2013 CHEVROLET MALIBU Electronic Stability Control Esc Problems

HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE EASSIST SYSTEM. THE AUTO STOP FUNCTION CAUSE THE CAR TO STALL AND STOP AND SHAKE SOMETIMES WHILE DRIVING AND STOP AT THE LIGHT OR STOP SIGN I HAVE TO DRIVE IN MANUEL MODE TO DRIVE THE CAR. IF THE CAR NOT IN PART OF IT'S NEUTRAL THE CAR HAS ROLLED BACKWARDS OFF THE PARKING PAD. THAT HAPPENED JUST ONE TIME TO ME. AFTER READING ABOUT OTHER PEOPLE REPORTING THIS, I KEEP THE SAFETY BREAK ON. ALSO I READ ABOUT THE RECALL ON THE E ASSIST . I'M CURRENTLY HAVING THE SAME ISSUES BUT MY VIN NUMBER IS NOT INCLUDED. I GOT THE CAR USED AND ONLY HAD IT FOR A LITTLE OVER A YEAR.

WHEN YOU ARE DRIVING THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM CUTS OFF, MAKING IT HARD TO STEER AND AFFECTING OTHER ELECTRICAL CONTROLS SUCH AS: TOUCH SCREEN, LIGHTS, AND CONTROL PANEL. THE SYSTEM USUALLY SHUTS OFF FOR A BRIEF MOMENT WHEN UTILIZING POWER LOCKS, TURN SIGNALS, AND POWER WINDOWS. RECENTLY, THE ENGINE WON'T START BUT AFTER WAITING FOR A FEW MOMENTS, IT STARTS UP AGAIN. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR THE PAST 8 MONTHS

AFTER ABOUT A MONTH WITH MY CAR MY BLUETOOTH SYSTEM WENT OUT AND WOULD NOT LET ME CONNECT, THEN AFTER SWITCHING TO THE ACTUALLY USB PORT TO PLAY MUSIC AND TALK IT STILL WILL NOT CONNECT.

CAR WILL STALL OUT AND WON'T GO AT TIME WITHOUT PUMPING THE GAS. WE HAVE REPLACED VACUUM PUMP AND BOTH O2 SENSORS. POWER STEERING LOCKS UP WHEN HITTING A SMALL BUMP, WON'T START UNLESS I MOVED THE DRIVERS SEAT UP AND BACK, IF I USE THE BLINKERS MY RADIO GOES OFF IF I USE MY HIGH BEAMS THE RADIO FREEZES. IT WILL DO WEEKS WITH NO ISSUES THEN ONE DAY IT WILL START ACTING UP AND DOES IT FOR DAYS OR WEEKS. CHEVY SAYS THERE IS NO RECAP FOR THAT MODEL BUT I'VE READ MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME THINGS SO WHY IS IT NOT BEING ADDRESSED BY GM

IS BEEN A FEW TIMES WHEN I'M IN A LIGHT AND WHEN I'M ABOUT TO TAKE OFF THE CAR LIKE HOLDS UP AND IT DOESN'T WANTS TO MOVE FORWARD UNLESS I HIT THE GAS HARDER OR JUST PARK IT AND SHUT IT OFF AND IS BEEN SMOKING TROUGH THE A.C. IN LESS THEN 6 MONTHS I HAD TO REPAIR SERTAIN STUFF 3 TIMES. FIRST I TOOK IT TO REPLACE THE FAN ASSEMBLY HYBRID BATTERY AND A NEW HYBRID BATTERY THE OIL FILTER AND THE OIL GASKET CAUSE IT WAS LEAKING OIL AND UPDATE THE SOFTWARE. I TOOK IT OUT IN 3 WEEKS IT WAS BACK IN THE SHOP CAUSE I HAD TO REPLACE THE TIMING CHAINS AND HIGH PRESSURE FUEL PUMP AND PREFORM A SYSTEM SCAN WICH FOUND THAT THERE IS A MECHANICAL ISSUE WITH THE ENGINE AND ALSO THE HIGH FUEL PRESSURE WAS MAKING SLOT OF NOISE. AND PUT...

CAR STALLS WHEN STOPPING AT STOP SIGNS.. WHEN TURNING LOSE POWER LIGHTS, RADIO, AND STEERING. HAS HAPPENED 4 TIMES THIS YEAR..

