Cobalt

  • 12,000 miles
I have a 2007 Chevy Cobalt with a leaking sunroof. It has been to the dealer to be fixed 4 times. I was told: It cannot be fixed permanently, don't park it outside in the elements, bring it in regularly to have the drain lines cleared out, etc. It has been parked under our carport all winter. Took it out 2 days ago and it rained last night.... it leaks! the car smells and it only has 21,000 miles on it. A car with a sunroof/moonroof should be made to drive out in the elements. I have had numerous cars with the same kind of roof and it never leaked. The car is faulty and I am extremely frustrated. Spoke to GM executive office and the said "bring it back to the dealer to be fixed". lesson: If your roof leaks on a GM car, get a new one! very poor customer assistance and service.

2007 Chevy Cobalt- many problems, electrical comes off and on, car rides like a bucket of bolts, at 50,000 kms front passenger wheel had 1 1/2 inch movement while parked. Very dangerous. Why no recalls for these issues? the fixer of the car replaced a suspension control arm bushing. All kinds of noise, all pot holes I thought the car was going to fall apart. Hunk of junk car. Many safety issues should be investigated. Brought back to the dealer several times for sagging doors on two door model, irregular idol, rattling sounds in the front end to no avail. Thank god I only leased it, they can keep it, it is a hunk of junk. I would never recommend this car to anyone.
