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. Also, certain 2013 Buick Encore, 2011 Buick Regal, 2013-2014 Buick Verano, 2011-2016 Chevrolet Cruze, 2010-2013 Chevrolet Equinox 2013-2015 Chevrolet Malibu, and 2011-2013 GMC Terrain vehicles may have been serviced with similar defective replacement electronic park lock levers. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 114, "Theft Protection and Rollaway Prevention."
If the key is removed without the transmission in PARK, the vehicle may rollaway as occupants are exiting, increasing the risk of injury.
GM will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and if necessary replace the key cylinder lock housing, free of charge. The recall began on October 14, 2016. Owners may contact Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020, Buick 1-800-521-7300, and GMC 1-800-462-8782. GM's number for this recall is 50490 and 50491.

Visibility, sun/moon roof assemblyMar 23, 2015
General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2013-2015 Chevrolet Malibu vehicles October 24, 2011, to March 5, 2015. In the affected vehicles, the Slide or Tilt switch for the roof panel may not be adequately recessed to prevent the switch from inadvertently being pressed. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 118, "Power-Operated Window, Partition, and Roof Panel Systems."
The Slide or Tilt roof panel switch may inadvertently be pressed and the roof panel may auto-close unexpectedly, increasing the risk of a pinch injury.
GM will notify owners, and dealers will update the Body Control Module (BCM) software to remove auto-close feature for certain switch positions, free of charge. The recall began April 21, 2015. Owners may contact Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020. GM's number for this recall is 15176.

Service brakes, hydraulic, power assist, vacuumMay 14, 2014
General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2014 Chevrolet Malibu vehicles manufactured June 12, 2013, through May 2, 2014, and equipped with a 2.5L engine with the auto stop/start option. The affected vehicles may experience a complete loss of brake vacuum assist, disabling the hydraulic boost assist. As such, these vehicles do not comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 135, "Light Vehicle Brake Systems."
If the hydraulic boost assist is disabled, slowing or stopping the vehicle will require additional brake pedal effort and a lengthened stopping distance. Both of these effects increase the risk of a crash.
GM will notify owners, and dealers will update the electronic brake control module software, free of charge. The recall began on July 3, 2014. Owners may contact General Motors customer service at 1-800-222-1020. General Motors number for this recall is 14201.

Service brakes, hydraulic, foundation components, discMay 8, 2014
General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2014 Buick Lacrosse vehicles manufactured January 29, 2014, through March 31, 2014 and 2014 Chevrolet Malibu vehicles manufactured February 7, 2014, through March 31, 2014, and equipped with 17 inch front brake rotors. The affected vehicles may have had brake rotors intended for the rear of the car accidentally installed on the front. The rear rotors, while the same diameter, are thinner and may result in a front brake pad detaching from the caliper.
If a brake pad detaches from caliper, there may be a sudden reduction in braking, lengthening the distance required to stop the vehicle and increasing the risk of a crash.
GM will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the front brake rotors, and install the correct rotors with new brake pads, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on June 20, 2014. Owners may contact General Motors customer service at 1-800-521-7300 (Buick) or 1-800-222-1020 (Chevrolet). GM's number for this recall is 14128.

Power train, automatic transmissionFeb 21, 2014
General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2014 Buick Regal, LaCrosse, Verano, and Enclave, and Chevrolet Impala, Malibu, Cruze, and Traverse, and GMC Acadia vehicles equipped with automatic transmissions. In the affected vehicles, the transmission shift cable adjuster may disengage from the transmission shift lever. As such, these vehicles do not conform to Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 102, "Transmission Shift Lever Sequence, Starter Interlock, and Transmission Braking Effect." They also fail to conform to FMVSS number 114, "Theft Protection and Rollaway Prevention."
If a vehicle's shift cable disengages from the transmission shift lever, a driver may be unable to shift gear positions and the indicated shift position may not represent the gear position the vehicle is in. Should a disengagement occur while the vehicle is being driven, when the driver goes to stop and park the vehicle, the driver may be able to shift the lever to the "PARK" position, but the vehicle transmission may not be in the "PARK" gear position. If the vehicle is not in the "PARK" position there is a risk the vehicle will roll away as the driver and other occupants exit the vehicle or anytime thereafter. A vehicle rollaway increases the risk of injury to exiting occupants and bystanders.
General Motors will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and replace any affected transmission shift cable adjusters, free of charge. The recall began on April 10, 2014. Chevrolet owners may contact General Motors at 1-800-222-1020, Buick owners at 1-800-521-7300, and GMC owners at 1-800-462-8782. General Motors' number associated with this recall is 14048.

