What 921 owners told NHTSA about the 2013 Chevrolet Malibu Hev

THE CAR WILL RANDOMLY LOSE POWER AND DIE WHILE RUNNING AND IN MOTION. IT STARTS WITH THE RADIO GOING OFF, THEN ALL THE DASH LIGHTS FLASH OFF AND ON AND THEN THE VEHICLE WILL SUDDENLY STOP. THIS HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES OVER THE PAST WEEK AND IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. IT HAPPENS WHEN DRIVING BELOW 40 MPH

TAKATA RECALL THE LIGHTS ON MY DASH KEPT GOING IN AND OUT WHILE I WAS DRIVING AND WHILE STATIONARY. WHILE MY CAR WAS OFF, WITH NO KEY IN THE IGNITION, THE GAUGES WOULD MAKE CLICKING SOUNDS AND BOUNCE UP AND DOWN ABOUT AN 8TH OF AN INCH. THE LIGHTS ON THE DASH WOULD STAY OFF FOR DAYS AT A TIME, MAKING IT IMPOSSIBLE FOR ME TO SEE HOW FAST I WAS GOING OR HOW MUCH GAS WAS IN THE CAR. SOMETIMES THE LIGHTS WOULD CLICK ON FOR ABOUT 30 SECONDS AND THEN THE SPEEDOMETER WOULD BE STUCK AT THE LAST SPEED I WAS GOING AT, FOR DAYS, WITHOUT SHOWING ANYTHING ON THE DIGITAL SPEEDOMETER. WHEN I TOOK IT TO GET LOOKED AT, NO CODES WERE FOUND. MY CAR KEPT DYING WHILE I WAS DRIVING, WENT AND HAD MY BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR TESTED AND THEY WERE 100% FINE. CAR DASH LIGHTS STARTED FLASHING ON AND OFF WHILE I WAS GOING AROUND A CURVE. CHECK ENGINE, OIL, WIPER FLUID, GAS LIGHT, EVERYTHING FLASHED ON AND OFF, THEN MY STEERING LOCKED UP, CAUSING ME TO GO OFF OF THE ROAD AND HIT A TREE. MY CAR WAS TOTALED.

SOMETIMES IT HAPPENS WHEN I TURN ON MY BLINKER OTHERS ITS RANDOM BUT THE CAR STALLS AND THE RADIO TURNS OFF ALONG WITH THE POWER STEERING.

I WAS SITTING AT A RED LIGHT, WITH MY FOOT FIRMLY ON THE BRAKE. SUDDENLY IT STARTED TO MOVE AND SUDDENLY TOOK OFF AND HIT THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME (THE CAR HAD MOVED UP SIGNIFICANTLY, BUT I HADN'T, SO IT HAD A LOT OF MOMENTUM WHEN IT HIT)! AFTER THE ACCIDENT REPORT WAS FILED, I TRIED TO START THE CAR TO LEAVE, BUT THE CAR WOULDN'T START. ADDITIONALLY, A TON OF ERROR MESSAGES WERE FLASHING, AS WELL AS ALL INDOOR AND OUTDOOR LIGHTS FLASHING, EVEN THE DECORATIVE PANEL BLUE STRIP LIGHTS. I WAS TERRIFIED. I HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED FROM THE SCENE. AT FIRST, THE OFFICER DIDN'T BELIEVE ME, THAT IT WAS THE CAR'S FAULT, NOT MINE, BUT ONCE SHE SAW WHAT WAS HAPPENING, SHE BELIEVED ME. THE TOW TRUCK DRIVER SAID THE CAR WAS POSSESSED, HE HAD NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THIS BEFORE. THE CAR HAD ALMOST 53,000 MILES ON IT, ONE YEAR TO GO WITH PAYMENTS, AND I HAD BEEN PLANNING TO KEEP IT ONCE IT WAS PAID OFF, UNTIL THIS HAPPENED. IT COULD HAVE BEEN SO MUCH WORSE. WHAT IF IT HIT PEDESTRIANS CROSSING THE STREET? I WAS AT A COMPLETE STANDSTILL. WHEN MY MECHANIC EVALUATED IT, A BUNCH OF ERROR CODES PRINTED OUT, ONE OF WHICH WAS U0121 MULTI-AXIS ACCELERATION SENSOR LOST COMMUNICATION WITH ELECTRONIC BRAKE CONTROL MODULE. I'M PRETTY SURE THIS WAS WHAT CAUSED THE ACCIDENT, BUT BOTH GENERAL MOTORS AND MY CHEVROLET DEALER SAY THIS MEANS NOTHING. I SOLD THE CAR AND BOUGHT A MITSUBISHI MIRAGE. I WILL NEVER BUY A CHEVY AGAIN. ALL OVER THE UNITED STATES, ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS ARE HAPPENING TO OTHER CHEVY'S (MY MAKE, MODEL AND YEAR ALONE) - SO FAR ABOUT 167 THAT I'VE READ ABOUT, BUT NO ONE'S DOING ANYTHING ABOUT IT.

