Just like every other complaint for this model year - abs/brake sils come on w/routine driving @40 mph off highway and then service warnings about stabilitrak and brake systemscome on; this happened in february where the dealership claimed it was a cracked wheel hub (owned less than 1 year and not covered) and said it needed replacing. Replaced at ~$600. Afterwards, brakes were real shaky (whole steering column…

On march 30th, my abs lights came on my vehicle. I took my car to the dealership. I was told not to drive the vehicle. My car was serviced for the wheel bearings and abs brake system $1085. After picking up my vehicle, i received a diagnostic report from onstar stating that my vehicle still had brake and abs problems. I picked up the car from the dealership. Two days later while driving 40 mph my brakes went out…

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…

As many other customers have reported on these malibu's, issues with the wheel bearings going out in them at relatively low miles. I think this issue needs to be looked into because there are a ton of complaints about this issue.

My car started making this loud roaring noise at 75,000 miles. It got worse the longer i drove it. I ended up getting whee bearing replaced. Looking online i found out this is a huge problem with 2014 malibu's. Most are going out before 50,000 miles or lower. I think chevrolet needs to know about this problem before someone gets hurt.

Wheel bearing assembly. My car, as well as oh so many others, have an issue with the magnetic ring on the bearing assembly breaking. When this happens, it causes the abs, traction control, stablitrak and brake assist to all shut down. These failures happen frequently and repeatedly. It's estimated to be a $400 fix...for each one. Considering not every owner can just run to a dealer on a moments notice to have one or…

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…

Wheel bearings or hubs going bad on numerous malibu's. Many reported below 30k miles. My car is at 53k and 2 &1/2 years old and just had my first wheel hub go! The dealer paid basically for the labor and i paid for the factory part that will go bad again. The part by acdelco has only 1 seal and that maybe good for the southern half of the country but the northern half of the country uses salt which we as consumers…

A lady ran a red light and t-boned my chevy malibu on the drivers side as i was proceeding through the intersection. Airbags did not deploy. My head slammed in to the drivers side window. Drivers side door was smashed in. The car had to be towed because it couldn't be driven. I have a concussion that's lasted for 2 weeks and body pain from the accident. Shouldn't the airbags have deployed?

Stabilitrak stability control system, anti lock brakes and wheel bearing. 2nd time i have had these lights come on, driving and tracking control kicked in and then the lights all appear. I paid to have it fixed, and they spliced into the wire, not covered under warranty according to care. Yet it is part of wiring harness.

The wheel bearings are going out with less than 40k miles on it and it is a well documented and regularly occurring problem. On the malibu forum there are over 7 pages of people stating that they have had to replace the wheel bearings with as few as 19k miles on them. I am a few thousand miles outside of my warranty so i have to pay for the repair out of my own pocket but i think its ridiculous that oem parts, that…
