WHEN I START MY CAR MY POWER STEERING LIGHT COME ON AND I CAN'T TURN MY STEERING WHEEL, I CAN TURN MY CAR OFF AND RESTART AND IT WORKS,IT HAPPENED ONCE WHILE I WAS BACKING MY CAR UP AND I COULD NOT TURN MY WHEELS, IM SCARED TO DRIVE MY CAR

I ALREADY KNOW ABOUT THE AIRBAG AND IGNITION RECALLS BUT, NOW, I HAVE A FUEL LEAK WITH FUEL DRIPPING DOWN THE LINES FROM THE TANK ON TO THE GROUND AT A POSITION ON THE DRIVERS SIDE UNDER THE REAR PASSENGER DOOR AND SEAT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET COBALT. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE INSTRUMENT PANEL WARNING INDICATORS FLASHED AND THE POWER STEERING FAILED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER. THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 126,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET COBALT. WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, THE ODOR OF FUEL WAS PRESENT INSIDE THE CABIN OF THE VEHICLE. UPON INSPECTION, IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT FUEL WAS LEAKING FROM UNDER THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR AREA. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO ALAMO CITY CHEVROLET IN SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE FUEL TANK, FUEL PUMP, AND FUEL HOSES WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE, BUT NO ASSISTANCE WAS OFFERED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 99,000.

THERE IS A HAZARDOUS GAS LEAK COMING FROM MYFUEL PUMP SYSTEM, YET I HAVE NEVER RAN OVER ANYTHING THAT COULD CAUSE THIS. I HAVE SMELLED GAS EVERY DAY IN THE CAR SINCE I PURCHASED IT. I KNOW THAT MY VIN NUMBER IS ONLY A FEW PAGES OFF OF THE FUEL PUMP RECALL FOR 2007 CHEVY COBALT. I KNOW THAT MY VIN NUMBER IS ONLY A FEW DIGITS OFF OF THE FUEL PUMP RECALL FOR 2007 CHEVY COBALT. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND FAULTY.

In mid 2017 I went for a drive in my 2007 Chevy Cobalt. (just over 100,000 miles). When I was approximately 4 blocks from my home the engine began sputtering and died. I was able to pull in a parking lot, put it in park and jumped out of my car. An overwhelming smell of gas was immediately noticed, as well as a huge puddle of fuel on the ground. I began to walk the 4 blocks home and saw a huge continuous trail of gasoline upon the road leading from my car ALL the way to my home! In this 4 block distance my Cobalt leaked out over 3/8ths of a tank of fuel- nearly 5-6 gallons. The fuel vapor in the air was most assuredly at a very dangerous explosive level this entire distance home. I am a self taught mechanic with many engine re-builds and repairs under my belt. Upon inspection I found that the steel fuel line had a major rupture above the driver rear wheel within the foil wrapped "joke" of a heat shield- (just above the exhaust pipe). Upon further inspection this steel fuel line was badly rusted & corroded all the way to under the driver seat. Overall the Cobalt fuel line system is a very poor design, poor quality materials, with bad design & placement. I ordered a complete new fuel & return line set and replaced all the rusty junk fuel lines. My experience with the instantaneous fuel line failure could have had a very bad ending. No warning lights or previous leaks were detected. Then there is the front suspension and front wheel bearing issues. I have installed 2 complete front suspension kits, ball joints, struts, as well as 2 wheel bearing failures- all these replaced with less than 80,000 miles on the odometer. Then there is the bad window switches, bad moon roof seal, bad wiper arm assemblies, front stereo speaker failure at 39,000 miles, on & on. A very poor quality vehicle After purchasing this Cobalt I would be very hesitant to purchase another GM product.

