2013 Chevrolet Malibu

AFTER DRIVING THE CAR WITH THE A/C ON, SHUTTING THE CAR OFF AND RESTARTING THE HEAT WILL COME ON EVEN THO THE A/C IS STILL ON AND YOU CANNOT GET THE HEAT TO STOP. TOOK IT TO DEALER AS IT WAS BLOWING FULL FORCE HEAT AND THEY COULD NOT GET IT TO STOP. NO ONE CAN FIGURE IT OUT. GM ENGINEERS ARE BAFFLED BY IT ALSO.. ONLY HAPPENS WHEN YOU HAVE OR ARE USING THE A/C. *TR

I WAS RIDING IN THE CAR WITH MY WIFE AND COUSIN HEADING TO HER BROTHERS HOUSE. WE HAD JUST DROVE FROM OUT OF TOWN AFTER VISITING SOME FAMILY MEMBERS AND WAS TAKING MY COUSIN BACK HOME. WHILE DRIVING I NOTICE THE CAR ELECTRICAL SYSTEM ACTING UP IT WOULD SAY I NEEDED TO PUT AIR IN THE TIRE OR THE BACK TIRE WAS NOT FUNCTIONING CORRECTLY. IT ALSO WOULD SAY I NEEDED TO PUT MY SEAT BELT ON WHEN IT WAS ON. BUT THIS WAS NOT MY BIGGEST CONCERN MY WIFE WHILE DRIVING RAN OFF THE ROAD A STRUCK A TREE HEAD ON. HAD SHE HAD BEEN DRIVING FASTER THEN WHAT SHE WAS GOING I FELL AS IF SHE WOULD HAVE BEEN SEVERELY INJURED. THE AIRBAGS NEVER CAME OUT AND THIS WAS A CONCERN BECAUSE WHO KNOWS HOW MANY VEHICLES ARE AFFECTED BY THIS. I THANK GOD THAT HER INJURIES WERE NOT THAT SERVE AS WELL AS MY COUSIN AND I, ALTHOUGH PAIN WILL HEAL THE PAIN OF LOSING A LOVE ONE WILL NEVER HEAL. SO I ASK THAT YOU LOOK INTO BECAUSE THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN, I KNOW IF HAD MY WIFE BEEN TOLD THAT HER AIRBAGS MAY OR MAY NOT DEPLOY SHE WOULD HAVE NEVER BROUGHT THE CAR....... *TR

LIGHTS DIMMED INSIDE THE CAR ON DASHBOARD AND INDICATOR LIGHTS FOR RADIO AND CLIMATE CONTROL COULD NOT TELL IF THE A/C WAS ON AND ALSO THE FAN INDICATOR LIGHTS WERE NOT VISIBLE. AFTER STOPPING CHECKED THE VOLTAGE AND NOTICED IT WAS LOWER THEN USUAL. IT'S LIKE THERE WAS A DRAIN ON ELECTRICITY SOMEWHERE WHILE DRIVING THE BATTERY SHOULD BE CHARGING I NOTICED THIS 3 TIMES THIS MONTH. LAST TIME TODAY 10/29/2016 WHILE DRIVING ON HWY 288 AT 60MPH. *TR

I PURCHASED MY 2013 MALIBU LS IN SEPTEMBER, 2013 AND HAVE BEEN HAVING NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS SINCE. DURING THE FIRST FEW WEEKS OF ME HAVING THE CAR MY REAR DEFROST WAS NOT WORKING PROPERLY AND MY CAR WOULD SMELL LIKE AN ROTTEN EGG WHICH IT STILL DOES. I TOOK THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND OF COURSE THEY FOUND NOTHING WRONG. A FEW MONTHS LETTER MY BRAKES STATED GRINDING WHENEVER THE CAR WAS IN REVERSE (STILL DOES). THE DEALERSHIP FOUND NOTHING WRONG, BUT STATED THEY HAD SMOOTHED MY BRAKES. MY CAR HAS CUT OFF A TOTAL OF SEVEN TIMES AND THE DEALERSHIP FOUND NOTHING WRONG. SO I CALLED AND SPOKE WITH THE HEAD PERSON IN CHARGE OF THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND WAS TOLD IT COULD BE MY COMPUTER, BUT NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE TO CHECK THE COMPUTER. MY CAR LOSES POWER WHILE DRIVING AND HAS EVEN SPED UP ON ITS OWN. MY BRAKES, BRAKE HARD AS IF THEY?RE GETTING STUCK AT TIMES. WHEN I TURN ON THE CAR HOT AIR BLOWS AT FULL FORCE AND WILL NOT CUT OFF UNTIL THE CAR IS TURNED OFF. THE GLOVE BOX LIGHT SHINES IN THE FLOOR AND THE SEATBELT WOULD NOT LATCH. THE BEST PART OF IT ALL, WHILE THE DEALERSHIP HAD M CAR ONE OF THE WORKERS HIT SOMETHING, SO THEY HAD TO REMOVE MY FRONT BUMPER TO PAINT IT AND DID NOT PLACE IT ON CORRECTLY. MY CAR IS EXPERIENCING ALL OF THE ISSUES THAT ARE OUT ON RECALL, BUT I?M ALWAYS TOLD THE RECALL IS NOT FOR MY CAR. GM NEEDS TO TAKE FULL RESPONSIBILITY AND CORRECT THE ISSUES OR BUY BACK MY CAR. I REFUSE TO CONTINUE TO PAY FOR SOMETHING THAT IS NOT WORTH IT. *TR
