| 2007 | ENGINE | I CONSTANTLY HAVE PROBLEMS WITH MY 07 COBALT, EVERY TIME IT RAINS, OR IT'S WET OUT, THE ENGINE STARTS TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY, AND GAS STARTS SPEWING OUT OF THE TAILPIPE CAUSING AN IMMENSE AMOUNT OF SMOKE TO COME OUT, BUT WHEN IT DRIES UP, THE PROBLEM STOPS, ONLY TO RESTART AGAIN WHEN IT RAINS. I'VE BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP, AND ALSO PRIVATE SHOPS, AND CALLED G.M CUSTOMER SERVICE, AND NO ONE HAS ANY CLUE AS TO WHY THIS KEEPS HAPPENING. THIS IS FUEL RELATED, AND IM WORRIED IT COULD CAUSE HARM TO ME, AND MY FAMILY IF NOT RESOLVED. SOMEHOW, WATER IS GETTING INTO THE FUEL LINE MAKING THIS HAPPEN AND NOBODY KNOWS HOW. IT EVEN HAPPENS WHEN I RUN THE A.C, WHEN THE MOISTURE FROM THE COMPRESSOR DRIPS DOWN. IT HAS BEEN VERY COSTLY TO FIND NO SOLUTION, ANY ADVICE, OR REPAIRS THAT WERE DONE TO FIX THIS WOULD BE VERY APPRECIATED AND HELPFUL. *TR |
| 2006 | FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | THE PLASTIC SUPPLY AND RETURN PORT ON THE MODULAR RESERVOIR ASSEMBLY IS CRACK, CAUSING FUEL TO LEAK. THIS IS EXACTLY THE SAME AS CURRENT NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID 09V419000. HOWEVER, GM TOLD ME THAT MY VIN IS NO COVERED UNDER THIS RECALL. THE RECALL SHOULD BE EXTENDED TO THE REST OF THE COUNTRY, INSTEAD JUST CERTAIN STATES. LUCKILY, I CAUGHT THIS ISSUE BEFORE A CAR FIRE OCCURRED. *TR |
