UPDATED..Is this covered under warranty (vehicle)/anybody else have an aveo or know somebody that does?


Recommended Posts

When I worked at a Chevy dealership, we had a couple on the lot like that. It is a pretty widespread problem. Just go to the service drive and tell them you want this fixed because it is no fault of your own. If they try and give you the run around, go to his boss, and then his boss. I can guarantee they will fix it if you bitch enough.

IF they will fix it.. will it happen again? :(

I never got a straight answer as to why it happened in the first place. So that I cant tell you. Kind of looks like the paint in that area was to thin and that combined with debris and car washes, slowly chipped it all away. But hey, its worth a shot. Most work from a dealership body shop is covered for life. So they should keep fixing it if the problem keeps coming back.

On some of the Trailblazer fixes there was a clear film they applied to the rockers and in front of the rear wheels to prevent the chips. You may want to ask about that if they fix it.

And his car should have a 36 month 36000 mile bumper to bumper warranty.

I can't seem to find any chevy aveo forums..

Here's the Aveo part of the Chevy forum. My dad owns an '05 Aveo, but I haven't personally noticed the chipping on his?

It needs an oil change in about 200 miles, my mom (owner) is going to have a guy friend take it (to the dealer..) and have him talk to them.

Your really complaining about rock chips? Trailblazers/Envoys got it worse. I've seen this on many trucks too without mud flaps. So maybe get it fixed and get some mud flaps installed and your problem should go away. Or stick little plastic/vinyl bullshit that'll peel off in a couple years with chips all around it except where the vinyl was.

Alll that work and bitching for an Aveo.... :)

Derp.
