Thanks again Chevy for making my day a sh*tty one and trying to come up with the money to fix my lemon cobalt.Ĭ ® is an online automotive complaint resource that uses graphs to show automotive defect patterns, based on complaint data submitted by visitors to the site. I went thru the recall of the ignition problem and was without my car for 3 plus months. Don't know if I will ever buy a chevy car again. Why didn't they treat the fuel lines with something to prevent rust since the car is driving in michigan. The fuel lines rusted out due to winter weather and poor design of the fuel lines and the placement of the fuel lines. That's crazy but that's all we could come up with so now the car is unusable. they where made in canada so its going to take 7-10 business days to get here. So we went to look for replacement parts on line. we can not use the car at all due to the gas is spilling out as soon as you hit your ignition. He determined that the gas was coming from rusted out fuel lines by the fuel tank where there is a 90% angle. I call my husband and ran and got my dad to look at. I was freaking out I have my son with me and the gas was leaking a 1 inch away from the hot exhaust pipe. I looked down and seen gas leaking on my driver side in front of the rear tire. when I stopped to get out of the car the smell of gas overtook me. I was driving home and the car was acting sluggish. Hi I have a 2006 cobalt LS 2.2 I have had it since new. I will never purchase another Chevy but like I mentioned, I'm not ready to part with this car. We're just the customers who trusted in this company and they have clearly let me down. These are all the manufacturers mistakes not any wrong doing on my part. I had my children in the car, what if it would have caught fire? I'd also like to know, if I already had a recall on the fuel pump or modular, does that have anything to do with this and shouldn't that have prevented this problem?Ĭhevy needs to be held accountable for these problems and all the mistakes they have made. What's the difference? Chevy needs to properly fix all of their cheap mistakes and quit putting peoples lives in danger. Apparently there is no recall on my VIN but there is on others. WHAT? How can so many things go wrong with 1 vehicle? I've never experienced anything like this from any other vehicles I've owned, so this car just continues to shock me.Īnyway I don't know what to do. So I shut the car off, jumped out and saw the gas pouring from under the car. Now to the newest problem, I went out and started my car and all of sudden smelled a strong gas odor, continued to set there for a minute smelling and wondering where it was coming from, then I realize my gas gauge is actually going down. Yet I can't bring myself to get rid of this car. They make things as cheap as they possibly can. It seems they do not care for their customers at all. I used to be a Chevy fan but I will not say that ever again. So this car is actually special to me or trust me when I say I would not still own it. This car belonged to my little brother who was killed along with his fiance pregnant with my nephew and my father in a tragic car crash. I still loved this car because of the sentimental value I have for it. The turn signals quit turning off after making turns, I had to turn them back off. Such as never being able to get the check engine light to go off. I've already went through recalls with the ignition and fuel pump, and all the countless things that have went wrong with it. There has been so many things go wrong with this car that I can't believe it's able to be sold.
