NHTSA Complaint #10779601 — 2010 CHEVROLET COBALT

WAS DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS GOING UP A INCLINE (HILL) WHEN MY CAR CHIMED AND A MESSAGE READ (ENGINE POWER REDUCED) WAS IN THE OUTSIDE PASSING LANE WITH A SEMI BEHIND ME PASSING A SLOWER MOVING CAR. CAR POWER REDUCED TO 30MPH AND LUNGED LIKE NOT GETTING ENOUGH FUEL. I BARELY MISSED A NARROW ESCAPE OF GETTING REAR ENDED. GOT OVER IN THE SLOW LANE THE HIGHWAY BECOME NARROW WITH NO SHOULDER TO PULL OVER SO I WAS GOING TO DRIVE TILL I COULD PULL OVER BUT THEM ANOTHER CHIME AND MY DASH READ (ENGINE DISABLED) AND MOTOR SHUT OFF. COAST TO SOMEONE'S DRIVEWAY AND SET THERE SHAKING FROM BEING SCARED FOR ABOUT 15 MINUTES. DECIDED TO TRY IGNITION AND THE CAR RESTARTED AND WAS ABLE TO LIMP TO A PULL OFF AND CALL FOR A TOW HOME. I REALIZE MY CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND HAS 119K MILES ON IT BUT NOBODY SHOULD BE FACED WITH A SITUATION LIKE I WAS PUT IN. ALSO I CONTACTED MY LOCAL DEALER MONTHS AGO ABOUT MY IGNITION RECALL AND WAS TOLD THEY WOULD ORDER THE PARTS THEN CALL ME TO BRING MY CAR IN AND LIKE I SAID THAT WAS ALMOST 3 MONTHS AGO AND I HAVE HEARD NOTHING NO PHONE CALL.
