2010 CHEVROLET MALIBU Complaints

THE CAR WAS WORKING FINE UNTIL ONE MORNINGI GOT A MESSAGE AS I WAS DRIVING UP A HILL THAT THE ENGINE POWER WAS REDUCED AND THE ESC WAS ACTIVE. THE CAR BEGAN TO SHAKE AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE OVER 20MPH

COMPLETE LOSS OF POWER STEERING , WHILE DRIVNG , STEERING WHEEL CONSTANTLY SHAKING BY ITSELF. ALSO REPLACING HEADLIGHTS AN BRAKE LIGHTS EVERY COUPLE MONTHS.

MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN GIVING ME ISSUES FOR THE PAST MONTH OR TWO WITH THE ECS TRACTION LIGHT THAT KEEPS COMING ON . I HAVE HAD IT IN THE SHOP ON AND OFF AND THEY KEEP REPLACING SENSORS AND NOTHING HELPS. IT ALMOST FEELS LIKE THE ENGINE IS MISSING WHEN THE LIGHT COMES. ON. THE CAR ACTS LIKE IT IS IN SLOW MOTION AND IT CUT OFF ON ME STOPPED AT A REDLIGHT. NOTHING WOULD TURN ON I WAS ALMOST HIT BY CARS THAT WERE COMING BEHIND ME. NOTHING CAME ON AT ALL NO LIGHTS IT WOULD NOT TURN OVER. APPARENTLY ALL MALIBU'S ARE HAVING THIS SAME ISSUE SINCE 2005 MODELS UP TO 2015 MODELS. IT APPEARS IT IS THE CAM LINE THAT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED MINE IS BROKEN AND THE WIRES ARE FRAYED ACCORDING TO THE CODE THAT IS BEING PUT OUT. THIS SHOULD HAVE BECOME A RECALL FOR ALL OF THESE MALIBU'S. A LIFE OR REALLY BAD ACCIDENT COULD OCCUR. I WAS TOLD THAT CHEVROLET DOES NOT KNOW HOW TO FIX THIS THAT IS WHY THERE IS NO RECALL. TO REPAIR THIS IF IT IS REPAIRABLE COULD BE IN THE THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS. I WONT PAY IT I WILL TRADE MY CAR IN FOR A FOREIGN VEHICLE. I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN A CHEVROLET PERSON BUT NOT ANYMORE. I FEEL LET DOWN THAT NO ONE IS LISTENING AND THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. THANK YOU

"TAKATA RECALL WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY STREET MY STEERING LOCKED UP AND LIGHT CAME ON THE STEERING WOULD NOT WORK

WHILE DRIVING ON BUSY HIGHWAY THE POWER STEERING LIGHT AND ESC LIGHT COMES ON AND THERE WAS LOSS OF POWER STEERING. IT BECAME VERY HARD FOR MY DAUGHTER TO TURN THE WHEEL. AFTER STOPPING AND TURNING OFF ENGINE, SHE RESTARTED AND GOT THE POWER STEERING BACK BUT THE STEERING WHEEL VIBRATED AND MOVED ON IT'S OWN. LATER THAT WEEK THE POWER STEERING WENT OUT WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND IT HAS NOT COME BACK. I'M THANKFUL SHE WASN'T HURT AND THE NUMBERS OF THE EXACT SAME COMPLAINT ON THIS CAR IS GETTING RIDICULOUS. THE MANUFACTURERS NEED TO STEP UP AND DO THE RIGHT THING.

DEFECTIVE DOOR LATCHES. BOTH DRIVER SIDE FRONT AND BACK DOOR PROBLEMS SINCE I PURCHASED MY 2010 CHEVROLET MALIBU BACK IN 2012. DRIVER DOOR WOULD NOT OPEN OR NOT SHUT. CONTACTED GM TWICE AND NO ASSISTANCE FROM GM. I PURCHASED A AFTERMARKET DOOR LATCH AND REPLACED THE DRIVER DOOR LATCH IN JAN 2018 AND HAVE NO MORE PROBLEM SINCE. DRIVER BACK DOOR I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO OPEN SINCE 2015 AND BECAUSE THE BACK DOOR WONT OPEN, THERE IS NO WAY TO REPLACE THE LATCH. IF A FIRE OR ACCIDENT HAPPENS THERE IS NO EXIT FROM DRIVERS SIDE BACK DOOR. WITHOUT WARNING ON A 7 YEAR OLD VEHICLE, THE TRANSMISSION FAILED IN AUG 2017 136000 MILES. EXPENSIVE REPLACEMENT.

TAKATA RECALL. WHEN CAR IS RUNNING I HAVE STEERING FAILURE. HARD TO TURN THE STEERING WHEEL. ALMOST HAD AN ACCIDENT. ALARM SOUNDS AND ON DASH IT SAYS POWER STEERING AND ESC OFF AND SERVICE ESC.

MY 2010 MALIBU HEADLIGHTS WERE REPLACED FIVE TIMES IN A YEAR. I PAID OVER 1000.00 JUST TO HAVE A 15.00 LIGHT BULB REPLACED. SOMETHING IS HAPPENING BECAUSE IT OCCURS ONLY ON THE PASSENGER SIDE ONLY. THERE SHOULD BE SOME TYPE OF RECALL OR REIMBURSEMENT. AS OF TODAY. I CAN NOT AFFORD TO SPEND 200.00 JUST TO GO OUT AGAIN IN A WEEK. I AM DRIVING WITH ONE LIGHT BECAUSE I REFUSE TO FIX IT UNTIL GM DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. THIS IS INSANE AND SOMETHING NEEDS TO GET DONE IMMEDIATELY.

MY 2010 CHEVY MALIBU IS HAVING FUEL SYSTEM ISSUES. THE VEHICLE IS LEAKING GAS FROM THE FUEL TANK LOCATED IN THE BACK OF THE VEHICLE NEAR THE EXHAUST SYSTEM. THE VEHICLE TENDS TO LEAK WHEN IT IS NOT IN MOTION.

POWER STEERING WARNING INDICATOR AND OTHER INDICATION ON HARD. MANUAL SAYS CONTACT DEALER. DEALER SAYS THIS VIN NOT IN RECALL WHICH WAS ISSUED.
