NHTSA Complaint #11172602 — 2011 CHEVROLET MALIBU

THIS IS AN UPDATE ON NHTSA COMPLAINT #11144041. I BROUGHT IT TO DEALER EARLY NOVEMBER 2018, BUT THEY DID NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG AS THERE WERE NO CODES. LAST WEEK TUESDAY(1/22/19), IT HAPPENED AGAIN(REDUCED ENGINE POWER, SERVICE ESC, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT) WHILE DRIVING ON MY WAY TO WORK. I WAS ABOUT 2 MILES FROM HOME SLOWING DOWN FROM 45 MPH TO STOP AT LIGHT , I HAD MY HUSBAND BRING IT IN TO CHECK CODES WHEN DEALERSHIP OPENED. THEY REPLACED ACCELERATOR PEDAL ASSEMBLY AND PUT A NEW PIGTAIL ON THROTTLE BODY. IT HAPPENED AGAIN ON SATURDAY (1/26/19)WHEN I WAS 4 MILES FROM HOME ON A CITY STREET AT 45 MPH. I DROVE IT THE LAST TWO MILES TO WORK W/ HAZARD LIGHT ON AND SLOWLY AS I COULD ONLY GET SPEED UP TO 25-30 MPH. I TRIED SEVERAL TIMES TO TURN OFF AND RESTART CAR TO "RESET" TO NORMAL. TODAY THE DEALER IS REPLACING THE THROTTLE BODY ASSEMBLY. THIS WILL BE THE THIRD ONE IN 7 MONTHS AT A COST OF OVER $1000 IN REPAIRS. DEALER WILL NOT LOOK AT ANY OTHER OPTIONS UNTIL IT HAS CLEARED THIS CODE. SEEMS TO ME, THERE MUST BE A WIRE, FUSE OR SOMETHING ELSE ELECTRICAL WRONG THAT KEEPS TRIPPING THIS CODE. I HAVE RECEIPTS OF ALL WORK DONE TO DATE.
