NHTSA Complaint #10990476 — 2014 CHEVROLET MALIBU

THE ABS LIGHT SHOWED ON THE MESSAGE CENTER WHEN I STARTED MY CAR TO LEAVE FOR WORK ON A MONDAY MORNING SO I TOOK MY CAR TO GREEN CHEVROLET IN DERIDDER LA. THE MECHANIC LOOKED AT THE CAR AND SAID THE SENSOR WAS BAD SO THEY ORDERED ANOTHER. AFTER REPLACING IT THE LIGHT DID NOT GO OFF SO THEY SCHEDULED ANOTHER APPOINTMENT TO CHECK INTO THE PROBLEM AGAIN. I TOOK THE CAR BACK AND THE MECHANIC SAID IT WAS A SENSOR AND WOULD BE CLOSE TO $ 400 TO REPLACE IT. I PAID $200 THE FIRST TIME. SO I CALLED GM TO ASK ABOUT THE RECALL THAT WAS IN PLACE ON THE SAME YEAR, MAKE AND MODEL AS MY CAR. I WAS TOLD THAT WHILE THE RECALL WAS ACTIVE, IT DID NOT INCLUDE MY CAR BECAUSE IT CAME FROM A DIFFERENT PLANT. SO GM WORKED WITH THE REPAIR SHOP TO LOWER THE COST FOR THE SECOND REPAIR. I PAID $115. THAT AS IN FEBRUARY 2017. THE MECHANIC AT THE SERVICE CENTER SAID THAT THEY HAVE SEEN THIS PART BEING REPLACED SEVERAL TIMES AND THAT IT NEEDED TO BE RECALLED. IN APRIL 2017 I WAS ON MY WAY TO MISSOURI FOR A FUNERAL AND MY ABS LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. I CALLED THE SERVICE CENTER AND WAS TOLD TO BRING MY CAR IN WHEN I RETURNED HOME. I CALLED GM AGAIN TO COMPLAIN THAT IT WAS ON AGAIN. I TOOK MY CAR BACK INTO THE SHOP AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS THE SAME PROBLEM BUT A DIFFERENT WHEEL. AGAIN THE MECHANIC SAID THAT THE PART NEEDED TO BE RECALLED. SO NOW I HAVE TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE THE SENSOR REPLACED AND PAY MORE MONEY. I AM WRITING TO ASK WHY THE PART HAS NOT BEEN RECALLED FOR ALL 2014 CHEVROLET MALIBUS. I AM PAYING FOR A PROBLEM THAT A RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED ON WHILE OTHERS OWNERS ARE NOT. MY CAR HAS 47,000 MILES . IT IS MY PRIMARY VEHICLE. HOW MANY TIMES AM I GOING TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM? PLEASE EXPAND THE RECALL TO INCLUDE MORE VEHICLES. OBVIOUSLY IT IS NOT HAPPENING TO CARS FROM JUST ONE AREA. THANK YOU
