2016 Chevrolet Malibu

NOTHING BUT ISSUES AFTER ISSUES AFTER ISSUE! THE DEALER DOESN'T EVEN KNOW WHAT IS WRONG WITH MY CAR. I HAD REDUCING ENGINE ISSUES, TOOK TO DEALER AND SEEMS AS IF THEY JUST CUT A WIRE. I STILL GET THE REDUCED ENGINE POWER WITHOUT THE MESSAGE APPEARING. THEN AN OIL LEAK OUT OF NOWHERE AND NOW MY CAR WILL NOT START, ON LUNCH AT WORK 30 MILES FROM HOME. EVERYONE WITH THIS CAR JUST SHOULD BE GIVEN A NEW ONE. I FEEL LIKE WERE TEST DUMMIES, NOT COOL! OR SAFE!!

ON OCT 22 AROUND 530 IN THE MORNING ON MY WAY TO TO WORK DRIVING ON A BUSY FREEWAY WHEN SUDDENLY THE REDUCE ENGINE LIGHT COME ON REDUCING MY SPEED FROM NEARLY 50MPH TO 20MPH ALL MOST CAUSING A NEAR FATAL ACCIDENT I'VE ONLY HAD THE CAR FOR 6 MONTHS OR SO I PLAN ON TAKING IT TO THE DEALERSHIP BUT I FEEL LIKE I GONNA BE STUCK WITH A HEFTY BILL FOR SOMETHING THAT SHOULD'VE BEEN A RECALL THAT CAN CAUSE A FATAL ACCIDENT.

SINCE I PURCHASED THE CAR, IT HAS HAD REGULAR MAINTENANCE DONE ON TIME. I WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE ON MY WAY HOME FROM WORK. AS I GOT OFF THE EXIT I NOTICED MY CAR ACTING FUNNY, AS I GOT TO THE END OF THE EXIT I NOTICED THAT I HAD NO BREAKS AND THAT I COULD NOT TURN THE STEERING AT ALL AND ACTUALLY COULD NOT COME TO A STOP AT THE END OF THE EXIT, HAVING TO RUN THE STOP SIGN AND INTO ON COMING TRAFFIC WHICH IF A POLICE OFFICER WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN THERE COULD HAVE BEEN A VERY BAD SITUATION. HAD MY CAR TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP TO FIND OUT THAT IT JUMPED TIME. WITH ONLY 70+ THOUSAND MILES ON MY CAR, WHY WOULD I EVEN THINK TO WORRY ABOUT MY CAR JUMPING TIME. I THEN FIND OUT MY WARRANTY ENDED AT 60,000 MILES. I HAVE READ THAT THERE ARE NUMBER OF CASES WITH THIS ISSUE. NOW I AM OUT $ 3000.00 FOR A MOTOR AND LABOR TO HAVE THE MOTOR INSTALLED.

I HAVE HAD MY VEHICLE FOR 2 YEARS SINCE DAY 1 I HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH THE VEHICLE FROM CONTROL ARMS, ELECTRICAL IN DOORS AND CAR SYSTEMS, THROTTLE BODY, STABILITY TRACTION CONTROL. I THINK THE CAR HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP WELL OVER 12 TIMES WITH AT LEAST 5 TIMES BEING THE THROTTLE BODY WHERE THE CAR JUST LOOSES POWER AND YOUR UNABLE TO DRIVE MORE THAN 40 MPH. IT GENERALLY WOULD HAPPEN ON THE FREEWAY. I WOULD PULL OVER AND HAVE TO TURN MY CAR OFF AND SIT AND THEN TURN IT BACK ON. THE ABOVE ISSUES WITH THIS CAR IS JUST TO NAME A FEW. BY THE WAY I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE AT 27,000 MILES SO THERE IS NO REASON WHY THESE ISSUES SHOULD CONTINUOUSLY BE HAPPENING. I HAVE CALLED CHEVY NUMEROUS OF TIMES COMPLAING THAT THIS VEHICLE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH IT. I BELIEVE THEY HAVE JUST ABOUT REPLACED EVERY PART EXCEPT FOR THE BRAKES, ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION AND I A SURE THOSE ARE GOING TO BE NEXT. I COULD GO ON AND ON ABOUT THIS VEHICLE HOWEVER, IT IS DEFINITELY SOMETHING WRONG. I JUST TOOK IT IN FOR CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AGAIN AND NOISE FROM REAR END SOUNDING LIKE A STRUT. AND THEY FOUND ISSUE WITH KEY THOB CAUSING CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, LEAKING STRUT, AND BAD WHEEL BEARINGS. NOW THAT JUST ADDS MORE TO THE LIST. NOT TO MENTION I GET HOME AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS BACK ON AGAIN AND THE NOISE IS SLIGHTLY STILL THERE. I HAVE PLENTY OF RECORDS I JUST HAVE TO MUCH TO UPLOAD HERE, BUT IF SOMEONE COULD PLEASE LOOK INTO MY SITUATION. THIS HAS TRULY BEEN A NIGHTMARE. WE CANNOT EVEN DRIVE THE CAR ON THE FREEWAY TO FAR BECAUSE WE ARE SCARED WE MAY GET STUCK.

I PARK, PLACE THE SHIFTER INTO PARK AND TURN THE CAR OFF BUT A MESSAGE APPEARS ON THE GAUGE CLUSTER SCREEN SAYING SHIFT INTO PARK. THE ENGINE IS OFF BUT THE LIGHTS AND RADIO STAY ON. THE SHIFTER IS LOCKED AND WILL NOT MOVE. THE SAME SCREEN SHOWS THAT THE CAR IS IN PARK BEFORE I SHUT THE CAR OFF, I CAN FEEL THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTING TOO. I HAVE TO TURN THE CAR BACK ON AND RUN THROUGH THE GEARS AND BACK OFF SEVERAL TIMES TO MAKE IT SHUT OFF. SEEMS TO HAPPEN MORE OFTEN ON SHORTER TRIPS. I WENT TO THE DEALER THEY HAVE A PART ON ORDER SEEMS TO BE A KNOWN ISSUE BUT I'M JUST OUT OF WARRANTY. I HAVE HAD THE CAR FOR 2.5 YEARS JUST OVER 35K MILES AND IT JUST STARTED.
