1 Latches/locks/linkage problem

Failure Date: 04/06/2011

Chrome plated door handle on 2007 chevy Cobalt. The chrome has come off and sliced opened my hand. You are taking to long to force gm to recall vehicles with bad handles. You are already investigating the 2007 tahoe for the same problem. Now that we are all part owner of gm and taxpayers keep NHTSA running, stop taking so long with the "red tape" and do the right thing.

2 Latches/locks/linkage problem

The contact owns a 2007 Chevrolet Cobalt. The contact stated after locking the doors with the remote keyless entry, the doors would unlock independently hours later. The contact stated that he had changed the batteries in the remote but did not remedy the issue. The contact also purchased another keyless entry remote and the failure recurred. The contact called the manufacturer regarding the failure and the manufacturer could not provide any assistance to the contact. The contact was concerned with vandalism or theft. The failure mileage was 105,000. The VIN was not available.

3 Latches/locks/linkage problem

Failure Date: 01/03/2009

My 2007 Chevrolet Cobalt lt sedan has door lock issues. The car will not unlock using the remote until the 15th time of hitting the bottom. Some times more, some times less. Both of my remote batteries have been replaced and circuits soldered. Nothing is helping. The problem could be the computer or the door lock actuator or something entirely different.

4 Latches/locks/linkage problem

Failure Date: 05/01/2007

Terrible clunking sound in the front end of my 2007 Cobalt. Dealer says its control arm bushings and sway bar links. Personal mechanic confirmed the sway bar links needed to be replaced, but also saw that the arm bushings were in perfect condition and perfectly tight. Replaced links, but noise persists. When trying to find out what to do next I went to the internet where I discovered this seems to be a widespread problem. Help please and investigate so gm can recall the faulty materials.