MY CHEVY MALIBU STALLED OUT ON 3 OCCASIONS NOW. THIS OCCURS AFTER BEING AT A STOP AND APPLYING PRESSURE ON THE GAS TO PLACE THE CAR BACK IN MOTION. I WAS NEARLY STRUCK BY AN ONCOMING VEHICLE ON 2 OCCASIONS WHEN THE CAR STALLED OUT. WOULD HAVE HAD AMPLE TIME AT A GREEN LIGHT HAD THE VEHICLE NOT STALLED. POWER STEERING IS LOST WHEN THIS OCCURS. I HAVE TO POWER OFF AND REPOWER THE VEHICLE TO GET STARTED AGAIN, RESULTING IN SMOKE COMING OUT FROM UNDER THE HOOD AND A SMELL OF BURNT RUBBER.

LOSS OF POWER A LOT. AUTO STOP FEATURE MAKES A STRONG FUEL SMELL. BURNING AND SMOKE COMING FROM FRONT RIGHT SIDE UNDER HOOD. BOUGHT THIS CAR A MONTH AGO.

DROVE TO APPOINTMENT WITH NO ISSUES OR INDICATIONS OF ANYTHING WRONG. FINISHED APPOINTMENT AND STARTED VEHICLE, THE CHECK STABILITRAK WARNING CAME ON. PULLED INTO LANE & VEHICLE IMMEDIATELY REDUCED POWER, UNABLE TO ACCELERATE RAPIDLY AND ALMOST CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. WARNING LIGHT FOR ENGINE OVERSPEED CAME ON. ENGAGED CRUISE CONTROL, WOULD NOT DISENGAGE WHEN BRAKING, OR BY STEERING WHEEL CONTROL WITHOUT SEVERAL ATTEMPTS. WAS ABLE TO SLOWLY INCREASE SPEED TO 50 MPH, MADE IT HOME VIA HILLY SECONDARY ROADS (MAX 50 MPH) AND STOPPED VEHICLE (BRAKE; STILL IN DRIVE), ENGINE TRIED TO GO TO THE ENGINE REST MODE PRIOR TO SHIFTING TO PARK. SHIFTED TO PARK, ENGINE TRIED TO RE-START AND WOULDN'T AUTOMATICALLY DISENGAGE ATTEMPTING TO TURN OVER. SHUT OFF THE ENGINE AND PULLED KEY. WOULD NOT RE-START, BUT WOULD CRANK. WHEN LETTING GO OF KEY IN THE STEERING WHEEL COLUMN, THE ENGINE WOULD STILL TRY TO TURN OVER ON ITS...

VEHICLE OCCASIONALLY LOSES POWER WHEN IN TRAFFIC OR REDUCED SPEED, STABILITRAK MALFUNCTIONS CONSISTENTLY, INITIATING "LIMP MODE", POWER STEERING WENT OUT THIS MORNING AS MY SPEED REDUCED. *TR

I WOKE UP AND WENT TO THE STORE AND WHEN I CAME OUT TO START THE CAR IT DIDN'T START. THE LIGHTS AND RADIO CAME ON AND EVERYTHING WORK EXCEPT WINDOWS WILL NOT GO UP OR DOWN. THE MESSAGE CENTER THEN SHOWED MESSAGE "SERVICE POWER STEERING" CAR WONT START NOW AND BATTERY AND EVERYTHING ELSE IS GOOD AND NEW.

WHEN OPERATING MY VEHICLE WHEN I'M AT A STOP SIGN OR A RED LIGHT OR STUCK IN TRAFFIC THE CAR COMPLETELY DIES THEREFORE I HAVE TO PUT IT IN NEUTRAL OR PARK TO RESTART THE CAR WHICH IS DANGEROUS WHILE I HAVE CHILDREN WITH ME AT THE TIME OR EVEN BY MYSELF WHILE IN HEAVY TRAFFIC.

SERVICE STABITITI TRACK CAME ON LAST NIGHT ALONG WITH TRACTION CONTROL AND ARB I HAVE OWNED MY CAR LESS THEN 1 YEAR AND PUT 10000 MILES ON IT

MY GAUGE CLUSTER STARTED MALFUNCTIONING 2 WEEKS AGO WHILE SITTING IN CAR ON PARKED POSITION. KICKS ON FOR ABOUT 30 MINUTES THEN WILL GO BLACK DOESN'T MATTER IF I'M DRIVING. MY GM MECHANIC ORDERED THE PART BUT STILL HAS NOT ARRIVED, THERE ARE OTHER COMPLAINTS FOR THE SAME ISSUE AND THIS PROBLEM HAS NOT BEEN CORRECTED IT SEEMS UP TO THIS YEAR. HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO FIX MY CHEVY IF I CANNOT GET THE PART. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY MY CAR WILL JUST SHUT DOWN COMPLETELY THEN TURN BACK ON. SOMETIME THE RADIO WILL GO OUT WITH POWER STEERING, ETC. IT JUST SHUTS DOWN FOR NO REASON. WE'VE REPLACEMENT THE BATTERY CABLE SEVERAL MONTHS AGO AS WE HAD THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM AND IT WORKED FOR ABOUT 6 MONTHS. IF I USE MY TURN SIGNAL SOMETIMES IT WILL SHUT DOWN AND TURN BACK ON. DID IT ABOUT 20 TIMES TODAY ON THE WAY TO WORK. WITH MY TWO SMALL CHILDREN IN THE CAR WITH ME. I AM USUALLY DRIVING AROUND 65 TO 75 MPH WHEN THIS HAPPENS.

DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND BATTERY CHARGING SYSTEM AND STABILITY TRACK ERROR MSG SHOWED UP. CAR COMPLETELY SHUT OFF AND HAD TO BE TOWED.

MY 2013 CHEVY MALIBU LT1 ECO IS A HYBRID. ONE DAY DRIVING TO WORK MY POWER STEERING STARTED GOING OUT. AS I KEPT DRIVING, BECAUSE I WAS CLOSE TO WORK, MY CAR WOULD GRADUALLY START DYING. SUDDENLY WHILE DRIVING MY CAR DIED ON ME AND MY POWER STEERING WAS COMPLETELY GONE. I HAD TO STRUGGLE JUST TO GET OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I ALMOST GOT HIT TRYING TO PULL OVER. SEEING HOW ITS A NEWER VEHICLE AND WELL MAINTAINED I DON'T SEE HOW THIS ISN'T A MECHANICAL PROBLEM WITH A FAULTY PART. CALLING AROUND TO THE CHEVY DEALERSHIP MECHANIC SHOPS THEY ARE SAYING ITS THE ALTERNATOR GENERATOR THAT COMES WITH HYBRID VEHICLES. AFTER LOOKING ONLINE I'VE SEEN A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING THIS SAME ISSUE WITH FAULTY PARTS AND EVEN SOME WERE RECALLED, I DON'T SEE WHY CHEVY IS NOT RECALLING THIS VEHICLE TO GET THIS...

THIS HAPPENED TWO DAYS IN A ROW I WAS DRIVING ME SO ME TURNING A CORNER AND MY CAR JUST STOPPED STEER WHEEL LOCKED UP COULD MOVE THE CAR OR NOTHING NEAR HAD AN ACCIDENT I'M A PETRIFIED BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW WHEN THIS GOD HAPPENS AGAIN I VAULE MY LIFE THIS RECALL SERIOUSLY NEEDS TO BE LOOKED INTO I WORKED HARD MANY LONG DAYS TO SAVE TO GET THIS CAR JUST FOR IT TO TURN OUT BAD I SERIOUSLY NEED HELP WITH THIS LIFE THREATENING ISSUE.

THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM WILL RANDOMLY SHUTS DOWN. USUALLY STARTS WITH THE ENTERTAINMENT CONSOLE, AND PROGRESSES TO THE POWER STEERING, AND EVENTUALLY A FULL POWER SHUT DOWN. STATIONARY OR WHILE DRIVING, DOESN'T MATTER, COMPLETE SHUT DOWN. VEHICLE DOES RESTART AS IF NOTHING HAPPENED. DEALERSHIP AND GM NO HELP. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN ONGOING SINCE 2018 WITH MULTIPLE DEALERSHIP SERVICES, AND 2 SEPERATE COMPLAINTS TO GM. 2 NEAR MISS COLLISIONS DUE TO POWER STEERING LOSS.

THE CHARGING SYSTEM WENT COMPLETELY DEAD WHILE DRIVING. I HAD NO POWER STEERING EVERYTHING WENT BLACK NO SPEED, NO LIGHTS, I COULDN'T EVEN TURN ON MY HAZARDS WHILE I WAS SITTING IN THE MIDDLE LANE OF THE INTERSTATE HOPING I WOULDN'T GET KILLED BECAUSE OF THIS. WHY IS THERE NO WARNING TO LET YOU KNOW YOUR BATTERY AND CHARGING SYSTEM IS DEAD. WHY IS THIS NOT A RECALL FROM CHEVY? PLEASE ADVISE.