I NOTICED A STRONG ODOR OF EXHAUST INSIDE AND OUTSIDE MY CAR WHEN CITY AND HIGHWAY DRIVING AS WELL AS AFTER TURNING CAR OFF AND PARKING. I ALSO EXPERIENCED SLUGGISH STARTS. UPON TAKING MY CAR IN FOR REPAIR IT WAS FOUND TO BE LEAKING FUEL AND THE FUEL LINE WAS REPLACED.. ..UPDATED 05/23/17 *BF UPDATED 09/15/2017 *JS

IM DRIVING AND ALL THE GAUGES GO WACKO SWINGING BACK AND FORTH, ANTI THEFT LIGHT COMES ON CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ABS LIGHT LOW FUEL LIGHT TRACTION LIGHT. IT READS SERVICE TRACTION POWER STEERING LOW FUEL EVERY LIGHT YOU CAN THINK OF COMES ON AND THE CAR EVEN JERKS WHEN CHANGING INTO GEAR. AT TIMES THE STEERING EVEN HAS LOCKED UP ON ME, THANK GOD AT THOSE TIMES I WAS ON A RESIDENTIAL STREET AND NOT FREEWAY. AT TIMES IT WONT EVEN START ALL THE LIGHTS ARE JUST GOING BASURK. THEN THERES DAYS WHERE ITS NORMAL LIKE IT NEVER EVEN HAPPENED. IM AFRAID ITS GOING TO LOCK UP ON ME ON THE FREEWAY AND IM GOING TO HAVE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT!! THE 2 RECALLS THAT MY VECHICLE HAD HAVE ALREADY BEEN REPLACED BUT THERE IS STILL ISSUES!! THIS CAR NEEDS TO BE COMPLETELY RECALLED, I RESEARCHED THE ISSUE IM HAVING AND FOUND OUT MANY MANY OTHER PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. SOME PEOPLE HAVE EVEN DIED!!! OTHERS MAJOR ACCIDENTS, WHAT MORE HAS TO HAPPEN FOR THIS VEHICLE TO BE RECALLED? HOW MANY MORE PEOPLE HAVE TO LOOSE THEIR LIVES?? THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE TAKEN CARE OF ASAP!!! AND WHEN THIS ISSUE OCCURS WITH THE LIGHTS AND GAUGES GOING CRAZY IT HAPPENS AS IM DRIVING. I PRAY NOTHING HAPPENS TO MY 3 YR OLD DAUGHTER AND I. THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR ABOUT AN YEAR NOW OFF AND ON.

ELECTRIC POWER STEERING MY VEHICLE WAS FIRST AFFECTED BY LOSS OF POWER STEERING WHEN I WAS ATTEMPTING TO MAKE A LEFT TURN FROM MY DRIVEWAY. I WASN'T EXPECTING I WOULD HAVE A HARD TIME AND TAKE TOO LONG TO TURN THE WHEEL AND I ALMOST GOT HIT BY ONCOMING TRAFFIC. IT WAS LIKE THAT FOR AWHILE AND THEN MY STEERING WENT BACK TO NORMAL. I TOOK MY CAR TO MY MECHANIC AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE POWER STEERING MODULE AND MOTOR WILL NEED REPLACED. THEY TOLD ME TO GO TO A CHEVROLET DEALER TO GET A POWER STEERING RECALL REPLACEMENT DONE. THE CHEVROLET DEALER INFORMED ME THAT THE RECALL REPLACEMENT HAD ALREADY BEEN DONE IN 2010. MY MECHANIC AND MY OWN RESEARCH HAS LED ME TO BELIEVE THAT THESE PARTS SHOULD BE GOOD FOR THE LIFE OF THE CAR OR AT LEAST NOT BE NEEDING REPLACED AGAIN SO SOON. THERE HAVE BEEN APPROXIMATELY 46,000 MILES PUT ON THIS CAR SINCE THE RECALL WAS DONE AND THIS JUST SEEMS RIDICULOUS TO ME THAT IT WOULD NEED REPLACED AGAIN. AND I HAVE HEARD FROM OTHER COBALT OWNERS THAT THEY HAVE HAD THIS SAME PROBLEM. THIS IS AN EXPENSIVE REPAIR AND POSES A RISK OF INJURY IF IT IS NOT FIXED. IF OTHER PEOPLE ARE HAVING THIS PROBLEM I THINK IT NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED.

