Consumer Description
I HAVE A 2009 CHEVY MALIBU .RECALL WEBISITE REFLECTS NUMEROUS RECALLS REGARDING MY AUTO , MAKE AND MODEL. WHILE DRIVING ON A 6 LANE HWY,, I HAVE LOST POWER STEERING TWICE. WHICH IS ALMOST IMPOSSABLE TO CONTROL. ALSO, THE AUTOMATIC LOCKS HAVE STOPPED OPERATING EVEN WHEN PRESSING THE DOOR AUTO LOCK/ UNLOCK BUTTON .YOU CAN HEAR THEN TRYING TO FUNCTION HOWEVER DOES NOT. ALSO, WHILE SITTING IN PARK, I CRANK MY CAR AND SHIFT TO REVERSE, MY CAR DOES NOT GO INTO REVERSE. SOMETIME IT WILL HIT VERY HARD AND SOMETIME NOT GO INTO GEAR AT ALL. I PLACE MY CAR IN DRIVE AND MOVE FORWARD THEN TO REVERSE , THE CAR GOES INTO REVERSE . ON OTHER OCCASIONS , I TURN THE CAR OFF, RE-CRANK IT AND ITS FINE. THESE PROBLEMS ARE LISTED AS RECALLS FOR THE MAKE AND MODEL OF MY AUTO HOWEVER, DOESN'T APOEAR UNDER MY VIN WHEN I SEARCH. WHAT CAN I DO I AM AFFRAID FOR MY SAFETY WHILE DRIVING MY CAR AND ALSO RELUCTANT TO DRIVE IT. THESE ISSUES NEED TO BE RESOLVED AS THEY APPEAR AS RECALLS. WHEN YOU LOOSE CONTROL WHILE DRIVING AND YOUR SAFETY IS IN JEOPARDY, ITS TIME TO EXPECT RESULTS.
