2006 Cobalt all of the sudden I lost power steering, cruise control, power windows, windshield wipers. The a air bag light came on and the middle of the display on the dashboard (I.e. where the check in light and seat belt light is) is out. The car has driven fine until I started this morning. Now my driver's side window is stuck down and it's barley drivable. I went to a Chevy dealership and they say all recalls on the car were fixed in 2014, oddly enough including the ignition, power steering, and air bag ... I asked why it was all broken again. No clear answer. Can someone please help me

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

all of the sudden I started my car this morning and I
had lost power steering, cruise control, power
windows, windshield wipers. The service air bag light
came on and the middle of the display on the
dashboard (I.e. where the check engine light and
seat belt light is) is out. The car has driven fine until I
started this morning. Now my driver's side window is
stuck down and it's barley drivable. I went to a Chevy
dealership and they say all recalls on the car were
fixed in 2014, oddly enough including the ignition,
power steering, and air bag ... I asked why it was all
broken again. No clear answer. Can someone please
help me. Please feel free to ask questions if you
think I was unclear. Thank you

Go to this sight .. it may help you get some of your problems fixed ,,, have the service manager put in Writing exactly what repairs your car needs .. then have him write what repairs are not under warranty ..then make him sign it. It will become their liability should a serious event occur (I pray it doesn't) .. Go to his site on Facebook, if he has one and complain .. if he left you with an unsafe car then you need to get it fixed for your own safety .. but get his estimate first. Your state should have a dept. to assist you. If you get it repaired and can prove the dealer was liable ... go to small claims court.... Good luck and God Bless
