problem #2

Malibu

  • Automatic transmission
  • 45,000 miles

I was on the highway and it started jumping, lost control and it wouldn't drive right. I know it has a lot to do with the last recall about the steering lights and parking brake. But when calling dealer they claim not, I do not believe this. No auto shop can tell me what's wrong, I've rented a car for a week now. The EBS light comes on and all hell starts happening. I am not getting in this vehicle again and will sue chevy if I have to.

Malibu LXT V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 69,578 miles

Periodically my ESC light, traction control and reduced power, check engine lights all come on. The code reads throttle body which I had replaced, also check gas cap comes on fairly often had the appropriate fix done for this as well, but still keeps happening. I can usually turn the car off and wait a bit, restart and it will reset itself. frustrating that there is not a fix for this yet. Looks like lots of folks have this happen! Let me know if anyone found a fix. Thank you
