2010 CHEVROLET COBALT Complaints

The electrical assisted power steering failed. This causes the vehicle's steering to become very difficult and dangerous not only to the driver but also other vehicles. This problem has been noted as a recall issue for this model/year vehicle but this vin number shows no recall issues. This vehicle was bought new by me and was given to our son about 3 years ago. He has taken very good care of it since he uses it to travel to work. Vehicle currently had 128,842 miles and has had no issues other than the above issue. Vehicle is available for inspection.

My car was smelling like gas, and I noticed a significant drip under my car. After investigating, it looks like its my fuel line that is corroded and leaking, in the back left of the car.

THE UNDERCARRIAGE OF MY CAR IS RUST FREE. HOWEVER, IN FRONT OF THE DRIVER'S SIDE REAR WHEEL THERE'S A FUEL LEAK. AND ONLY LEAKS WHILE RUNNING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CHEVROLET COBALT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WERE UNKNOWN RECALLS ON THE VEHICLE REGARDING THE IGNITION SWITCH AND STEERING WHICH WERE PREVIOUSLY REPAIRED HOWEVER, AFTER STARTING THE VEHICLE, A MESSAGE APPEARED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL WHICH STATED THAT THE POWER STEERING FEATURE WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BAYWAY CHEVROLET (5719 BROADWAY ST, PEARLAND, TX 77581) WHO DIAGNOSED THE VEHICLE AND STATED THAT THE BODY CONTROL MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

FUEL IS LEAKING NEAR LEFT REAR TIRE -STEERING WHEEL MAKES CRACKLING NOISE WHEN TURNING

THE FUEL LINE CORRODED NEAR REAR DRIVER SIDE BACK DOOR/WHEEL WELL. LEAKS FUEL REALLY BAD.

A STRONG GASOLINE SMELL WAS NOTICED AFTER PARKING THE CAR IN THE GARAGE AND STEPPING OUT OF THE CAR ON THE DRIVER SIDE. THE DRIVE BEFORE THE GASOLINE SMELL WAS NOTICED CONSISTED OF AROUND 5 MINUTES OF CITY DRIVING, 10 MINUTES OF HIGHWAY, FOLLOWED BY ANOTHER 5 MINUTES OF CITY. THE SMELL DOES NOT SEEM TO BE COMING FROM UNDER THE HOOD AND SNOW MELT MADE CHECKING FOR DRIPS UNDER THE CAR DIFFICULT. THE CAUSE OF THE GASOLINE SMELL IS UNKNOWN.

WHILE CAR HAS BEEN PARKED, WHEN YOU INSERT THE KEY IN THE IGNITION TO START THE VEHICLE THE KEY WILL NOT MOVE AND THE KEY IS STUCK IN IGNITION.

I ENTERED THE GARAGE AND SMELLED THE STRONG ODOR OF GAS. THE CAR HAD RECENTLY BEEN PARKED IN THE GARAGE AFTER RETURNING FROM A 115 MILE INTERSTATE TRIP. AFTER INVESTIGATING I FOUND A PUDDLE OF GAS ON THE CEMENT FLOOR UNDER THE CAR IN FRONT THE THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE TIRE. I STARTED THE CAR AND BACKED IT OUT TO THE DRIVEWAY DURING WHICH THE GAS LEAK WAS MUCH MORE SUBSTANTIAL. THE GAS LINE IS VERY CORRODED WHERE IT MEETS THE INSULATION WRAPPING NEAR THE CAR'S EXHAUST PIPE. IT APPEARS THE GAS LINE FAILED AT THAT SPOT AND WILL NEED TO BE REMOVED AND REPLACED.

MY POWER STEERING JUST WENT OUT. HATED TO TURN ETC. THE CAR WAS GONE THEN JUST WENT BAD.