Visibility, defroster/defogger/hvac systemNov 13, 2013
General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2014 Chevrolet Malibu vehicles manufactured June 12, 2013, through November 5, 2013. The heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) control in these vehicles may intermittently become inoperable when the vehicle is started, preventing the windshield defroster from working. Thus, these vehicles fail to conform to the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 103, "Windshield Defrosting and Defogging Systems."
The inability to turn on the windshield defroster may decrease the driver's visibility thereby increasing the risk of a crash.
GM will notify owners, and dealers will update the electronic climate control module software, free of charge. The recall began during December 2013. Owners may contact GM at 1-800-521-7300. GM's recall campaign number is 13380.

WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION IN JANUARY 2020, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. THE VEHICLE LOSES POWER WHILE DRIVING AND THEN ACCELERATES SUDDENLY WHICH IS A HAZARD. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP AND I WAS TOLD THE FAULTY PART WAS GM# 12633613 ROCKER ARM CONTROL-SOLENOID VALVE. THE DEALERSHIP FRIENDLY CHEVROLET IN DALLAS, TX TOLD ME THEY COULD NOT FIX THE CAR BECAUSE THE DAMAGED PART WAS OBSOLETE. I HAVE BEEN IN CONTACT WITH CHEVROLET AND THEY GAVE ME A CASE #9-5872869989 BUT AS I TRY TO FOLLOW UP THEY DON'T ANSWER MY CALLS ANY MORE. CHEVROLET JUST GAVE ME SOME WEBSITES WHERE TO FIND THE PART, BUT NONE OF THE SITES HAS THE PART AND I CONTINUE DRIVING WITH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON AND AT RISK OF AN ACCIDENT. I HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY SOLUTION FROM CHEVROLET AND THEY HAVE JUST SENT ME TO LOOK FOR THE PART IN THE AFTERMARKET OR JUNKYARDS. I HAVE WASTED COUNTLESS HOURS LOOKING FOR THE PART WITH NO SUCCESS.

WHEN I COME TO A FULL STOP AT A RED LIGHT OR STOP SIGN, WHEN MY CAR TRIES TO USE THE AUTO STOP FEATURE THE MAJORITY OF THE TIME IT FAILS TO START BACK ON WHICH CAUSES IT TO FULLY TURN OFF WHILE THE KEY IS STILL TURNED AND THE CAR IS IN DRIVE AS IF THE CAR WAS STILL DRIVING. I DON'T KNOW WHAT THIS PROBLEM IS NOR DO I KNOW WHAT'S CAUSING IT. I CHANGED MY SPARK PLUGS THINKING THAT MIGHT OF BEEN THE PROBLEM BUT IT STILL CONTINUES TO DO THE SAME MALFUNCTION. PLEASE HELP.

I TOOK MY CAR TO TWO DEALERSHIPS. MY CHECK EBGINE LIGHT I ON. THEY SAID I NEEDED A ROCKER ARM VALVE SOLENOID . PART NO. 1633613 BUT CANNOT SEEM TO FIND RHAT PART.
Other or unspecified, Engine, Mar 1, 2020
THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE CODE READER SHOWED THAT THE VARIABLE TIMING SOLENOID NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. AFTER SEARCHING FOR A REPLACEMENT PART, I KEEP GETTING TOLD THAT THIS MAKE/MODEL CONSISTENTLY HAS THIS PROBLEM. THE ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON, THE CAR LOSES POWER AND SEEMS TO HAVE A TUGGING FEEL WHEN DRIVING ESPECIALLY WHEN ACCELERATING. THIS HAPPENS BOTH WITH IN TOWN DRIVING AND FREEWAY DRIVING. HAPPENS AT ANY SPEED.

PART NO. 12633613 WHICH IS A VALVE IS CURRENTLY ON NATIONAL BACK ORDER. THERE ARE CURRENTLY 23,000 CUSTOMERS WAITING FOR THIS PART. THIS PART SHOULD BE RECALLED IT'S NOT POSSIBLE THAT 23,000. PARTS ARE DEFECTIVE AND NOT BE RECALLED. NOBODY (DEALERSHIP OR GM) SEEMS TO KNOW WHEN TO EXPECT THE PART, WON'T SAY WHO MAKES THE PART OR WHY IT'S ON NATIONAL BACK ORDER.

