BRAKE LINES ARE CORRODED WAY TOO EARLY. BEGAN LEAKING. I'M TRYING TO REPLACE THEM MYSELF, BECAUSE I DON'T HAVE 1500-2000 DOLLARS FOR PARTS AND LABOR. LUCKILY THE BRAKES PEDALS WENT TO THE FLOOR IN THE DRIVEWAY WHEN I FOUND THE LEAKS. *TR

THE IGNITION SWITCH LOCKED AND WOULD NOT OPERATE. FIRST THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE IGNITION TURNING ON AND SHUTTING OFF. THEN AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED, THE IGNITION WOULD NOT SWITCH ON. JUST LIKE THE INFORMATION DISSEMINATED ABOUT THE CHEVY COBALT, BUT A YEAR BEFORE THE ANNOUNCED RECALL. I CONTACTED GM BUT THEY INDICATED THAT MY MAKE, MODEL AND YEAR WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL. HOWEVER, I HAD TO INSTALL A IGNITION CYLINDER AND KEY KIT ACCORDING TO MY REPAIR INVOICE. I BELIEVE THAT SHOULD A TOTAL REVIEW OF GM VEHICLES OF THE IGNITION PART AS A DEFECTIVE PRODUCT. *TR
