Chevrolet Cobalt had a ignition switch recall which I did and now a couple months later I can hear the ignition switch click on and off repeatedly,the anti theft system is now on and engaged,the symbol is constantly on,it thinks that my car is stolen,even when I drive it'll be on it'll disable my gauges, my gauges will not work and if they do they work for a second and go off repeatedly,the car will flash dash icons like if it was a christmas tree show, it looks like if an alien race came in and keep messing with it. . Sometimes the car won't even start, it won't kick over, on the digital display of my dash I get dash marks cause of a computer error cause of a another faulty ignition switch. The cars gauges as I try to drive will not work, the icons on the dash will keep rotating from other icons, this car is dangerous in my own opinion. When I drive the gauges won't work and it's so dangerous, I can't see the speed or my rpms, I can't see how much gas I have, my radio is no good, the leather they used for the seats was garbage, the paint was done by an amateur, the paint is coming off the car, rust is developing, my doors will open and close themselves, I never had this problem before doing the recall. The ignition switch turns off my airbags,my radio does not work, my wheels hubs have broke cause they used cheap wheel hubs on a sports car, the ignition coil packs are garbage. The car is defective, I spent close to $22,000 to $24,000,in 2006 for my 2006 Chevrolet Cobalt 2. 4 ss which has less than 71,000 miles. They pushed a cheap crappy parts car with cheap paint and no rust prevention,also the wiring of electronics in the car was complete [xxx], the wiring harnesses on all the wires is crumbling,the wiring to the battery in the rear trunk of the car is a fail,Chevrolet pushed a car out that was no ready for market,they pushed a car out that was defective and dangerous.

After two hub failures, stabilizer link failures, ignition coil failure, rear defroster failure, power locks failure, and now the steering rack is making a grinding noise and causing premature wear to the front right tire. I believe there is a TSB on the steering rack. This should be a recall I won't ever by a gm again.

I noticed issues starting shortly after we bought the vehicle in 08 with the door locks erratically locking and unlocking themselves. My husband fixed the issue by disconnecting the electric locks. Then in January of 2011 the car completely stalled while turning. We started it up and got it home. We went through all kinds of things figuring out what was wrong. We changed the catalytic converter, spark plugs, and manifold gasket. It was running fine for a while but still at idle it felt like it was going to stall. Then one day it wouldn't start at all and the key got stuck in the ignition. We jumped the vehicle and the key came out. Then we got the codes read at auto zone and found we needed a ignition coil. So we replaced that. Ran good but the stalling feeling at idle was still present. Then the key got stuck in the ignition again and the shifter button was pushed in and the shifter would move without using the brake. I found people have had all these issues online and found the release switch. I used this switch and the shifter is back to normal. We have a limited income and we cant afford all of these issues, but it seems that they are all very common with these cars.

The contact stated while driving at various speeds the engine shut off four times suddenly without warning. After sitting a short while, the vehicle restarted every time. The check engine light did not illuminate in the vehicle prior to each incident. The manufacturer alerted the dealership the problem was with the ignition coil. The dealership replaced the ignition coil and corrected the problem. Updated 9/20/2006 -.
