WHEN DRIVING OR PARKED THE WHOLE DASH BOARD WILL CUT OUT COMPLETELY RESULTING IN LOSS OF SPEEDOMETER, GAS GAUGE, TEMP GAUGE AND TACH. SOMETIMES IT WILL COME BACK ON SOMETIMES IT DOES NOT FOR DAYS, HAVE TO KEEP A SPEEDOMETER APP ON MY PHONE WHILE DRIVING NOW. GM SEEMS TO BE IGNORING THIS ISSUE AS THEY DO MOST ELECTRICAL ISSUES, I TRADED IN A 2000 IMPALA WITH ELECTRICAL ISSUES JUST TO GET ANOTHER GM CAR WITH ELECTRICAL ISSUES AT A HIGHER PRICE. I HAVE CALLED MULTIPLE DEALERSHIPS AND NON OF THEM SEEMS TO HAVE AN IDEA OF WHAT IT COULD BE WHICH TELLS ME GM IS NOT EVEN TRYING TO FIND A ROOT CAUSE FOR THE ISSUE, THEY ARE MORE THAN WILLING TO LET ME BRING IT IN AND HAVE THE WHOLE SYSTEM LOOKED OVER AT MY COST THOUGH. HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH THIS FOR OVER A YEAR NOW

2013 CHEVY MALIBU ELECTRICAL PROBLEM. ALL DASH ELECTRICAL WENT OUT AND KEY COULD NOT BE REMOVED FROM IGNITION. NO SPEDOMETER, GAS GUAGE, TEMP, ETC. DRAINED BATTERY AND NEW BATTERY.

AS I AM DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, THE ENTIRE DASHBOARD GOES BLACK, THEN IT JUST LIGHTS BACK UP AS IF I WERE JUST STARTING THE CAR...ALL OTHER FUNCTIONS REGULARLY WHILE THE DASHBOARD BLACKS OUT...THE RADIO STILL WORKS. THIS HAPPENS SPORADUCALLY MEANING THERE IS NO RHYME OR REASON TO IT..I AM SCARED IT WILL CATCH ON FIRE.

I RECEIVED A MESSAGE ON MY INTERIOR SCREEN THAT AIR SHUT OFF DUE TO ENGINE OVERHEATING YESTERDAY. THREE WEEKS AGO, MY SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND I HAD AUTOZONE RUN A DIAGNOSTIC TEST AND IT SAID TO REPLACE RADIATOR. THIS CAR IS A 2013 CHEVY MALIBU AND I KEEP IT IN GOOD CONDITION.

3/19/19 I WENT IN FOR AN OIL/FILTER CHANGE AND A "PREMIER ENGINE OIL SERVICE" (WHICH WAS EXPLAINED AS A ENGINE FLUSH TO MY WIFE). SATURDAY MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ACTIVATES AND I PUT A CODE READER ON AND A P0010 (INTAKE CAMSHAFT POSITION ACTUATOR SOLENOID CONTROL CIRCUIT). AFTER RESEARCHING I SAW THIS HAS BEEN A RECURRING PROBLEM ON OTHER MALIBU MODELS BUT DID NOT SEE ANYTHING FOR MY VIN, SHOULD I HANDLE HIS ON MY OWN OR REFER BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP TO DETERMINE IF THIS IS THEIR ERROR?

IF THE KEY IS REMOVED WITHOUT THE TRANSMISSION IN PARK, THE VEHICLE MAY ROLLAWAY AS OCCUPANTS ARE EXITING , INCREASING THE RISK OF INJURY

THE OIL VACUUM PUMP BURST OPEN CAUSING A MAJOR OIL LEAK. NO PRIOR OIL LEAKS OR DAMAGES TO VEHICLE.

THE CLUSTER PANEL WILL POWER OFF WHILE DRIVING AND STAY OFF. AFTER FUSES AND BULBS ARE REPLACED, SAME ISSUE PERSISTS. WHEN PASSENGER SEAT IS IN REAR POSITION, THE CLUSTER WILL FLICKER MOMENTARILY. THIS RESULT WILL TRIGGER RANDOMLY WHETHER STATIONARY OR IN MOTION.

IN THE LAST 2 YEARS I HAVE LOST MY BREAKS DUE TO THE BREAK BOOSTER GOING OUT IN MY CAR NOW AGAIN LAST NIGHT I LOST MY BREAKS AGAIN DUE TO THIS ISSUES I IS A VERY BIG ISSUES I COULD HAVE BEEN INVOLVED IN A ACCIDENT OR KILLED SOMEONE I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHY THIS KEEPS HAPPENING BECAUSE TO ME THIS IS A BIG SAFETY ISSUE.

