I have noticed some small clicking noises from the rearend of my car, and now that I'm living in canada, I'm required to have my vehicle safety tested, so I took my vehicle in for this safety inspection and it failed due to a cracked rear coil spring. I was quite surprised by this and after talking with the shop owner it is apparent that this is a very common problem with Chevrolet Cobalts. This makes the car unsafe to drive on the roads in canada let alone anywhere else, and after hearing this report and reading forums on the internet about this issue, I wanted to bring this to your attention as this is a problem that Chevrolet needs to fix. Please look into this matter and make Chevrolet make this a recall since is not that big of a job, but is a definite safety issue.
