NHTSA Complaint #11258890 — 2009 CHEVROLET MALIBU

THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN IN FOR MULTIPLE "RECALL FIXES", FOR ELECTRICAL AND LIGHTING ISSUES. THE REGISTRY SHOWS THAT ALL RECALLS WERE FIXED (PURELY COSMETIC WORK) WITH REGARDS TO THE VEHICLES LIGHTS BEING REPLACED (RECEIVED FIX IT TICKETS BY THE AUTHORITIES). BUT MY CAR DIDN'T BURN OUT LIGHTS, SHE MELTED THEM, WHILE I WAS DEPLOYED, HER ELECTRICAL SYSTEM FRIED THE SECURITY SYSTEM AND THE CAR'S COMPUTER (BRAIN). REPAIRS WERE MADE IN 2014 WHEN I RETURNED FROM OVERSEAS, AND SHE WAS FINE FOR A COUPLE OF MONTHS. THEN STARTED MALFUNCTIONING AGAIN IN 2015 AND 2016. I WAS CHARGED FOR REPAIRS AND REPLACEMENTS FROM CHEVY DEALERSHIPS AND THEY FIXED THE MINOR ISSUES. NOW IN 2019 THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM IS SHORTING OUT AGAIN STATING THAT THE ENGINE IS WORKING AT DECREASED POWER AND MY CAR IS DRAINING HER OWN BATTERY AND LOCKING UP. I BOUGHT HER USED BACK IN 2009, AND EVERY COUPLE OF MONTHS OR YEARS THERE IS AN ELECTRONICS MALFUNCTION AND I'VE HAD SUCH HORRIBLE LUCK FINDING A TRUSTWORTHY DEALERSHIP TO TAKE HER TO FOR REPAIRS, I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO. SHE STILL CONTINUES TO HAVE ELECTRONIC SYSTEM MALFUNCTIONS WHERE SHE'LL BURN OUT OR MELT A COMPONENT IN THE VEHICLE. SHE JUST STARTED MALFUNCTIONING AGAIN AND WHEN I INSPECTED THE BATTERY, SHE HAD MELTED THE PLASTIC HOUSING UNIT.
