NHTSA complaint: 2006 CHEVROLET COBALT — ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
THIS VEHICLE IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE AND WAS NOT BUILT RIGHT. THE MANUFACTURES KNEW FOR MANY YEARS THAT THE CHEVY COBALT 2006 WOULD HAVE A LEAKING GASOLINE SYSTEM, AND THEY KEPT THIS FAULTY DEFECT TO THEMSELVES FOR MANY YEARS BEFORE BRING THIS ISSUE TO THE CUSTOMER. I WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE LEAKING GAS FOR A FEW YEARS UNIT THE CRACK WAS LARGE ENOUGH FOR ME TO SMELL IT, WHILE NOT DRIVING, THE IGNITION SWITCH; WITH THE KEY IN IT WHILE THE CAR WAS IN PARK HAS STARTED THE CAR ENGINE WITHOUT TURNING THE KEY. THE KEY WONT COME OUT OF THE IGNITION SWITCH. THE CAR HAS TURNED OFF ON ME ON THE FREEWAY MORE THAN 9 TIMES. THE CAR TURNED OFF ON ME GOING IN REVERSE, COULDN'T CONTROL THE BRAKE AND STEERING POWER TO MOVE OUT OF THE POLE . WHILE DRIVING IN THE FREEWAY I HAVE HAD TO QUICKLY REACT; PUTTING MY EMERGENCY LIGHTS ON AND PRAYING TO GOD A CAR DOESN'T HIT ME, WHILE WITH THE LEFT HAD SIDE IS QUICKLY WAVING AT THE VEHICLES COMING FROM BEHIND TO STOP. PLEASE HELP ME. I HAVE TWO CHILDREN AND IM TIRED OF BEING EXPOSED TO THE DANGERS OF THIS M DEFECTED LIFE THREATENING VEHICLE.
