| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I purchased a 2006 cobalt ls level 2 used in october of 06. shortly after the purchase my car started a moderate tone whistling and my heater started making a clicking noise which both are very annoying. i have brought my car to the dealership whalen chevrolet in greenwich ny many many times and all they ever say is the noises are normal there's nothing they can do about it. shortly after those problems came about my wipers stopped working in a storm for no apparent reason,when i brought the car to the dealership for this problem they blamed it on me saying i was mis-using my wipers ,apparently your not supposed to use them. within days of that problem my car started to bump when i'd touch the brakes, once again i brought the car to the dealership and what do you know the dealership said it was my fault and the brake rotors needed to be planed down. still to this day the car is whistling the entire time it runs and the heater is clicking away like always,it is apparent to me that this is no replacement for the lack luster cavalier,it is the cavalier it's just prettied up a bit. to this point the shabby engineering of this car has cost me well over $500 in repairs & diagnosing to try and solve a problem the gm certified mechanics at whalen chevrolet in greenwich ny can't seem to figure out---oops i mean it's supposed to sound like it's falling apart. *tr |
