I have worked for Tier 1 suppliers for the past 10 years, and I have personally worked on new products from all of the American OEMs, and they all have issues. You cant even say "well buy a Toyota or a Mercedes" because both of those companies have had several major recalls over the years. Look at a recent JD Power survey and you will see
Ok heres the thing, ya 4 yrs, I noticed something b4 but only after I had some front bumper and the passneger side repainted after a **** up I did driving did I notice some clips missing from my front inner fender wheel well.. Anyways that was dealt with regardless..
The clips I speak of are/were missing in the rear wheel wells but how the
do exactly 4 of these clips in the exact same spots just fall off? Second its been winter, ya maybe they froze off
Not a hells bitch slap chance!! I have never lost any other of these clips on any part of my car due to anything other then some ******* body shop, by the way they never touched the inner wheel well, only the leading edges!
Ok maybe something happend along the line but give me a break.. I love my car and the Cobalt as well amen!! Those clips by the way cost 31cents each by the way, and ya they do handle **** very well!! .. When you buy a car it better come damn well assembled by all specifications! What if it was a clip that did/had something to do with the breaks and you or gf or kids are riding in it?
The inner fender is held on by a number of these clips by the way but regardless the things were missing, they also do not hold the fender wall up as they just hold it a little more securely, if it was rubbing, which I did not say it was I would have gone back to my stealership and had it dealt with! I just thought it was normal the way it flexed the rear fender like that, hey after all its a domestic JK!!
So there you go, what you think is what you think. I'm just telling you all the facts, just the facts maam..
SORRY NO PICS, damn camera sucks poo

I have heard stories from people that worked at the assembly plant in Lordstown.
Just after the thrid shift was told they would be laid off, I have heard of reports that the workers on the assembly line did not put all the necessary parts on the cars as they went down the line, their way of getting back at GM for cutting their jobs because they wern't selling the cars.
I would not be supprised if many new cars start showing up with similar problems...

You have received an infraction from cobaltss.net for starting flame wars.

When I bought my cobalt last year the whole freakin' fenderwell was missing on the passenger side. The car lot I bought it off of replaced it. This spring I noticed some of the bolts & clips missing, went to my local chevy dealership, surely they would have these items - the Service Manager looked at me like I had a horn growing out of my head for even bringing it up. He was clueless NEVER going back to those idiots.
