NHTSA Complaint #11306732 — 2015 CHEVROLET MALIBU

IN SEPT OF 2019, MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON FOR MY 2015 CHEVY MALIBU. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND IT RAN THE CODE P2646, AND THE THEY TOLD ME THAT I NEEDED THE GM PART 12633613. THEY ATTEMPTED TO ORDER IT, BUT SAID IT WAS ON BACKORDER AND HAD BEEN FOR A WHILE AND THEY WOULD LOOK INTO IT FOR ME. HERE IT IS, FEB OF 2020 AND STILL NO PART. GM THAT THE PART HAS BEEN DISCONTINUED AND THERE IS NO ETA FOR A NEW PART. THEY TOLD ME IT WAS OKAY TO DRIVE, BUT IT HAS A ROUGH IDLE, POWER SURGES, IT CAN BARELY ACCELERATE AND IT HAS STALLED ON ME SEVERAL TIMES. THEY KEEP TELLING ME OH IT'S A "PART DELAY". NO, IT'S NOT ! YOU DON'T MAKE THE PART ANYMORE. THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE THE 2014-2015 MALIBU'S & IMPALA'S WITH THE SAME ISSUE. THEY NEED TO ISSUE A RECALL AND FIX THESE CARS. MY CAR IS LESS THAN 5 YEARS OLD & THERE IS NO REASON THAT THEY SHOULDN'T HAVE A VERY SIMPLE, $60 PART FOR IT.
