2010 CHEVROLET MALIBU Complaints

SOMETIMES WHEN I AM DRIVING OR TURNING THE CAR ON, MY POWER STEERING INDICATION LIGHT COMES ON AND THE POWER STEERING GOES COMPLETELY OUT. ONCE I CUT THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON, IT WILL START WORKING NORMAL AGAIN. MY STEERING WHEEL SHAKES WHEN IDLING AND MAKES A TICKING NOISE. IT SAYS A RECALL SIMILAR TO MY ISSUE WAS ALREADY REPAIRED ON THE VEHICLE BUT I DO NOT BELIEVE IT WAS PROPERLY FIXED.

EVER SINCE I HAVE PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE I HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS WITH THE HEADLIGHTS. THE PASSENGER SIDE WOULD CONSTANTLY GO OUT. EVERYTIME I HIT A BUMP OR WOULD HIT IT. IT WOULD COME BACK ON. RECENTLY I REPLACED BOTH BULBS. THE PASSENGER SIDE HAS OFFICIALLY DIED. NOW THE DRIVER SIDE IS ACTING UP. I HAVE TO HIT BASICALLY EVERY MORNING TO TURN IT ON BEFORE I GO TO WORK. WHILE I AM DRIVING IT WILL GO OUT SPORADICALLY AND COME BACK ON.

I HAVE BEEN TO MANY FORUMS AND MANY MALIBU OWNERS ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE I AM WITH MY CAR. A LOT OF MONEY AND MANY HOURS WAISTED ON THIS ISSUE. MY RIGHT LOW BEAM HEAD LIGHT KEEPS BURNING OUT. I CHANGED THE BULB, THE ENTIRE HEADLIGHT, AND THE WIRE HARNESS, BUT THE LIGHT KEEPS BURNING OUT. ANNOYING ISSUE! TO BE ABLE TO REACH THE HEADLIGHT, YOU NEED TO TAKE OFF THE FRONT BUMPER. THERE IS NO OTHER WAY AROUND IT. I ALSO HAVE MY BRAKE LIGHTS THAT COME ON BY THEMSELVES. I CAN BE DRIVING WITH MY FOOT OFF OF THE BREAK AND IN MY REAR VIEW I CAN SEE MY BREAK LIGHTS LIT UP. VERY UNSAFE. PEOPLE THINK I AM BREAKING WHEN I AM NOT. THIS IS ALSO AN ON GOING ISSUES ON MALIBU'S MADE IN AND AROUND 2010. PLEASE HELP!

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL ESC LIGHT COMES ON AND SAYS SERVICE THEN ESC OFF. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE WITH THESE CARS. SEAT BELTS FAIL. SAFETY ISSUE. AND OUR WILL NOT START BECAUSE THE ANTI THEFT SYSTEM IS ACTIVATED FOR NO REASON. ALL OF THESE ARE CONSISTENT WITH SEVERAL OTHER COMPLAINTS. GM SHOULD BE ASHAMED FOR SELLING VEHICLES THAT FAIL. APPROXIMATELY 78,000 MILES. HOPEFULLY THEY WILL STEP UP AND CORRECT THESE PROBLEMS!!

THE ESC LIGHT COMES ON AND TELLS ME IT NEEDS SERVICED. WHEN THIS HAPPENS THE BRAKE LIGHTS STAY ON EVEN IF MY FOOT IS NOT ON THE BRAKE. IT ALSO HAS A PROBLEM WITH THE GEAR SHIFT WHEN TRYING TO PULL IT OUT OF PARK. THIS ALSO DISABLES MY CRUISE CONTROL. THIS ISSUE HAPPENS SOMETIMES AS SOON AS I START THE CAR OR AFTER DRIVING FOR A BIT. I'VE TAKEN THE CAR IN TO GET THE PROBLEM FIXED. THEY REPLACED THE BRAKE SENSOR AND THAT WORKED FOR A WEEK THEN THE ESC LIGHT CAME BACK ON AND THE BRAKE LIGHTS STAYED ON.

CAR NOTED POWER STEERING ON THE DASH. WENT TO ALL LOCAL MACHANICS FOR THEM TO SAY THAT IT'S A FUSE THAT NOONE CARRIES. EVERY SINCE I OWNED MY MALIBU IT HAS BEEN RANDOM THINGS THAT I AS A BUYER THINK CHEVY SHOULD HAVE FIXED. THE REAR TAIL LIGHT FOR EXAMPLE 6 OUT OF 10 MALIBU THIRD BRAKE LIGHT IS OUT WHY? IT'S A COSTLY FIX. BUT THIS WITH THE STEERING IS OUT OF THE BLUE AND LOOKS AS IF I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE LOOKING AT THESE YOUTUBE VIDEOS THEY ARE AN ISSUE.. THANKS FOR YOUR TIME

DRIVING CAR, PRESSED ON GAS PEDAL, CAR WILL NOT MOVE, HAD CAR TOWED TO DEALER, WAS INFORMED I NEEDED NEW TRANSMMISION, CAR ONLY HAD 69,000 MILES AND WARRANTY IS EXPIRED!!!!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CHEVROLET MALIBU. WHILE THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, THE RPMS INCREASED; HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE. THERE WAS ALSO AN ABNORMAL NOISE DETECTED FROM THE VEHICLE AND THE SPEEDOMETER WAS NOT DISPLAYING THE CORRECT SPEED. THE CONTACT ALSO MENTIONED THAT THE INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHTING FLASHED ON AND OFF. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO CARDINAL BUICK GMC (3800 IL-15, BELLEVILLE, IL 62226, (618) 233-0303) WHERE THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE ELECTRICAL CLUSTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AND NO FAILURE WAS FOUND WITH THE TRANSMISSION. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 40,000.

VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION WHEN POWER STEERING STARTED SHAKING LEFT TO RIGHT BUT THERE WERE NO WARNINGS ON THE DASH ABOUT POWER STEERING MALFUNCTIONS. TIRES ARE NEW AND AT THE PROPER AIR SETTINGS.