THIS CAR IS EQUIPPED WITH THE AUTO STOP/AUTO START FEATURE. MEANING WHEN YOU COME TO A COMPLETE STOP THE CAR SHUTS DOWN, THEN WHEN ITS TIME TO GO BY RELEASING THE BRAKES IT WILL RESTART AND MOVE AGAIN. WITH MY MALIBU IT WILL AUTO STOP CONSTANTLY AND WHEN THE LIGHT TURNS GREEN IT WON'T RESTART FOR SOMETIMES MINUTES AT A TIME. HOLDING UP TRAFFIC BEHIND ME AND CREATING CHAOS. I HAVE TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK MODE, PULL OUT THE KEY, REINSERT THE KEY AND TRY TO START IT. SOMETIMES IT RESTARTS AFTER ONE TIME OF DOING THIS, BUT MOST OF THE TIME IT TAKES SEVERAL TRIES TO FINALLY GETTING IT STARTED. IT STARTED DOING THIS ABOUT 2 MONTHS AGO AND SEEMS LIKE ITS GETTING WORSE. I FEEL LIKE THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE, AND AM CONCERNED FOR MY SAFETY AND THOSE OF OTHERS IN MY CAR AT THE TIME. PLEASE INVESTIGATE INTO THIS MATTER, THANK YOU.*

I OWN A 2014 CHEVY MALIBU. IT CURRENTLY AS OF TODAY (1/8/2020) IS IN ITS EXTENDED WARRANTY. THE PART MY VEHICLE NEEDS TO FUNCTION AGAIN IS A: INTAKE ROCKER ARM OIL CONTROL VALVE, PART# 12633613. THIS PART IS NO LONGER IN PRODUCTION BY GM AND ACCORDING TO THEM NO ONE MAKES THE PART SO THEY ARE UNABLE TO FIX THE VEHICLE. THE ONLY REMEDY THEY OFFER IS TO TAKE THE BROKEN CAR AS A TRADE IN WHEN I PURCHASE A NEW VEHICLE FROM THEM. THEY REFUSE TO OFFER ANY SORT OF REFUND OR REPLACEMENT. THE CAR WAS MANUFACTURED IN 2014. IT'S NOT AN OLD CAR.
Other or unspecified, Dec 31, 2019
ROCKER ARM CONTROL VALVE- GM PART # 12633613 . CAUSES CHUGGING, SHUDDERING, SLOW ACCELERATION, DELAY WHEN GOING FROM A STOPPED POSITION (I.E. STOP LIGHT/ SIGN), POOR GAS MILEAGE. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT REMAINS ON AND WILL NOT ALLOW FOR REMOTE START TO BE USED. DRIVING AT ANY RATE OF SPEED OVER 15 MPH, EITHER IN TOWN OR HIGHWAY/ INTERSTATE, THE ENGINE WILL CHUG OR TRY TO STALL. ALSO GOING OVER 45 MPH, WILL CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO SHUDDER WHEN DRIVING. ACCELERATION IS DELAYED, CAUSING ISSUES WHILE AT INTERSECTIONS
Electrical system, Other or unspecified, Fuel/propulsion system, Dec 30, 2019
THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON WITH AP2646 CODE. AFTER ATTEMPTING TO REPAIR, AND THE CODE REMAINING I ATTEMPTED TO FIND PART 12633613. UNABLE TO LOCATE THE PART I BROUGHT IT IN TO A GARAGE. THEY REPLACED THE SAME PART I HAD ALREADY REPLACED, AND STILL THE ENGINE LIGHT REMAINED. THEY WERE ALSO UNABLE TO LOCATE THE REFERENCED PART ONLINE OR THROUGH A DEALERSHIP (MANGINO CHEVROLET). I CONTACTED SEVERAL DEALERSHIPS AND GM, THE PARTY IS DISCONTINUED AND BACK ORDERED AT PARTS STORES AND DEALERSHIPS. WITHOUT THIS PART, THE CAR CAN NOT BE INSPECTED AND BECOMES A SAFETY ISSUE, AND S LEGAL ISSUE OF CONTINUED TO OPERATE ON THE ROAD (IN NY AND ELSEWHERE I IMAGINE). THE PART IS FAULTY ON MANY CARS IF THE BACK ORDER IS AN ACCURATE INDICATION. ALTHOUGH IT DOES NOT PREVENT SAFE OPERATION OF THE CAR, THE CAR CAN NOT BE INSPECTED OVERALL FOR SAFETY UNTIL THE ENGINE LIGHT IS FIXED.

