Consumer Description

CAR WOULD NOT START. REPLACED THE FUEL PUMP. NOT THE PROBLEM. FOUND OUT THAT THE THEFT SYSTEM LIGHT WAS THE PROBLEM AFTER MY BROTHER IN LAW CALLED A FRIEND OF HIS THAT WORKED AT GM. THEFT SYSTEM LIGHT COMES ON WHILE DRIVING AND THERE ARE TIMES THAT THE CAR WILL NOT START AND I HAVE TO LEAVE KEYS IN IGNITION FOR 10-15 MINUTES AND THEN COME BACK, TURN OFF AND THEN TURN ON AGAIN, AND IT STARTS. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE CHEVY MALIBU'S. I AM FORTUNATE THAT I HAVE NOT BEEN DRIVING AND MY CAR CUT OFF ON ME LIKE OTHER MALIBU OWNERS WHO ARE EXPERIENCING THE WHOLE THEFT SYSTEM LIGHT COMING ON. I AM TAKING IT TO THE SHOP TONIGHT TO HAVE THE IGNITION CYLINDER REPLACED BUT HAVE READ FORUMS WHERE THAT DIDN'T HELP EITHER. GM /CHEVY KNOWS THAT HAVE A PROBLEM AND AREN'T DURING ANYTHING ABOUT IT. WHY NOT INVESTIGATE BEFORE YOU HAVE FATALITIES ON THE ROAD AND IT COMES BACK TO FAULTY EQUIPMENT ON CHEVY. *JB
