2017 Chevrolet Malibu

MY BRAKE BOOSTERS WENT OUT AND I PAID $700 NOW SOMETHING ODD IS HAPPENING TO MY BRAKES WITH THE AIR OR PRESSURE. SHOULD THIS WHOLE CAR BE RECALLED? MY ELECTRICS BLINKED OUT THE DAY I GOT THE CAR AND THE SALESMAN SAID ' IT HAPPENS SOMETIMES NOW I HAVE TO REPLACE A BATTERY FOR$290 ON A CAR I HAVE LESS THAN 2 YEARS?? IT WAS MENTIONED THE AUTO START AFFECTS MY BATTERY!! I NEED TO SPEAK TO SOMEONE ABOUT REIMBURSEMENT AND COVERING MY BATTERY. LET'S TAKE AUTO START OFF TOTALLY IT'S A NUISANCE NOT A SOLUTION AND THE TOW TRUCK DRIVER SAID HE HAS TAKEN IN 4 GMC/CHEVROLET THIS WEEK AND 2 WERE MALIBU'S. MY CAR IS AT THE DEALERS RIGHT NOW!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 CHEVROLET MALIBU. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS AT A STOP LIGHT, IT ATTEMPTED TO RESTART INDEPENDENTLY AND THE POWER STEERING ASSIST WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE INSTRUMENT PANEL STARTED TO BLINK AND THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO RESTART THE VEHICLE, BUT IT FAILED TO RESTART. THE CONTACT CALLED MORITZ CHEVROLET (9101 CAMP BOWIE, DR. WEST STE. # 1, FORT WORTH, TX 76116, (817) 696-2000) AND SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS IN THE PROCESS OF BEING TOWED TO THE DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 59,211.

INDICATOR LIGHT REPEATEDLY COMES AND SAYS, PLEASE SHIFT VEHICLE INTO PARK. WHEN THE VEHICLE IS ALREADY IN PARK. I WILL HAVE BEEN PULLED IN MY DRIVEWAY ALREADY IN PARK MODE, I WILL HAVE TO KEEP STARTING AND STOPPING THE VEHICLE TO GET THE VEHICLE TO RECOGNIZE IT IS ALREADY SHIFTED GEARS INTO THE PARK POSITION. THIS HAS HAPPENED MORE THAN 6 TIMES SINCE I HAVE HAD THIS VEHICLE IN THE LAST 2 YEARS

CAR SHUTS OFF COMPLETELY WHILE DRIVING-THE CAR GOES DEAD DE-ENERGIZED COMPLETELY. ALL CONTROLS WOULD NOT WORK JUST LOCKED UP ON ME. I HAD TO HAVE THE UNIT TOWED TWICE, WE SWITCHED THE BATTERY IN THE KEY FOB AND THE CAR ENDED UP STARTING, HOWEVER 2 WEEKS LATER IT DIED AGAIN WHILE DRIVING, I NEARLY HAD AN ACCIDENT AGAIN!! 3 TIMES THE CAR HAS BEEN IN MOTION GOING STRAIGHT AND COMPLETELY SHUTS DOWN. THE DEALERSHIP WAS NOT ABLE TO FIND ANYTHING WITH THEIR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING!! THIS HAS TO BE SOME SORT OF MAL-FUNCTION OR RECALL REGARDING THIS ISSUE.

WHILE DRIVING IN THE LEFT MOST LANE OF A TOLLWAY IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC, THE CAR WAS AT A STOP AND SUDDENLY LOST ALL ELECTRICAL POWER. THE CAR COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN WITH NO WARNING OR WARNING LIGHTS. NOTHING WORKED INCLUDING HAZARD LIGHTS. ATTEMPTS TO JUMP START THE CAR WERE UNSUCCESSFUL AND THE CAR HAD TO BE TOWED TO A SAFE PLACE. AFTER THAT THE CAR STARTED AGAIN AS IF NOTHING HAD HAPPENED. NO ERROR LIGHTS OR ANY VISIBLE SIGNS THAT SOMETHING WAS EVER WRONG. BATTERY WAS LESS THAN A YEAR OLD AND FUEL WAS 1/3 TANK.

DRIVING ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY WITH A CUSTOMER AND THE ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON, POWER IS REDUCED TO A CRAWL, AND THEN "POWER REDUCE" LIGHT COMES ON. AT THAT POINT NO ACCELERATION OCCURS AND CAR CUTS OFF ( I WAS ABLE TO GLIDE TO THE SIDE) AND WILL NOT START BACK UP. AFTER AN HOUR,( AND ME HAVING TO CALL ANOTHER CAR TO PICK UP MY CUSTOMER) CAR CUTS BACK ON. TAKE IT TO DEALERSHIP, WAS ADVISED THAT A BULLETIN WAS ISSUED REGARDING THIS PROBLEM 18 MONTHS AGO, 1 MONTH BEFORE I PURCHASED CAR. SAID I NEEDED MY CYLINDERS REPLACED (THE ENGINE) BUT ONCE I TOOK IT IN, THEY REPLACED THE FUEL INJECTIONS (23,000 MILES). 60 DAYS LATER, THE SAME EXACT ISSUE HAS OCCURRED, AGAIN ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY, THIS TIME I HAD JUST DROPPED OFF A PASSENGER. WAITED 30 MINUTES, AND WAS ABLE TO DRIVE HOME. SINCE IT WAS THE HOLIDAY WEEKEND, I WAS NOT ABLE TO GET INTO THE DEALERSHIP FOR IMMEDIATE REPAIRS AGAIN. CALLED TODAY 7/8/19 TO SPEAK TO MY ADVISOR, HE HAS NOT CALLED ME BACK. I WILL HAVE TO HAVE THE CAR TOWED IN OR DRIVE ON THE BACK ROADS AT A CRAWL.
