WHEN I TRY TO PUT MY CAR IN PARK IT WILL NOT GO INTO THE PARK POSITION. I HAVE TO PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL WITH THE EMERGENCY BRAKES ON IN ORDER TO TURN THE CAR OFF. THE KEY CAN NOT BE REMOVED AND I HAVE TO DISCONNECT THE BATTERY. THE GEARS AUTOMATICALLY SLIDES FROM R TO L WITHOUT PRESSING THE BUTTON. I WAS TOLD THERE WAS A RECALL IN 2012 FOR THE SHIFT LEVER AND THAT THE PART EXPIRED A YEAR LATER WHEN THE PREVIOUS OWNER HAD IT. I RECENTLY PURCHASED THE VEHICLE 8 MONTHS AGO. I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR TO CHEVROLET AND THEY CONFIRM IT IS THE SHIFT LEVER. I AM REQUIRED TO PAY FOR THE FIX EVEN THOUGH THERE WAS A RECALL ALMOST 2 YEARS AGO WHICH APPEARS TO ME TO BE THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR

WHILE LEAVING THE PARKING LOT, MY POWER STEERING ALERT CAME ON. I TOOK MY CAR INTO THE MECHANIC, AND HE FOUND AN ERROR MESSAGE RELATING TO THE STEERING COLUMN IN MY CAR. HE SAID TO FIX THE PROBLEM, THEY WOULD NEED TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE STEERING COLUMN, ALIGN THE WHEELS/STEERING, ECT. ALL AT A COST OF ABOUT $873. MY CAR ISN'T EVEN 5 YEARS OLD YET, AND I'M FORCED TO REPLACE THE STEERING COLUMN? I SEE THAT GM HAS RECALLED THE 2004-2006, 2009 MALIBU MODELS, AND A NUMBER OF OTHER YEARS AND MODELS DUE TO FAULTY POWER STEERING. I DRIVE HOME TO SEE MY MOM WHO IS AT THE END OF LIFE WITH CANCER. THAT DRIVE IS ABOUT 130 MILES ONE WAY, MOSTLY INTERSTATE DRIVING AT 65MPH. IF I DON'T HAVE THIS FIXED, I COULD POSSIBLY LOOSE MY POWER STEERING, OR WORSE, LOOSE STEERING ALL TOGETHER, AND NOT ONLY INJURE OR KILL MYSELF, BUT OTHERS ON THE ROAD. SO I AM FORCED TO FIX THIS ISSUE, WHICH I FEEL SHOULD BE INCLUDED IN THE RECALLS. I DON'T THINK I SHOULD HAVE TO PAY ALMOST $1000 FOR A CAR THAT ISN'T EVEN 5 YEARS OLD, THAT I PAID $25,000+ FOR. RESOLUTION FOR ME WOULD BE TO BE REIMBURSED FOR THE WORK I'M GOING TO HAVE DONE, AND HAVE THE 2010 MALIBU'S ADDED TO THE RECALL LIST. THANK YOU *TR

319V019000 · Air Bags:frontal:driver Side:inflator Module
Jan 16, 2019
General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2010-2011 Chevrolet Malibu vehicles. In the event of a crash necessitating deployment of the driver frontal air bag, the air bag inflator may explode due to being overpressurized.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: If the inflator explodes, sharp metal fragments may strike the driver or other occupants resulting in serious injury or death.
Remedy: GM has notified owners, and dealers will replace the front driver air bag module, free of charge. The recall began February 25, 2019. Owners may contact GM customer service at 1-800-522-9559. GM's number for this recall is N182206630.

May 14, 2014
General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2004-2012 Chevrolet Malibu vehicles manufactured May 16, 2003, through October 11, 2012, 2004-2007 Malibu Maxx vehicles manufactured June 25, 2003, through April 5, 2007, 2005-2010 Pontiac G6 vehicles manufactured May 26, 2004, through January 4, 2010, and 2007-2010 Saturn Aura vehicles manufactured April 24, 2006, through May 26, 2009. In the affected vehicles, increased resistance in the Body Control Module (BCM) connection may result in voltage fluctuations in the Brake Apply Sensor (BAS) circuit. These fluctuations can cause one or more of these conditions: the brake lights to illuminate without the brake pedal being pushed; the brake lights to not illuminate when the pedal is pushed; difficulty disengaging the cruise control; moving the gear shifter out of the 'PARK' position without pushing the brake; and disablement of crash avoidance features such as traction control, electronic stability control, and panic braking assist features.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: Any of the above failure conditions increases the risk of a crash.
Remedy: GM will notify owners, and dealers will attach the wiring harness to the BCM with a spacer, apply dielectric lubricant to both the BCM and harness connector and the BAS and harness connector, and will relearn the brake pedal home position, free of charge. The manufacturer distributed an Interim letter to customers on July 14, 2014. The recall began on August 18, 2014. Owners may contact General Motors customer service at 1-800-222-1020 (Chevrolet), 1-800-762-2737 (Pontiac), 1-800-553-6000 (Saturn). GM's number for this recall is 13036.

12V460000 · Power Train:automatic Transmission:gear Position Indication (prndl)
Sep 18, 2012
General Motors (GM) is recalling certain model year 2007-2010 Saturn Aura and model year 2008-2010 Chevrolet Malibu and Pontiac G6 vehicles, equipped with a 4-speed automatic transmission. On these vehicles, the tabs on the transmission shift cable end may fracture and separate.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: If the tabs were to fracture and separate, the shift lever and the actual position of the transmission gear may not match. The driver would be able to move the shifter to 'PARK' and remove the ignition key, but the transmission gear may not be in 'PARK.' The vehicle may not be able to be restarted and the vehicle could roll away after the driver has exited the vehicle, resulting in a possible crash without prior warning.
Remedy: GM will notify owners, and dealers will install a retainer over the cable end or replace the shift cable as necessary. This service will be performed free of charge. Notification to owners began on on November 9, 2012. Owners were instructed to not bring their vehicles for repair until January 2013. Owners may contact General Motors at 1-800-521-7300.
