We purchased this vehicle as for safety and convenience, we are student and full time workers. We share one care and because of that we took care of the car like recommended. Since october, we have been isolated, depended on uber and lyft because of gm not having the part for the vehicle. We searched everywhere, we called gm and filed a complaint, nothing was done. We paid to get the diagnosis done and said we need…

The vehicle has a auto/stop feature which is extremely faulty. The feature is supposed to keep the vehicle's electronics running while the engine shuts off after certain criteria before stopping is met. However, the auto/stop feature on my car when activated causes the system to completely shut off and all electronics go black upon starting back up. The check engine light has also come on because of this issue.…

On 1/2/2019 i was driving in my car and two warning messages suddenly popped up on my console warning about the stability control and abs systems. There is a sensor that reads a "speed ring" on the rear of the wheel hubs. It seems chevy cars are known to have this ring crack and sections break off. When this happens the sensor can no longer read it and your stability control and abs systems will immediately stop…

The vehicle is regularly requiring a jump start due to a low battery voltage. While operating my car whenever i come to a stop the auto start/stop feature activates and my engine is shut off. As i release my foot from the brake and the engine restarts all power to my vehicle is completely lost temporarily, including the power to my steering wheel which instantly locks up. It's been very scary and concerning to say…

Its a common problem i have seen that happened to me 2 months after buying this car. The rear wheel bearing and hub assembly in both wheels have gone bad and it cause the brake light and abs light to come and repairs cost over 700 dollars. This problem is all over the internet and happens typically around 50,000 to 60,000 miles. I am not happy at all seeing as this is my first big car purchase and first chevy…

The reason for this complaint is because i believe chevrolet has defective abs sensor embedded in the wheel hub of this vehicle. We purchased two of these chevrolet malibu cars a couple months apart and have experienced the same problem with each. One of our vehicles was out of warranty (vin [xxx]) and repairs come at a cost of $450.00 plus per occurrence with under 65 thousand miles. We have suffered the same…

After waiting about 10 min we were able to start the car and slowly make it about a mile to a freeway exit…

This car has been damaged from the day we purchased it, we were finally told it was more than likely tied down too tight on the delivery truck. It has many issues such as the body doesn't line up, the electronics are bad and the care has shut down going down the freeway twice, the paint is dirty and peeling, the gm rep said there was nothing they can do to fix the vehicle but they will not stand behind it and refund…
