2016 Chevrolet Malibu

I WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE WHEN MY CAR BEGAN TO SLOW DOWN AND GAVE THE MESSAGE THAT ENGINE WAS LOOSING POWER. WHEN I MASHED THE ACCELERATOR, THE CAR WOULD NOT PICK UP SPEED. I COULD HAVE BEEN HIT. I HAD TO SLOWLY MAKE MY WAY TO AN EXIT RAMP AND STOP THE CAR. I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND RESTARTED AFTER A WHILE AND I WAS ABLE TO GET HOME. THIS HAPPENED SEVERAL TWO MORE TIMES BEFORE I WAS ABLE TO GET TO THE DEALERSHIP. I WAS TOLD THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL HAD TO BE REPLACED. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL INSTEAD OF ME HAVING TO PAY OUT OF POCKET. I AM DISAPPOINTED BECAUSE I THOUGHT CHEVROLET WAS A LITTLE MORE RELIABLE THAN THIS. CHEVROLET REALLY NEED TO INVESTIGATE THIS AND RECALL THIS BEFORE SOMEONE IS KILLED.

DRIVING ALONG AND MY 2016 WITH 39,000 MILES LOSES ACCELERATION POWER AND RECEIVE WARNING 'ENGINE POWER IS REDUCED'. I LIMP IT TO THE CHEVY DEALERSHIP AND THEY GET IT IN AND I GET A CALL LATER WITH THEM TELLING ME THEY HAVE SEEN THIS IN TWO OTHER CARS AND THEY ARE WAITING ON THE ACCELERATOR THROTTLE PEDAL SENSOR THAT NEEDS REPLACED. THEY RESET AND CLEANED THE SENSOR AND SENT ME ON MY WAY. IT'S HAPPENED THREE OTHER TIMES SINCE THEN AND I LIMP IT BACK TO SHOP EVERY TIME TO GET RESET. I SHOULD NOT BE HAVING THIS ISSUE WITH IT BARELY OUT OF WARRANTY. IT SAYS A LOT OF ONE SHOP TO HAVE THREE MALIBU'S WAITING FOR THIS PART TO BECOME AVAILABLE. I LOVE THE MALIBU'S BUT WITH THE ISSUES WITH THIS CAR I'VE HAD IT'S HARD TO KEEP MY FAITH IN CHEVROLET. THEY KNOW THIS MODEL IS HAVING ISSUES YET HAS NOT RECALLED MY VEHICLE YET AND I'M OUT OF POCKET. I'M A SINGLE MOM THAT NEEDS A RELIABLE CAR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 CHEVROLET MALIBU. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS THE ''ENGINE POWER REDUCE'' MESSAGE WAS DISPLAYED AND THE SPEED SUDDENLY DECELERATED TO 20 MPH. AFTER TURNING OFF AND RESTARTING THE ENGINE, THE VEHICLE OPERATED NORMALLY; HOWEVER THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BREDENANN CHEVROLET (1401 WEST DEMPSTER ST, PARKRIDGE, IL) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE THROTTLE BODY NEEDED TO BE CLEANED AND THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS FAULTY AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS ON BACKORDER AND THERE WAS NO ESTIMATED OF WHEN THE PART WOULD BE AVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 44,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 CHEVROLET MALIBU. WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, THE VEHICLE DECELERATED AND WOULD NOT EXCEED 20 MPH. ALSO, THE FUEL SENSOR WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO SERRA CHEVROLET (28111 TELEGRAPH RD, SOUTHFIELD, MI 48034, (248) 354-6001) WHERE THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THEY WERE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL POSITION SENSOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 34,874.

