2010 CHEVROLET COBALT Complaints

I AM HAVING AN ISSUE... WHEN I ROLL MY DRIVERS SIDE WINDOW DOWN THE SERVICE AIR BAG LIGHT COMES ON. *TR

VEHICLE WILL SHUT OFF WITHOUT WARNING AS I AM DRIVING AND WHEN I TRY TO TURN IT BACK ON THE ENGINE SEEMS TO STRUGGLE TO TURN ON. I HAVE NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON DASH BOARD. *TR

MY BOYFRIEND AND I WERE ON OUR WAY HOME FROM CHICAGO (ON I-80/90) WHEN WE HIT A BIT OF LAKE EFFECT SNOW AND ICE. THE SNOW CAUSED OUR CAR TO LOSE TRACTION WHICH IN TURN CAUSED US TO HIT A GUARD RAIL HEAD ON WHILE GOING ROUGHLY 50-55 MPH. OUR AIRBAGS DID NOT GO OFF EVEN THOUGH WE HIT THE GUARD RAIL HEAD ON. WE ENDED UP BEING PERPENDICULAR IN THE RIGHT HAND LANE AND WAS HIT BY A SEMI TRUCK ON THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR. AGAIN, OUR AIR BAGS DID NOT GO OFF WHICH WOULD MAKE FOR A TOTAL OF 4 AIRBAGS THAT WERE AFFECTED. I WAS UNAWARE OF AFFECTED AIR BAGS - I ONLY KNEW ABOUT MY IGNITION SWITCH WHICH WAS FIXED MONTHS PRIOR TO THE ACCIDENT. UNACCEPTABLE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CHEVROLET COBALT. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH, THE STEERING WHEEL BECAME DIFFICULT TO MANEUVER AND THE POWER STEERING WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED.

ON MONDAY MARCH 16TH 2015 WHILE I WAS DRIVING TO WORK THE SERVICE AIR BAG MESSAGE CAME ON AGAIN AND ALSO THE LIGHT CAME ON ALSO NOW AT THIS POINT THE MESSAGE AND THE LIGHT CAME ON. I READ THE OWNERS MANUAL FOR MY CHEVY COBALT AND THE WARNING STATES 'IF THE AIRBAG READINESS LIGHT STAYS ON AFTER THE VEHICLE IS STARTED OR COME ON WHILE DRIVING IT MEANS THE AIRBAG SYSTEM MIGHT NOT BE WORKING PROPERLY. THE AIRBAG IN THE VEHICLE MIGHT NOT INFLATE IN A CRASH OR THEY COULD EVEN INFLATE WITHOUT A CRASH. TO HELP AVOID INJURY, HAVE THE VEHICLE SERVICED RIGHT AWAY". SO I CALL CHEVY CUSTOMER CARE AGAIN AND THEY GAVE ME A CASE NUMBER#71-1451260282 I SPOKE WITH MARK NUMBER 1-866-790-5700 EXT 41569 HE TOLD ME TO TAKE IT IN TO THE DEALER AND HAVE IT CHECKED. I ASK MARK IF THEY WOULD BE ABLE TO HELP ME PAY FOR THIS BUT HE SAID IT DEPENDS ON WHAT IT IS AND STATED THAT THE CAR WAS NOT UNDER WARRANTY BECAUSE OF THE AMOUNT OF YEARS AND MILEAGE. I FEEL THAT A RECALL SHOULD BE ISSUED BECAUSE THIS MAY HAVE HAPPEN TO OTHER PEOPLE AND JUST HAVE NOT BEEN REPORTED BECAUSE PEOPLE DO NOT KNOW HOW TO REPORT THESE THINGS . . *TR
