2010 CHEVROLET MALIBU Complaints

FIRST OF ALL I AM A MUSICIAN AND THIS CAR HAS CUT MY FINGERS BADLY ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. ONCE I WAS AT AN AUDITION AND BLOOD WAS EVERYWHERE. YOU KNOW ABOUT THIS PROBLEM CAUSE THE WEB SAYS YOU HAVE RECEIVED MANY MANY MANY COMPLAINTS. LISTEN IF THE CHROME TAPE ON DOOR HANDLES INSIDE AND OUT PEELS AND CUTS THEM DON'T ALLOW AUTO MAKERS TO USE IT PLEASE! WHEN YOU ARRIVE IN FULL DRESS A SUIT OR NICE CLOTHES AND YOU OPEN YOUR DRIVERS DOOR OR PASSENGER AND THE TAPE SLICES YOUR FINGER LIKE A MEAT SLICER AND BLOOD IS EVERYWHERE. I WAS SET TO PLAY MUSIC TONIGHT AND NOW I CAN'T. I AM EXTREMELY UPSET WHY LET THEM KEEP USING A PRODUCT THAT PEOPLE KEEP COMPLAINING TO YOU ABOUT?

TAKATA RECALL WHILE PULLING OUT OF A PARKING SPACE MY POWER STEERING WENT OUT. ALMOST HIT ANOTHER CAR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CHEVROLET MALIBU. WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH, THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE STEERING WHEEL WAS DIFFICULT TO TURN AND THE TRACTION POWER INDICATOR ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE CONTACT PULLED THE VEHICLE OVER, TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED THE VEHICLE, AND THE POWER STEERING BEGAN TO OPERATE NORMALLY. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN TO THE CONTACT'S RESIDENCE. THE DEALER WAS CONTACTED (KENDALL AUTO MALL, 15700 IDAHO CENTER BLVD, NAMPA, ID 83687) AND STATED THAT NO RECALLS WERE ASSOCIATED WITH THE VEHICLE; HOWEVER, THE VIN SEARCH REVEALED ONE RECALL FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V252000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL, EXTERIOR LIGHTING, SERVICE BRAKES, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, HYDRAULIC); HOWEVER, THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 80,000. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

PERIODICALLY, UPON INITIAL SWITCH-ON, POWER STEERING / ESC CONTROL ERROR MESSAGES FLASH AND POWER STEERING IS INOPERATIVE (VERY DIFFICULT TO TURN). SWITCHING OFF IGNITION AND RESTARTING USUALLY CLEARS THE PROBLEM. IN ADDITION, WHILE IDLING (STOP LIGHT) THE STEERING WHEEL PULSES OR VIBRATES SLOWLY WITH NO HANDS ON THE WHEEL. THIS SEEMS TO BE GETTING WORSE WITH TIME; AND HAS OCCASIONALLY HAPPENED WHILE THE CAR WAS DRIVING. TAKING FOR REPAIR TOMORROW.
