2013 MALIBU, LOW ENGINE POWER/ SERVICE STABILITRAK. SMELLING LIKE MELTING BURNING RUBBER, WON'T PICK UP SPEED ON ACCELERATION, IT DIED AT THE STOPLIGHT. CONTINUED ON AS I ACCELERATED TO GO UP A HILL IT DIED, I WAS IN TOWN ON CITY STREET. THE CAR BEHIND ME ALMOST HIT ME THANK GOODNESS THERE WAS NOT A CAR COMING AND THEY WERE ABLE TO GET IN THE OTHER LANE. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME TWO TIMES. THAT LAST TIME WHEN THE CAR ALMOST HIT ME I WAS ABLE TO GET THE CAR TO START AND MAKE IT HOME. IT'S BEEN IN MY DRIVEWAY FOR 2 WEEKS. IT SOUNDS LIKE IT WANTS TO TURN OVER BUT IT WILL NOT START. AND EVERYTHING I'VE READ IT SEEMS LIKE IT'S CAUSED FROM THE GENERATOR CONTROL MODULE. THERE IS A RECALL, BUT FOR SOME REASON NOT FOR MY MALIBU ECO 2013 .

BATTERY VOLTAGE INDICATOR CAME ON FIRST AND ENGINE LIGHT INDICATOR ON. REPLACED BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR. CAR STALLS WHEN GAS PEDAL NOT APPLIED. CAR TURNS COMPLETELY OFF WHEN BRAKING TO STOP SIGNS, RED LIGHTS, SLOWING DOWN TO TURN. IT'S COMPLETELY UNSAFE. IT HAS TURNED OFF ON ME CROSSING MAJOR HIGHWAYS. MECHANIC REPLACED FUEL PUMP DUE TO P0300 CODE ETC. CAR STILL STALLS AND TURNS OFF WHILE DRIVING, SLOWING DOWN TO STOP, TURNS OFF AT RED LIGHTS, STOP SIGNS AND WHEN BRAKING TO TURN. AT TIMES, I DO SMELL AS IF SOMETHING IS BURNING. THIS SMELL DOES NOT HAPPEN ALL THE TIME. I HAVE REPLACED THE BATTERY, THE ALTERNATOR, AND THE FUEL PUMP. THE CAR STILL STALLS AND CUTS OFF. I BOUGHT THE CAR IN AUGUST 2018, I HAVE HAD THESE PROBLEMS WITH THE CAR SINCE OCTOBER 2018.

ON AUD. 24, 2018 WHEN I WAS ON MY WAY TO WORK MY CAR FELT LIKE IT WAS ABOUT TO CUT OFF. THEN ALL OF SUDDEN EVERYTHING INSIDE WENT BLANK AND THE CAR STALLED. I PUT IN PARK AND STARTED IT BACK UP. THREE MINUTES LATER IT DID THE SAME THING, I PUT IN PARK AGAIN AND STARTED IT BACK UP. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND ON MY WAY HOME THAT AFTERNOON IT DID IT TWICE AGAIN. I SAW WHERE WAS A RECALL IN 2013 BUT MINE MUST HAVE BEEN INCLUDED. ITS VERY SCARY RIDING IN TRAFFIC AND YOUR CALL STALLS AND EVERYTHING JUST SHUTS DOWN ON YOU AND I FEEL IT'S ALSO DANGEROUS. I HAVE READ OTHER COMPLAINTS LIKE THIS AND NEED TO KNOW WHAT AM I SUPPOSE TO DO ABOUT IT. I NEED MY CAR TO GO TO WORK.

TAKATA INFLATORS WAS DRIVING ON A CITY STREET AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. PULLED OVER AND TURNED CAR OFF. SAT FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES AND STARTED IT AGAIN, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS STILL ON. STARTED TO DRIVE BACK TO MY HOUSE AND GOT ONLY 10 FEET BEFORE THE CAR SHUT ITSELF OFF, AND WHEEL LOCKED UP. PUT THE CAR IN PARK, AND TRIED STARTING IT AGAIN, AND IT TURNED OVER BUT SHUT ITSELF OFF AGAIN, WITH NOTICE OF ENGINE POWER REDUCED, SERVICE STABILITRAK. WOULD NOT START THE THIRD TIME. THIS IS MY ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION, AND BEING A MOTHER I NEED THIS CAR TO WORK AND TAKE CARE OF MY KIDS. IF CHEVY REALLY CARED ABOUT THEIR CUSTOMERS, THEY WOULD READ ALL THE COMPLAINTS THAT MANY OF US ARE HAVING ON THE SAME ISSUE AND RECALL OR FIX SOMETHING. I AM SO DISAPPOINTED.

WHEN I AM DRIVING MY CAR, THE WHOLE CAR SHUT OFF. THE BATTERY GOES BASICALLY DEAD AND MY STEERING LOCKS ON ME. I THEN HAVE TO PUT IT IN PARK IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD JUST SO I CAN RESTART THE CAR. I WAS ON THE FREEWAY YESTERDAY WITH MY 6 SIX YEAR OLD GODSON AND THE CAR SHUT OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING IN TRAFFIC ON THE FREEWAY. IT IS STARTING TO GET SCARY AND I NEED IT FIXED.

I HAD FOUR RECALLS DONE ON 3/17/17 AT EMERSON CHEVY IN AUBURN, ME. 15176, 12212, 13142, AND 13342. CAR HAD BEEN TOWED TO DEALERSHIP WHEN IT DIED ON SIDE OF ROAD. THEN ABOUT TWO MONTHS LATER, IT DIES ON SIDE OF ROAD AGAIN (BATTERY NOT CHARGING AGAIN!!). PAID OVER $1,000 TO GOODWIN CHEVROLET IN OXFORD, ME TO SUPPOSEDLY FIX IT. ON 6/1/17, MY DAUGHTER WENT OFF THE ROAD WHEN IT HAPPENED AGAIN (BATTERY DRAIN, STEERING FAILS, ETC. LUCKILY SHE WAS NOT GOING VERY FAST AND WENT INTO A FIELD. THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BEFORE SOME ONE GETS KILLED!
