The Chevrolet Cobalt has been put under federal investigation due to a large number of steering complaints, according to multiple reports. The investigation covers model year 2005-09 Cobalts and 2008-09 SS models, possibly afflicting 905,000 vehicles.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says it has received 1132 complaints about the Cobalt, concerning "difficulty controlling the vehicle, such as departing from the desired travel lane." Most of the complaints were made in the last six months.
The Department of Transportation reports eleven crashes and one injury relating to the complaints, but no fatalities.
"We are cooperating with the agency in the investigation," General Motors spokesman Alan Adler told Automotive News.

One of my dad's favorite car brands is Chevrolet and it's sad to hear this. I hope they resolve this soon to prevent continuous accidents. Anyway, check out my favorite auto detailing products wholesale website if you got time. Cheers!
