Fuel injection engines have safety circuitry built in that monitors many different
functions of the engine and drive system. In many of these engines, a malfunction
that the operator may not be aware of, can trigger a safety circuit in the engine
causing it to automatically slow down and run rough. Should such a circumstance
occur, please check with your Cobalt dealer as soon as possible.
