2005 Chevrolet Cobalt structure problems

“TAKATA RECALL. I HIT A PATCH OF ICE GOING TO A FRIENDS HOUSE. I DID A THREE SIXTY HITTING A GUARDRAIL ALL THE WAY AROUND. MY AIR BAGS DIDN'T GO OFF. THEY SHOULD OF WITH HOW HARD I HIT. TOTALED OUT MY CAR. I WAS TRAVELING DOWN I-75 IN OHIO”

“WHEN DRIVING REAR AND FRONT DOORS OPEN WHEN HITTING A BUMPL THEY JUST FLY OPEN WON'T STAY LOCKED OR CLOSED. WHEN CLOSING THEM SOMETIMES NOT ABLE TO REOPEN THEM. THE DOOR MECHANISMS ARE FAULTLY AND DON'T WORK. REAL SAFETY ISSUE SHOULD BE ON RECALL LIST AS MANY PEOPLE ON-LINE HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM.”

“TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 CHEVROLET COBALT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE'S DOORS CONSTANTLY LOCKED INDEPENDENTLY. THE CONTACT HAD TO CRAWL IN AND OUT OF THE VEHICLE THROUGH THE WINDOW. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, THE VEHICLE LOST POWER AND THE POWER STEERING AND CHECK ENGINE INDICATORS ILLUMINATED AND REMAINED LIT. THE VEHICLE WAS PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND POWERED OFF. THE VEHICLE WAS LATER RESTARTED AND DRIVEN TO THE CONTACT'S RESIDENCE. THE CONTACT CALLED HARRY GREEN CHEVROLET AT 304-624-6304 (1858 E PIKE ST, CLARKSBURG, WV 26301) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS FOR THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER INFORMED THE CONTACT ABOUT NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 07V014000 (STRUCTURE). THE CONTACT HAD NOT RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 80,000.”

“MY PASSENGER DOOR RANDOMLY DOES NOT OPEN ANYMORE FROM INSIDE OR OUT. IT WORKED COMPLETELY FINE BEFORE A PASSENGER GOT IN, AND WHEN THEY TRIED TO GET OUT THE HANDLE WAS "LOOSE" AND NEITHER HANDLES WILL OPEN THE DOOR. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND IT'S SCARY THAT THIS COULD POTENTIALLY HAPPEN TO BOTH DOORS. MY PASSENGER DOOR CURRENTLY DOESN'T OPEN SO IF THERE WAS AN ACCIDENT THEY WOULDN'T EVEN BE ABLE TO GET OUT.”

“TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 CHEVROLET COBALT. THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO CHANGE THE HEADLAMP BULB BECAUSE THE BULB SHIELD FELL OFF. THE CONTACT HAD NOT NOTICED THE SHIELD WAS MISSING UNTIL HE NOTICED A GLARE IN THE BULB. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WERE TWO LIGHT BULBS AFFECTED DUE TO THE REFLECTOR FAILING WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT PURCHASED A REPAIR MANUAL AND NOTICED NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 04V560000 (EXTERIOR LIGHTING). THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE CONTACT WAS CONCERNED THAT THE GLARE COULD AFFECT AN ONCOMING MOTORIST, RESULTING IN A CRASH. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT CONTACTED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 108,400.”

“THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR LATCH DOES NOT WANT TO OPEN THE DOOR FROM THE OUTSIDE. IT FEELS LIKE THERE IS NOTHING CONNECTING TO OPEN IT. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES AND I HAVE HAD TO CRAWL OVER PASSENGER SIDE TO OPEN IT FROM THE INSIDE. I UNDERSTAND THERE ARE LOTS OF PEOPLE HAVING THIS SAME ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE, SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE.”
