2009 Chevrolet Aveo consumer reviews

I bought a 2009 model in 2021, with 150k on the clock. Soon after, I had to replace the throttle body, the thermostat, the water pump, the brakes, and tires ( duh ) and the battery, and the front catalytic converter and the oil cooler, all fluids, bled the brakes, etc... ...I paid 3500.00 for it, and put a few thousand in it....BUT, it went 150k without any maintenance apparently...I took a chance and didn't replace the timing belt...so far so good, no carfax records...it runs and drives well, and it has been a great commuter for my wife, and I can say that it has more than paid for itself many times...way cheaper than a new car, but I am a pretty good mechanic so, ...don't be afraid of this little car...easy to work on...straight forward...transmission is great.

This car made me realize I'm never buying another Chevrolet again the overall craftsmanship is awful!!! As soon as it hit 80,000 miles I'm constantly working on it. This car is absolutely garbage next vehicle I'm buying is absolutely going to be a Honda or Toyota never again another Chevrolet.

Hate that I purchased it. It’s broke more than working. I’ve spent more money on this car for electrical , heating sway bar link, thermostat,mass air flow sensor, control arms and so on and on

This gm car is a piece of crap the interior falls apart and the trans blew dont buy A CHEVY EVER CANT GO OVER 100k Honda fit or Yaris is the way to go

This is a very economic car. Very very reliable. I drove it from Pennsylvania and just got back from New Mexico and drove very well. I highly recommend this car. Just some cosmetic issues.

This car was my grandmas and I’m looking to sale it the car is beautiful with minor problems as in the car needs new brake pads but after all a perfect condition car

Honestly worst purchasing decision I have ever made. I bought I used. Car fax all looked amazing. Every two months it was in the shop. Constantly repairing something just for it to keep breaking down. Save yourself the time and money, DO NOT GET

In 1979, I bought a Honda Civic for $4400. FWD 2 door hatchback with MacPherson struts with a 1200cc engine. 30 years later, I got the Aveo5 and the difference was 4 doors, a few more cc's and almost 4X the price. Still that was considered cheap. All that aside, the Aveo was roomy, economical and fun to drive. With the rear seats down, it handled some good loads. Did well in the snow and never seemed to struggle. I chose it because I'd seen some small businesses use the Aveo as their courrier cars. Had mine for 6 years and loved it every day.

I've got this car for about 7 month and I have gotten so many frustrating times with it, problems with ignition coil, the car doesn't have chassis, so it's fragile... Now I have this engine light on, idk why, but acceleration is loosed... Horrible car

Lemon! Not good, not fixable and not safe! Worst vehicle by far! Buy new or car fax checked and mechanic inspection before any money down.
