I have a Chevy Cobalt 2005, it is an automatic
Recently, I have noticed that sometimes it will shift gears very abuptly, causing the car to leap forward during acceleration.

What could be causing this, could i have prevented it, and would it be covered by a standard powertrain warranty.

Sorry, I do not have too much details to give, but I don't have alot of car knowledge.

I have done all the required maintenance and oil changes, and at the last one I asked the mechanice. and he couldn't give me an answer!!

Thanks for your help!!

First, all those looking for points save us the stupid replies, put in a letter, and get your points. Now, last night I was asleep but started to slowly wake up in stages. But I heard and felt like a small dog jumped up onto my bed. I even heard the bed squeak and felt like it was moving as if a small dog were walking on it. I just started staying in this place a few months ago and was still kind of out of it, so I thought it was one of the small dogs from my house. But then I realized that I wasn't at that house, and so I turned to see what it was but obviously nothing was there. I then turned back over and shut my eyes to go back to sleep when the bed started shaking a little, enough to where I could feel it and see the comforter wiggling. I held still to make sure it wasn't me somehow, and I realized it wasn't. Don't get me wrong, it wasn't shaking bigtime or anything..just a small shake - but it was very late and nobody was up.If you have any ideas, please let me know.Worry or no?

A new guy in town walks and reads a sign that hangs over the bar: Free beer for the person who can pass our test!
So the guy asks the bartender what the test is.
The bartender replies: " Well first you have to drink that whole gallon of pepper tequila, the whole thing at once and you can't make a face while doing it. Second, a 'gator out back with a sore tooth - you have to remove it with your bare hands. Third, there is a woman upstairs who's never made love to a man. You gotta make things right for her"
The guy says:"Well, much as I would love free beer, I won't do it. You have to be nuts to drink a gallon of pepper tequila and then get crazier from there."
Well as time goes on and the man drinks a few , he asks " Wherez zat teeqeelah?"
He grabs the gallon of tequila with both hands, downs it with a big slurp and tears streaming down his face.
Next, he staggers out back and soon all the people inside hear the most frightening roaring and thumping, then silence.

Is it me or are the Astros playing as bad as the Nationals and the Orioles, etc are?? Their record certainly supports that thought, since they have consistently been in the bottom of the NL all year.... Does anyone think they are actually as bad as such "bad teams" like the Nats?

I believe Nascar should be placing fines on the drivers of these cars that don't pass inspection.Outside of nascar the driver of any vehicle weather it is yours or not is responsible for the car.You accept the condition before you drive it and pay the price if something goes wrong.These drivers know if the car is not right so start handing down fines to them and see how fast the cheating stops.

My younger sister now goes to the same school I used to.

She, also, is having trouble with a teacher I had trouble with when I was at school.

This particular male teacher is a complete bully, and several times I was physically and verbally abused by him throughout my time at that school. By physically, In mean he had grabbed me roughly, and once grabbed my hand which was wrapped an a bandage after I got burnt. It makes me so angry looking back, that he was able to get away with that behaviour, it wasn't just me, it was many students who suffered this kind of treatment, often shouting at pupils telling them they were morons etc.

Now my sister is getting the same treatment, but the school are siding with the teacher. She is very shy and can't stick up for herself very well.

What can be done??? Is there a council or an organisation who can help? Please help.

This is called Racial profiling and it is what the left does best. Gestapo tactics. You on the left why are you not outraged and in the drive by media why are you not correcting your spin. We on the right know why!
