Most common problems:

Brake fluid leaks

Hydraulic brake systems can develop leaks in the brake lines, master cylinder, or wheel cylinders, which can lead to a loss of braking power.

Brake pedal sponginess

Air in the hydraulic brake lines can cause the brake pedal to feel spongy and reduce braking efficiency.

Worn brake pads/rotors

Common wear items in any braking system, worn brake pads and rotors can lead to reduced braking performance and increased stopping distances.

Abs sensor failure

The Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) sensors can fail, causing the ABS light to illuminate and reducing the effectiveness of the ABS system.

Overheating

The 4-cylinder engine in the 2009 Chevrolet HHR can experience overheating issues due to a faulty thermostat, water pump, or radiator.

Timing chain issues

The 4-cylinder engine may have issues with the timing chain, such as stretching or failure, which can lead to engine misfires or severe engine damage.

Ignition coil problems

The engine may suffer from ignition coil failures, leading to misfires, rough idling, and poor fuel economy.

Intake manifold leaks

Vacuum leaks at the intake manifold can cause rough idling, poor acceleration, and decreased fuel efficiency.

Faulty fuel pump

Fuel pump failures can lead to engine stalling, hard starting, and loss of power while driving.

Transmission problems

Issues with the automatic transmission, such as slipping or harsh shifting, can be common in the 2009 Chevrolet HHR.
