2013 CHEVROLET MALIBU Complaints

CAR RANDOMLY LOSSES POWER AT ANY SPEED. DURING THIS TIME, I AM UNABLE TO CONTROL THE CAR. THE POWER STEERING IS OFF. THIS HAPPENED TO MY WIFE AS SHE MADE A LEFT TURN ON A GREEN LIGHT ON BELL ROAD, AZ (A BUSY ROAD). THERE IS NO WAY THAT THIS SHOULD BE TAKEN LIGHTLY.

IN ADDITION, THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND BATTERY CHARGE, STABILITY TRACK, AND SERVICE POWER STEERING WARNING MESSAGES APPEARED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL DISPLAY. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE FAILURES OCCURRED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER, BUT THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DETERMINED.

THERE ARE PERIODS OF TIME WHEN I PUT MY TURN SIGNAL ON AND MY WHEEL LOCK UP, THE RADIO TURNS OFF AND ALL THE POWER SHUTS DOWN IN THE CAR. THE BRAKES FEEL LIKE THEY ARE LOCKING.

RADIO, INTERIOR LIGHTS, AND POWER STEERING STOPS WORKING WHEN I TURN ON MY SIGNAL LIGHTS OR SOMETIMES WHEN I'M JUST RIDING. IT SEEMS TO ALWAYS HAPPEN WHEN I'M GOING AT SPEEDS 40MPH AND ABOVE. IT'S VERY SCARY AND MY GIRLFRIEND WHOM IS PREGNANT WITH OUR CHILD HAS HAD THIS HAPPEN TO HER ON THE HIGHWAY.

MY DRIVER SEAT IS STUCK ALL THE WAY IN THE FULL RECLINE POSITION AND WONT GO BACK UP. I CONTACTED CHEVY DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME 1,400 TO BUY A WHOLE NEW SEAT. I DONT HAVE 1400 LAYING AROUND TO BUY A NEW WHOLE SEAT AND THAT IT TROUBLES ME THAT A WHOLE SEAT WOULD GO OUT WITH MY CAR WHEN IT HAS LESS THAN 45,000 MILES. NOW MY WIFE AND I ARE FORCED TO DRIVE A UNSAFE CAR BECAUSE NOT ONLY WE DON'T HAVE THAT KIND OF MONEY LAYING AROUND FOR A SEAT THAT SHOULDN'T EVEN BE BROKE AT 42000 MILES. IVE CONTACTED GM BUT THEY HAVE NOT CONTACTED ME BACK YET. I ALSO PAID 130 DOLLARS FOR THE DEALERSHIP TO TELL ME THAT I NEED A WHOLE NEW SEAT? I COULD HAVE TOLD THEM THAT. I HOPE I DON'T GET IN A ACCIDENT PROBABLY WONT HAVE A CHANCE WITH THE WAY THE SEAT IS SITTING SEAT BELT WONT WORK PROPERLY.

I WAS DRIVING TO WORK GOING ABOUT 45 TO 50 MILES PER HOUR ON THE HIGHWAY, THEN MY VEHICLE STALLED, VIBRATED, AND WOULDN'T GO PAST 30 MPH. REDUCED ENGINE POWER SIGNAL CAME ON AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT AND ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I THEN EXITED ONTO THE FEEDER AND COASTED TO WORK.

BUBBLING/RUST SPOT LOCATED NEAR FRONT GLASS ON HOOD OF THE CAR. (ONLY 3 YRS OLD).

REAR WINDOW GLASS IS DEFECTIVE. FROM THE MIDDLE OF THE GLASS DOWN AND ALL THE WAY ACROSS THE GLASS (LINE OF VIEW). DISTORTS THE VIEW WHEN LOOKING OUT OF THE GLASS, POSING A SAFETY CONCERN. THIS IS THE 3RD GLASS PUT IN MY CAR AND IT IS STILL VERY BAD. VIEW LOOKING OUT THE BACK WINDOW GIVES THE APPEARANCE THAT THE DRIVER IS INTOXICATED. ORIGINAL GLASS WAS FINE BUT THERE WAS AN ISSUE WITH THE METAL PART WHICH WAS GOING TO CAUSE THE REAR DEFROST TO STOP WORKING. THE GLASS THAT WAS REPLACED ON 11/4/16 HAD THE SAME DISTORTING AS THE GLASS THAT WAS REPLACED ON 11/18/16. MAKES LOOKING OUT THE BACK WINDOW TO BACK UP UNSAFE. THE DEALER CURRENTLY STILL HAS 2 OF THE 3 BACK WINDOWS ON HAND FROM THE VEHICLE.