I HAVE A 2014 CHEVY MALIBU LS. ABOUT A YEAR AGO WHILE AT A STOP LIGHT THE CAR ENGINE SHUT STOPPED WORKING, AND ALL THE LIGHTS CAME OFF. I HAD TO GET THE ASSISTANCE OF A POLICE OFFICER TO CONTROL TRAFFIC AWAY FROM MY CAR, UNTIL THE TOW TRUCK ARRIVED AND TOWED IT TO THE SHOP. I WAS TOLD THAT THE AUXILIARY BATTERY WAS BAD, AND HAD IT REPLACED. THE CAR IT WORKED WELL. IN AUGUST OF THIS YEAR THE CAR ENGINE BEGAN SHUTTING OFF, WHILE I WAS DRIVING, AND SOMETIMES AFTER IT WAS PARKED OVERNIGHT. I HAD THE BATTERIES CHECKED, AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY WERE BAD. I LIVE IN AZ, AND THE WEATHER HERE IS VERY HOT, BOTH WERE REPLACED ON AUGUST 27TH AND 28TH, LESS THAN 2 MONTHS AGO, WITH TWO NEW BATTERIES. THE CAR WORKED WELL UP UNTIL THIS EVENING, WHEN IT SHUT DOWN COMPLETELY AS I WAS DRIVING INTO MY YARD. ALL THE LIGHTS CAME OFF, AND I CANNOT GET THE KEY OUT OF THE IGNITION. I AM GLAD THAT IT HAPPENED WHEN I ENTERED MY YARD AND NOT WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY. WILL TOW IT TO THE SHOP IN THE MORNING TO FIND OUT WHAT THE PROBLEM IS NOW.

MY WINDSHIELD AND BACK WINDOW WAS FOGGING ON THE INSIDE DURING THE FALL AND FROSTING ON THE INSIDE DURING THE WINTER. MY CARPETS FELT LIKE A SPONGE. IT TURNED OUT THERE WERE 6" OF STANDING WATER UNDER MY FLOORBOARDS ON THE DRIVER SIDE OF THE CAR (FRONT AND BACK). THE MECHANIC TRACED THIS BACK TO AN OPENING BETWEEN TWO PANELS, JUST BELOW THE WINDSHIELD, THAT WERE NEVER SEALED. HE SAID I WAS LUCKY. IF THE WATER GOT ANY HIGHER, IT COULD HAVE INTERFERED WITH THE ELECTRICAL AND AIRBAG SYSTEM. I ALSO LUCKED OUT IN THAT THERE WAS NO MOLD GROWTH. MY CAR WAS PURCHASED NEW ONLY FIVE YEARS PRIOR AND HAD NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT. REPAIR REQUIRED THE REMOVAL OF MY WINDSHIELD, A SIDE PANEL ON THE CAR, MY DRIVER SEAT, AND THE TEARING UP OF MY CARPETS.

AS I'M DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD THE CAR STARTS JERKING AND STALLING AND THEN JUST SHUTS OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. IT ACTS LIKE IT'S NOT GETTING ANY GAS. I HAVE REPLACED THE FUEL PUMP, OXYGEN SENSOR, AND A HOST OF OTHER PARTS AND IT'S STILL DOING THE SAME THING. I HAVE TAKING IT TO THE CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP WHERE I BROUGHT IT FROM, THEY PUT IT ON THE MACHINE SAID IT WAS A PART THAT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED I HAD THE PART REPLACED AND IT'S STILL DOING THE SAME THING SHUTTING OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. I HAVE A 3 YEAR THAT IS ALWAYS WITH ME IN THE CAR AND THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS. IT HAS BEEN GOING ON SINCE THE BEGINNING OF MARCH.

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. AFTER RESEARCHING, THERE IS NO WAY I CAN DISABLE THE FEATURE AND THERE IS NO WAY TO REALLY FIX THE ISSUE. MY CONCERN IS THAT SOMETHING ELECTRICAL COULD HAPPEN AND THE CAR COULD BE RUINED AS A RESULT.

WHEN DRIVING CAR STARTS TO JERK. SOMETIME IT FEELS LIKE A MAJOR JOLT AND OTHER TIMES IT A SLIGHT JERKING FEELING. I'VE COMPLAINED THE 1ST YEAR I GOT THE VEHICLE AND THEN 2 YEARS LATER I ALSO COMPLAINED ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE. WHEN IT WAS IN FOR SERVICE PROBLEM WAS NOT DUPLICATED NOR ANY INDICATION OF OF ISSUES WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS CHECKED BY THE DEALERSHIP. NO WARNING LIGHT INDICATING VEHICLE ISSUE ARE PRESENT. THIS ONLY HAPPENS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS BEING DRIVEN. I DON'T FEEL SAFE IN THE VEHICLE AND NO ONE FROM THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT CAN TELL ME ANYTHING ABOUT WHATS GOING ON. THIS REALLY NEED TO BE RESOLVED ASAP.
