general problems of the 2009 Chevrolet HHR

Instrument panel light flicker constantly, does this in park and during driving, noticed lately that the head lights are also dimming at start up.

The front end of my vehicle is ticking. It sounds like the timing chain. . . . I purchased the car from johnny londoff my powertrain warranty expirex 7/27/14 londoff is charging me 135. 00 an hour for the diagnosis this is not fair. May iplease receive some arbitration and not pay this charge second subject: johnny londoff charged me $200. 00 for replacing my steering column. They refused to refund me. Since this a recalled item I should had never been charged please refund me my money.

Headlamps on my 2009 Chevrolet Hhr burn out prematurely, very rapidly. I am now replacing the third headlamp for both the driver and passenger side. I average roughly 10,000-12,000 before I need to replace bulbs. My driver side lamp was out, and tonight while driving the passenger side lamp went out. Headlamp bulbs, especially because of how costly they are, should not be burning out every 10-12,000 miles.

7/10 - center console lights inop. Dealer replaced internally shorted relay. Warranty 11/10 - engine would not crank/service airbag & power steering msg on dic. Dealer towed in, replaced starter and found loss of comm w/ bcm due to internal short. Dealer replaced bcm. Warranty 12/10 - engine turns over wont start. Dealer towed in, found power train relay open. Replaced relay. Warranty 4/11 - service airbag light. Dealer found open circuit at passenger front airbag. Reconnector connector added dielectrical grease. Stabilitrack light does not come on (ever). Was told system is okay, some models don't have warning lights. (go figure, will not return to that dealer) warranty 2/12 - service airbag light. Comes on and goes out 3 - 4 times during first 15 minutes of driving first trip of the day. Happens 90% of the time. If I can find a dealer I can trust I will have them check this and the stabilitrack problem. Mileage is now 63,000.
