2017 Chevrolet Malibu

ON OR ABOUT MAY 17 AND ON MAY 22 2018, THE ENGINE STALLED WHEN I ATTEMPTED TO ENTER AN INTERSECTION AFTER STOPPING AT A STOP SIGN. THE GREEN "ENGINE ON" LIGHT REMAINED ILLUMINATED. I HAD TO PUSH THE ENGINE START/STOP BUTTON TO TURN THE ENGINE OFF, THEN PUSH IT AGAIN TO RESTART THE ENGINE. AFTER THE MAY 22 INCIDENT, THE CAR MEDIA SYSTEM MALFUNCTIONED AFTER THE CAR WAS RESTARTED. THE SCREEN DISPLAYS WERE NORMAL, BUT THERE WAS NO SOUND FROM ANY SOURCE INCLUDING THE TURN SIGNALS AND 4 WAY FLASHERS.

WE HAD A DOWN POUR 05/20/2018 IN KISSIMMEE, FLORIDA. MY VEHICLE HAD STAND STILL WATER IN MY TRUNK, THE WATER SEEPED THROUGH TO THE INTERIOR DAMAGING THE REAR SEATS, WATER COVERED THE FLOOR, THERE ARE STAINS ON THE ROOF AND THE SMELL OF AGED WATER IS THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE VEHICLE. MY VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND UNOCCUPIED, THE TRUNK WAS CLOSED AND THE WINDOWS WERE UP AS NORMAL AS MY VEHICLE WAS PARKED FOR THE NIGHT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 CHEVROLET MALIBU. WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, THE DRIVER'S SIDE TURN SIGNAL FAILED TO WORK, THE WINDOWS WOULD INTERMITTENTLY OPERATE, AND THE HEADLIGHTS SHUT OFF. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURES WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE LOCAL DEALER (HEFNER MOTORS IN BATESVILLE, MS) WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 20,000.

MY 2017 MALIBU HAD A LOSS OF ENGINE POWER, IT HAPPENED WHILE ON VACATION. WHILE IN TRAFFIC ON A DARK CURVY ROAD, THERE WAS A SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER, THE CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AND THE ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON AS WELL AS A MESSAGE INDICATING LOSS OF ENGINE POWER. I PULLED OVER AN RESTARTED THE VEHICLE, IT DID NOT GAIN FULL ENGINE POWER BACK. I WAS ABLE TO SLOWLY MAKE IT TO MY DESTINATION. THE NEXT MORNING (KIDS IN TOW) THE ENGINE LIGHT WAS STILL ON, AND THE VEHICLE STILL SEEMED SLUGGISH. WHILE DRIVING HOME ( OR TO A DEALERSHIP IF POSSIBLE) THE CAR AGAIN LOST POWER AND I HAD TO PULL OVER AS TO NOT OBSTRUCT TRAFFIC. UPON GETTING THE VEHICLE SERVICED, THEY CLAIM THE MATTER WAS RESOLVED I AM NOT CONFIDENT,

CAR HAS ALWAYS RAN A LITTLE ROUGH, WE WERE TOLD BY CHEVY THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG EVERYTHING WAS NORMAL. ON OUR WAY HOME FROM FAMILY VACATION IN THE MOUNTAINS, THE CAR LOST POWER, ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. THANKFULLY WE WERE ABLE TO MAKE IT TO AN AUTOZONE AND WE WERE TOLD IT WAS MISFIRING IN CYLINDER 1. WE THEN TOOK THE CAR TO CHEVY, WE WERE TOLD THEY COULDN'T SEE THE PROBLEM AND THE MECHANIC WHO TAKES THE ENGINE APART TO CHECK WAS BUST THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS. SO THE CAR WAS IN THE SHOP FOR A WEEK BEFORE WERE TOLD THERE IS A CRACKED PISTON AND THEY WILL BE REPLACING THE PISTONS AND GASKETS. IF I DIDN'T WORK IN THE CAR RENTAL BUSINESS, I WOULD THINK MY CAR WAS GREAT AND READY TO LIVE FOREVER, BUT I DO. SO I KNOW, WE HAVE HAD SEVERAL MALIBU'S AND CRUZ'S WITH THE SAME ENGINE HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM AND AFTER 10K MILES THE PISTONS CRACK AGAIN. WE GET THE CAR BACK AND IT IS RUNNING MORE ROUGH THAN IT USED TO, NOW WERE WAITING FOR THE ENGINE TO CUT OUT AGAIN. I AM NOT LOOKING FORWARD TO MY CARS ENGINE CUTTING OUT ON THE HIGHWAY AGAIN BECAUSE CHEVY CANNOT FIND A FIX FOR THEIR BUM ENGINE. WITH ONLY 12K MILES LEFT OF THE WARRANTY. *TR
