if you cant operate a car with a manual rack your weak ass should not be driving. at least once a week i get sent to look at cars that have "stuck" e-brakes. :rolleyes:

Especially on a small ass car like a cobalt!

Now if you're driving a Mac truck at slow speeds and have issues, I'll cut you a little slack. As long as you are a 13 y/o girl :lol:

Umm...I skimmed through the article but did it mention that the electric steering in the Cobalt is from the same manufacturer as the Corrolla?

Same hardware...

So does lifting weights. :lol


This has been going on (or at least I've heard about it) for years now. However, over 35mph even w/o steering assist, you can still steer the vehicle.

People are looking for a free lunch, but GM should pony and fix the issue.

The steering wheel size is offset for vehicles w/o power steering.

I agree with most of you that it's a pretty poor excuse for an accident and I agree that GM should go ahead and fix the problem.
