I BOUGHT A 2005 CHEVY COBALT BRAND NEW IN 2005.  AFTER DRIVING 40,000 MILES I WOULD GET A POWER STEERING FAILURE.  WHEN I FIRST TURN THE CAR ON I HAVE POWER STEERING, BUT AFTER A RANDOM MOMENT OF TIME IT CUTS OUT AND THE LIGHT ON THE DASH COMES ON.  IT WILL GO OUT IN MID TURN OR WHILE GOING STRAIGHT & BOTH FORWARD AND IN REVERSE.   MOST REPORTS I CAN FIND ABOUT THE PROBLEM SAY IT WILL COST ABOUT $2000 TO FIX AND THE PROBLEM RECURS.  THE ONLY WAY TO GET A PART TO FIX IT IS TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND SOME DEALERSHIPS ARE SAYING ITS THE STEERING COLUMN WHILE OTHERS SAY ITS A MOTOR.  I THINK ITS A SCAM FROM GM TO MAKE A PART THAT GOES OUT AND CHARGE AN ARM AND A LEG TO FIX.      THE FAILURE HAPPENS DAILY NOW.  ITS DIFFICULT TO TURN THE STEERING WHEEL. IT IS UNSAFE TO TURN INTO BUSY TRAFFIC IN THE CITY AND DRIVING AROUND MOUNTAINS.  IT WAS THE CHEAPEST NEW CAR I COULD FIND AT THE TIME BECAUSE I'M POOR, SO FORKING OVER $2000.00 FOR A PART THAT WILL GO OUT AGAIN IN ANOTHER 40,000 MILES IS NEVER GOING TO HAPPEN.       EVEN THOUGH THERE IS A LIGHT ON THE DASH TO INDICATE A POWER STEERING FAILURE,  IT DOES NOT SHOW UP ON DIAGNOSTICS.  IT IS AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE AND NOT MECHANICAL, SO ITS NOT UNDER WARRANTY.     I HAVE NOT YET BEEN IN A CRASH,  BUT I HAVE COME CLOSE MANY TIMES.  MANY OWNERS I HAVE SPOKE WITH HAVE THIS PROBLEM, AND HAVE CRASHED OR COME CLOSE TO CRASHING ON MANY OCCASIONS. *TR","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2005","productMake":"CHEVROLET","productModel":"COBALT","manufacturer":"General Motors, LLC"}]}]}
