They didn't interview me, but it bombs in my satisfaction survey too. After a couple of months of trying to get the dealer to look at it (had a slight stumble at 60mph, felt like a misfire to me) it finally blew up tonight. Started bucking and jerking and the check engine light started flashing. At that point I was only a couple of miles from the dealer so I finished the drive there. I'll bet they could smell the rotten eggs coming while I was still half a mile away. They said to drive it home and bring it back in the morning. I did not think it would make it, but I did get home. We'll see if it gets in in the morning, under its own power.
These are the kind of problems my wife and I expect from our other car (98 nissan, 180k miles). Not from a 4 year old car with only 68k miles on it.
The problems you are experiencing are not entirely with the car as much as they are with the incompetence and/or attitude of the dealership. I can't say my Aveo is bad; but I can certainly say that there are Chevy dealerships that are rotten. My local dealership is incompetent and also tries to avoid doing warranty work. I have to drive 20 miles further to go to another dealership that is competent.
