Knocking, clunking noise in the steering from day of sale.
Steering doesn't come back to center when turning at times; must be pulled back.
Had in shop one service bulletin performed; did not help.
Shuddering can be felt in the steering at times.
Is to return to the shop 07/17/07.
Steering has problems.
I have reported the car to the NHTSA.
FYI on the steering noise..
I Have an 06 Cobalt.. and have had the entire steering column replaced, bushings, bearings.. it still made the noise.. It was finally fixed when they replaced the "Steering rod".
I have purchased a used 2006 Cobalt LS just recently. It's had one owner and has 36K on the car. I have already had to replace the hub bearings and it is now in the shop for a lower control arm bushing. Hopefully this doesn't happen again or I'm going to trade it for something else.
This is the same as the Pontiac Pursuit. The dealer replaced the steering column 4 times and the knocking was still there. It turns out that the control arm bushings were gone and it took a private, NON-GM, mechanic to find it.
