jesus christ, after seeing all of the people complaining about this our beloved no good for nothing governmental agencies should make gm responsible for the cost of repair for this obvious manufacturers or engineering defect. or at least send out detailed instructions to the owners on how to fix this problem so they can take it to their mechanic of choice to get it fixed. the dealers obviously don't want to do anything about it. and they charge too much any how. sincerely, george s.

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 chevrolet aveo. while driving approximately 60 mph, the vehicle experienced a complete loss of power. the failure occurred without warning. the vehicle was towed to the contact's residence. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. the failure mileage was approximately 128,000.

When i went out to start the vehicle i had no dash board lights. every other light system worked but i could not see the speedometer or the tachometer. all the fuses were intact. i then bought new bulbs for the entire gage cluster and they still are not functioning. i have looked up this problem on multiple forums and this is a very common issue without a solution other than "rigging" this system! this is unacceptable practice to allow this to go on without some sort of recall or replacement part available!

My 05 aveo,is included in the gm recall#a140093/nhtsa recall#14v261(headlamp switch & drl). i have been experiencing issues with all of my external lights (my gauge cluster and shifter lights have been out). i was replacing every external bulb every few weeks to keep the lights on. that is not working. i am down to one headlight (driver side) working ' as far as running lights go. i have no taillights (brakelights work). i commute approx. 40miles each direction for work-all freeway. i made an appt w/chevy,took the day off work so the car could be there all day.as i arrived to my appt the service writer told me there is not a remedy from gm yet so i will need to cover the cost. eventually we went into the building to complete my write up, at that point i was told they were backed up on recalls so they may not get to my vehicle despite the appt. i reiterated the issue,he said okay,told me he would be in contact with me. at 3:30 he called,told me they hadn't had a chance to look at my vehicle but would get to it tomorrow. i took another day off work & ...

Tl*the contact owns a 2005 chevrolet aveo. the contact stated that the hazard lights, the tail lights, the marker lights and the instrument panel lights failed. the vehicle was serviced under nhtsa campaign number: 14v261000 (exterior lighting) however, the failures persisted. the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, who diagnosed that the s101 splice box burned out and needed to be replaced. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 80,000.

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. *tr

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 ...

In addition to the daytime headlights randomly shutting off, the clock in the center of the dashboard will disappear until i turn on the headlights then it reappears. ~ just before the vehicle stalls just after starting in the morning here in the fla. sun, all the gauges go up then back down. ~ this 2005 chevrolet aveo lt hatchback, is having more and more electrical problems but the dealer, rosner chevrolet, refuses to fix the problem without a charge, since the vehicle is not a fire hazard or on a recall list. ~ i feel as though gm and the dealer, are hiding serious electrical issues from the buyer either due the cost of repairing the problem or due to some of the manufacturing being done in south korea. or until people start dying from these problems. ( or until we start getting lawyers ). *tr

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. *tr

2005 chevrolet aveo. consumer writes in regards to hot ignition key issues. *smd the dealer informed the consumer, he would have to pay out of pocket, to correct the problem. *jb

1. multiple times, my driver side door lock has completely fallen into the door. i have probably had this issue "repaired" five to six times, by both the chevrolet dealer where i bought the car, as well as my own mechanic. 2. things that were wrong when we first brought the car to the dealer for repairs in early april 2014. this is the list we gave them, modified for space: *clock a couple years ago, the clock in my car stopped working. often, the clock would read 1:00 when i turned the car on, no matter what time it was. sometimes, it would randomly display another time. eventually, it just stopped turning on altogether. *cd player three times, the radio and/or cd player have turned on and off by themselves. this has not happened recently. the cd player sometimes works just fine. other times, it does not. when it does not work, it does one of two things. it will either spin and spin and spin and then spit the cd out, or, more often, it will read ?error 7.? i do not know ...
