Cobalt LS 4.0L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 60,000 miles

I've been having a problem with my 06 Cobalt for a while. Sometimes when I crank the car up, it will turn right back off. When I crank it up again, shortly after driving it cuts off. Also, when at maybe a stop light, it will shudder and soon after will cut off. It has been so bad that at times, I have made turns and almost been hit because my car just cuts off. I am making plans to take off work to take to the dealer...

Cobalt LS 2.2L

  • Manual transmission
  • 30,000 miles

I have taken my car to 2 different dealerships, one in California, one in Florida, while it was still under warranty. Neither one was able to find the problem. They tell me nothing is wrong with it. I'm pretty sure there is something wrong with it when every time I come to a stop the car shudders, sometimes so violently, I worry it will stall out or die in the middle of the road. I'm going to try a 3rd dealership this month, this one in Maryland. My factory warranty has already run out, but luckily, I had the forethought to pay for the extended warranty when I bought the car. I'm hoping some others have had this problem so they can help me figure out what I need to do.
