STRONG GAS SMELL. THERE ARE RECALLS ON FUEL PUMP AND PARTS IN OTHER STATES BUT NOT IN. THIS SHOULD BE ON ALL COBALTS THAT HAVE THIS PROBLEM. INDIANA LIVES ARE IMPORTANT TOO! THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND EXPENSIVE TO FIX. I HAVE SEEN MANY COMPLAINTS DUE TO THIS ISSUE ONLINE. WHY DON'T YOU STEP UP AND FIX YOU MISTAKES GM?

I STARTED TO NOTICE A STRONG SMELL OF GAS ABOUT 2 WEEKS AGO. I THOUGHT NOTHING OF IT AND ASSUMED I HAD SPILLED GAS ON THE SIDE OF MY VEHICLE WHEN I WENT TO THE GAS STATION. BUT THEN I STARTED TO NOTICE THAT THE SMELL WOULD NOT GO AWAY. I CHECKED THE GROUND FOR LEAKS AND FOUND NOTHING. I CHECKED MY FUEL INJECTORS AND STILL NO LEAKS. THEN I STUMBLED ON NHTSA - WHERE THERE WERE COMPLAINTS OF FUEL SMELL OUTSIDE THE CAR. I THEN FOUND OUT THERE WERE RECALLS IN CERTAIN STATES - BUT NOT MINE. WHY???

POWER STEERING GOES OUT. ITS HAPPENED GOING 27 MPH AND ITS HAPPENED GOING 68 MPH. STARTED ACCRUING AROUND 68,500 MILES BUT WHEN I REACHED MY DESTINATION I TURNED IT OFF AND BACK ON AND THE POWER STEERING TURNED BACK ON. MY CAR IS A STANDARD SO IT CAN BE PUT INTO NEUTRAL AND TURNED OFF AND BACK ON QUICKLY BUT IT STILL ISN'T SAFE FOR ANYBODY TO DRIVE LIKE THIS I GOT THIS CAR FROM AN OLDER LADY AND I SEE WHY SHE SOLD IT BECAUSE OF HOW DANGEROUS THIS MATTER IS.

POWER STEERING WARNING IS SHOWING DURING USUAL OPERATION SMALL RESISTANCE WITH TURNING OF WHEEL NOT NOTICEABLE IF UNAWARE OF CAR CAPABILITIES.

I NOTICED A VERY BAD FUEL LEAK FROM UNDER MY VEHICLE BACK IN THE BEGINNING OF MAY 2015. I KEPT MY VEHICLE PARKED UNTIL I COULD GET THE PROBLEM FIXED. THE MIDDLE OF MAY I JACKED UP MY VEHICLE TO SEE WHERE THE LEAK WAS, I NOTICED IT WAS COMING FROM TWO OF MY FUEL LINES THAT RUN THE LENGTH OF MY VEHICLE, THE LEAK WAS IN THE SAME SPOT ON BOTH LINES, IN A BENT PART OF THE LINES HELD UP BY A CLIP. I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO A MECHANIC SHOP ON JULY 23 TO GET A PRICE AND TO GET IT FIXED. I DIDN'T HAVE AS MUCH AS IT COST TO GET FIXED. BUT THE OWNER OF THE SHOP DIDN'T WANT ME TO DRIVE OFF IN MY VEHICLE, HE SAID THE IT WAS WAY TO DANGEROUS AND COULD CATCH FIRE. THE REASON FOR MY COMPLAINT, I CALLED THE GM DEALERSHIP TO GET A PRICE ON THE FUEL LINES. THE GUY I SPOKE WITH TOLD ME THIS WASN'T A NEW PROBLEM, HE SAID SEVERAL PEOPLE HAS BEEN THERE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. I ASKED TO CHECK FOR ANY RECALLS, HE SAID THERE WASN'T YET. LIKE THERE WAS GOING TO BE. HE TOLD ME NOT TO DRIVE MY VEHICLE BECAUSE IT WAS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS UNTIL IT WAS FIXED.

MY VEHICLE SUDDENLY AND COMPLETELY TURNED OFF BY ITSELF, WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON A VERY BUSY, DANGEROUS HIGHWAY. NOTE- I ALREADY HAD THE IGNITION SWITCH REPAIRED UNDER THE RECALL, AND I HAVE NOTHING ON MY KEY RING!!! I CONTACTED THE GM CUSTOMER SERVICE NUMBER (1-800-222-1020) AND IT FELT LIKE NO ONE IS TAKING THIS COMPLAINT VERY SERIOUSLY. THEY PUT ME IN CONTACT WITH THE DEALER THAT DID THE RECALL REPAIR, AND I NOW HAVE AN APPOINTMENT SCHEDULED IN 12 DAYS, WHICH I HAVE TO PAY FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING AT $104/HOUR!!! WHAT'S HAPPENING TO MY CAR NOW IS THE SAME THING THAT WAS HAPPENING TO INITIATE THIS RECALL (AND LAWSUITS) IN THE FIRST PLACE. HOW CAN THEY BE SO NONCHALANT ABOUT THIS COMPLAINT, AND FURTHERMORE, MAKE ME PAY FOR IT? CLEARLY THERE IS A DIFFERENT PROBLEM THAN WHAT GM IS CLAIMING, AS I'VE SEARCHED ONLINE AND HAVE FOUND OTHERS STILL HAVING THE SAME DANGEROUS PROBLEM OF THEIR CAR COMPLETELY TURNING OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING, SINCE THEY TOO HAVE HAD THE REPAIRS!!! *TR
