NHTSA Complaint #10855444 — 2005 CHEVROLET COBALT

THIS ISSUE SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE 2005 COBALT. PLEASE RESEARCH ANY CAR COMPLAINT WEBSITES ABOUT THIS CERTAIN VEHICLE. EVEN THOUGH ALL THE RECALLS HAVE BEEN TAKEN CARE OF, WHILE IN MOTION, AT ANY TIME AND ANY SPEED, THE DASH LIGHTS STARTS FLASHING AND YOU GET THE MESSAGE POWER STEERING ON MESSAGE CENTER, TC LIGHT COMES ON, LIGHT THAT SHOWS PADLOCK SYMBOL COMES ON, RPM NEEDLE JUMPS UP AND DOWN, STEERING WHEEL LOCKS UP, MOTOR SURGES AND SHAKES, AND YOU HEAR ALL TYPES OF CLICKING SOUNDS BELOW GEAR SHIFTER. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS THING AND CHEVROLET/GM JUST CANNOT SEEM TO FIX THIS ISSUE OR EVEN FIND ANYTHING WRONG. THE 2005 COBALT NEEDS TO BE RECALLED AND ANY OTHER YEAR OF COBALT HAVING THIS ISSUE. I WILL GIVE YOU BELOW THE LAST DATE THIS HAS HAPPENED, BUT THIS HAS WENT ON SINCE WE GOT THE CAR IN 2008. MY DAUGHTER IS IN SCHOOL IN KANSAS CITY, AND THIS ISSUE HAS HAPPENED QUITE FREQUENTLY LATELY. THE ONLY REMEDY IS TO PULL TO SIDE OF ROAD, SHUT OFF VEHICLE AND RESTART AND HOPE IT DOES NOT ACT UP AGAIN. I JUST WONDER HOW MAY DEATHS HAVE HAPPENED ALREADY BECAUSE OF THIS FAULTY GM PRODUCT AND NO ONE KNEW IT WAS BECAUSE OF WHAT THE COBALT DID, LOCKED UP ON ITS DRIVER.