A FEW TIMES THAT I HAVE BEEN DRIVING MY CAR, I HAVE EXPERIENCED ISSUES WITH THE CAR TURNING OFF AND LOSING POWER STEERING AND CONTROL WHILE IN MOTION. THE WHOLE CAR TURN OFF AND WHEEL LOCKS UP, PREVENTING ME FROM BEING ABLE TO CONTROL THE CAR. COUNTLESS SEARCHING THROUGH FORUMS LED ME TO FIND MANY PEOPLE WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME ISSUE. AND FROM THE FORUMS, MANY CLAIM THE REASON FOR THESE PROBLEMS HAPPENING IS FAULTY BATTERY CABLES THAT GM THAT DOESN'T WANT TO ADMIT. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE I HAVE HAD MY CAR TURN OFF WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND IN THE CITY. AND I'M NOT THE ONLY EXPERIENCING THIS ISSUE. IT'S WIDESPREAD AMONG 2013 CHEVROLET MALIBU'S. HERE IS A LINK TO ONE OF MANY FORUMS TAKING ABOUT THIS ISSUE: HTTPS://WWW.CARGURUS.COM/CARS/DISCUSSION-T33502_DS916791

TAKATA RECALL THE LIGHTS ON MY DASH KEPT GOING IN AND OUT WHILE I WAS DRIVING AND WHILE STATIONARY. WHILE MY CAR WAS OFF, WITH NO KEY IN THE IGNITION, THE GAUGES WOULD MAKE CLICKING SOUNDS AND BOUNCE UP AND DOWN ABOUT AN 8TH OF AN INCH. THE LIGHTS ON THE DASH WOULD STAY OFF FOR DAYS AT A TIME, MAKING IT IMPOSSIBLE FOR ME TO SEE HOW FAST I WAS GOING OR HOW MUCH GAS WAS IN THE CAR. SOMETIMES THE LIGHTS WOULD CLICK ON FOR ABOUT 30 SECONDS AND THEN THE SPEEDOMETER WOULD BE STUCK AT THE LAST SPEED I WAS GOING AT, FOR DAYS, WITHOUT SHOWING ANYTHING ON THE DIGITAL SPEEDOMETER. WHEN I TOOK IT TO GET LOOKED AT, NO CODES WERE FOUND. MY CAR KEPT DYING WHILE I WAS DRIVING, WENT AND HAD MY BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR TESTED AND THEY WERE 100% FINE. CAR DASH LIGHTS...

SOMETIMES IT HAPPENS WHEN I TURN ON MY BLINKER OTHERS ITS RANDOM BUT THE CAR STALLS AND THE RADIO TURNS OFF ALONG WITH THE POWER STEERING.

DOOR LOCKS ENGAGING AND DISENGAGING RANDOMLY WHILE DRIVING, HEADLIGHTS TURNING OFF AND ON RANDOMLY WHILE DRIVING, CAR STARTING WHILE PARKED IN GARAGE (NO REMOTE START). DEALERSHIP REPLACED BCM, COULD NOT GUARANTEE THIS FIXED THE PROBLEM. INDICATED THEY HAD NEVER SEEN THE ISSUE BEFORE. WITHIN 2 WEEKS, ALL ISSUES REPEATED THEMSELVES. RETURNED TO DEALERSHIP. THE DEALERSHIP KEPT THE CAR FOR 2 WEEKS AND THEN CALLED ME AND LEFT A MESSAGE TO PICK IT UP AS THEY COULD NOT FIND THE ISSUE. WHEN I CALLED BACK, THE DEALERSHIP SAID "IT WAS A GOOD THING YOU HAVEN'T PICKED UP THE VEHICLE YET, IT STARTED ON ITS OWN 3 TIMES THIS MORNING". IF I HAD PICKED THIS VEHICLE UP, THE ISSUE WOULD HAVE HAPPENED AGAIN WHILE I WAS AT HOME. CASE HAS BEEN FILED WITH CHEVROLET CUSTOMER CAR, AND SUFS (GM GLOBAL SAFETY). NO ACTION HAS BEEN TAKEN. NO ENGINEERS HAVE BEEN SENT DOWN...

THE CAR WILL STALL WHILE PULLING INTO TRAFFIC OR AT A RED LIGHT OR STOP SIGN. AFTER MMSEVERAL STOPS IT DRAINS THE BATTERY COMPLETELY. NO PROBLEMS WHEN DRIVING LONG DISTANCES ON THE INTERSTATE. VERY DANGEROUS. L