13 MALIBU EVERY DAY AT LEAST TWICE THE RADIO WILL FLICKER OFF AND ON MULTIPLE TIMES AND THEN ONCE I HIT THE BRAKES AND MAKE A TURN THE BRAKE WILL GO SOLID AND THE STEERING WHEEL JERKS HARD ALL AT THE SAME TIME AND THEN ALL MY DASH LIGHTS STOP WORKING. THEN IT WILL ALL POWER ON AND WORK LIKE NEW A FEW SECONDS AFTER. BUT ONCE THE CAR IS PARKED AND CAR IS TURNED OFF IT WILL NOT ALLOW ME TO TAKE THE KEY OUT. AND THEN ONCE YOU TRY TO TURN THE KEY IN THERE IS NO POWER AT ALL. NO LIGHTS. NO CLICKS. NO RADIO. NO NOTHING. COMPLETELY DEAD CAR. BUT THEN IF YOU UNPLUG THE BATTERY FOR 10 MINS AND PLUG IT BACK IN... THEN THE KEY WILL COME OUT AND/OR WILL TURN ON AND THE CAR IS WORKING FINE AGAIN FOR MAYBE A TRIP OR TWO AND THEN IT DOES THIS AGAIN. EVERY SINGLE DAY! NO CODES SHOW ON THE DASH NO LIGHTS OF ANYTHING WRONG AT ALL. HAS BEEN DOING THIS FOR ALMOST A MONTH NOW. I HAVE ALMOST HIT MULTIPLE PEOPLE BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE!!! HELP!!! LOCAL CHEVY DEALER AND ALSO A LOCAL BODY SHOP CANNOT FIND THE ISSUE. I HAVE A 5 YEAR OLD AND I'M TERRIFIED TO TAKE HER ANYWHERE WITH ME AND IT'S OUR ONLY CAR AND I OWE A LOT ON IT. ONLY HAD IT ALMOST 2 YEARS. I NEED HELP

ORIGINALLY TAKEN IN FOR WATER PUMP REPLACEMENT. NOW STALLS AND DIES RANDOMLY AND GIVES CODES FOR VARIOUS WRONGS, MOST OFTEN FOR WATER IN FUEL LINE. THERE IS NO WATER IN THERE. THE WATER PUMP WENT OUT WHILE I WAS PARKED, WHEN I TRIED TO LEAVE, THAT'S WHEN IT DIED.

WHILE DRIVING MY 2013 CHEVY MALIBU ON THE HIGHWAY & TURNPIKE, I WAS DRIVING APPROX 60-70 MILES AND HOUR AND THEN OUT OF NOWHERE THE VEHICLE DECREASED SPEED DOWN TO 30 MPH AND ALSO HAD ME CAUSE AN ACCIDENT WITH THE DRIVERS BEHIND ME. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT THEN CAME ON AND A MESSAGE "ENGINE POWER HAS BEEN REDUCED". I WAS ABLE TO PULL THE CAR OVER; HOWEVER, THIS IS A DANGER AND SHOULD BE RESOLVED AS STILL THIS CONTINUES TO OCCUR SINCE I HAVE CONTACTED GENERAL MOTORS AND ADVISED OF THE SAFETY ISSUE. STILL HAVE NOT SEEN A RECALL ON THIS ISSUE YET WHICH I WAS SHOCKED. I ASKED THE GENTLEMAN IF THERE HAVE BEEN OTHER COMPLAINTS AND HE STATED YES. SO I AM VERY SHOCKED THAT THIS ISSUE HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED. MY VEHICLE NOW IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND STILL MECHANICS DO NOT KNOW WHAT IS WRONG AND CAN NOT FIX THIS ISSUE. I DO NOT FEEL THAT I HAVE TO PAY FOR PARTS THAT THIS VEHICLE DOES NOT WHILE THEY TRY TO PINPOINT THE PROBLEM. LITERALLY THE MECHANIC AT DAY CHEVROLET DURING THE DIAGNOSTIC JUST SAID TO LETS START SOMEWHERE AND SEE IF THAT RESOLVES THE ISSUE. I DON'T BELIEVE I SHOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR PARTS THAT MAY OR MAY NOT RESOLVE THE ISSUE. SINCE THEN I NOW HAVE MORE LIGHTS POPPING UP REGARDING TRACTION STABILITY, PARKING BREAK (WHICH WAS REPLACED AND DID NOT FIX THE ISSUE) TRACK CONTROL, ETC HAVE COME UP AND SEEMS TO HAVE DISABLED MY ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. COULD SOMEONE PLEAS CONTACT ME IF THERE IS A SOLUTION FOR THIS IF SOMEONE IS AWARE OF WHAT PART OR PARTS WILL FIX THIS DEFECT.

