WE have had a 2009 Chevy Cobalt for 9 years and it has 225000 miles on it. The only Major thing we have had to do is replace the strut assembly. All we did was to change the oil regularly as well as checking the fluid levels. I is a manual transmission that make is much more peppy than the auto trans. It gets 29-34 mpg. It has a little noise that you can hear when moving, but has only recently (within the last 20000 miles). I cold do nothing but give this a 5 on dependability. People not to purchase this car because it had a bad reputation. I am so glad we chose this one. BTW it still has the original clutch, which is awesome.

I bought my Cobalt new and have put 56,000 miles on it. I love it! I'm religious about servicing it and have had zero mechanical problems. I get 40 mpg highway easily. For a relatively inexpensive car it handles great and has decent power. I live where it gets cold as hell in the winter and it starts every morning, and it does alright on the snow and ice. There is pretty limited storage space, and the blindspots are pretty significant. Everything seems pretty solid still. Of course there are little rattles here and there, but nothing crazy. Everything has stayed pretty tight and sealed up. The ride on the highway is smooth and fairly quiet. Overall, I think this is an awesome car!

I have a 2009 Chevy Cobalt. And I jus wanted to tell everyone how reliable this car has been. Most only write reviews to tell bad things. And I wanted to give all the good. I was the second owner. I bought the car with considerably high miles for how old it was. All maintenance kept up. And I continued with the same love. Scheduled oil changes with new tires twice since I bought it 7 yrs ago! The car recently hit 300,000 miles. I've only had a rusted transmission bolt and brake line. In all the years I've owned it.. This beauty of a car has took me to and from Wisconsin to North Carolina over and over loaded to the tippy top! Now has commuted my older two kids back and forth to college a few hours away for 3 yrs! I'd buy three more of these cars!! I am grateful to have gotten such a good car. Im a single mom for 10yrs. And this car being reliable has made my bad days, better. Thank you Chevrolet for this build 🙏

I got this car to replace my 02 VW Passat because it was starting to cost me anywhere from $1000 to $2000 every other month in repairs. The Cobalt reminds me of a cross between Toyota Corolla and a Toyota Yaris without the dorky exterior of a Yaris. It drives fairly well and has zero blind spots.
