I have a question about my 2007 Aveo LS. When I bought it the brakes squeeked (I bought it used). They will squeek every time I push the brakes in slightly. They don't really squeek when I push the brakes in hard. Nonetheless, it is annoying when my brakes squeek all the time! I took it to the dealership where I bought it (2X). Both times they told me that the brakes were like brand new and that they wouldn't change them. They told me brakes on Aveos are metallic and not ceramic because they're made to be affordable and that all metalic brakes will squeek like that. He said that everyone has that problem, but the brakes are fine. Is this true? I would NEVER purchase a new car with squeeky brakes. I don't think anyone would.
My 04 has the same problem, the window regulator is messed up, the driver front window on mine leans forward a little. when your not driving (actually in motion) roll your window down 2 to 3 inches, grab the top of the window at the back and try to pull it toward the front of the car. if it moves forward, the regulator is messed up. i have tinted windows, when mine is howling, I can look at the top back corner of the window and see the edge of the tint which should be hidden by the rubber window moulding. As for the brakes, the techs at the dealership can take care of that, it just sounds like they dont want to. I have had my 04 aveo for almost 3 years, I have never had any noise at all from the brakes. i had 108,000 miles when I bought it, at 110,000 miles just for my own sake, I did a front brake job utilizing the oem pads from chevy, at 140,000 miles no squeaking or grinding and I still have 80% pad left