WHILE DRIVING MY 2013 CHEVY MALIBU ON THE HIGHWAY & TURNPIKE, I WAS DRIVING APPROX 60-70 MILES AND HOUR AND THEN OUT OF NOWHERE THE VEHICLE DECREASED SPEED DOWN TO 30 MPH AND ALSO HAD ME CAUSE AN ACCIDENT WITH THE DRIVERS BEHIND ME. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT THEN CAME ON AND A MESSAGE "ENGINE POWER HAS BEEN REDUCED". I WAS ABLE TO PULL THE CAR OVER; HOWEVER, THIS IS A DANGER AND SHOULD BE RESOLVED AS STILL THIS CONTINUES TO OCCUR SINCE I HAVE CONTACTED GENERAL MOTORS AND ADVISED OF THE SAFETY ISSUE. STILL HAVE NOT SEEN A RECALL ON THIS ISSUE YET WHICH I WAS SHOCKED. I ASKED THE GENTLEMAN IF THERE HAVE BEEN OTHER COMPLAINTS AND HE STATED YES. SO I AM VERY SHOCKED THAT THIS ISSUE HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED. MY VEHICLE NOW IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND STILL MECHANICS DO NOT KNOW WHAT IS WRONG...

MULTIPLE TIMES WHILE SINCE I'VE HAD IT IT HAS REDUCED ENGINE POWER ( STABILTRAK) ON ME WHILE DRIVING. JUST RECENTLY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON WITH CODES READING FOR CAMSHAFT ACTUATORS FAILING AND PCM FAILING. THE CAR CHUGS WILL DRIVING AND HAS EVEN DIED WHILE OPERATING.

WHEN DRIVING MY CARS ELECTRIC SYSTEM WILL SHUT DOWN. RADIO GOES OFF THEN LIGHTS ON THE DASH GO CRAZY AND STEERING WHEEL JERKS REAL HARD AND LOSS OF STEERING FOR A FEW SECONDS THEN IT ALL COMES BACK ON.

FOR ABOUT A YEAR NOW S 'SERVICE AIRBAG' LIGHT HAS BEEN ON, NO ONE WHO TESTS IT CAN SEE WHAT THE ISSUE IS. WHEN ANYONE SITS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT, THE DASH TURNS OFF, ALL LIGHTS ON IT, STEREO, ALL GAUGES CEASE TO FUNCTION AS WELL AS THE A/C. HAS BEEN TAKEN TO NUMEROUS DEALERSHIPS & SHOPS WITH NO CONCLUSION BESIDES THAT 'IT'S AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE' THAT SHOULD BE RECALLED. I NOTICE MANY PEOPLE HAVE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM ISSUES WITH THIS MAKE & MODEL WHEN I SEARCHED FOR A RECALL, ASTONISHING THAT NOTHING IS BEING DONE & VINS EXPERIENCING THE PROBLEM AREN'T ON THE RECALL LISTS. THE AIRBAGS IN THE CAR ARE FINE ACCORDING TO MECHANICS, NO REASON THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT SHOULD APPEAR & INCREDIBLY FRUSTRATING THAT I CANT HAVE A PASSENGER IN MY VEHICLE, ESPECIALLY DURING ARIZONA SUMMER WEATHER, NOT TO MENTION THE DANGER POSED BY NO GAUGES BEING...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET MALIBU. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE STABILITY ASSIST WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER TO BE DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THEY WOULD CALL THE CONTACT BACK, BUT THEY HAD NOT. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 118,899.

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE THE CAR POWERS DOWN. THE RADIO TURNS OFF, LIGHTS ON DASH GOES OUT AND POWER STEERING LOCKS UP. IF DRIVEN OVER A SPEED BUMP OR POTHOLE ALL ELECTRICAL COMPONETS POWER DOWN. I WAS DRIVING AND PUT MY SIGNAL ON, THE VEHICLE SHUTDOWN AND STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UNTIL IT REBOOTED ITSSELF. THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE ON STREET, HIGHWAY NOR SPEED. WHEN IT LOOSES POWER THERE IS NO WAY TO ALERT THE NEARBY DRIVERS WITH HAZARD LIGHTS AS EVERYTHING HAS BEEN SHUT OFF. ON GOING MATTER, HAS BEEN TO DEALER MULTIPLE TIMES AND DIFFERENT LOCATIONS

I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY GOING 70MPH AND THE CAR LOST POWER AND THE SERVICE STABILI TRACK AND REDUCE POWER MESSAGES CAME ON AND SLOWED DOWN TO 30MPH. THANK GOD I GOT TO PULL OVER SAFELY.MY SON AND I HAD TO BE TOWED HOME

DASHBOARD INSTRUMENT CLUSTER FLICKS ON & OFF WHILE DRIVING HIGHWAY, SIDE STREET OR STATIONARY NO DIFFERENCE. CAR ACTS AS IF IT IS BEING STARTED OVER & OVER WHILE DRIVING. CHECK ENGINE, STABILITY CONTROL & OTHER WARNINGS FLASH. BELL DINGS OVER & OVER. NOW 6 MONTHS LATER, INSTRUMENT CLUSTER DOESN'T WORK AT ALL. NO SPEED/OIL/GAS INDICATORS. DEALERSHIP & MECHANIC SHOP CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG DURING DIAGNOSTICS. NO CODES.