MY CAR STABILITRAK COMES ON EVERY OTHER 20 MINS WHEN DRIVING. IF I TRY TO ACCELERATE MY CARS CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WILL COME ON AND THEN SAY ENGINE POWER REDUCED ALMOST STOPPING MY VEHICLE ON THE INTERSTATE I CAN ONLY DRIVE IT IN TOWN UNDER 40 MPH. DIAGNOSTIC SHOWED NOTHING AND OF COURSE NO RECALLS BUT EVERY RECALL CHEVY HAS WITH THE MALIBU FITS MY MODEL. VERY DISAPPOINTING. IT HAS BECOME VERY DANGEROUS. TODAY I WAS HEADED TO PICK UP MY DAUGHTER FROM DAYCARE AND MY BRAKE PEDAL BECAME VERY STIFF AND I COULD NOT STOP CAUSING ME TO ROLL THROUGH AN INTERSECTION THANKFULLY IT WAS A GREEN LIGHT AND LET THE CAR ROLL UNTIL IT STOPPED. I WAS TERRIFIED. I HAVE NOT HAD THE CAR LONG AND IT IS A HEADACHE.

WHEN I WAS RESUMING ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL THE VEHICLE TOOK OFF AFTER A SEMI TRACTOR TRAILER THAT WAS IN FRONT OF ME; I HAD TO BRAKE HARD TO AVOID FROM HITTING THE SEMI TRUCK. I WAS TRAVELING ABOUT 55 MPH AT THE TIME THIS INCIDENT HAPPENED & IT HAS HAPPENED TWO MORE TIMES AFTER THAT INITIAL INCIDENT. THEN IT STOPPED WORKING AND I HAD TO TAKE IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY SAID THERE WAS NO RECALL ON THE VEHICLE & DID A RECALIBRATION ON THE FRONT CAMERA & LONG RANGE RADAR MODULES.

I WAS DRIVING 35MPH, AND SUDDENLY THE CAR LOST POWER, AND I WAS GOING 10 MPH. A MESSAGE CAME ON SAYING REDUCED POWER. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP THAT I PURCHASED THE CAR, RED LION CHEVY. THEY FOUND NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR, AND TOLD ME I BETTER GET THE CAR OFF THE LOT. I WAS SCARED TO DRIVE THE CAR AS IF I WAS ON A HIGHWAY, I COULD HAVE BEEN RUN OVER BY A TRUCK. I ALREADY HAD A CRACKED PISTON REPAIRED AND THE CAR NEEDED A NEW ENGINE. ON STAR SENT ME AN EMAIL STATING THAT I HAVE AN ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION PROBLEM AND TO GET THE CAR SERVICED.THE SALES MANAGER RIVERA JUST WANTED TO SELL ME A NEW CAR, AND THEY WOULDN'T DO ANY FURTHER TESTING ON MY VEHICLE.

ON A HIGHWAY IN MOTION WHEN THE CAR STARTED TO SLOW DOWN AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE OVER 40 MPH. THE MOTOR STARTED TO MAKE A LOUD NOISE. THERE WAS NO POWER WHEN PUSHING ON THE PEDDLE. THIS HAS HAPPEN TO ME ON 3 DIFFERENT OCCASIONS. WHEN THIS OCCURS THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT APPEARS AND STAYS ON FOR TWO DAYS BEFORE GOING BACK OFF. THE CAR GOES BACK TO NORMAL AFTER BEING PARKED AND SITS FOR ABOUT 3 HOURS.

I HAVE A 2016 CHEVY MALIBU. AS I WAS DRIVING MY ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THEN A MESSAGE SAYING THAT MY ENGINE POWER HAS BEEN REDUCED. I TOOK MY CAR TO A NEAR BY CHEVROLET SERVICE DEPARTMENT. THEY SAID THAT THE ISSUE WAS A FAILED ACCELERATOR PEDAL ALONE WITH SOME FAILED SENSORS. I SAW SEVERAL REVIEWS WITH A SIMILAR PROBLEM IF NOT THE SAME. I WAS VERY SHOCKED TO SEE THAT THERE WAS NOT A RECALL TO CORRECT THIS ISSUE. I BROUGHT THIS CAR BRAND NEW AND EVERY SINCE THEN I HAVE BEEN HAVING NOTHING BUT ISSUES. I CALLED GM AND THEY OPENED A TICKET, SO HOPEFULLY I GET SOME FEEDBACK SAYING THAT IT IS SOMETHING THEY ARE RECALLING TO CORRECT THE ISSUE.. UNTIL THEN I HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR A RENTAL. IF THEY DO NOT RECALL IT THEN I WILL BE PAYING OVER $1200 FOR REPAIRS.
