NHTSA Complaint #10595654 — 2009 CHEVROLET COBALT

I WAS GOING UP A HILL TO GO TO WORK TO PICK UP MY PAYCHECK THAT DAY. I PUSHED ON THE GAS PEDAL I WAS ONLY GOING 10 OR 15 MPH WHEN THE CAR COMPLETELY SHUT OFF. IT LOST ALL POWER AND I FREAKED OUT; BECAUSE IT HAPPENED SO FAST THAT IT SCARED ME HALF TO DEATH. THANK GOD THERE WAS NO ONE BEHIND ME. I PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND PUT MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE AND I HAD TO RESTART THE CAR. THEN I PUT IT BACK INTO DRIVE AND DROVE UP THE HILL. I WAS SO SCARED AND FRIGHTENED THAT IT SCARED HALF TO DEATH. I AM STILL SCARED AND FREAKED OUT TO DRIVE THE CAR. EVERYTIME I DRIVE IT I AM SO NERVOUS. I JUST WANT THE IGNITION SWITCH FIXED. I JUST WANT IT FIXED. THE CAR DEALER IN OWN TOLD ME THEY DO NOT HAVE THE PART TO FIX IT YET. THEY TOLD ME I HAVE TO DRIVE IT AND IT WON'T BE READY FOR ANOTHER MONTH OR SO. THAT DOES NOT HELP THE SITUATION AT ALL. IT ONLY ADDS TO THE MISERY OF IT ALL. *TR
