The contact owns a 2006 Chevrolet Cobalt. The contact stated the gear shift selector failed several times, and had been replaced twice. The first repair was covered by factory warranty. The second repair was at the owners expense. The manufacturer was contacted but would not provide any assistance. The manufacturer advised the failure occurred because she drove the vehicle too often and wore out the selector. The failure mileage was approximately 30,000 and the current mileage was approximately 68,000. Updated 07/21/10.

Internal binding of the floor shift assembly of my 2006 Chevy Cobalt with automatic transmission prevented the key from being removed from the ignition. Also the push button latch on the top of the shifter was stuck inside the shifter causing the shifter to freely move from park to drive without the button being pushed. I took the car to sands Chevrolet and the shifter was replaced under warranty with part number 15926820.