VEHICLE LOOSES POWER CAUSING THE TRACTION LIGHT TO COME ON, POWER STEERING TO GO OUT, VEHICLE BECOMES HARD TO STEER AND EVENTUALLY GOES DEAD. HAPPENS RANDOMLY.

WHILE DRIVING AND MOVING OR USING STEERING DRIVE CAR COMPLETELY SHUTS DOWN. I ALMOST HAD 2 ACCIDENTS BECAUSE OF THIS. IT HAPPENS RANDOMLY SUDDENLY THE CAR WHILE DRIVING SHUTS DOWN, STEREO GOES OFF AND DRIVING STEERING WHEEL GOES HARD I CANT USE IT. WHEN I TURN OFF THE CAR TRYING TO PARK IT IT SHUTS DOWN AND KEYS GET LOCKED OR STUCK, UNABLE TO REMOVE KEYS. WHILE DRIVING SOMETIMES IF YOU TURN ON HIGHLIGHTS IT SHUTS DOWN THE CAR. THIS IS VERY UNSAFE, REALLY DISAPPOINTED WITH GENERAL MOTORS AND CHEVROLET. I ALMOST CRASH WITH OTHER CAR BECAUSE OF THIS. IT REALLY IS A FABRIC ISSUE, THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF CASES AND COMPLAINTS DEMONSTRATING THAT THIS IS A ERROR THAT GM OR CHEVROLET NEEDS TO FIX FOR THE SAFETY OF THEIR CUSTOMERS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET MALIBU. WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY STOPPED MOVING AND WAS UNABLE TO CHANGE GEARS TO MOVE OFF THE ROADWAY. THE FAILURE OCCURRED WITHOUT WARNING. AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WAS ABLE TO GO TO THE LOCATION AND SERVICED THE VEHICLE BY REPLACING THE ALTERNATOR ASSEMBLY; HOWEVER, THE FAILURES CONTINUED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE STABILITY CONTROL WARNING INDICATOR FLASHED, VARIOUS OTHER WARNING INDICATORS AND GAUGES FLICKERED, AND THE STEERING WHEEL BECAME INOPERABLE. ONCE THE WARNING INDICATORS HAD GONE OFF, THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO MANEUVER THE STEERING WHEEL IN EITHER DIRECTION; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE WAS GETTING PROGRESSIVELY WORSE. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE KEY WAS UNABLE TO BE REMOVED FROM THE IGNITION. THE DEALER (VADEN OF BEAUFORT, 103 ROBERT SMALLS PKWY, BEAUFORT, SC 29906, (843) 525-4100) WAS CONTACTED TO SCHEDULE AN DIAGNOSTIC APPOINTMENT. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES....

TAKATA RECALL I HAVE MY CAR FOR LESS THAN 6 MONTH DASHBOARD IS DEAD IT JUMPS ON AND OFF FROM TIME TO TIME , SERVICES LIGHTS ARE COMING ON , MY STEERLING WHEEL IS PULLING TO THE RIGHT I CAN'T LET IT GO WITH IT PULLING AND ALMOST CAUSING A WRECK ON THE ROAD

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND CITY STREETS MY CAR ELECTRICAL SYSTEM CUT COMPLETELY OFF WHILE ENGINE IS STILL RUNNING. IT JERKS THE CAR TO LEFT OR RIGHT AND THEN CUTS BACK MLM ON. CAN'T STEER UNTIL THE POWER COMES BACK ON IF I'M DRIVING OR PARKED. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS COMES ON THEN MESSAGE OF ENGINE POWER REDUCED. HAVE BEEN IN SERVICE SEVERAL TIMES ABOUT CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMING ON AND STILL CANT FIX THE PROBLEM. THIS IS DANGEROUS AND AFRAID I WILL GET IN AN ACCIDENT SOON. SOMETHING HAS TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS.

