2005 Chevrolet Cobalt review from North America

The radio won't take a CD half the time, and the buttons are chipping on the radio.

The car is leaking coolant at an alarming rate.

It chugs every time I start it.

When I first got the car, I loved it. It doesn't have the horrible GM power windows, and it was good enough on gas mileage.

Now, I wish I never bought it. My car overheated, when it was 25 degrees outside. I took it home to see what was wrong with it, and the car was out of coolant!?! In the owners manual, it says "the coolant in your cobalt should last you 150,000 miles, or 5 years" well that's a huge lie, because the car has 4500 miles, and I've only owned it for 3 months!!

The interior of the car is cheaply made. The radio buttons are chipping, and the fabric on my passengers side door is peeling.

Also, my radio, won't take a CD half the time, and every once in a while, the radio "on/off" button won't work, and when I open the door it won't go off either. So I have to wait for it to go off on its own after the normal 10 minutes!

All in all, I don't see myself ever buying another GM product!
