2010 Chevrolet Hhr Owner Complaints

Steering complaints dominate the 2010 Chevrolet HHR, making up the largest share of what owners report. The most common pattern by far involves the electric power steering cutting out unexpectedly, owners describe the steering going heavy or unresponsive while driving, often accompanied by a warning light. Many report that switching the car off and restarting temporarily restores steering, but the failure returns shortly after. Electrical system complaints come in second, with owners noting intermittent warning lights, door lock failures, and a rear door latch issue where the door reportedly opens or fails to stay latched while the vehicle is moving. Fuel system complaints round out the top three, with multiple owners reporting corroded or rusted fuel lines that leak, often noticed by smell rather than any dashboard warning.
