I brought my car (2010 chevrolet cobalt ss) to the local dealership near me in massachusetts, and i was told that my rear brakes were worn to the point just before a sensor going off. The car only has 30,000 miles on it and rear brakes are supposed to be the ones that last longer than front ones but my front are fine. The dealership refused to fix the brakes under the 3 year 36,000 [i]unlimited[/i] warranty or the 2 year 20,000 mile maintenance warranty. I have been reading many complaints about the rear brakes on websites about the rear brakes on my model car and they need to have something done about it, because if this many people are having the same problem, then its not a user problem its a part problem.
Despite low mileage on vehicle. Excessive wear on rear pads and severely scored. Front rotors also scored. This is a material failure or defect as i have never owned any other vehicle that required rotor replacement at such low mileage.
The contact owns a 2010 chevrolet cobalt. The contact stated that while driving 8 mph, the steering wheel became very difficult to maneuver. A dealer was called and advised the contact to remove the fuse and then reinsert it. The contact did as such however, the failure recurred within five minutes. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The vehicle had not been repaired. The failure and current mileage was 51,900.
While i was driving the power steering thing comes on thinking it needed fluid i stopped to check there was none and it was hard to drive i made it back home checking the internet i found that there was a recall for the car i was driving so i found this site that's why am complaining.
The steering got extremely hard and a warning came on.
