WHEN SHIFTER WAS PLACED INTO PARK IN A PUBLIC PARKING LOT, THE VEHICLE DISPLAYED A "SHIFT TO PARK" ERROR AND WOULD NOT TURN OFF. THE ISSUE CONTINUED DESPITE TWO DEALER REPAIR ATTEMPTS. I HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO SHUT OFF THE VEHICLE IN MY GARAGE, IN MY DRIVEWAY, AND AT NUMEROUS PUBLIC PARKING LOTS. LATER, THE VEHICLE SMACKED THE BRAKES WITHOUT DRIVER INPUT WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND DISPLAYED A "STABILITRAK" ERROR. WHEN I PULLED INTO A PARKING LOT AND SHIFTED TO PARK, IT AGAIN DISPLAYED THE "SHIFT TO PARK" ERROR AND WOULD NOT TURN OFF. EVENTUALLY I WAS ABLE TO TURN OFF THE VEHICLE. WHEN I RESTARTED IT, IT DISPLAYED "STABILITRAK" ERROR AND "POWER STEERING" ERROR. I DISABLED THE STABILITRAK SYSTEM IN ORDER TO GET BACK ON THE ROAD BECAUSE I WAS IN A REMOTE AREA WITH NO PLACE TO GET THE CAR FIXED. WHILE DRIVING, THE VEHICLE WOULD TURN THE STABILITRAK SYSTEM BACK ON AND SMACK THE BRAKES. A FEW SECONDS LATER, THE SPEEDOMETER AND TACHOMETER DROPPED TO ZERO WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STILL MOVING ON THE HIGHWAY, AND THE CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM STOPPED WORKING. THIS ISSUE CONTINUED TO REPEAT ITSELF WHILE I WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIR.

HI, I LEASED A 2016 CHEVY MALIBU. WHILE ON THE FREEWAY, MY ENGINE POWER SUDDENLY LOWERED AND A NOTIFICATION POPPED UP SAYING THE SAME. THE RPM INCREASED TO 5+ SINCE I WAS TRYING TO TAKE EXIT AND THE CAR WAS LOSING CONTROL. I EVENTUALLY GOT TO GM SERVICE AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THE THROTTLE SENSOR GOT BAD WHICH WOULD COST $150+ TO REPLACE. HOWEVER I HAVE BEEN DRIVING IT SINCE THEN AND ONCE A MONTH THE SAME NOTIFICATION POPS UP AND LOWERS MY ENGINE POWER UNTIL I TURN IT OFF AND BACK ON. EACH TIME I DO THIS, I HAVE TO SUDDENLY STOP MY CAR ON THE SHOULDER. THE SENSOR IS NOT BAD, THE CAR JUST SENSES THAT THE SENSOR IS BAD AND REDUCES POWER. THIS SEEMS LIKE A SCAM WHERE GM WANTS TO MAKE MORE MONEY. MOREOVER, I'VE READ HUNDREDS OF THE SAME COMPLAINTS WHERE PEOPLE DESCRIBE HOW THEY ALMOST LOST CONTROL IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FREEWAY BECAUSE OF THE SAME ISSUE. THIS IS A CONCERNING SAFETY ISSUE AND GM SHOULD FIX THIS AS A RECALL. I WANT GM TO ACCEPT THAT THEY INSTALLED A DEFECTIVE PART AND WILL FIX IT. THANKS. SINCERELY, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

THIS HAPPENED TO ME ABOUT 2 WEEKS AGO, I WAS AT A RED LIGHT, THE ENGINE WENT INTO START/STOP, THE RADIO CUT OFF, THE INSTRUMENT PANEL WENT CRAZY WITH WARNINGS. THE CAR WOULD NOT CUT BACK ON, I WAS UNABLE TO EVEN USE ME HAZARDS. I HAD NO ELECTRICAL IN THE CAR WHATSOEVER. I HAD TO LITERALLY KEEP PULLING THE DOOR HANDLE TO EVEN GET OUT OF IT. FINALLY HAD SOMEONE COME HELP ME PUSH IT OFF TO THE SIDE, JUMPED IT AND IT WAS FINE. EVER SINCE IT HAS HAPPENED ABOUT 20 MORE TIMES THAT THE RADIO CUTS OFF AND ON THEN THE CAR DIES. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE IT AT THIS POINT. EACH TIME THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON, BUT BY THE TIME I GET IT STARTED AGAIN IT IS OFF. THEN RANDOMLY THE ENGINE LIGHT WILL COME BACK ON AND OFF AGAIN. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO GET THE CODE READ, BUT NOTHING. THIS IS UNSAFE AND VERY SCARY.