PROBLEMS ACCELERATING FROM STATIONARY POSITIONS AND ACCELERATING/DRIVING UNDER 2RPM WITH LOTS OF CHUGGING. OCCASIONALLY STALLS OUT WHEN DRIVING IN REVERSE AND HAS TO BE RESTARTED. OCCURS MORE OFTEN WHEN THERE ARE HIGH TEMPS OUTSIDE (75F AND ABOVE)

TOUCH SCREEN GOES BLACK, LOSE SOUND, RANDOMLY LOSE POWER WHILE DRIVING, CAR COMPLETELY STALLS AT STOP AS WELL AS WHILE DRIVING, STEERING WHEEL LOCKS WHILE DRIVING GOING STRAIGHT OR IN THE MIDDLE OF TURN, ALL THIS HAPPENS AT RANDOM TIMES DOESN'T MATTER HOW FAR AND HOW LONG, NO TRIGGER HAS BEEN FOUND, DEALERSHIP CAN NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. CAR WILL LOCK KEY IN THE IGNITION AND WILL NOT RELEASE FOR A WHILE AND NO ELECTRICITY WORKS. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND CAR WAS RELEASED BACK TO ME BECAUSE NO ISSUE WAS FOUND. TESTING WAS DONE AND FOUND NO ISSUES WITH MY CAR. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR A FEW MONTHS

WHILE DRIVING (ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS) ON CITY STREETS MY CAR EXPERIENCES MULTIPLE ELECTRONIC FAILURES INCLUDING.. FLICKERING DISPLAY SCREEN, LOSS OF MY LINK RADIO SYSTEM, SHUT DOWN OF POWER STEERING, AND WARNING DISPLAYS OF NEED TO SERVICE STABILITY SYSTEM. WHEN IT FIRST OCCURED I WAS TURNING RIGHT IN A CITY INTERSECTION LOSS OF POWER STEERING LED THE WHEEL TO LOCK AND THIS LACK OF CONTROL ALMOST FORCED ME INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE, I WAS FORCED TO SLAM ON THE BRAKES AND STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTIONS AND RESTART THE CAR TO REGAIN CONTROL. IT CONTINUES TO DISPLAY THIS ISSUE UNTIL I MADE IT TO THE MECHANIC. THE MECHANIC ALSO DROVE THE VEHICLE AND LOGGED SIMILIAR EXPERIENCES. AFTER THE ISSUE WAS THOUGHT TO BE A LOOSE GROUND IN THE CAR THE PROBLEM SEEMED TO BE RESOLVED.I EMAILED CHEVY MULTIPLE TIMES ABOUT MY CONCERNS WONDERING IF THIS WAS A NOTED PROBLEM FOR...

MY 2013 CHEVROLET MALIBU LOST POWER AND SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING ON FIVE DIFFERENT OCCASIONS TO DATE. THE FIRST TWO TIMES I HAD COME TO A COMPLETE STOP AND THE KEY COULD NOT BE REMOVED FROM THE IGNITION. I HAD TO WAIT FOR 10 TO 30 MINUTES BEFORE THE POWER RETURNED AND COULD REMOVE THE KEY OR RESTART THE VEHICLE. ON THE THIRD OCCASION, I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND THE RADIO AND AIR CONDITIONING LOST POWER AND THE CAR WAS THREATENING TO SHUT OFF BUT REGAINED POWER. THE STEERING WHEEL BRIEFLY LOCKED UP DURING THIS EVENT. I LATER TURNED OFF ON THE NEAREST EXIT MAKING A COMPLETE STOP AT THE LIGHT AND THE VEHICLE LOST COMPLETE POWER AND SHUT OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC.THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP, THE RADIO AND ALL LIGHTS WENT BLACK AND THE AIR SHUT OFF FOR A FEW SECONDS AND THEN CAME...

WHILE DRIVING, ALL ELECTRONIC SYSTEMS SHUT OFF. THE ENGINE IS STILL RUNNING BUT THE GAUGES, POWER STEERING, TRACTION CONTROL, EVERYTHING. ANYTHING ELECTRICAL SHUTS OFF. IT'S HAPPENED ON THE FREEWAY GOING 60 MPH AND ON RESIDENTIAL STREETS ONLY GOING 15 MPH.

I AM HAVING A PROBLEM WITH MY SPEEDOMETER JUMPING, AND THERE IS ALSO AN INDICATER LIGHT THAT KEEPS POPPING ON SAYING THAT MY CAR IS LOSING POWER. I'VE TAKEN TO THE LANDERS DEALERSHIP WHERE I AM PURCHASING MY CAR FROM SIX TIME'S NOW TO BE FIXED, AND YET IT CONTINUES TO HAPPEN.

RANDOM STABILITRAK WARNING FOLLOWED BY ENGINE POWER REDUCED. HAPPENS RANDOMLY WHILE DRIVING. SECOND INSTANCE. FIRST INSTANCE WAS ON INTERSTATE IN HEAVY TRAFFIC. LUCKY TO NOT BE REAR-ENDED.

