Consumer Description

MY 2013 CHEVY MALIBU HAS BEEN HAVING POWER AND/OR ELECTRICAL ISSUES. I HAVE TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP NUMEROUS OF TIMES, BUT THE ISSUE IS STILL ONGOING. WHEN I STEER LEFT OR RIGHT, MY CAR POWERS DOWN AND THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKS. SOME TIMES THE CAR RADIO SCREEN AND DASHBOARD LIGHTS FLASHES ON & OFF. THE ONLY WAY TO MAKE IT STOP IS TO TURN THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON. I CAN BE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND THE CAR WILL SHUT DOWN AND POWER OFF ON ITS OWN. IT IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS, BUT THAT IS THE ONLY TRANSPORTATION I HAVE RIGHT NOW. I AM NOT SURE WHAT IS GOING ON AND I HAVE SEEN NUMEROUS OF COMPLAINTS FROM PEOPLE WITH THE SAME ISSUES. PLEASE INVESTIGATE.
