1. cruise control engages on it's own and lunges forward, even in traffic at 10 mph speed. 2. seat belt on drivers seat, while stationary,doesn't release easily and takes about 30-45 seconds at times to release. 3.while on the road driving, the car displayed all the information on the dash, such as; tire pressure, oil life, mileage, etc., then the car's speed reduces and it flashes words "power steering" and then the car died in traffic and i was almost hit from behind before i could get the car off the road. i had to call a tow truck and be taken to chevy dealer and they found nothing wrong. this has happened again today, 5/29/2016 and i had to leave my car in store parking lot for four hours and then it started, drove 5 miles home and went out again right before i pulled into driveway. 4. while driving on the freeway, i engaged the brakes and they barely stopped me and brakes pads are good on car.

Electronic devices engaging passenger airbag and seatbelt notification. when i put an ac adaptor (lightweight), or most electronic devices, sometimes even just my ipod, on my passenger seat it thinks a person is sitting there. if i were to crash this would be a big problem airbags are expensive, plus the car is always beeping at me. i went to the dealership while my car was under warranty and they said, well you just cannot put it there. there is nothing we can for you, i even asked if they could at least put a center console in. (answer: no) i am reporting this as property damage because they won't fix my car which is obviously not functioning correctly, then let me drive off with an unsafe car. so be careful with putting your electronics on your passenger seat it could mean totaling your car, airbags are expensive. also my cobalt does not have a center console so there is no where else to put my electronics, which to me seems like a bought a damaged vehicle. i cannot use the functions it is supposed to have, like the aux input, because i have nowhere to put the mp3 player without activating the passenger seat alarm/airbag. be careful and help me complain. this is very shady, also right after i got my car they (the chevy dealership) acknowledged my cobalt was part of the affected "unintended acceleration" cars, now there is nothing about it anywhere. they said they would call me when they had a fix for it, and yet i was never contacted and i just got contacted about my power steering recall with no mention of the other problem they had previously acknowledged, affected my car. i don't think there is coincidence recalls are controlled by the same people that control gm, the government. it took gm 5 years to start fixing this power steering problem, think twice before buying general motors, you are really buying government motors, and your protected by their wonderful recall coverup program. *tr
