2007 CHEVROLET COBALT Complaints

ENTERED CAR (DRIVER'S SIDE) AND DID NOT CLOSE DOOR COMPLETELY. "DOOR AJAR" INDICATOR DID NOT REMAIN LIT. DROVE AWAY AND WHILE DRIVING DOOR OPENED. NO CAR WAS IN OPPOSING LANE (2 LANE ROAD) SO NOTHING WAS STRUCK BY THE OPEN DOOR. MY SAFETY COMPLAINT IS THAT THE "DOOR AJAR" LIGHT TURNS OFF BEFORE IT SHOULD (BEFORE THE DOOR IS COMPLETELY CLOSED AND LATCHED. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER TODAY (10/19) AND EXPLAINED THE CONCERN. THEY AGREED THAT IT WAS A PROBLEM AND ACTUALLY TESTED SEVERAL OTHER CARS (SAME MODEL) ON THE NEW CAR LOT AND FOUND THAT THEY ALL HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. THEY ALSO TESTED THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR AND IT HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. THEY SPOKE WITH THEIR REGIONAL REP AND WERE TOLD THAT IT WAS A "KNOWN CHARACTERISTIC" OF THE VEHICLE AND NOTHING COULD BE DONE TO FIX IT. I THEN CALLED THE GENERAL MOTORS NATIONAL CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE CENTER AND WAS TOLD EXACTLY THE SAME THING. IN MY OPINION THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY PROBLEM SINCE THE CAR DOES NOT WARN YOU THAT THE DOOR IS NOT COMPLETELY CLOSED AND LATCHED AS IT SHOULD. *NM
