| Took my car to dealer because of bad clunking in front end. they replaced the bushings (while under warranty). now (58000 mi) i am having the same problem and the clunking is much worse?! seems to be an ongoing problem with these cobalts. seems there should be some kind of recall with all these complaints before there is a horrific accident!!!! also (i have the 2 door) there is a constant problem with the doors not working! all the sudden you try to get in and the handle moves but does not open! i would have to enter/exit on passenger side! i have had parts to this replaced several times now. this too could also be very dangerous if in an accident! i am still happy with my car but not with the same ongoing issues that could lead to potential disaster! | |||

| Three issues with my 2005 chevy cobalt. one the door latch broke and i can no longer get out the drivers side. if an accident were to occur i would have to crawl out the passenger side to get out of the car. secondly, my struts keep going bad on my car. i have had them replaced three times now. my third issue is the brakes. i was told that the cobalt had anitlock brakes when i bought it. however, when i have had to slam on the brakes they lock and a little light comes on with a anti brake symbol on it. | |||

| Power steering column and motor replaced for over 1,000 dollars also bushing. engines stalls when pressing gas and brake pedal. key wouldn't come out ignition and my car wouldn't stay in park. had to pay a locksmith to remove the key. headlights keep having to be adjusted. wheel bearing and struts need to be replace but i don't have the money for all of these repairs for a 2005 vehicle. its to many problems for such a newer vehicle. what is chevy going to do about this, how many more people have to die or get injured. *tr | |||

| Vehicle begins to vibrate violently at slower speeds after deceleration from highway speeds. control of vehicle is lost during most violent vibrations, and stopping the vehicle completely does not help the situation. this vibrating (on the front wheels only) will continue for miles/hours. the only things noted on any 2005 chevy cobalt were safety for interior and headlights but there have been over 1100 reports of faulty power steering. slower speeds cause this violent vibration on the front end of the vehicle. it has started approximately a year after purchase and has continued and has gotten worse since then current date 12 february 2010. condition keeps worsening, has almost caused an accident. *tr | |||

| I purchased a 2005 cobalt in april 2008, started having violent shaking in front of car while trying to find the problem my mechanic discovered a defective strut which chevy replaced even though warranty had just run out. this did not correct violent shaking occurring on a regular basis. had front end, tires, wheels, rotors, axle checked with no outcome of finding the problem. when the shaking occurs unable to steer and have to reduce speed and pull to shoulder of road, after complete stop normally can resume driving. since my daughter does not do any long distance travel i hoped that it would not occur as often as it does while i was driving it to work, however in january of 2009 while my daughter was driving car around a curve t/c light came on shaking and inability to control the car left her straightening the curve out spinning around and after weeks in a body shop and 5000 dollars in repairs, several trips back and more money, high insurance rates we still have a car that has a serious defect with no answers to what causes it and what can be done to correct it. now that she is venturing further from home i am in fear for her life but i have no funds to replace this car or it would have already been gone although i am sure that nobody else would want it due to the publicity that these cars have been getting. luckily my daughter was not killed in this accident but does someone have to die before chevrolet steps up to the plate and fixes these cars. i have been constantly been researching trying to find the problem even though i can find other people with the problem nobody seems to have the solution. the cars or in warranty or just out of warranty and we couldn't get answers and as the autos get older they don't feel it is there problem. our car gets regular maintenance with the same mechanic each time so therefore he has firsthand knowledge of every step it has had,and now that it has hit the news i am seeing some direction to take to get help. *tr | |||

| Today is aug 16 2009 and i have been having problems with my 2005 chevrolet cobalt for a while. since the last year my steering wheel has been shaking every time i put on the brakes, and starting the last 3 weeks the power steering illuminates and the steering wheel just locks and i would have to pull the vehicle on to the shoulder and shut off the engine and restart it and then it works again.this normally happens 2 or 3 times a day. i have not taken it to the dealer yet although i did speak to a service advisor about the situation and he thinks it might be the power steering pump and that it would probably run me about $1200 to fix it. i really cannot afford that kind of money due to me being unemployed. the last date that this incident happened was on aug 15 2009. please i need your help and assistance. thanks *tr | |||

| Feels like an accident waiting to happen. rattling front end noise for a few months and with my 60k mi check up it's discovered that i need 2 lower control arms (the bushings are gone) and need to replace the front struts and rear shocks as they are leaking. i have always owned a chevrolet and find this appalling. my cobalt is only 3 yrs old and needs to replace major equipment. i had an old chevy and never had to see a replacement like this until i had over 100k mi on the vehicle. i cannot find any recalls on these parts, but see many complaints. even the dealership thought i should get rid of the car??????? given the current times, who could afford that. so now i am looking at an estimate of $1821.40 to fix this. when is gm going to step up to the plate and acknowledge this problem with this vehicle. *tr | |||

| I was driving at about 20 mph after stopping at a red light when my car shut off, my dashboard lights went blank. i was able to restart my car and it has happened since. today while driving at 65 mph on the interstate, my car started to shake badly and i almost lost control. i tried to brake but it made the shaking worse. the car felt like it had lost power. i was able to pull over. i thought at first maybe a flat tire but no. as quickly as it happened it went away. i am very unhappy about this and had problems with gm cars before. you would think i would have learned my lesson and went with a honda or toyota. *nm | |||

| I own a 2005 chevy cobalt ls and have had numerous problems with it. 1st i had to take it in because the passenger side rear suspension was making clunking noises. 2nd i had to take it in because there was moisture building up inside the drivers side headlight. 3rd i had to take it in because the passenger side rear window was howling and you could hear the outside air blowing through it when driving. 4th problem i just recently am having is the heating system. the blower just does what it wants. i can have the air to the off position and it still blows air at a high speed. also, when driving the blower turns itself off and on whenever it wants to. all this and i only have 7,500 miles on my car. i won't be buying another gm vehicle! *jb | |||

