Your 2004 Aveo Chevy stopped running no indication of problems what can it be?

These cars had a problem with the teeth on the original timing belt coming off and the belt not breaking. if this has happened most likely you have bent valves too. These are a interference engine which means if they slip on the timing the valves hit the pistons. Chevrolet should have recalled these cars and put a better timing belt in them. Instead they did a goodwill service where they paid for a new timing belt if the owner paid to install it.

If everything was fine before the new belt was fitted then the most obvious answer is that the timing belt has been fitted incorrectly and the timing is wrong.
