CD PLAYER GETS TOO HOT. IT HAS MELTED A CD. I RUN IT FOR 15 MINUTES AND YOU CAN'T EVEN TOUCH THE FACE OF IT OR THE CD ITSELF. I'VE CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAY ITS NORMAL. I BELIEVE THAT WITH THE CLOCK, THE CD PLAYER, AND THE IGNITION (& KEY) GETTING PRETTY HOT THAT IT'S AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM. *NM

WHILE DRIVING ON I-94 MADE A SUDDEN DECREASE IN SPEED FROM 70 MPH TO 60 MPH AND CAR SWERVED OUT OF CONTROL, AND THE ONLY THING SAVING ME FROM FLIPPING THE CAR WAS AFTER MARKET RIMS AND TIRES. THUMP SOUND, SOUNDED LIKE A FLAT TIRE, CHECKED ALL THE TIRES AND THEY WERE FINE. CHECKED UNDER THE HOOD, ENGINE WAS TITLED TO DRIVER'S SIDE, AFTER INSPECTION ON SIDE OF EXPRESSWAY FOUND OUT THAT THE HALF SHAFT WAS COMPLETELY DESTROYED AS WELL AS TRANSMISSION MOUNT BOLTS. THERE IS NO REASON FOR THESE BOLTS TO FAIL IF THE CAR IS DRIVEN RESPECTIVELY. *AK

MY CHEVROLET AVEO PULLS TO THE RIGHT, UPON ACCELERATION AND DRIVING AT A CONSTANT SPEED. I MADE THE DEALERSHIP AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AND THEY SAID THAT IT NEEDED AN ALIGNMENT. THEY GAVE IT AN ALIGNMENT AND IT HELPED FOR A FEW WEEKS. THEN THE VEHICLE STARTING PULLING TO THE RIGHT AGAIN. I TOOK IT FOR A SECOND OPINION AND THEY SAID THE VEHICLE HAS TORQUE STEERING AND WITH THE WAY IT IS BUILT IT WILL DRIVE LIKE THIS. SUGGESTED WELDING WEIGHTS ON LEFT SIDE OF ENGINE TO MAKE IT HEAVIER ON THE LEFT SIDE, ALSO SUGGESTED A WIDER TIRE, BUT THEY WOULD N…

MY VEHICLE WILL BE DRIVING FINE AND I WILL ATTEMPT TO MAKE A LEFT OR RIGHT TURN AND INTERMITTENTLY THE STEERING WHEEL WILL LOCK UP, ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE DASH BOARD WILL COME ON AND THE CAR WILL STOP! THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME 4 TIMES IN 2 WKS AND DEALER CAN NOT "DUPLICATE MY CONCERN" I AM STILL EXPERIENCING THIS PROBLEM. THE VEHICLE HAS 600 MILES ON IT, I DRIVE 15 MILES A DAY TO AND FROM WORK, NO HIGHWAY. DEALER CAN NOT FIND THE PROBLEM AND I AM FORCED TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE. IT IS A BIG SAFETY CONCERN BECAUSE THE CAR COMES TO A STOP WHEN EVER IT…