THE SUNROOF ELECTRICAL SWITCH MALFUNCTIONS. AFTER OPENING, THE ROOF DOES NOT CLOSE PROPERLY AND STAYS PARTIALLY OPENED.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD THE STEERING WHEEL WANTS TO STICK TO THE LEFT, THEN WILL BREAK FREE. I TOOK IT IN TO GET IT CHECKED OUT THOUGHT IT MIGHT NEED AN ALIGNMENT OR SOMETHING BUT THE SHOP SAID EVERYTHING WAS GOOD, ALIGNMENT AND TIRES WERE FINE, AND THEY HAD NO REASON AS TO WHY IT WOULD BE DOING THAT.

MULTIPLE TIMES WHILE SINCE I'VE HAD IT IT HAS REDUCED ENGINE POWER ( STABILTRAK) ON ME WHILE DRIVING. JUST RECENTLY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON WITH CODES READING FOR CAMSHAFT ACTUATORS FAILING AND PCM FAILING. THE CAR CHUGS WILL DRIVING AND HAS EVEN DIED WHILE OPERATING.

WHEN DRIVING THE POWER STEERING QUITS WORKING AND YOU CAN'T STEER THE CAR. YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN IT WILL HAPPEN, DOES IT WITHOUT WARNING. ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO TURN THE VEHICLE. ELECTRIC POWER STEERING AND I HAVE FOUND HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ONLINE FROM OTHER OWNERS BUT THIS VIN DOESN'T HAVE THE RECALL

WHEN DRIVING MY CARS ELECTRIC SYSTEM WILL SHUT DOWN. RADIO GOES OFF THEN LIGHTS ON THE DASH GO CRAZY AND STEERING WHEEL JERKS REAL HARD AND LOSS OF STEERING FOR A FEW SECONDS THEN IT ALL COMES BACK ON.

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLES ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, LIGHTS, RADIO DASH START TO INTERMITTENTLY GO OFF THEN COME BACK ON. WHILE THIS IS HAPPENING THE STEERING SUDDENLY FROZE UP WHILE MAKING A TURN INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. THIS NEARLY CAUSED A HEAD ON COLLISION WITH ONCOMING CARS. THAT SAME NIGHT WHEN I PULLED UP IN FRONT OF MY HOUSE THE HEADLIGHTS AND INSTRUMENT CLUSTER KEPT FLASHING ON AND OFF.

I HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THIS CAR SINCE I BOUGHT IT, LOSS OF BATTERY LIFE, HAD IT TO MULTIPLE DEALERSHIPS, NOBODY CAN FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM, NOTICED A BURNING SMELL AT ONE TIME, THE TRUNK HAS A TERRIBLE REALLY WEIRD SMELL, I STILL OWE A LOT ON THIS CAR AND DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO FIX IT OR GET ANOTHER ONE, ONLY HAD APPROX. 50,000 MILES WHEN IT FIRST STARTED HAVING PROBLEMS, CALLED GM, DEALSHIP REPLACED BATTERY, SAME THING KEEPS HAPPENING, WHEN I'M DRIVING AT NIGHT AND THE BATTERY CHARGE IS LOW MY HEADLIGHTS GO EXTREMELY DIM VERY QUICKLY, THIS CAR IS VERY DANGEROUS AND HAS LEFT ME STRANDED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. THE CAR WILL JUST DIE RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC WITH NO WARNING, COMPLETELY DEAD,

CAR HAS BEEN PROPERLY MAINTAINED WITH ALL SCHEDULED SERVICE BEING PERFORMED.

FOR ABOUT A YEAR NOW S 'SERVICE AIRBAG' LIGHT HAS BEEN ON, NO ONE WHO TESTS IT CAN SEE WHAT THE ISSUE IS. WHEN ANYONE SITS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT, THE DASH TURNS OFF, ALL LIGHTS ON IT, STEREO, ALL GAUGES CEASE TO FUNCTION AS WELL AS THE A/C. HAS BEEN TAKEN TO NUMEROUS DEALERSHIPS & SHOPS WITH NO CONCLUSION BESIDES THAT 'IT'S AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE' THAT SHOULD BE RECALLED. I NOTICE MANY PEOPLE HAVE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM ISSUES WITH THIS MAKE & MODEL WHEN I SEARCHED FOR A RECALL, ASTONISHING THAT NOTHING IS BEING DONE & VINS EXPERIENCING THE PROBLEM AREN'T ON THE RECALL LISTS. THE AIRBAGS IN THE CAR ARE FINE ACCORDING TO MECHANICS, NO REASON THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT SHOULD APPEAR & INCREDIBLY FRUSTRATING THAT I CANT HAVE A PASSENGER IN MY VEHICLE, ESPECIALLY DURING ARIZONA SUMMER WEATHER, NOT TO MENTION THE DANGER POSED BY NO GAUGES BEING VISIBLE
