NHTSA Complaint #10907548 — 2006 CHEVROLET MALIBU MAXX

MY VEHICLE LOCKS UP WHEN I PRESS THE GAS PEDAL. IT HAPPENS UNDER LOW SPEEDS IN STREET TRAFFIC, ESPECIALLY WHEN HAVING TO ACCELERATE AT TURNS, AS WELL AS HIGHWAY SPEEDS WHEN ACCELERATING TO GET ONTO ONRAMPS. IT HAPPENS IF I ACCELERATE QUICKLY AND THE POWER STEERING LOCKS UP AND I LOOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. THE DASH BOARD ENTIRELY LIGHTS UP, MAKES A CHIME SOUND AND BLINKS. IT THEN WILL RESUME NORMAL OPERATION ONCE I RELEASE THE GAS PEDAL. I HAVE CONTACTED CHEVROLET AND THEY HAVE SAID THAT MY VEHICLE ISN'T PART OF THE RECALL 14772 BUT IT IS EXACTLY HAPPENING AS DESCRIBED.
