Consumer Description

MY 2005 CHEVY COBALT HAS SEVERAL ISSUE WITH TRACTION CONTROL, ABS, AND EMERGENCY BRAKES. I HAVE TAKEN THIS CAR TO THE CHEVY DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIRS MULTIPLE TIMES AND THE SAME PROBLEM KEEPS RECURRING. ALL THE WARNING LIGHT FOR TC, ABS, AND EMERGENCY BRAKE ARE ON AGAIN AND WHEN THIS SENSOR FAILS THE CAR SHIFTS GEARS AND LOSES TRACTION CONTROL. VERY DANGEROUS ESPECIALLY IN WET WEATHER CONDITIONS. I HAVE HEARD THIS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THESE TYPES OF CHEVY CARS. SO WHAT'S IT GOING TO TAKE TO GET A RECALL! A FATALITY? SOMEONE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS. *TR
