2012 CHEVROLET MALIBU Complaints

THE PASSENGER LOW-BEAM HEAD LIGHT GOES OUT. IF I GO OVER A BUMP IT SOMETIMES COMES BACK ON. WENT TO GET LIGHT CHANGED AND SAME PROBLEM STARTED A WEEK OR 2 LATER. NOW BOTH LOW BEAM LIGHTS HAVE GONE OUT. ALL OTHER LIGHTS WORK FINE. THIS HAPPENS AT ANY TIME, STATIONARY OR IN MOTION.

STEERING MALFUNCTION. STEERING CLICKS AND JERKS WHILE DRIVING, STOPPED, AND IN PARK. STEERING FAILS WHILE DRIVING. TURNING CAR OFF AND BACK ON SOMETIMES RELEASES STEERING HOW MANY COMPLAINTS DOES IT TAKE? THERE ARE PAST RECALLS FOR THE SAME EXACT ISSUE!! NOT SAFE!

PASSENGER SIDE HEADLIGHT (LOW BEAM) HAS HAD TO BE REPLACED 4 TIMES IN THE LAST 2 YEARS.

HEATER CORE WAS REPLACED IN OCTOBER 2017 DUE TO ANTI-FREEZE LEAKING INSIDE OF CAR. THE ENTIRE DASHBOARD WAS REMOVED ($1050). IN OCTOBER 2018, THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT BEGAN TO APPEAR SO I HAD MY MECHANIC USE THE GM TESTING EQUIPMENT. TWO VALVE TIMING SOLENOIDS WERE REPLACED. THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT ISSUE CONTINUES AND WHEN IT DOES, THE BRAKE LIGHTS REMAIN ON. THE LIGHTS ONLY APPEAR WHEN DRIVING OR IF THE RADIO IS ON.

CAR WILL SHUT DOWN. HEAD LIGHTS STOP WORKING LESS THEN EVERY TWO MONTHS. FUSE INSIDE THE CAR WHERE TO CHARGE THE PHONE ISN'T WORKING BOTH FRONT AND MIDDLE. CAR DIES RANDOMLY AFTER BEING LEFT ON FOR A LITTLE WHILE. HOT AND COLD RATE STAYS ON COLD ALL DAY AND HAS THE AC UNIT BLOW OUT COLD AIR WHEN ON HEAT AND IF ON COLD IT JUST BLOWS AIR. CAR WONT DRIVE FASTER THEN 5 MPH AFTER HAVING THE BATERY REBOOTED DEPENDING ON IF TE CAR WAS ALLOWED TO SIT IDOL OR A WHILE. CAR WILL PLACE IT'S SELF IN SHUT DOWN DE TO ELECRICAL PROBLEMS. ONCE ONE STARTS ACTING UP THEY ALL START ACTING UP.

MY CAR CAN RUN FOR A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF TIME AND THE BATTERY WILL DIE RANDOMLY. MY HEADLIGHT CONSTANTLY CUT OFF AND INTERIOR MY HOT AN COLD LEVEL STAY DOWN ON A REGLAR DAY. THE AC BLOWS OUT COLD AIR WHEN ON HEAT OR IT WILL JUST BLOW AIR. MY CAR WILL JUST STIFEN UP AND NOT DRIVE AFTER RESTARTING THE BATTERY.