THE ENTIRE INSTRUMENT PANEL CLUSTER WOULD TURN ON/OFF ON IT'S OWN AT RANDOM. AT FIRST THE ISSUE SEEMED TO HAPPEN THE MOST WHEN THE ENVIRONMENTAL TEMPERATURES WERE LOWER. THE ENTIRE INSTRUMENT PANEL HAS NOW COMPLETELY STOPPED WORKING. NONE OF THE GAUGES OR LIGHTS ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL WORK. DUE TO THIS ISSUE, I AM UNABLE TO KNOW MY SPEED, FUEL LEVEL, MILEAGE, TEMPERATURE, BATTERY, ETC. THIS CREATES A HAZARD WHEN DRIVING.

DOOR LOCKS ENGAGING AND DISENGAGING RANDOMLY WHILE DRIVING, HEADLIGHTS TURNING OFF AND ON RANDOMLY WHILE DRIVING, CAR STARTING WHILE PARKED IN GARAGE (NO REMOTE START). DEALERSHIP REPLACED BCM, COULD NOT GUARANTEE THIS FIXED THE PROBLEM. INDICATED THEY HAD NEVER SEEN THE ISSUE BEFORE. WITHIN 2 WEEKS, ALL ISSUES REPEATED THEMSELVES. RETURNED TO DEALERSHIP. THE DEALERSHIP KEPT THE CAR FOR 2 WEEKS AND THEN CALLED ME AND LEFT A MESSAGE TO PICK IT UP AS THEY COULD NOT FIND THE ISSUE. WHEN I CALLED BACK, THE DEALERSHIP SAID "IT WAS A GOOD THING YOU HAVEN'T PICKED UP THE VEHICLE YET, IT STARTED ON ITS OWN 3 TIMES THIS MORNING". IF I HAD PICKED THIS VEHICLE UP, THE ISSUE WOULD HAVE HAPPENED AGAIN WHILE I WAS AT HOME. CASE HAS BEEN FILED WITH CHEVROLET CUSTOMER CAR, AND SUFS (GM GLOBAL SAFETY). NO ACTION HAS BEEN TAKEN. NO ENGINEERS HAVE BEEN SENT DOWN TO LOOK AT THE CAR FROM GM HEADQUARTERS. AFTER THE CAR STARTED ON ITS OWN AT THE DEALERSHIP, THEY CHANGED OUT THE IGNITION SWITCH, BUT AGAIN, CANNOT GUARANTEE THE ISSUES WON'T REOCCUR. CAR WAS RETURNED TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR A THIRD TIME ON MAY 2ND AFTER THE HEADLIGHTS TURNED ON AND OFF 3 TIMES ON THE WAY TO WORK ON MAY 1ST. AFTER HAVING THE VEHICLE UNTIL MAY 10TH, I WAS INFORMED THAT THE DEALERSHIP COULD NOT FIND AN ISSUE, AND I SHOULD PICK THE CAR UP AS THEY COULD NOT DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM IF THEY DO NOT SEE IT. THE RESPONSE FROM GM HAS BEEN A JOKE. THE CAR IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE. I CANNOT DRIVE IT AT NIGHT, AND CANNOT PART IT IN MY GARAGE, AS IT COULD START AND CAUSE MY ENTIRE FAMILY TO DIE FROM CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING, OR COULD OVERHEAT FROM RUNNING IN PARK WHILE WE ARE SLEEPING AND START A FIRE. I CANNOT IN GOOD CONSCIENCE SELL THE CAR EITHER. SO, I AM STUCK WITH AN UNSAFE VEHICLE THAT GENERAL MOTORS WILL NOT TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR. MY CONCERN IS THAT THERE MAY BE OTHER VEHICLES ON THE ROAD WITH THE SAME ISSUE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET MALIBU. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM UNDER THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT MADE THE INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHTING TURN OFF INTERMITTENTLY. ON ANOTHER OCCASION, THE INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHTING REMAINED OFF. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER OR INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING OR REPAIRS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 63,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

