Well readers, where to start? I suppose the letter should do. I got a letter from Chevy saying my 09' Cobalt has an ignition issue where it can grab the key, prevent you from turning off the car, so on. Fun right? OK so my car hasn't done it, but I have noticed it a few times when I have turned off the car. The key ignition seemed grabby to me; my words.
So the letter tells me that they will refund you if this issue has been fixed and you were charged, we will fix it for free, blah blah blah. So I call Chevy. FYI Chevy to me has TERRIBLE customer service, as I have written about before. I don't even let them service my car anymore, plus it's expensive for them to do it. So I call and they inform me it isn't a recall, its for safety measures, if the car isn't doing it wait until 2014 (the letter is good until 2014). So I get a little forceful and tell them, "Well the last recall on this car you guys told me I wasn't effected and I was. I'm not taking chances". They CLEARLY don't want to be bothered and fix the car. As you know I am big on safety in cars, I am not taking chances.
I have an appointment tomorrow to get the car fixed. I just thought I would share the news and story. If you have a cobalt or know someone who does, and they did not get the letter, tell them.
I also find it interesting how much age accounts for things. Because I am young (21 years old now) they don't take me as seriously, they think they can get away with stuff, so on. It's annoying and an inconvenience.
Safe driving
