“My ca r has excessive tire ware have 147000 miles purchased with 42000 I am on 6th set of tires have used three brands. Some tires as little as 15000 miles have had it checked for alignment which was at specs. This problem has resulted in sudden loss of air pressure with near collision. This to me is a huge safety problem and needs GM to back up this problem and make corrections.”

“Sometimes when it is windy,or when a semi comes from opposite direction, the car will sort of jerk & get a loud squealing noise. Have told the dealer where we got the car twice now & they said it is just a noise from the aerodynamics . I have asked another person if they had this with their AVEO & they said no. This has happened a lot for the last several months. There were times in both 2007 & 2008.”
