Consumer Description

THREE ISSUES WITH MY 2005 CHEVY COBALT. ONE THE DOOR LATCH BROKE AND I CAN NO LONGER GET OUT THE DRIVERS SIDE. IF AN ACCIDENT WERE TO OCCUR I WOULD HAVE TO CRAWL OUT THE PASSENGER SIDE TO GET OUT OF THE CAR. SECONDLY, MY STRUTS KEEP GOING BAD ON MY CAR. I HAVE HAD THEM REPLACED THREE TIMES NOW. MY THIRD ISSUE IS THE BRAKES. I WAS TOLD THAT THE COBALT HAD ANITLOCK BRAKES WHEN I BOUGHT IT. HOWEVER, WHEN I HAVE HAD TO SLAM ON THE BRAKES THEY LOCK AND A LITTLE LIGHT COMES ON WITH A ANTI BRAKE SYMBOL ON IT. *TR
