2016 Chevrolet Malibu

I HAVE TAKEN MY 2016 MALIBU PREMIER 2.0 TURBO TO THE DEALERSHIP FOUR TIMES NOW FOR THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE PARK ASSIST SENSORS GOING OUT. NOW, THEY ARE OUT AGAIN, AND THE DEALERSHIP WANTS ME TO PAY A $250 DEDUCTIBLE FOR MY EXTENDED WARRANTY TO COVER THE REPAIRS. I AM NOT AGREEING WITH THIS BECAUSE THIS IS THE FOURTH TIME I HAVE HAD MY CAR IN THE DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIR OF THIS SAME COMPONENT. NOW THE SERVICE ADVISOR HAS CONTACTED ME SAYING THE ENTIRE MODULE HAS TO BE REPLACED DUE TO A SHORT IN THE SYSTEM ITSELF. I PURCHASED THE CAR SEPT. 21, 2016, IT SHOULD NOT BE HAVING THIS PROBLEM OVER AND OVER AGAIN SO SOON, NOW I HAVE TO PAY A DEDUCTIBLE FOR THE SAME WORK TO THE DONE THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN FIXED PROPERLY THE FIRST TIME I BROUGHT THE CAR IN FOR THIS REPAIR, INSTEAD OF A SIMPLE SYSTEM UPDATE. THESE PARK ASSIST SENSOR ALERTS WHEN SOMEONE IS WALKING IN FRONT OR BEHIND THE VEHICLE, AS WELL AS ANOTHER VEHICLE BEING IN A 'BLIND SPOT". THE ALERT IS ESPECIALLY HELPFUL AT NIGHT , WHEN IN AN AREA WITH PEDESTRIANS AND SMALL CHILDREN, AND BACKING OUT OF PARKING SPOTS.

THE VEHICLE STARTED TO LEAK WITHOUT DAMAGE. WE NOTICED A FOUL SMELL IN OUR VEHICLE. WE LIVE IN FLORIDA WHERE IT RAINS QUITE OFTEN. WE ASSUMED IT WAS OUR 9-YEAR-OLD LEAVING SOME FRENCH FRIES BEHIND WHEN SHE LEFT THE DAY PRIOR. WE THEN GOT BACK INTO THE CAR AND NOTICED THE FLOOR HAD STANDING WATER AND THE BACK SEATS WERE WET. I LOOKED INTO THE TRUNK WHERE THE SPARE TIRE IS SUPPOSED TO BE AND SAW A PUDDLE OF WATER. NOW EVERY TIME IT RAINS, IT LEAKS AND THERE IS MOLD ON BACKSEAT AND TRUNK. I CALLED COX CHEVROLET 2 TIMES AND LEFT MESSAGES FOR THEM TO CALL ME BACK, AND THEY HAVEN'T. AFTER PAYING A LARGE SUM OF MONEY TO OWN THIS, WE ARE NOW IN A SMELLY, MOLDY VEHICLE. THIS IS SOMETHING THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED.

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT & REDUCED POWER EXPERIENCES THREE TIMES WHILE DRIVING. POOR FUEL ECONOMY (SINCE PURCHASE OF VEHICLE) AND LOSS OF ENGINE OIL (HOWEVER NOT VISABLE). MILES BETWEEN OIL CHANGES AND ISSUES WERE 5000 AND 3300 (SYNTHETIC OIL - SHOULD NOT BE LOW & DIRTY IN THAT SHORT PERIOD OF TIME). IDLING IS VERY ROUGH AND COOLING FANS NOT SHUTTING OFF. 35 DAYS LATER - SAME ISSUE - REDUCED POWER, OIL LEVEL LOW, IDLING ROUGH. DEALER FOUND LOW COMPRESSION, BLOWN PISTON AND DEBRIS CAUSING DEEP SCORES IN BORE. ENGINE REPLACED. 60 DAYS LATER - SAME ISSUE - REDUCED POWER, IDLING ROUGH, COOLING FANS CONTINUE TO RUN. REPLACED ACCELERATOR PEDAL SENSOR. BEFORE LEAVING DEALERSHIP, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON, COOLING FAN CONTINUE TO RUN AFTER ENGINE TURNED OFF. REPLACED MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR.

IN DASH GPS SYSTEM SOLD AS A SAFETY FACTOR TO WIFE WHEN VEHICLE PURCHASED. WE WERE TOLD AT TIME OF SALE THE UP GRADES WERE DO ON A REGULAR BASIC AT NO CHARGE. THE SYSTEM GOT INTO A COUPLE OF UN SAFE SITUATIONS (DIRECTED DOWN A INCOMPLETE ROAD WITH NO EXIT) THAT SHE REQUIRED ASSISTANCE VIA HER MOBILE PHONE. TO US, ALL SAFETY RELATED ITEMS THAT REQUIRE ANY TYPE OF UP GRADE SHOULD BE AT "NO COST" TO CONSUMER. GM DOESN'T PROVIDE UP GRADES TO SYSTEM WITHOUT A CHARGE OF $ 179.00 WHERE A GARMIN UNIT DOES AT NO CHARGE.

I GOT IN MY VEHICLE AFTER A MONTH AND DROVE FOR ABOUT 15 MINUTES AND I NOTICE IT WAS NOT GETTING COOL. SO I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND I WAS TOLD IT WAS MY CONDENSER AND A FOREIGN OBJECT HIT AND DAMAGED IT AN IT WAS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. SO I CALLED GM CUSTOMERS I WAS INFORMED THAT THE DEALER SAID THERE WAS A NICKEL SIZE WHOLE IN THE CONDENSER. AND THEY WE'RE NOT GONNA COVER IT BUT THERE HAS BEEN OTHER CUSTOMERS WITH THE SAME COMPLAINTS AND THERE REPAIRS. WAS COVERED AND THERE IS NO NICKEL SIZE HOLE IN MY CONDENSER AS YOU CAN SEE FROM THE PICTURE.
