Brought 2007 cobalt on 7/09/14. Reported the problem of the vehicle shutting- off on me and no inspection sticker was on the car 7/10/14. They wrote a work order out. Brought the vehicle to archer auto to get work performed and for a inspection sticker. Archer auto kept my 2007 cobalt for 3 months. Until I called bbb business and filed a complaint. Archer auto said they fix my vehicle but didn't. Archer auto put a illegal inspection sticker on it to pass the emission test. Archer auto returned my vehicle.
2007 chevy cobalt lt, bought new! Had a bushing wear away and was told I cannot just replace the bushing on this car so I had to replace the entire system. Also replaced front lower control arms, did all of this in march 2010. It is now jan 2011 and I need to replace everything again!! It hasn't even been a year. This has cost me well over $1000. Extremely hard to control the car, it wonders where ever it wants and also very easy to over correct. We need a recall!!!
