CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2007 Cobalt inherited most of the problems from the 2005 and 2006 model years, but toned them down (a bit). Sure, the power steering still fails and the car has a chance of going up in flames due to a cracked fuel tank, but it’s not as prevalent as the older models. At least not yet.
In 2012, the Cobalt was recalled for gas tank fires but only for owners in certain states.
Then in 2014, the 2007 Cobalt was part of a massive GM recall due to a defective ignition switch that could cause the airbags to not deploy during an accident. The problem led to 13 deaths, government investigations and multiple class-action lawsuits.

Like many Cobalt owners, had power steering motor, fuel pump, and gas tank replaced under warranty. 2 months after those repairs, car had a gasoline smell and wet spot on ground. Dealer stated that fuel lines had rusted (common problem) and would cost $750 to repair (not covered by warranty). Purchased vinyl line repair kit with new fuel filter for less than $150 and made repairs myself in an afternoon using basic mechanics tools
