Consumer Description
SEPT 2019 THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON IN MY 2015 CHEVROLET MALIBU. DEALER DETERMINED PART# 12633613, ROCKER ARM CONTROL VALVE, IS THE SOURCE OF THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. I CAN NOT GET THE PART THRU DEALER OR AFTERMARKET. I AM IN CONTACT WITH THE DEALER ON A WEEKLY BASIS AND THERE IS NO ETA ON OBTAINING THE PART. I FILED A CASE WITH CHEVROLET ALSO AND THEY ALSO HAVE NO ETA. EVERY TWO DAYS A CHEVY REP CALLS ME TO TELL ME THERE IS NO UPDATED INFORMATION. THIS PART AFFECTS MALIBU'S & IMPALA'S AND IF YOU LOOK ONLINE THERE ARE HUNDREDS, IF NOT THOUSANDS, OF PEOPLE THAT NEED THE SAME PART. THERE ARE EVEN ONLINE FORUMS DEDICATED TO THIS PARTICULAR PART PROBLEM. OBVIOUSLY THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE DESIGN OF THE PART FOR THIS MANY PEOPLE LOOKING FOR REPLACEMENTS. THIS IS A DEFECTIVE PART AND CHEVROLET APPARENTLY IS NOT DOING ANYTHING TO FIX IT.
