“Our '07 chevy Cobalt's left rear tire outboard sidewall just separated just below the edge of tread all the way around the tire. Luckily was just accelerating up an on-ramp to highway speed when it blew. No tread or other sidewall damage lead to this (I.e. Punctures/debree in tire) - car has under 1,000 miles.”

“I purchased a 2007 Chevrolet Cobalt in 2006 , they sold me the vehicle that they used for test driving, which I told them was out of line and they still made me purchase it.

A month later, the steering wheel would not turn, the service department told me I had to pay $1200.00 to get it fixed until I notified the district manager and he made them fix it.then the security air bag light stayed on and it would not pass inspection and they tried to make me pay for that. …”

“On november 13th I felt something wrong when driving home. I stopped at sam's club and asked them to check the tire pressure. They stated it was at 40-42. The attendant let the air out to 29. He said the tires looked ok and suggested have the alignment checking. While on the freeway home, the tread separated from the tire. I thought I had hit something, pulled over and kicked each tire for damage (it was dark). There was air in all tires so I decided to go the last 5 miles home. Immediately driving a few feet I realized something was wrong. …”
