2010 CHEVROLET AVEO. CONSUMER STATES PROBLEM WITH VEHICLE NOT HAVING POWER *TGW SEVERAL MONTHS AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED, THE CONSUMER BEGAN EXPERIENCING SITUATIONS WHERE THERE WAS ABSOLUTELY NO POWER. SHE WOULD BE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, HIGHWAY OR INTERSTATE AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE VEHICLE WOULD BEGIN TO SLOW DOWN, AND WHEN PRESSING THE ACCELERATOR, THERE WAS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. SHE WOULD PULL OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, TURN THE VEHICLE OFF AND BACK ON AND IT WOULD GO AGAIN. THE DEALER PERFORMED THE PO132 BULLETIN 100604012.

AT POINT OF COLLISION, NEITHER AIR BAGS DEPLOYED AND SEAT BELT DID NOT WORK EFFECTIVELY TO RESTRAIN MY ADOLESCENT SON. IF THE SEAT BELT HAD RESTRAINED HIM PROPERLY AND THE AIR BAG HAD INDEED DEPLOYED; HIS TEETH MARKS WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN EMBEDDED INTO THE DASH. I FIRMLY BELIEVE HE AND MYSELF WOULD NOT HAVE SUFFERED THE AMOUNT OF INJURIES IF THE MECHANISMS HAD WORKED PROPERLY. I HAD A HEAD INJURY AND WHIPLASH, ALSO. *JS