WHEN MY 2013 CHEVY MALIBU IS IN MOTION AND SOMEONE IS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT (MANY BUT NOT ALL TIMES) ALL OF THE ELECTRONICS, INCLUDING THE ELECTRONIC SPEEDOMETER, AND ALL DASHBOARD GAUGES, IN THE CAR STOP WORKING AND NOTIFICATIONS ABOUT THE AIRBAG SYSTEM AND BRAKING SYSTEM APPEAR. THE MECHANICAL ASPECTS OF THE CAR STILL SEEM TO WORK FINE, BUT THE NOTIFICATIONS ABOUT THE AIRBAGS AND BRAKING MAKE ME CONCERNED THAT IT IS NOT SAFE. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR A YEAR. I HAVE TRIED TAKING MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP MULTIPLE TIMES AND HAVE BEEN TOLD THEY EITHER CANNOT REPLICATE IT OR THEY WILL "FIX" SOMETHING THAT DOESN'T END UP SOLVING THE PROBLEM. GIVEN THAT THIS PROBLEM STARTED RANDOMLY AND NOT WITH ANY INTERVENTION ON MY PART OF THE PART OF ANY MECHANIC, I AM CONTACTING NHTSA BECAUSE I AM CONCERNED THAT THIS PROBLEM IS RELATED TO THE AIRBAG SENSOR IN THE PASSENGER SEAT AND THAT THIS MIGHT BE HAPPENING WITH OTHER PEOPLE AND COULD REPRESENT REAL DANGER IF THIS REALLY IS AFFECTING THE AIRBAG AND BRAKING SYSTEMS (EVEN WHEN THE PASSENGER SEAT IS NOT IN USE).

HAVE BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH THE BATTERY SINCE I GOT THE CAR BACK IN 2017. REPLACED THE BATTERY 3 TIMES WITH A YEAR THINKING IT WAS JUST A DEAD BATTERY. AFTER THE THIRD TIME IT HAPPENED TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT THE BATTERY CABLES NEEDED TO BE CLEANED AND BATTERY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED PAID 400 DOLLARS FOR THAT . 6 MONTHS LATER SAME PROBLEM HAPPENS. I'M IN MY CAR BATTERY LIGHT COMES ON , BATTERY VOLTAGE STARTS TO GET LOW, CAR LOSSES ALL POWER AND I AM STRANDED. HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEAL SHIP BECAUSE I JUST HAD THIS SAME PROBLEM 6 MONTHS AGO . AFTER A WEEK IN THE SHOP I WAS TOLD IT WAS THE BELT AND THE REPAIRS WOULD BE 400 DOLLARS AGAIN. I WENT AHEAD AND AGREED TO HAVE THEM WORK ON THE CAR FOR A CALL A DAY LATER SAYING SOMETHING ELSE'S WAS WRONG AND REPAIRS WERE NOW 1550 DOLLAR. WENT AHEAD AND AGREED TO GET IT FIXED ASKED IS THIS GOING TO FIX MY PROBLEM I'M HAVING WITH THE BATTERY WAS TOLD YES. GOT MY CAR OUT THE SHOP AND HAD THE SAME ISSUE WITH THE BATTERY LIGHT AND CAR STALLING IN LESS THAN 24 HOURS OF HAVING THE CAR OUT OF THE SHOP. I SEARCHED RECALLS AND DID SEE ONE FOR THIS CAR ABOUT THE GCM CAUSES THE BATTERY LIGHT TO COME ON. WHERE I SEARCHED MY VIN NUMBER RECALL DID NOT SHOW UP FOR MY CAR. WHAT AM I TO DO NOW THE DESCRIPTION OF WHAT'S HAPPENING WITH MY CAR FITS THE DESCRIPTION OF A RECALL WITH THIS MAKE MODEL AND YEAR OF MY CAR.

