Driving on the highway at 60 mph when all electrical dashboard went down. First light to come on the vehicle was the security system light which was explained to me that your car is suppose to shut down if stolen then it went off after a few minutes. Once that light went off then the vehicle ABS, traction control lights came on and the vehicle could not pick up speed nor drove properly or safely. The vehicle cruise control also went off. Power steering light came on too. The vehicle lost power for ABS, traction control, cruise control and power steering. Once pulled over on side of the road the check engine light came on too. Tried to start driving the vehicle again to get it off the highway vehicle was difficult to drive couldn't reach speed very slow - did not drive properly. Safely pulled over again and shut vehicle off. Check engine light and other lights on dash stayed on. Could not get key out of ignition it stayed in the 2nd switch stuck (not running). Tow truck driver had to come and tow because vehicle wouldn't start nor would the key come out. Finally tow truck driver was able to get the key out of the ignition and towed it to a shop. Next day shop turned on the vehicle and could not find anything wrong. Dealer could not find anything wrong with electrical panel. Ran numerous test on vehicle including dealer driving vehicle and still nothing could be found. They say they can't fix anything because nothing is wrong with my car. Obviously there is something wrong with Chevrolet vehicles and the electrical panels going down in which I lost all cruise control, traction control, ABS, electronic stability control and panic braking assist operation. Thankfully I was not in an accident and was able to pull off the highway safely.

The check engine light has been on continuously for the past year. Multiple diagnostic test have pointed to a coil pack or spark plug misfire prompting a replacement. Each time the coil pack or spark plugs are replaced, the check engine light goes off and within the span of a few hours or the next day the light comes back on again. I take the vehicle back in for another diagnostic and the same code pops up again. There is a continuous misfire which cause the car to loose the ability to accelerate or cause the vehicle to shake violently while driving. The A/C increases the chances of these occurrences. At the last check the mechanic finally told me that there must be an electrical problem because he keeps getting the same code and they have replaced it too many times for it to still be the same problem. It was suggested to me that this problem may be a manufacture defect. I looked into it and have found similar complaints from other Cobalt owners.
