Expert Reply:

According to our contacts at Thule, there are two 2-bike trunk mount racks that will fit your 2009 Chevy Cobalt 4 Door. They are the Thule Passage # TH910XT you referenced and the Thule OutWay. As long as the wing on the trunk is a factory item, according to Thule, the rack will fit. If it is a dealer installed or aftermarket item, fit cannot be guaranteed.

Both feature 2 rubber coated straps to secure your bikes during transportation. I have provided links to instructions for the proper installation of these carriers and video reviews of both bike racks.

If you are transporting women's or children's bikes, you may be interested in the Thule Adapter Bar # TH982XT. It provides a horizontal bar for women's bikes and provides a more level means of transportation as well as increased ground clearance for your bike. I have provide a link to a video review of this product as well.
