Air bags, sensor, occupant classificationJun 14, 2018
General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2016-2018 Chevrolet Malibu vehicles. During servicing, a Passenger Presence System (PPS) may have been installed that was not correctly calibrated to the vehicle's seat type. As a result, the PPS may not properly identify an adult passenger from a child passenger in the front passenger seat, potentially causing the air bag to not deploy when it should, or causing the air bag to deploy when it shouldn't.
In the event of a crash, improper air bag deployment can increase the risk of injury.
GM will notify owners, and dealers will replace the front passenger PPS seat service kit, free of charge. The recall began August 7, 2018. Owners may contact Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020. GM's number for this recall is 18208.

2017 MALIBU LOST POWER WHILE ON THE FREEWAY ON 4/10/2019! DROPPED FROM 65 DOWN TO 45 WHILE IN THE 3RD LANE. THIS HAS TO DO WITH SOME ELECTRICAL CONNECTION AROUND THE DRIVE PEDAL! THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS OF PPL LOSING POWER WHILE ON THE FREEWAY. JUST GOOGLE IT! THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE THAT IS GOING TO GET SOMEONE KILLED! AS A FORMER QE IN THE AUTO INDUSTRY, THIS WOULD HAVE ALREADY RESULTED IN RECALL EFFORTS BECAUSE OF THE SAFETY RISK! SO NHTSA, I HOPE YOU TAKE THIS COMPLAINT VERY SERIOUSLY AND NOT WAIT FOR SOMEONE TO DIE OR GET SERIOUSLY HURT! SUCH AS THE TAKATA AIRBAG, FIRESTONE TIRES WHICH ALMOST KILLED A FAMILY MEMBER!

WELL COMING TO A STOP AT A RED LIGHT THE VEHICLE SHUTS OFF WITH NO POWER. THIS HAPPENED TO ME MULTIPLE TIME WITH THE CAR HAVING NO POWER THAT I CAN'T EVEN PUT MY EMERGENCY LIGHTS ON. PRIOR TO THIS MY VEHICLE NOTED "SERVICE STABILITY" ON DASH BOARD AND THAT WENT AWAY. AFTER THAT ISSUE POPPED UP ANOTHER ISSUE OCCURRED. MY DASHBOARD NOTED "SHIFT TO PARK" WHEN MY GEAR WAS IN PARK. MY DEALERSHIP REPLACED IT IN WHICH THAT'S WHEN THE CAR STARTED TO SHUT OFF MORE.

VEHICLE WENT INTO 'ENGINE POWER DECREASED' UNABLE TO ACCELERATE WITH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON AS WELL AS THROTTLE SENSOR ON. TOOK TO DEALER WHO CHECKED ALL OF THE DIAGNOSTIC CODES AND SAID IT WAS FULLY OPERATIONAL. AGAIN DROVE FOR ABOUT 1 MONTH AND SAME THING HAPPENED. TOOK IT BACK IN AND CHEVROLET DEALER SAID IT WAS THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL SENSOR. WE REPLACED THE SENSOR BEING A $200 PART LAST WEEK AND AGAIN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. WHEN THIS HAPPENED WE WERE ON THE HIGHWAY IN A SNOW STORM AND HAD OUR BABY IN THE VEHICLE. IT LOCKED UP AND CARS COULDN'T SLOW DOWN APPROPRIATELY. WE LEFT THE HIGHWAY FOR SAFETY REASONS AND KEPT VEHICLE ON AS IT WAS BELOW 0 DEGREES OUTSIDE!

