Anyone out there having issues with the cloth seats getting dirty very easily and impossible to clean up? I have a grey interior and it is getting nasty - I have tried the GM recommended cleaner with poor results

| I bought my Chevy HHR in January and it has 6,000 miles on it. When exiting on a freeway ramp, the car suddenly shot to the right, went up on the curb then down, and came to a stop. Inspection showed that the right front lower control arm had snapped off. The tires are still inflated and there is no body damage, except from not having the running boards like some people have mentioned. GM says there is no defect so I have to pay for the damage. The dealer will do nothing. I have a problem with paying a $500 deductible and having this go against my insurance when it is not my fault. Someone else posted a message about noise when steering - I have that too. What else can I do? | |

I bought a 2006 HHR 2LT last May. When there is a heavy rain, the front floorboards get a significant amount of water in them. It always seems to happen when the car is parked - flat ground or hill doesn't seem to matter. I've seen several other posts by people having the same issue, but haven't seen one yet where someone got their problem resolved. The dealer tried the A/C repair the first time I took it in. The second time, they found a hole in a front cowling that they covered. It rained all day today and when I went to my car after work there was water standing in the driver's side floor. The carpet was soaked and there was at least 1/2 inch of water on top of the carpets and floor mats. I took it straight to the dealer and they are keeping it to show to the "leak expert". They've given me a loaner HHR to use until they fix the problem. The loaner is bottom of the line with no XM, sunroof, or heated seats. I'm really frustrated. I want my car, without a pond in the floor! Can anyone comment with possible fixes to this issue that I could suggest to my dealer?

Replying to: msmel50 (Sep 13, 2006 5:40 pm) I have my car back and now I'm waiting on the next rainstorm. I think it will end up back in repair before that as the gas mileage has dropped significantly since the dealer "fixed" the leaks. I think they disconnected soemthing and forgot to put it back, or else the plugging up of the leaks under the hood restricted air flow to my engine and it isn't running properly now. I am also going to insist they replace the carpet due to discoloration. Good luck with your car!!

I bought my HHR in Dec 05. Yesterday my gear shift went out. I couldn't remove the key from the ignition and had to use the safty under the steering column to remove it. I can drive it but the gear shift does not engage in park and slides up and down. The lever that you press while stepping on the brake is not functioning. Anyone have this problem??? Thanks in advance Lucy
