I have an unheated garage that was re-roofed (2 layers now) 11 years
ago and the corners of every shingle are curling already. What could
be causing this?

Normal wear, but a bit earlier than usual. What kind of climate?

I live in Vermont. I've thought of adding gable vents to slow the
aging, but that would cost me $200 and no assurance that it would
help. I wonder if cheap shingles were used?

I'm in the same area as you. Extremes in weather from winter to summer.
I have 3 layers on my house and it still looks good after 10 years.
Except I remember the roofers cut out/cut off the part of the old shingles
that weren't nailed down. They added vents to the soffits and a few more
vents higher up on the roof.
