Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“The driver's seat (back) of my 2007 Chevrolet Cobalt collapsed into the back seat when my car was hit in the rear end in a relatively minor wreck. It also 'clicks' back (while the car is moving) after the seat has been moved to allow entry into the back seat.”

“Re: 2007 Chevrolet Cobalt 2 door sdn there has never been any incident concerning this vehicle. Left front drivers seat, when released, slams forward with great force. The headrest locks against the steering wheel and will continuous sound the horn. This condition is extremely dangerous and can cause a severe injury to a child--toddler or baby--including a fatality. That is my opinion. It's a dangerous condition and I would not sell this car to a young mom.”
