2010 CHEVROLET MALIBU Complaints

MY 2010 MALIBU 2LT 6 CYLINDER ENGINE HAS A WAVE PLATE FAILURE. THIS CAUSES REVVING OF THE ENGINE NON-MOVEMENT LOW SPEEDS AND IT COMES AND GOES AS IT WANTS. GENERAL MOTORS HAS NOT INCLUDED THIS EVEN THOUGH THIS CAR WAS BUILT IN 2009. IN WHICH AN EXTENDED WARRANTY WAS ISSUED FOR THIS ECACT PROBLEM SEE GM BULLETIN # 14404 THIS DANGEROUS AND ALSO A VERY EXPENSIVE REPAR.

MY 2010 MALIBU HAS STARTED TO HAVE ALL SORTS OF STEERING ISSUES, I HAVE HAD A LOT OF THE SAME ISSUES OTHERS HAVE HAD, MY ESC AND POWER STEERING LIGHT CAME ON, I SHUT THE CAR OFF AND RESTARTED IT AND IT WORKED LIKE "NORMAL" BUT SINCE THEN THERE IS A LOT OF PLAY IN THE STEERING WHEEL, AND EVEN IF YOU ARE SITTING STILL, THE WHEEL ITSELF MAKES A SUDDEN LITTLE JERK TYPE MOVEMENT. IS THERE ANYTHING OUT THERE TO FIX THESE ISSUES???

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CHEVROLET MALIBU. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, THE THIRD BRAKE LIGHT FAILED TO ILLUMINATE. KARL CHEVROLET (1101 SE ORALABOR RD, ANKENY, IA 50021, (515) 299-4300) WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE, BUT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND PROVIDED THE CONTACT WITH CASE NUMBER: 8-433-300-9105. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 56,900.

"TAKATA RECALL" MY SEAT-BELT LIGHT STAYS ON WHEN I HAVE MY SEAT-BELT ON, MY ESC LIGHT KEEPS BLINKING AS WELL AS MY TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT. MY BRAKE LIGHTS STAY ON WHILE I AM DRIVING AND GO OFF WHEN I BRAKE.

MY BRAKE LIGHTS ARE ILLUMINATED WHEN I DO NOT PUSH ON THE BRAKE WHEN I DO PUSH ON THE BRAKE THEY DISAPPEAR I CAN'T PUT MY CRUISE CONTROL ON WHEN THIS HAPPENS THIS HAPPENS WHILE I'M DRIVING IT STARTED HAPPENING ABOUT A MONTH AGO AT A HUNDRED AND NINETY-EIGHT THOUSAND MILES BUT IT WOULD GO AWAY I WAS ABLE TO TURN THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON AND IT WOULD BE FINE NOW IT IS LIKE THAT AT ALL TIMES

POWER STEERING LOCKED WHEN DRIVING ONTO RAMP. CARS ALMOST HIT ME , I WAS ABLE TO GO TO CURB. CARS GOING FAST AND ALMOST HIT!

THE HEADLIGHTS KEEP GOING OUT. BULBS HAVE BEEN CHANGED REPEATEDLY, PIGTAIL WAS CHANGED IN THE WIRING, FUSE WAS CHANGED AND LIGHTS KEEP GOING OUT

MY STEERING WHEEL LOCKED WHILE I WAS DRIVING AND I WAS UNABLE TO STEER WHILE ON THE FREEWAY.

HEADLIGHT BULBS KEEP BURNING OUT AND RANDOM. PAID $432 TO CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP TO FIX PROBLEM AND IT IS STILL OCCURING.

THE DASH BOARD LIGHTS DO NOT ALWAYS COME ON WHEN THE CAR IS FIRST STARTED AND SOMETIME THEY GO OFF WHILE DRIVING. MY SON-IN-LAW TOLD ME TO PULL OVER, SHUT OFF THE MOTOR, PUMP THE FOOT FEED 3 TIMES AND THEN RESTART THE VEHICLE. THAT SEEMS TO WORK MOST OF THE TIME. BUT I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO DO THAT. I HAVE HAD THE HEAD LIGHTS GO OUT AT NIGHT WHEN I HIT A BUMP AND THEN THEY CAME BACK ON WHEN I HIT ANOTHER BUMP. THE CRUISE CONTROL DOES NOT ALWAYS WORK. I RECEIVED A NOTICE THAT MY TAILLIGHTS MAY NOT ALWAYS WORK AND TO LET THEM KNOW IF I HAVE THAT PROBLEM. WELL HELL I AM DRIVING THE CAR NOT RUNNING ALONG BEHIND IT!! DO I HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL SOMEONE REAR-END ME TO FIND OUT THAT THEY DON'T WORK? NOT SURE WHAT KIND OF AIRBAGS I HAVE IN THIS VEHICLE BUT WITH HISTORY OF ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS THAT MAY ALSO BE AN ISSUE.THESE PROBLEMS HAVE EXISTED FROM THE TIME THE CAR WAS NEW. I HAVE HAD IT IN TO DIFFERENT SHOPS TO HAVE IT CHECKED OUT AND EVERY TIME THEY TELL ME THEY THINK IT IS FIXED. I AM JUST WAITING FOR THE NEXT SHOE TO DROP. IS THE COMPETITION FOR CAR MAKERS SO VICIOUS THAT THEY NEED TO RUSH PRODUCTION AT THE COST OF CUSTOMER SAFETY TO GET VEHICLES OUT AHEAD OF THEIR COMPETITION? THEY CONTINUE TO PUT MORE BELLS AND WHISTLES ON THESE VEHICLES SO THEY CAN CHARGE US MORE UP FRONT AND FOR CONTINUOUS REPAIRS. THIS IS TOTALLY INSANE. GIVE ME BACK MY '57 CHEVY. NEVER HAD ANY OF THESE SAFETY ISSUES WITH THAT HONEY!!!
