Electrical system, ignitionJul 5, 2016
General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2016-2017 Buick Verano and 2016 Chevrolet Malibu as the electronic park lock lever may allow the ignition key to be removed without the transmission being in PARK.

If the key is removed without the transmission in PARK, the vehicle may rollaway as occupants are exiting, increasing the risk of injury.

MY BRAKES KEEP GOING "HARD" AND NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY. ABOUT A YEAR AGO I HAD MY MASTER CYLANDER, BRAKE BOOSTER, MICROSWITCH IN THE BRAKE VACUUM LINE, MAF SENSOR AND AIR INTAKE HOSE REPLACED BECAUSE THE MECHANIC SAID THOSE WERE THE ISSUES, I WENT 2 WEEKS WITHOUT MY VEHICLE, INCLUDING BREAKING DOWN FOR MULTIPLE DAYS OUT OF STATE. NOW HERE I AM WITH THE SAME ISSUES. BEFORE I HAD THEM REPLACED I WAS TOLD THAT THE MICROSWITCH IN THE BRAKE SYSTEM WAS ALREADY RECALLED AND REPLACED. BUT SINCE THEN IT HAS FAILED AGAIN. I WAS TOLD BY CHEVY THAT THEY ONLY DO THE RECALL ONCE, BUT IF THEY ARE REPLACING IT WITH A FAULTY PART SHOULDN'T THAT BE RECALLED AGAIN? I HAVE TWO TODDLERS IN MY VEHICLE REGULARLY AND LOSING THE POWER BRAKES COULD END VERY BAD. THE POWER BRAKES FAIL ALMOST EVERY DAY, USUALLY THE FIRST TIME I HIT THE BRAKES AFTER STARTING TO VEHICLE. WITCH MAKE ME THINK THAT ITS GOING TO COMPLETELY FAIL AGAIN SOON.

CAR WAS STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT, READY TO MAKE A LEFT-TURN AND COMPLETELY SHUT OFF FOR NO REASON. IT TURNED ON AFTER SOME MINUTES BUT THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS ONLINE (HTTPS://WWW.CARGURUS.COM/CARS/DISCUSSION-T65940_DS765514) OF THE SAME ISSUE WITH THIS MAKE AND MODEL (INCLUDING NEWER ONES), A LOT BEING WHILE THE CAR IS ACTUALLY DRIVING. THIS IS SO DANGEROUS!! WE DON'T FEEL SAFE CONTINUING TO OPERATE THE CAR SINCE FINDING OUT IT'S A RECURRENT PROBLEM FOR PEOPLE WITH THIS CAR WHO HAVE HAD NO RESOLUTION EVEN AFTER FILING MULTIPLE CLAIMS WITH CAR COMPANY AND TAKING IT TO THE MECHANIC.

ALSO, THERE IS ANOTHER LEAK THAT ALL OF A SUDDEN STRATED FROM THE SIDE OF THE ENGINE! WHEN DOING MY RESEARCH, THERE ARE SOOOOOO MANY PEOPLE WITH THE SAME PROBLEMS!

FROM THE TIME I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE (OFF LEASE) THE TRANSMISSION NEVER FELT RIGHT. THE CAR WOULD JERK FROM GEAR TO GEAR AND THE RPMS WOULD SKY ROCKET. I EXPRESSED THIS CONCERN MULTIPLE TIMES WITH THE DEALERSHIP I BOUGHT THE CAR FROM AND THEY ASSURED ME EVERYTHING WAS OKAY AND THAT IT WAS JUST THE TYPE OF TRANSMISSION. AFTER JUST GETTING MY CAR OUT OF THE SHOP FOR A SEPARATE ISSUE THE CRUZE LEFT ME ON THE SIDE OF A VERY BUSY HIGHWAY THAT IS NOTORIOUS FOR ACCIDENTS. AS I TRIED TO SPEED UP THE RPMS WOULD ONCE AGAIN SKY ROCKET BUT THE CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. AFTER ABOUT A MINUTE OF THIS HAPPENING I PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. AFTER PUTTING THE CAR IN PARK I SAT FOR A MOMENT. WHEN TRYING TO DRIVE THE CAR JUST WOULD NOT MOVE. I TRIED FORWARD AND REVERSE AND NEITHER WORKED. SO THERE I SAT WITH CAR WHIZZING BY ME WITH A CAR THAT DID NOT WORK. AFTER TOWING THE CAR TO THE SHOP HE GAVE ME THE GUT WRENCHING NEW THAT MY 7 YEAR OLD CAR'S TRANSMISSION IS SHOT. I NOW HAVE A $4,000 REPAIR WHICH I CANNOT AFFORD. OH AND THE KICKER IS I OWE $8,000 STILL.

