NHTSA Complaint #10567860 — 2008 CHEVROLET COBALT

I WAS ON MY WAY TO WORK THIS MORNING ON AND NOTICED MY CAR 'STUTTERING' AS FEW MOMENTS AT A TIME. AFTER I PROCEEDED FROM A STOP POSITION AND CONTINUED OFF THE HIGHWAY, THE CAR DASHBOARD BEGAN TO LIGHT UP, ALMOST AS IF IT WAS SHORTENING OUT. THE SPEEDOMETER, FUEL GAUGE, AND MY RPM KEPT MOVING BACK AND FORTH QUICKLY. THERE WERE MULTIPLE MESSAGES FLASHING SUCH AS POWERSTEERING, LOW TRACTION, NO TRACTION. MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, ANTITHEFT LIGHT, AND THE TRACTION LIGHT KEPT FLASHING. THEN I LOST POWER STEERING AND MY CAR ULTIMATELY 'DIED' ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. *TR
