| 2005 | STEERING | POWER STEERING IN MY 2005 CHEVROLET COBALT CONSTANTLY GOES ON AND OFF. CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS AT TIMES. MANY OTHER PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM, WITH AN ESTIMATED COST OF $2,000. *TR |
| 2008 | EXTERIOR LIGHTING | THE AUDIO INDICATOR FOR THE TURN SIGNALS, CHIME FOR SAFETY BELTS, DOOR AJAR (ALL WARNING CHIMES) STOPPED WORKING. THE LEFT FRONT SPEAKER STOPPED WORKING FOR THE RADIO AS WELL. (I'VE LOOKED THIS UP ON THE INTERNET, AND SUPPOSEDLY ALL AUDIO INDICATORS COME THROUGH THE SPEAKER.) THIS APPEARS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH MANY COBALTS, OVER A LONG TIME (I'VE SEEN IT MENTIONED FOR MANY MODEL YEARS). IT IS ALWAYS THE SAME, THE LEFT FRONT SPEAKER STOPS WORKING (NONE OF THE OTHERS) AND THE AUDIO WARNING EQUIPMENT STOPS FUNCTIONING. *TR |
