I have a concern that needs to be address. My passenger seat light comes on and goes off on its own. I had my car looked sometime ago at a dealership along with problems with the window on the front passenger side. Now the back passenger right side window just went out without a warning. I am now stuck with a window. That I cannot roll up or even manually. I am starting to believe my car I purchased brand new with 9 miles on it. Have electrical issue, that have not been address. This car is not old enough to have this types of problems. I am just baffled of however everything is out of pocket. Last year I spent over $200 getting my car fixed something about fuel line or something was clogged. I am like how is that possible when I take my car in for oil changes on the regular. This is not a 7 year old or plus car. I shouldn't be having these problems already in my 1st year - 4th year. I had to change batteries twices as well. Can you please assist. Multiple car problems for a 2014 I brought new are causing me a hardship.

The car will stall intermittently while driving down the road for just 1-3 seconds and seems to not be running and then it will turn itself back on.. the stereo and dash lights will go completely dark at random times while in motion and then come back on randomly or when restarted. After exiting the vehicle and removing the key the stereo will turn itself back on sometimes and you will return to the car to hear the stereo on. Have had the remote control key stop working to lock or unlock the car. It will happen for 1 or 2 times and then go back to normal. All of these items have been occurring for about the past 1-1 1/2 years.

Steering issues: When I bought the car they had to do something with the electrical system because car wouldn't do anything the day after I brought it home from the dealer. This problem is with my steering. Which happened after they service my cars airbag in my steering wheel. It was fixed twice, and now it's a problem again. I shouldn't be on the hook for paying for this.

Thermostat housing and water intake problem. The factory water intake is plastic and does not stand up to heat so it warps and starts leaking. It leaks more when the vehicle is running and under pressure but still drips when the vehicle is parked this causes the check engine light to come on. Went to the dealer they wanted $503 to put 2 gaskets in and would not guarentee what they said it was would fix the problem. I went on your web site and saw 18% of the Sonics sold have this problem. That is only the ones who have complained. I replaced the factory water intake with a metal one and it was good until the plug (which was installed by the manufacturer) on the underside started leaking.

Transmission has always had problems hard shift/no shift slipping at 60K had to be fixed but still acts up. Engine coolant pump had to be replaced within a year of purchase and it was not covered by warranty and 3 thermostat housings have been put on. Upon placing the vehicle in park the engine will rev to about 5K rpms. The key gets increadibly hot while driving and it actually burned my daughter. If the key is left in the ignition after parking the vehicle will continually try to crank it's self. If there is any kind of wind the vehicle will sway and becomes difficult to control.

Approximately 2 weeks ago, my airbag warning light came on. The manual said to take it to the dealership immediately as the airbag could fail to deploy in an accident or could deploy for no reason causing severe injury. I noticed there had been a recall issued for this vehicle in 2014 for this issue. Actions: GM will notify owners, and dealers will test the terminals in the ip harness clock spring coil connector and replace any loose terminals, free of charge. The recall began in October 2014. Owners may contact Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020. GM's number for this recall is 14537. For detailed information & supporting documents, see the official NHTSA page concerning recall #14V543000. I called the number at Chevy customer service, and they were no help-said my VIN number wasn't listed in the recall. I am very concerned about this as it seems a coincidence that I have the exact vehicle and the exact problem.......the dealership in provo, Utah, did a diagnosis and said since the light wasn't on at the exact time of the diagnosis that they couldn't tell. I can't predict when it will come on, and when it does come on it is usually off by the time I find a dealership. I am concerned that I could be severely injured due to this problem and feel it could be taken care of if I could find someone that gave a hoot. It comes on when I am driving.

I own a 2014 Chevrolet Sonic. The radio no longer works and I have no audible warning chimes for keys in ignition, door open, turn signal, seatbelt. Also no dash lights. I see there is a recall 17130. I have spoke with the dealership in my area, they refuse to do the repairs because I do not have a recall letter. When checking my VIN, there are no reported recalls. I need a recall letter so I may have this repaired. Thank you

I had recall 17130 installed in the vehicle. After installation the following problems were noted: 1) radio will not shut off if key is left in ignition. 2) if key is removed and reinserted without exiting the vehicle the vehicle still not comply with federal/Canada motor vehicle safety standard no 114 as the vehicle does not provide an audible warning/reminder chime when the driver, after turning off the ignition and leaving the key in the cylinder, exits the vehicle.

It started earlier when I went into the store. Before I could make it back to the car to turn the car on or even unlock the doors with my keys the car was playing music and the lights where flashing on and off. I actually knew what to do because this has happened before and the car returned back to normal. Late on today I parked my car turned the wheels towards the sidewalk because the car was on a hill going downwards. I got out the car locked all of the doors went into the community center where I remained for about an 1hr came out unlocked the car doors get in the car where the radio automatically come on the lights in the car started flashing on and off. That's was pretty weird I put the car in the ignition and the key would not turn nor would the steering column move. I couldn't even turn the wheel I called the dealership and the customer service telephone number for Chevy and I was advised that they needed to tow my car to the closest dealership

Traded in my original recall Chevy colbalt 2005 in April 2014. I was given a trade in amount which I used to put down on a new car, Chevrolet Sonic 2014. I had it all of a week when suddenly I was driving and stepping on the gas peddle it began to slow down to not moving regardless to how much I stepped on the gas. Naturally, I was very upset. I called for help.they transferred me into a different 2014 Sonic. From day 1 I notice problems not concerned only because the issue lasted 10-15 minutes and then it was fine. The problem began with not being able to open trunk, doors lock of steering wheel when exiting the car and the beeping sound as if something was left on in the car. As time passed it was happening more frequent. Finally in April 2015 the beeping and steering wheel and all the above now wouldnt stop. I ran it to service. They did a total global diagnostic said all was now fine. I left with ease, within 3 weeks on May 9th my daughter and I were coming home and just parked. I couldnt open any locks remote didn't work manual locks didn't work the car was in total shut down. I didn't have my cell phone, I belong to onstar and called them for help. To my surprise they refused me roadside asst saying its an electrical issue they don't get involved. That's another issue. Being in fla stuck in a hot car for over an hour of fear in a state of panic, I tried pushing every button possible out of fear, and crazy as it sounds I turn the button headlights from auto to off { take note the lights were not on } and suddenly the locks opened. Strange.towed car to service again, held it for a week and cant find any issues. Not satisfied due to the issues in the past and most recent. I know something is seriously wrong. Spoke to corporate and no one wants to do anything.they are only offering me 11,000 and I have an outstanding loan for 13,200. So I will be without a car.