MY SON BOUGHT A USED 2007 CHEVY COLBALT AND THE POWER STEERING GOES OUT SOME TIME WHILE HE IS DRIVING, MOSTLY IN REVERSE FOR EXAMPLE: REVERSING OUT OF THAT PARKING SPACE OR DRIVEWAY. THE WHEEL CAN BE VERY HARD TO TURN. I SAW THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON IT MAYBE TWO YEARS AGO, BUT I DON'T SEE A CURRENT RECALL FOR THE STEERING. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING EVERY NOW AND THEN SINCE WE BOUGHT THE CAR TWO MONTHS AGO. IT JUST HAPPENED AGAIN 3-19-17. THIS CAR IS NOT DRIVEN OFTEN RIGHT NOW UNTIL HE GETS HIS PERMANENT LICENSE.

THE POWER STEERING LIGHT CAME ON WHEN I WAS DRIVING MY VEHICLE ON THE HIGHWAY. THE SPEEDOMETER STOPED WORKING, MY CAR WOULDN'T SHIFT PAST FIRST GEAR. MY DOOR LOCKS STARTED LOCKING AND UNLOCKING UNCONTROLLABLY BY THEMSELVES. MY STEERING WHEEL WAS HARDER TO TURN. I IMMEDIATELY GOT OFF THE HIGHWAY AND CHOSE A SAFER ROUTE TO RETURN HOME. I HAVE A 1 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER WHO IS ALWAYS WITH MY WHEREVER I GO. I'VE RESEARCHED AND FOUND THE SAME ISSUES WITH THE SAME MAKE YEAR AND MODEL CAR.

TAKATA RECALL: MY AIR BAG SIGN PROBABLY IN THE BEGINNING OF JANUARY HAD APPEARED, AND OBVIOUSLY THEY HAVE NOT BEEN WORKING. I HAD GOTTEN INTO AN ACCIDENT ON JANUARY 31ST AND THEY DID NOT DEPLOY. I AM NOT POSITIVE IF THIS IS A PART OF THE RECALL SITUATION, BUT IT HAPPENED OUT OF NO WHERE, I JUST TURNED MY CAR ON ONE DAY AND IT STOPPED WORKING. ALSO IN THE ACCIDENT MY CAR WAS SITTING AT A RED LIGHT AND HIT BETWEEN THE RANGE OF 35-40 MPH

WHILE DRIVING, MANY TIMES THE STEERING WHEEL OF THE CAR BECOMES STIFF AND HARD TO TURN. TO BRING THE STEERING WHEEL BACK TO ITS FREE-RANGE MOTION, THE IGNITION HAD TO BE SHUT OFF AND TURNED BACK ON THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. WHEN IT BECOMES STIFF, THERE IS A SHORT BELL AND THE LIGHT NEXT TO THE SPEEDOMETER READS "POWER STEERING". THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN OCCURRING ON AND OFF. THIS FIRST HAPPENED 1/15/17 AND IS STILL AFFECTING THE VEHICLE. DRIVING BECOMES VERY DANGEROUS IN SITUATIONS SUCH AS HIGHWAYS AND HEAVY- TRAFFIC AREAS. THIS PROBLEM OCCURS WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AND WHILE TURNING IN BOTH CITY STREETS AND HIGHWAYS.

WHEN THE 2007 CHEVROLET COBALT IS BEING DRIVEN OR SITTING STILL, THERE IS A STRONG ODOR OF GASOLINE INSIDE AND OUTSIDE OF THE CAR. WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID IT IS A LEAK IN THE FUEL SYSTEM.

I CONTACTED GM CUSTOMER SERVICE TO FIND OUT IF I SHOULD HAVE RECEIVED A LETTER AND THEY SAID I WOULD NOT NEED A LETTER. THEY CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP AND WERE TOLD ABOUT THE TITLE. AFTER THAT, THEY STATED THEY WOULD NOT COVER THE REPAIRS. IF THIS IS A KNOW SAFETY ISSUE (NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 12V459000 & NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 09V419000 ), WHAT DOES THE TITLE HAVE TO DO WITH NEEDING TO REPAIR A KNOWN PROBLEM. WE HAVE RECEIVED OTHER SAFETY RECALLS (NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14E021000, NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V171000, NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V047000 & NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 10V07300) AND THEY HAVE MADE THESE REPAIRS.