PURCHASED CAR CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED. FIRST WINTER ENTERTAINMENT DISPLAY AND WARNING LIGHTS STARTED TO FLICKER RANDOMLY, AND CAR WOULD NOT RELIABLY START. TOOK TO DEALERSHIP AND THEY WERE UNABLE TO RECREATE THE SYMPTOMS. THE FOLLOWING WINTER THE ENTIRE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM BEGAN FAILING UPON ENGAGING IT WHILE IN MOTION. FOR EXAMPLE: USING THE THE POWER WINDOWS, ENGAGEMENT OF THE TRACTION CONTROL IN SLIPPERY WEATHER, USING A TURN SIGNAL, WERE ALL CAPABLE OF SHUTTING DOWN ALL ELECTRICAL OPTIONS IN THE VEHICLE INCLUDING THE POWER STEERING. NEARLY CAUSED A COUPLE ACCIDENTS. THE SERVICE STABILTRAK LIGHT WOULD ALSO COME INTERMITTENTLY COME ON. BROUGHT TO DEALERSHIP AGAIN, THEY CLEARED THE DASH LIGHTS AND RESET A SENSOR THAT WAS SHOWING BAD IN A DIAGNOSTIC SCAN. CAR RAN SMOOTHLY FOR A FEW MONTHS. SHOWED SYMPTOMS AGAIN OVER THE SUMMER(LIGHTS FLICKERING AND LOSS OF TOUCH SCREEN MOMENTARILY). DEALERSHIP WAS UNABLE TO RECREATE AGAIN. NOW THIS WINTER THE CAR IS...

MY 2013 CHEVY MALIBU HAS BEEN HAVING POWER AND/OR ELECTRICAL ISSUES. I HAVE TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP NUMEROUS OF TIMES, BUT THE ISSUE IS STILL ONGOING. WHEN I STEER LEFT OR RIGHT, MY CAR POWERS DOWN AND THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKS. SOME TIMES THE CAR RADIO SCREEN AND DASHBOARD LIGHTS FLASHES ON & OFF. THE ONLY WAY TO MAKE IT STOP IS TO TURN THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON. I CAN BE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND THE CAR WILL SHUT DOWN AND POWER OFF ON ITS OWN. IT IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS, BUT THAT IS THE ONLY TRANSPORTATION I HAVE RIGHT NOW. I AM NOT SURE WHAT IS GOING ON AND I HAVE SEEN NUMEROUS OF COMPLAINTS FROM PEOPLE WITH THE SAME ISSUES. PLEASE INVESTIGATE.

CAR SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED. TOUCH SCREEN GOES BLACK AND POWER STEERING GOES OUT. IT HAPPENS MORE FREQUENT WHEN TURNING. IT IS UNSAFE BECAUSE IF YOU ARE DRIVING ON A CURVE IT COULD CAUSE A CRASH BECAUSE THE STEERING WHEEL WILL NOT TURN. YOU LOOSE CONTROL OF THE CAR.

SOON AS MY CAR HIT 47000 MIKES IT STARTED LOOSING POWER. I WOULD BE DRIVING AND THE RADIO GOES OFF AND THEN I LOOSE POWER STEERING FOR A BRIEF TIME. NEVER KNOW WHEN IT'S GOING TO HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING. HAS DONE THUS AT LEAST 12 TIMES!

WHEN DRIVING THE CAR THE RADIO PANEL, AIR CONDITIONING, CONTROL PANEL AND POWER STEERING GOES OUT. WHEN DRIVING OVER 45 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY, THE ENGINE WILL NOT STOP. HOWEVER, WHEN DRIVING 45 MPH OR BELOW ON CITY STREETS, THE CAR WILL SHUT COMPLETELY OFF AND I WILL HAVE TO RESTART THE CAR. EVERYTHING GOES COMPLETE OFF. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUE FOR SEVERAL MONTHS NOW. THE CAR HAS HAD THIS ISSUE WHILE IN TRAFFIC AND I WAS HIT FROM BEHIND. FORTUNATELY, WE WERE PULLING OFF FROM A STOP LIGHT AND THE IMPACT WAS NOT ENOUGH TO CAUSE AN INJURY. I HAVE RESEARCHED ON YOUTUBE AND ONLINE AND THERE ARE SEVERAL OTHER CONSUMERS WITH THIS EXACT SAME ISSUE. ALSO, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT NEVER COMES ON BUT IT DOES SAY SERVICE POWER STEERING AND SERVICE STABILI TRAK. SOMETIMES WHEN THE CAR IS NOT MOVING (PARKED) IT WILL ALSO CUT...