I JUST WANT TO START OFF BY SAYING WE PURCHASED THIS CAR BRAND NEW FROM KOCOUREK CHEVROLET IN WAUSAU, WI. DEC 2012 OR JAN 2013 BUMPER FELL OFF WITHIN 3 MONTHS OF PURCHASE WHILE DRIVING. YES, FELL OFF. THE DEALERSHIP WHERE WE PURCHASED THE CAR HESITANTLY REPLACED IT AS THE CLIPS WERE BROKE OFF. DEC 2012 TRUNK BUTTON DOES NOT WORK PROPERLY - HAS BEEN REPLACED MULTIPLE TIMES (BY KOCOUREK). AND NOT IT HAS RECENTLY ONCE IT OPENS, IT WILL NOT CLOSE DESPITE BEING SLAMMED SHUT 8 TO 10 TIMES. OCT 2012 HAD AN ANTIFREEZE LEAK FROM DAY ONE - DEALERSHIP TELLS US THEY CAN'T FIND ANYTHING EVEN WHEN POINTED OUT. I GO THOUGH A GALLON OF DEXOS ANTIFREEZE EVERY 2 WEEKS. BUT AS THE DEALERSHIP SAYS, THAT'S FINE AND NORMAL.... UM... NOT TO ME!!!! JAN 2018 - THE CAR STALLS OUT CONSTANTLY - REDUCED ENGINE POWER, WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, IN THE CITY OR EVEN JUST PARKED IN THE DRIVEWAY. I HAVE BEEN VERY NEARLY REAR ENDED MULTIPLE TIMES BECAUSE OF THIS. WE HAVE YET TO FIND THE SOURCE OF THIS. JAN 2018 CODES FOR THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR ISSUES EVEN THOUGH IT HAS BEEN REPLACED MULTIPLE TIMES. STILL CAN'T FIND THE SOURCE OF THIS. DEC 2018 AFTER BEING STARTED, THE CAR WILL SHUT ITSELF OFF OR DIE OFF. STILL CANT FIND THE SOURCE. AUG 2018 RECENTLY, THE CAR HAS DASH WARNINGS THAT STATE "AC OFF DUE TO HIGH ENGINE TEMP" EVEN WHEN IT IS 30 DEGREES OUT. THE TEMP GAUGE WILL ALSO DROP TO COLD. WE HAVE ALSO CHANGED THE THERMOSTAT MULTIPLE TIMES AS WELL. THIS CAR IS BEYOND A LEMON. WE HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH THIS CAR FROM DAY 1. AND WHAT IS MORE RIDICULOUS IS THAT THE DEALERSHIP WILL NOT STAND BEHIND IT. I HAVE SERVICE RECORDS DOCUMENTING THE COMPLAINTS OF THE ISSUES AND THE DEALERSHIP "NOT FINDING ANYTHING WRONG" OR "UNABLE TO DUPLICATE ISSUES". WE HAVE GIVEN UP WITH CHEVY AND ALSO WITH KOCOUREK CHEVROLET IN WAUSAU. THESE ISSUES HAVE BEEN ONGOING SINCE WE PURCHASED THE CAR SEPTEMBER 2012.

HERE I AM AGAIN, CHANGED IT AND IT IS AGAIN FAULTY AND LEAKING OIL. THIS NEEDS TO BE WARRANTY AND COVERED BY GM. I'VE ALREADY HAD TO DO THE WATER PUMP MYSELF BECAUSE THEY WOULDN'T FIX THE WATER PUMP AT ANY DEALER.
