We purchased a 2010 Chevy Cobalt in 20016 unaware of any recalls regarding this vehicle, our power stering went out, on 05/25/2010 GM stated that this was a reaquiring problem and that they would cover the cost of repairs, now after talking to the dealer who sold us this lemon both GM and the dealer refuses to fix any and all recall issues, this vehicles power stering attempted to locked up while driving on the interstate.
We had our battery replaced in our vehicle November 15, 2016. Since that time our "service passenger airbag" light has come one. We took it to our mechanic on 3/3/2017 and he reported that we needed a new module that would correct the service passenger airbag light. We drove our car home and before we even got home the service light had returned. We took it back the next business day and they checked it again and said we needed a new sensor for the passenger seat. Since that time we have not taken it back as we are wondering if that will just require another electronic fix. Does this effect the seat belt working correctly? if so, I think this is a very dangerous situation.

I noticed that there was no turn signal sound indicating the turn signal was in use. At the same time I also noticed that all of the warning indicator sounds were also not working (set belt, door open with key in, low tire pressure, ect) none of the warning sounds are now working. It seems that the left front speaker is used for the transmitting of the warning sounds thus there is no sound from the left speaker. None the less I feel that with the warning sounds not working this is a safety issue. Everytime I start my car the svc light stays on all the time, my tires are always wobbly while slowing down and driving. Same as I have heard from others. Got in a hit and run if I have side air bags they didnt geploy
