NHTSA Complaint #10140685 — 2005 CHEVROLET CLASSIC

I PURCHASED MY 2005 CHEVROLET MALIBU CLASSIC IN FEBRUARY OF 2005. SO FAR MY CAR HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP 5 TIMES. THE FIRST TIME WAS TO FIX A PROBLEM WITH THE COMPUTER SYSTEM. AFTER DRIVING LONG DISTANCES AND TURNING ON THE AIR CONDITIONER THE CAR WOULD COMPLETELY TURN ITSELF OFF. THIS HAPPENED TWICE, IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC. NEXT, AN 02 SENSOR HAD TO BE REPLACED AFTER THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT KEPT COMING OFF AN ON. THE LAST 3 TIMES I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR TO TWO DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS TO SEE IF I CAN GET MY CURRENT PROBLEM RESOLVED. WHEN I AM DRIVING, THERE IS A LOUD METAL BANGING SOUND COMING FROM BOTH THE RIGHT AND LEFT FRONT WHEEL AREAS OF THE CAR (SUSPENSION NOISE). EACH TIME THE CAR HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP, THEY HAVE REPLACED A PART. SO FAR I HAVE HAD STRUT CUSHIONS/SPRING SEATS REPLACED. TOMORROW WILL BE MY 4TH TIME TAKING MY CAR TO THE SHOP FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. WHEN DRIVING THE CAR AT TIMES YOU FEEL VERY LITTLE CONTROL OVER THE STEERING, IT SEEMS LIKE THE FRONT TIRES AREN'T CONTROLLING/DIRECTING THE REST OF THE CAR. *NM
