2005 Chevrolet Malibu Classic

I HAVE A 2005 MALIBU CLASSIC WHERE THE TURN SIGNALS WILL STOP WORKING THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN START WORKING AGAIN. THE FUSES ARE GOOD, NO LOOSE WIRES THAT I CAN SEE, BULBS ARE GOOD. I HAVE READ OTHER COMPLAINTS FROM 2000 WHEN A RECALL WAS ISSUED FOR THE HAZARD SWITCH. THIS IS A ISSUE AND CAN RESULT IN A POTENTIAL ACCIDENT ONE DAY IF THE DRIVER BEHIND OR AROUND YOU DOES NOT SEE WHICH DIRECTION YOU MAY BE TURNING. THE PROBLEM COMES AND GOES. ANY SUGGESTIONS, ADVICE, IDEAS? *TR

I HAVE A 2005 MALIBU CLASSIC FIRST THE INTERIOR LIGHTS IN THE CONSOLE WENT OUT ABOUT MONTH I BOUGHT IT IN 2007. THEN A YEAR LATER THE THEFT SYSTEM STARTED TO ACT UP HAD TO WAIT FOR TEN MINUTES TO TURN THE LIGHT OFF, DID THAT AND KNOW THE LIGHT JUST STAYS ON THE DASH . TRIED EVERYTHING IT SAID TO DO IN THE MANUAL, BUT NOTHING HAPPEN. FOR MY OPINION I THINK THERE SHOULD BE A SAFETY RECALL ON ALL THE CHEVY MODELS BEFORE SOMEONE SERIOUSLY GET HURT WITH THESE FAULTY EQUIPMENT INSTALL IN MOST CARS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 CHEVROLET MALIBU. THE CONTACT STATED WHEN DRIVING AT LEAST 60-70 MPH, THE VEHICLE WOULD ABNORMALLY VIBRATE EXCESSIVELY. THE FAILURE DID NOT OCCUR WHEN DRIVING LESS THAN 60 MPH. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING OR REPAIRS. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 63,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 77,000.

I PURCHASED A 2005 CHEVY MALIBU CLASSIC. THE ANTI THEFT SYSTEM COMES ON AS THE OPERATOR DRIVES THE CAR. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING SEVERAL TIMES AND THE VEHICLE JUST LOST ALL ACCELERATION. EVERY WEEK I HAVE PROBLEMS GETTING THE VEHICLE TO START BECAUSE THE ANTI THEFT SYSTEM COMES AS THE OPERATOR TURNS THE IGNITION ON. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS AND DANGEROUS PROBLEM. I STRONGLY FEEL THAT THIS CARS SHOULD AND NEEDS TO BE RECALLED. *TR

WHILE DRIVING HOME IN MY 2005 CHEVY MALIBU CLASSIC I HEARD A LOAD POPPING SOUND AND SMOKE CAME ROLLING FROM UNDER THE HOOD. I THOUGHT AT FIRST THAT I HAD BLOWN THE TIRE OFF THE RIM SINCE I COULD SMELL LIKE BURNT RUBBER AND SEE THE SMOKE BUT THIS WAS NOT THE CASE. I LOOKED DOWN AND SAW ALL THE GAUGES LIT UP AND THE ENGINE HAD DIED. I COASTED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND CALLED THE FIRE DEPARTMENT BECAUSE THE CAR WOULD NOT STOP SMOKING AT FIRST. BY THE TIME THEY ARRIVED IT HAD STOPPED BECAUSE THE OIL HAD BURNED OFF OF THE MOTOR. AFTER HAVING THE CAR TOWED HOME AND THEN TO A REPAIR SHOP THE NEXT DAY IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THE CAP CAME OFF OF THE END OF A ROD WHILE THE PISTON WAS IN THE UP POSITION THE FUEL INSIDE FORCED THE PISTON DOWN CAUSING IT TO BLOW A HOLE IN THE SIDE OF THE MOTOR. HOW OR WHAT CAUSED THAT CAP TO COME OFF CAUSING THIS ISSUE? I NOW HAVE TO TRY AND LOCATE A MOTOR TO REPLACE THE ONE CURRENTLY DESTROYED. *TR

I HAVE A 2005 CHEVY MALIBU CLASSIC. I PURCHASED THIS CAR IN DECEMBER OF 2006. I HAVE HAD TO HAVE THE BRAKES REPLACED EVERY SIX MONTHS SINCE I PURCHASED THE CAR. MY MECHANIC ADVISED ME TO PURCHASE LIFE TIME BRAKES FROM AUTO ZONE AND SWAP THEM OUT EVERY SIX MONTHS...I AM A SINGLE MOTHER WHO DOES A LOT OF DRIVING AND CANNOT AFFORD TO CHANGE MY BRAKES EVER SIX MONTHS. PLEASE ADVISE. *TR

LOST POWER STEERING WITHOUT ANY NOTICE OR INDICATOR ERROR LIGHTS. PREVIOUSLY WHEN TURNING WOULD MAKE SOME SQUEALING NOISE LIKE LOW ON POWER STEERING FLUID, BUT IS ELECTRONIC POWER ASSISTED TURNING. CAR IS CHEVY MALIBU CLASSIC 2005 WITH 76,000 MILES ON IT. SAFETY ISSUE AS I COULD HAVE BEEN DRIVING 55 - 65 MPH ON HIGHWAY WHEN THE POWER STEERING QUIT! *TR