| Dt: the consumer stated that he heard a snapping noise in steering column and could feel it in the steering wheel. this happened all of the time and would occur with no warning. the steering column shaft was replaced. the ignition switch was replaced because of the flashing that held the tumbler and the s had collapsed. the manufacturer told the dealer not to replace the steering column shaft but the dealer made the repairs because they had already ordered the part. *ak (12/01/05) after the column was replaced, the vehicle was taken back to the dealer twice. the wheel cover did not have enough rings to hold the rims tight and would rattle when going over light bumps, the vehicle pulled to the right and the passenger side front pillar was loose. *sc | |||

| Power steering on my 2005 cobalt goes out intermittently, it had not done it for two months. but recently, while i was taking a turn, it went out, and i was unable to keep the car in my lane and hit the curb on the opposite side of the road, thankfully no other vehicle was present in intersection, or it would have been a front end collision. now it works only for a few minutes when i turn my car on , but goes out every time i drive it. i also have problems with the power locks locking and unlocking themselves constantly while i'm driving, and even after the vehicle is parked. i can not leave it unattended because it unlocks itself. i started to have the problem shortly after purchasing it in 2007, but the warranty expired, its 63,000 miles, and cannot afford to fix it. this should not be an issue in a car less than 5 years old. i live in minnesota, and the roads are often icy, i am fearful it will happen again, and i may not be so lucky again. i have also had problems with the front suspension, i had the shocks/struts? replaced 2 months after buying it, at around 40, 000 miles, and they still have the same problem after the dealer fixed it, i should have complained then, but i was afraid to shell out more money for something else they would claim was wrong with it. *tr | |||

| I own a 2005 chevrolet cobalt, and about a month ago i was driving down a country road when my power steering message was displayed on my dashboard stating it had shutoff. this then lead to my car trying to shut itself off in the middle of the road going 55 miles per hour. the gauges were flashing, radio was flashing, the car would not shift gears and was rocking back and forth, and i couldn't really steer the car. after i was able to get it under control and stopped and shutoff it seemed to reset the system and i had no problems until a few days ago. i was driving on a very busy interstate during rush hour while going about 80 miles per hour, and the situation happened again except i was nearly in a collision with semi truck trailers, it took all i had to get it off the road without hitting anything. this scared me to death. this time the system did not reset , but i was able to limp it to the chevy dealer near my apartment. come to find out it was the :body control module that was bad. it cost me $508 dollars to fix this one issue. two weeks ago i had to take it in for a lower left front control arm bushing that was bad, and also the shifter solenoid was bad, and i had spent nearly $1100 for all of those safety issues as well. *tr | |||

| Severe steering and braking problems. mechanics can't find problem. a lot of times, on the highway or at speeds greater than 40 mph the steering starts to shudder and make a machine gun noise with each rattle. the rattling slows down as the speed slows down. there have been times where i had to pull over because it felt like a flat tire, only to get out of the car and inspect the car and see that the tires were fine. the problem goes away after shutting the car off and restarting it. when braking while going at speeds 40 mph or higher the brake gets soft and mushy feeling, and doesn't appear to slow the car down enough, and the shudder starts in the steering wheel again with the rat-a-tat sound for every shudder. i brought this car to dealer several times, and the mechanics could not get the car to do the same for them. the last time, one of the staff members mentioned that there may be a problem with the electronic steering/suspension system ,and that gm was trying to figure it out. recently, i took the car in for a brake check at another shop - the mechanic said the brakes were fine, nothing' was wrong with them, but the car still did its shuddering. i' had two front end alignments, and rotation of wheels, still the same problem. i feel that one of these days the shuddering is going to cause a potentially fatal problem, when the brakes, steering or suspension go out. i also noticed on 6 different occasions that the brake light came on just for a second. it's never stayed on, and it didn't come on during the shuddering moments. the car stalled a couple times, but they were so far and few between. the back light on dashwas hard to read when headlights were automatically on during the day. *ak | |||

| 12/26/05 at 3:30 p.m. on interstate i-495/wilmington, de bypass. road straight with no debris and dry. heading southbound in the far left lane of a three lane divided road. gaurdrails on both sides. doing 65 mph/speed limit. center lane was a walmart semi tractor trailer doing 62 mph. in front of my lane near the front of the truck were two cars about 5 car lengths ahead. my car jerked radically to the right and then back to the left twice in rapid succession. the car then jerked violently to the right and the left front of the car impacted the back bumper of the truck. the truck driver felt a bump and started to brake. my car rotated clockwise until i was going down the road backwards about 50-55 mph in the first lane alongside the stopping truck. the car pulled again to the right and the rear of my car impacted the guardrail. the rear window exploded and i felt cold air. the car rotated again, this time counter-clockwise until i was going down the road backwards again. speed was about 30-35 mph at this time. the car again pulled to the right and there was no guardrail. my car came to a stop in the green strip in the center of the interstate at about a 45 degree angle facing southbound. the driver's side door was damaged and i had to force it open to exit the vehicle. it was then that i discovered the left rear tire had come off the vehicle and was about 50 feet away on the inside shoulder of the road. all four lug nuts were still on the tire and it was still inflated. the delaware state police responded and filed a report. the insurance adjuster took pictures of the car at the towing facility yard and the damage was noted. there was damage to the front side of the car and the rear. the right side of the car was basically intact. left side of car was completely destroyed. the left rear wheel assembly was completely destroyed including the brake drum, shock, spring, axle, housing and all rods and connections. the car was a total loss. *nm | |||