I PURCHASED THE CAR WITH 11MILES ON IT AND I AM STILL HAVING THESE ISSUES WITH LOSS OF POWER STEERING RESULTING IN ALMOST NEAR DEATH CRASHES. THE CAR STALLS WHILE IN MOTION. THIS HAS HAPPENED BOTH IN TRAFFIC AND ON THE HIGHWAYS. IVE HAD TO PULL OVER ON THE HIGHWAY. THE EMISSIONS IN THE CAR IS ALWAYS A PROBLEM AND THE ENGINE CONSTANTLY SOUNDS LIKE IT FALLING OUT AS YOU SWITCH GEARS. I HAVE REACHED OUT TO GM TO COMPLAIN, HOWEVER THEY HAVE NOT BEEN HELPFUL NOR ARE THEY EXPERTS IN FIXING TRANSMISSION/ EMISSIONS ISSUES. AT THIS POINT I NO LONGER HAVE FAITH IN THIS 2017 MALIBU AND I FEEL LIKE GM IS TAKING ABSOLUTELY NO RESPONSIBILITY IN THE ERRORS OF THE MECHANICS OF THIS CAR. SO FAR, I WAS TOLD AFTER 1 YEAR OF TRYING TO FIX THE ISSUE AND HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS SPENT ON RENTAL CARS BECAUSE THIS ISSUE IS NOT DEEMED A WARRANTY ISSUE, THEY GAVE ME $1500 TO PURCHASE ANOTHER GM VEHICLE, NEVER ADDRESSING THE ISSUE OF THE SAFETY CONCERNS I HAVE WITH THE CAR. THAT IS NOT FIX I AM WILLING TO SETTLE FOR. WHAT ABOUT THE MONTHLY OBLIGATION I HAVE IN TERMS OF PAYING OFF THIS CAR? NONE OF THE TECHNICIANS WERE ABLE TO EXPLAIN TO ME WHY THIS IS AND I HAVE SPENT COUNTLESS DOLLARS IN AN EFFORT TO HAVE THIS CAR LOOKED AT. THE REASON FOR MY RECENT COMPLAINT IS BECAUSE AGAIN THE CAR IS EXPERIENCING STALLING AND LOW POWER STEERING. THE ORIGINAL FIX FROM CHEVROLET WAS TO CHANGE SOMETHING IN THE BATTERY "FOUND CODE COBOO B1325 LOW VOLTAGE CODES. FOUND SHORTED CELL IN BATTERY CASUING LOW VOLTAGE AT STARTUP REPLACED BATTERY AND ROAD TESTED 6 MILES. NO CODE RETURNED " HOWEVER THEY HAVE CHANGES THAT CELL EVERYTIME I TAKE IT IN FOR SERVICE. THIS DOES NOT FIX THE ISSUE, INSTEAD CAUSES ME MORE MONEY BECAUSE THIS IS NOT A WARRANTY ISSUE AND I AM ALWAYS HAVING TO LEAVE MY CAR FOR WEEKS. I AM LOOKING FOR A REMEDY THAT IS SAFE FOR BOTH ME AND MY CHILDREN. I HAVE REPAIR ORDERS IF NEEDED

I STARTED HAVING ISSUES WITH MY 2017 CHEVY MALIBU A LITTLE OVER A MONTH AGO. I WAS DRIVING IN THE CITY AND THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND A WARNING FOR ENGINE POWER REDUCED CAME ON. CAR WOULD NOT GO OVER 30 MILES AND HOUR. IT DIDN'T HAPPEN AGAIN UNTIL 2 DAYS AGO ITS HAPPED FOR BOTH DAYS ON DAY IT CAME ON AS I WAS ENTERING THE FREEWAY. HAD TO PULL OVER AND TURN MY CAR ON AND OFF UNTILL I COULD DRIVE IT AGAIN NORMALLY BUT THE ENGINE LIGHT WOULD TURN ON AND OFF. I'M VERY DISAPPOINTED THIS IS HAPPENING TO MY NEW CAR. THE REASON I GOT A NEW CAR WAS TO HAVE SOMETHING RELIABLE. I CANT EVEN TRUST TO DRIVE THIS CAR WHAT IF IT HAPPENS AND I HAVE MY BABY IN THE CAR... I'M SO DISAPPOINTED.

WHILE DROPPING OFF MY CHILDREN AT SCHOOL THE CAR CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP AND WENT INTO AUTO STOP. WHEN RELEASING THE PEDDLE SO THE CAR COULD TURN BACK ON THE WHOLE DASH BOARD AND THE RADIO SCREEN COMPLETELY CUT OFF AND WHEN THE CAR TURNED OFF IT ALL SWITCHED BACK ON. THE DASH SCREEN FLAGGED AND SAID STEERING ASSISTANT IS REDUCED DRIVE WITH CARE. THIS REPEATEDLY HAPPENDED ANOTHER TWO TIMES EVERYTIME I CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP. AFTER THE THIRD TIME THE CAR DID NOT TURN OFF AT ALL. IN THE PAST I HAVE HAD THE ERROR MESSAGE COME ON WHEN THE CAR WOULD COME TO A STOP AND THE CAR WOULD TURN BACK ON BUT I AM BEGINNING TO BECOME VERY WORRIED BECAUSE NOW THE WHOLE DASH BOARD AND RADIO ARE TURNING OFF. I WAS ON A REGULAR CITY STREET BUT AM WORRIED WHEN I RETURN TO WORK AFTER MY VACATION I WILL GET STRANDED. I AM ATTACHING SCREENSHOTS OF A VIDEO I WAS ABLE TO CAPTURE ON THE THIRD TIME THIS HAPPENED TO ME. THE TIME IS ATTACHED ALSO.

ENGINE POWER REDUCED SEVERAL TIMES A DAY IN TRAFFIC AND ON THE HIGHWAY NOT LETTING ME ACCELERATE THE CAR OVER 30 MILES PER HOUR AT RANDOM TIMES ALMOST CAUSING AN ACCIDENT FOR ME AND MY 4 CHILDREN. CAR CAN BE IN MOTION OR SITTING STILL.

TRUNK LEAKS WHEN IT RAINS. THE PLASTIC BETWEEN THE BACK WINDOW AND CEILING LETS WATER IN WHEN IT RAINS. IT ALLOWS MOISTURE TO GET INTO THE VEHICLE, WHICH MEANS IN THE WINTER ICE FORMS ON THE INSIDE OF THE WINDSHIELD AS WELL AS THE OUTSIDE. RAIN AND MOISTURE GETTING INTO THE CAR HAS ALSO CAUSED A PROBLEM WITH THE BACK SPEAKERS NOT WORKING.
Electrical system, Feb 2, 2019
VEHICLE HAS "REDUCED ENGINE POWER" MULTIPLE TIMES ERROR DISPLAYED AND WILL STALL ANYWHERE IN TRAFFIC CAUSING DANGEROUS SITUATIONS. THESE CARS ARE BEING SOLD PEOPLE ARE NOT FAMILIAR WITH THIS. YOU CAN STOP ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND CHECK WHAT IS WRONG BUT RISK POSSIBLY BEING INJURED BY ON COMING VEHICLES IN ON GOING TRAFFIC. THIS FEATURE SHOULD BE SOMETHING COVERED BY THE COMPANY FOR A BRAND NEW CAR THERE NO REASON BEHIND WHY THE CAR IS DOING THIS OR HOW THE DRIVER CAUSE THE CAR TO ENTER THIS LIMP MODE. I DRIVE ON A HIGHWAY AT 70MPH AND THE CAR STALL COMPLETELY SENT ME INTO PANIC MODE BECAUSE THERE WAS NO WARNING PRIOR TO THIS, SOON WILL CAUSE THE DEATH OF A DRIVER AND THEIR FAMILY. ONCE GETTING THE CAR HOME IT NO LONGER STARTS.

AFTER TRIP OF A FEW MILES AND AFTER TURNING OFF THE START/STOP(KEYLESS) SWITCH, THE SCREEN MESSAGED THAT THE REMOTE KEY WAS NOT DETECTED, EVEN THOUGH IT WAS STILL IN THE CAR. NEITHER REMOTE KEYS WOULD NOT PERFORM ANY FUNCTION NOR WOULD MANUALLY PUSHING DOOR LOCKS OR SWITCH. AFTER ABOUT 20 MINUTES REMOTE KEY OPERATION RETURNED.THIS HAPPENED AGAIN ABOUT 2 WEEKS LATER. THE DEALER CANNOT FIND THE PROBLEM. I AM WORRIED THAT THIS WILL STOP THE ENGINE IN A CRITICAL SITUATION.

VEHICLE HAS MULTIPLE TIMES A DAY "REDUCED ENGINE POWER" ERROR DISPLAYED AND WILL SUDDENLY STALL ANYWHERE IN TRAFFIC CAUSING DANGEROUS SITUATIONS. PEOPLE WHO NOT FAMILIAR WITH THIS. WILL HAVE TO STOP ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND EXIT THE VEHICLE TO CHECK WHAT IS WRONG AND RISK POSSIBLY BEEING HIT AND KILLEOTHER D BY ANOTHER VEHICLE. THIS FEATURE SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED ON ANY VEHICLE. IT CAUSES ENDAGERMEMT FOR DRIVERS AND OTHER TRAFFIC. IT IS A NEEDLESS FEATURE. IF ANY SENSOR IS BAD IT ALREADY GETS DISPLAYED BY THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO REASON TO ON TOP OF IT STALL THE VEHICLE CAUSING EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATIONS FOR THE DRIVER AND OTHER TRAFFIC.

THE CAR SOMETIMES HAS A HUGE DELAY AFTER YOU PUSH THE START BUTTON ON DASH TO ACTUALLY START, AND BEING A HYBRID THE CAR SHAKES BAD WHEN ENGINE STARTS, IT'S SOUNDA LIKE CRAP TO BE HONEST. I'VE GOT 12K MILES ON IT AND IT'S BEEN SERVICED AT CHEVY ONLY, AND THE [XXX] THING HAS A RATTLE IN THE DASH THEY 'CAN'T FIGURE OUT' AND THEY DON'T HEAR ANY ABNORMAL ENGINE NOISE. AND THEY SAY IT'S NORMAL TO LAG THAT BAD WHEN STARTING, AS IT HAS TO 'POWER UP'.
