NHTSA Complaint #11245113 — 2013 CHEVROLET MALIBU

19 AUGUST 2019 ON THIS DAY TWICE I EXPERIENCE LOSS OF POWER ON THE VEHICLE AND POWER STEERING. LUCKILY I DID NOT HIT ANY CARS. WAS DRIVING BELOW 35 MPH THE FIRST INCIDENT IS WHEN I CAME TO A RED LIGHT THE RADIO TURN OFF FIRST THEN THE CAR FELT SLUGGISH AND THE ENGINE SHUT DOWN LOST CONTROL OF EVERYTHING AND WAS COASTING. VEHICLE GAIN POWER BY IT SELF AND RESUME OPERATIONS. DURING EVERY LIGHT I STOP IT FELT LIKE IT WANTED TO LOSE POWER. CAME TO A PARKING LOT DRIVING AROUND 5 MPH COMPLETELY THE CAR SHUT OFF FIRST RADIO AND THEN WHOLE VEHICLE THIS TIME IT DID NOT GAIN POWER BY IT SELF. HAD TO PLACE THE VEHICLE IN PARK TURN THE KEY OFF AND RESTART IT WAS ABLE TO PARK IT. AFTER READING HERE SEEMS A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING THIS ISSUE AN IMMEDIATE INVESTIGATION SHOULD BE OPEN BECAUSE THIS CAN POSSIBLY HAPPEN IN THE HIGHWAY IF I LOSE CONTROL POWER IN THE POWER STEERING I COULD POTENTIALLY CRASH OF GET HIT BY A CAR . CALL GM AND THEY SAID THEY DO NOT HAVE A BULLETIN ASK THEM FOR AN ADDRESS TO SUBMIT A FORMAL COMPLAINT AND WAS GIVEN ONE. I DON'T THINK GM CARES HOPEFULLY YOU GUYS CAN LOOK INTO THE ISSUE AND GET AND ANSWER AS TO WHY IS HAPPENING CONSUMERS SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY A DIAGNOSTIC FEE AND NOT GET ANSWERS