WHEN DRIVING MY MALIBU IT SEEMS TO HAVE A SHORT CIRCUIT WHEN I TURN THE WHEEL EVEN THE SLIGHTEST. I HAVE CHANGED THE BATTERIES CHECKED ALL THE WIRES AND EVERYTHING SEEMS FINE. I HAVE FIGURED OUT EVEN WHEN I'M DRIVING 70MPH ON THE HIGHWAY WITH MY FAMILY IN THE CAR THE POWER STEERING WILL GO OUT AND MAKE IT HARD FOR ME TO EVEN TURN. I HAVE READ ONLINE THAT THIS IS HAPPENING TO MALIBU'S EVERYWHERE AND THAT GM IS NOT WILLING TO MAKE IT A NATIONAL RECALL BECAUSE IT MUST BE HAPPENING WHILE THEY SEE THE CAR. SO I GUESS I HAVE TO WAIT FOR ME TO CRASH? TO SEE THAT THE POWER STEERING GAVE OUT ON ME ALONG WITH THE REST OF THE ELECTRICAL WORK ON THE INSIDE OF THE CAR.

WHILE DRIVING MY VEHICLE ALL OF THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS GO OFF. SOMETIMES THEY FLICKER BEFORE GOING OFF BUT ONCE THIS HAPPENS SOMETIMES I LOSE POWER IN THE VEHICLE OTHER TIMES I JUST HAVE TO CONTINUE DRIVING WITH NO DASHBOARD LIGHTS, THIS MEANS I CANT SEE HOW FAST I AM GOING, MY GAS GAUGE ETC. THIS CAUSES A BIG RISK FOR ME AS I AM DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY. IT DOESNT MATTER THE WEATHER EITHER, IT COULD BE RAINING, SNOWING OR SUNNY AND THE DASHBOARD STILL ACTS UP. IT ALSO CAUSES MY BATTERY TO DRAIN WHICH IS BRAND NEW, I ALSO CHECKED ALTERNATOR AND STARTER AND BOTH ARE PERFECT. SOMETIMES THE DASH IS BLANK EVEN RIGHT AT THE START UP OF MY CAR, OTHER TIMES IT GOES OUT AS I AM DRIVING, IT ALSO DOESNT MATTER THE SPEED.

WHEN DRIVING OR PARKED THE WHOLE DASH BOARD WILL CUT OUT COMPLETELY RESULTING IN LOSS OF SPEEDOMETER, GAS GAUGE, TEMP GAUGE AND TACH. SOMETIMES IT WILL COME BACK ON SOMETIMES IT DOES NOT FOR DAYS, HAVE TO KEEP A SPEEDOMETER APP ON MY PHONE WHILE DRIVING NOW. GM SEEMS TO BE IGNORING THIS ISSUE AS THEY DO MOST ELECTRICAL ISSUES, I TRADED IN A 2000 IMPALA WITH ELECTRICAL ISSUES JUST TO GET ANOTHER GM CAR WITH ELECTRICAL ISSUES AT A HIGHER PRICE. I HAVE CALLED MULTIPLE DEALERSHIPS AND NON OF THEM SEEMS TO HAVE AN IDEA OF WHAT IT COULD BE WHICH TELLS ME GM IS NOT EVEN TRYING TO FIND A ROOT CAUSE FOR THE ISSUE, THEY ARE MORE THAN WILLING TO LET ME BRING IT IN AND HAVE THE WHOLE SYSTEM LOOKED OVER AT MY COST THOUGH. HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH THIS FOR OVER A YEAR NOW

AS I AM DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, THE ENTIRE DASHBOARD GOES BLACK, THEN IT JUST LIGHTS BACK UP AS IF I WERE JUST STARTING THE CAR...ALL OTHER FUNCTIONS REGULARLY WHILE THE DASHBOARD BLACKS OUT...THE RADIO STILL WORKS. THIS HAPPENS SPORADUCALLY MEANING THERE IS NO RHYME OR REASON TO IT..I AM SCARED IT WILL CATCH ON FIRE.
