Consumer Description

I PURCHASED A CHEVY COBALT BRAND NEW IN 2005. FROM THE MOMENT IT LEFT DEALERSHIP I HAVE HAD ONE RECALL ISSUE AFTER ANOTHER. THE MAIN ISSUE IS STALLING WHILE DRIVING CAUSED BY THE IGNITION SWITCH. THIS HAD BEEN FIXED AT SCHUMACER CHEVROLET SEVERAL TIMES. MY VEHICLE CONTINUES TO STALL AND I AM TERRIFIED OF CAUSING AN ACCIDENT DUE TO THIS RECALL WHICH GM REFUSES TO FIX. I FEEL I WAS SOLD A LEMON AND ALL I GET FROM GM AND THE LOCAL DEALERS IS NOTHING. MY VEHICLE IS WORSE WITH THE STALLING. I DON'T KNOW WHERE TO TURN TO. PLEASE HELP. I DON'T WANT MONETARY COMPENSATION FROM GM IF I OR ANY PASSENGER IN MY VEHICLE DIES IN AN ACCIDENT DUE TO A MALFUNCTION DUE TO GM. *TR
