NHTSA Complaint #10182896 — 2007 CHEVROLET COBALT

PURCHASED NEW COBALT 2007 IN AUGUST OF 2006. BEGAN NOTICING HYDROPLANING AND CONTROL PROBLEMS. NOW THAT IT IS WINTER, THE CAR WILL NOT STEER, IT PULLS AND THE TRACTION IS TERRIBLE. I HAVE BEEN STUCK SEVERAL TIMES. I NO LONGER PERMIT MY WIFE TO DRIVE ON THE INTERSTATE FOR FEAR OF A COLLISION OR WORSE. WE HAVE PARKED THE VEHICLE AND CONTACTED OUR DEALER WITH SEVERAL COMPLAINTS ONLY TO FALL ON DEAF EARS. THE PROPER CHANNELS TO REPORT THIS HAS BEEN FOLLOWED BUT TP NO AVAIL HAS ANYTHING BEEN DONE TO REPLACE THE TIRES (SAFETY FIRST) AND WE FEEL SOMETHING SHOULD BE DONE BEFORE A SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH OCCURS. WE HAVE SEARCHED AND FOUND NUMEROUS PROBLEMS WITH THE TOURING CONTACT AS TIRE AND BELIEVE THAT OURS HAS SOME VERY SERIOUS PROBLEMS. WE NEED HELP NOW. *NM
