2 recalls across 6 model years
The Chevrolet Cobalt has 2 recalls, with the most widespread being an electric power steering defect on 2005-2010 models where the power assist can cut out without warning, requiring significantly more steering effort at low speeds and raising the risk of a crash.
On 2010 models only, a misrouted wiring harness in the driver-side front door can cause an electrical short that disables the driver-side roof-rail curtain airbag, leaving it unable to deploy in a side-impact crash.
