WHILE DRIVING MY CHEVROLET 2013 MALIBU LTZ MY STABILTRACK LIGHT AND SERVICE POWER STEERING PUMP LIGHT CAME ON MY DASH IMMEDIATELY AFTERWARDS WHEN DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS ANY WHERE FROM ZERO TO THIRTY MILES PER HOUR THE CAR WILL RANDOMLY LOSE ENGINE POWER AND WILL STALL BUT THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM WILL STAY ON BUT THE HEAD LIGHTS GO OUT AND THE POWER STEERING WILL GO OUT MAKING THE VEHICLE HARD TO TURN. THE CAR DIES JUST ABOUT EVERY TIME I AM EITHER ACCELERATING FROM 0 MPH TO ANY LOW SPEED UNLESS I SLAM ON THE GAS PEDAL. IN BUMPER TO BUMPER TRAFFIC IM RESTARTING MY MALIBU EVERY 3 SECONDS AFTER IT DIES. IT'S IS SO DANGEROUS IF I HAVE TO TURN AND THEIR IS ONCOMING TRAFFIC CAUSE THE CAR COULD JUST DIE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE TURN AND BE SMASHED BY ONCOMING TRAFFIC. THIS HAPPENS ON THE STREET ON THE HIGHWAY ANYWHERE IM DRIVING . CAR WAS TAKEN TO DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY HELD IT FOR 2 WEEKS AND SAID IT WAS A OIL PUMP SOLENOID VALVE BEING STUCK.

VEHICLE HAS TO BEEN TAKEN IN SEVERAL TIMES FOR CAM SHAFT POSITION SENSOR FAILURE ALSO. CAR FAILURES HAVE BEEN COMMON SINCE THE DATE I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE
