2013 Chevrolet Malibu

LESS THAN 99,000 MILES... RADIO LIGHT FLICKERS OFF AND ON. VEHICLE GOES DEAD AT RED LIGHT, STOP SIGN OR WHENEVER VEHICLE IS NOT IN MOTION. TOOK VEHICLE TO DEALERSHIP AND REPLACED THE ENGINE COMPUTER MODULE AS REQUESTED. HOWEVER, PROBLEM STILL EXIST BUT MORE WORSE. 'SERVICE POWER STEERING' LIGHT CAME ON WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY STREET BUT BEFORE I COULD MAKE A SAFE TURN, IT BECAME TOO TOUGH TO STEER ALMOST CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. BATTERY GOOD, ALTERNATOR GOOD..NO ONE REALLY KNOWS WHAT'S WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET MALIBU. WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, THE CHECK ENGINE SENSOR ILLUMINATED. IN ADDITION, THE VEHICLE WOULD SOMETIMES SHUT OFF WHILE MAKING A LEFT TURN. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THERE WAS AN ELECTRICAL FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS THEN TOWED TO CAP CITY CHEVROLET (5250 E. MAIN ST, WHITE HALL, OH), BUT NO FAILURE COULD BE FOUND. AFTER THE CONTACT RETRIEVED THE VEHICLE, THE FAILURE CONTINUED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,000.

13 MALIBU EVERY DAY AT LEAST TWICE THE RADIO WILL FLICKER OFF AND ON MULTIPLE TIMES AND THEN ONCE I HIT THE BRAKES AND MAKE A TURN THE BRAKE WILL GO SOLID AND THE STEERING WHEEL JERKS HARD ALL AT THE SAME TIME AND THEN ALL MY DASH LIGHTS STOP WORKING. THEN IT WILL ALL POWER ON AND WORK LIKE NEW A FEW SECONDS AFTER. BUT ONCE THE CAR IS PARKED AND CAR IS TURNED OFF IT WILL NOT ALLOW ME TO TAKE THE KEY OUT. AND THEN ONCE YOU TRY TO TURN THE KEY IN THERE IS NO POWER AT ALL. NO LIGHTS. NO CLICKS. NO RADIO. NO NOTHING. COMPLETELY DEAD CAR. BUT THEN IF YOU UNPLUG THE BATTERY FOR 10 MINS AND PLUG IT BACK IN... THEN THE KEY WILL COME OUT AND/OR WILL TURN ON AND THE CAR IS WORKING FINE AGAIN FOR MAYBE A TRIP OR TWO AND THEN IT DOES THIS AGAIN. EVERY SINGLE DAY! NO CODES SHOW ON THE DASH NO LIGHTS OF ANYTHING WRONG AT ALL. HAS BEEN DOING THIS FOR ALMOST A MONTH NOW. I HAVE ALMOST HIT MULTIPLE PEOPLE BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE!!! HELP!!!
