2005 Chevrolet Cobalt review from North America
"I HATE this car. I am very upset that I have to drive it for another 3 years"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The battery was loosely plugged in. This caused my car to not start.
The key gets stuck in the ignition, the car cannot get turned off properly, and the key won't come out. You have to play around with the shifter and the brakes for it to work.
The driver's door wouldn't open or close from the inside or out.
There is no signal on the dashboard to let me know when I am out of windshield washer liquid.
The paint inside the car, on the panel chips off and gets scratched off very easily.
General comments?
I have only had this car for 10 months, it is ridiculous that all these problems occur, especially since I am very careful with my car. The dealership wouldn't fix the problem with the ignition because they didn't know what was wrong.
I will NEVER again buy a Chevrolet.
