2012 CHEVROLET MALIBU Complaints

HEADLAMP HARNESS KEEPS BURNING CAUSING HEADLAMP TO FAIL TO ILLUMINATE. HAVE REPLACED MULTIPLE BULBS AS WELL AS BOTH HARNESSES WITHIN THE LAST 6 MONTHS AND AGAIN, HARNESS HAS BURNT AND MY LOW BEAM HEADLAMPS DO NOT WORK. READING SIMILAR COMPLAINTS, I BELIEVE IT HAS TO DO WITH THE DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHT FEATURE. I'VE NOTICED THE ISSUE BOTH WHEN THE VEHICLE IS MOVING AND WHEN IT'S STATIONARY. WHILE THERE HASN'T BEEN A FIRE AS A RESULT OF THIS ISSUE YET, I'M SURE IT'S JUST A MATTER OF TIME.

MY RIGHT SIDE LOW BEAM KEEPS GOING OUT. I HAVE REPLACED THE BULB 5 TIMES THIS YEAR. I'VE REPLACED THE WIRING HARNESSES FOR THE LIGHT BULB. I REALLY DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THIS KEEPS FALLING

I HAVE CHANGED MY PASSENGER HEADLIGHT BULB SEVERAL TIMES AND IT STILL DOES NOT WORK EVERY TIME I HAVE TO FIX IT I AM CHARGED $100.00 OR MORE. ALSO I HAVE HAD TO CHANGE THE MOTOR TO MY DRIVERS SIDE WINDOW TWICE. THIS ALSO ALSO HAPPENED TO MY 2000 CHEVY MALIBU. IT SEAMS LIKE THIS MODEL HAS MANY ISSUES.

MY DRIVER SIDE LIGHT CONTINUES TO KEEP GOING OUT AFTER A COUPLE WEEKS AND THE BULB IS NOT BLOWING THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE CHEVY MALIBU DEFINITELY NEEDS TO BE RECALLED AND FIXED BECAUSE IF YOU DON'T HAVE HEADLIGHTS CAN CAUSE A BAD ACCIDENT. IF YOU HIT A BUMP IT GOES OUT. I WAS ON A BACK ROAD AT NIGHT AND BOTH LIGHTS WENT OUT ALMOST CAUSING ME TO CRASH

I STARTED DRIVING THE CAR WITHIN FIVE MINUTES AFTER I PRESS ON THE BRAKES THE CAR STARTED JOLTING AND AFTER THAT IT START STALLING TRY TO USE THE CRUISE CONTROL ON A HIGHWAY MAXIMUM MILEAGE PER HOUR WAS 55 WILL NOT ENGAGE TURN AROUND PARK THE CAR KEPT THEM STALLING IN BETWEEN ONCE THE CAR PARKED LIGHTS ON THE DASH POPPED UP CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND ESC LIGHT POPPED UP THE CAR WAS NOT MOVING AND MOTOR STARTED SHAKING TRY TO PUT THE FOOT ON THE GAS GENTLY AND IT STARTED STALLING AGAIN. CAR BEEN PARKED EVER SINCE.

DRIVER SIDE LOW BEAM KEEPS SHORTING OUT EVEN AFTER REPLACING BULBS AND HARNESS. WINDSHIELD WIPERS BUSHING BROKE IN MIDDLE OF RAINSTORM ON 6/7/19 IN SUFFOLK VA ON INTERSTATE 664 SOUTH BOUND

THE SEAT COMES OFF THE METAL MOLDING WHILE CAR IS IN MOTION AND WHEN YOU TRY TO ADJUST THE SEAT IT ADJUSTS LOPSIDED AND UNEVEN .

THE PLUG TO THE LEFT HEADLIGHT CONTINUES TO MELT AND SHORT THE HEADLIGHT OUT. IT IS NOT THE BULB, BUT THE PLUG IN SYSTEM FOR THE HEADLIGHTS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 CHEVROLET MALIBU. WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS WOULD NOT ILLUMINATE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS WERE REPLACED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE HEADLIGHT CONNECTORS WERE FAULTY AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONNECTORS WERE REPLACED, BUT THE FAILURES CONTINUED. BOB BELL CHEVROLET (1230 BEL AIR RD, BEL AIR, MD) AND THE MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 65,000.

I WAS IN A TRAFFIC ACCIDENT AND WAS BIT ON THE DRIVER SIDE. THE IMPACT PUSHED IN THE DOORS AND THE SIDE CURTAIN AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. I WAS TRAVELING APPROX 30 MPH AND THE CAR RAN A STOP SIGN ON A CITY STREET.
