Try to check the refrigerant pressure of your AC system. Because aveo compressor design no cut off. Except wiring problem, lack of refrigerant and driving habit. Some latest car the comp. Will cut off when a sudden acceleration. Try it when you do a sudden press the accelator pedal the compressor will disengage.

If the compressor seized or broke inside and system was not flushed prior to installing new compressor it's very possible more stuff from old compressor made it'way to new one causing the same problem
