While driving on highway my "stabilitrak" light flashed on and I was unable to accelerate. I pulled over and while breaking the car was hopping. Turned the car off and back on and various lights came on (stabilitrak, check engine, traction control and steering assist). I attempted to start driving again and the car would not accelerate appropriately. Had it towed to dealership who couldn't find anything wrong with it because all the alerts had turned off.

Car completely turned off at a red light and had no power. Steering locks up and had to push car have towed& then it started right up after. This is happening to many people and it stops even when the car is driving. This is a safety issue

Hi, I leased a 2016 Chevy Malibu. While on the freeway, my engine power suddenly lowered and a notification popped up saying the same. The RPM increased to 5+ since I was trying to take exit and the car was losing control. I eventually got to GM service and they told me that the throttle sensor got bad which would cost $150+ to replace. However I have been driving it since then and once a month the same notification pops up and lowers my engine power until I turn it off and back on. Each time I do this, I have to suddenly stop my car on the shoulder. The sensor is not bad, the car just senses that the sensor is bad and reduces power. This seems like a scam where GM wants to make more money. Moreover, I've read hundreds of the same complaints where people describe how they almost lost control in the middle of the freeway because of the same issue. This is a concerning safety issue and GM should fix this as a recall. I want GM to accept that they installed a defective part and will fix it. Thanks.

This happened to me about 2 weeks ago, I was at a red light, the engine went into start/stop, the radio cut off, the instrument panel went crazy with warnings. The car would not cut back on, I was unable to even use me hazards. I had no electrical in the car whatsoever. I had to literally keep pulling the door handle to even get out of it. Finally had someone come help me push it off to the side, jumped it and it was fine. Ever since it has happened about 20 more times that the radio cuts off and on then the car dies. I am afraid to drive it at this point. Each time the check engine light comes on, but by the time I get it started again it is off. Then randomly the engine light will come back on and off again. I have taken it to get the code read, but nothing. This is unsafe and very scary.

When I stopped at 3 red lights on my way to work this morning my car shut completely off with the auto off setting but it didn't shut off until I let go off the break and when I let go and it shut off my car started going backwards and then it powered back on.

I was driving vehicle and "check engine" light came on and message said engine power reduced. The car rapidly slowed down and would not speed up even though I pressed down hard on the gas pedal. I pulled over and parked, shut down and restarted the engine. It worked fine. As I drove to go back home, the car could barely go the speed limit. I parked the car for more than 24 hrs. When I started the car, the engine light had gone out so I drove off. While driving the engine light came back on and the car's speed suddenly dropped down to a very slow pace. The speed limit was 40 mph. I pushed the gas pedal to the floor but the car would only go about 10-20 mph. Speed control was a definite problem. The dealership was not far so I drove it there. I explained the problem and the service attendant told me what the problem was before he checked the vehicle. Ironically, there was another customer there with the same problem. We both had the same year and make and model with approximately the same amount of mileage. The service attendant addressed both of us together since we both had the same issue. We needed a app pedal sensor. They didn't have the part. It was on back order. This tells me this is a common problem with this car. Had I been on the highway and this happened, I or someone else could have been killed. This is a serious safety hazard and Chevrolet needs to recall and fix it quickly. While checking the web for information about this issue, I noticed there are numerous online complaints regarding this problem from other consumers.

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.

Shift to park issue. Vehicle is clearly in park but message on message board informs me "vehicle is not in park." Have to wiggle/mess with shifter in order to get the message to disappear. Otherwise vehicle will not turn off. Dealership informed me the shifter assembly needed to be replaced... common problem and needs to be fixed by Chevy.

My Malibu does not allow me to turn it off when I put it into park. I get the message "shift to park".

The contact owns a 2016 Chevrolet Malibu. While operating the vehicle, the stabilitrak indicator illuminated. Also, after turning the ignition off, the engine continued to operate for approximately 30 seconds. Upon restarting the vehicle, it drove very roughly and would not accelerate properly. The vehicle was taken to red lion Chevrolet (3220 cape horn rd, red lion, pa) where it was diagnosed that the engine was faulty and needed to be replaced. The engine was replaced. Approximately three months later, after switching to the park position, "shift to park" appeared on the instrument panel. The vehicle was taken to the same dealer where it was diagnosed that the shifter assembly needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired, but "power reduced" later displayed and the speed suddenly reduced to 10 mph. The cause of the failure was not determined. The manufacturer was notified of the failures. The failure mileage was 20,000.

I was traveling on a highway, going around 70 mph, as I was about to merge onto another freeway, my check engine light came on, and a notification came on that said reduced engine power. My car then dropped speed to about 40 mph. I was unable to accelerate the rest of my route to work. I topped at 20 mph. I checked my code reader and P2138 came up.

- Ontario, CA, USA

My Chevrolet 2016 Malibu, while driving on the highway, out of no where my car decreased in speed and my engine light came on. The screen said 'engine power reduced'. I was unable to drive over 30 mph. I pulled over, turned the vehicle on and off where I still was unable to accelerate. I immediately took it to the local Chevrolet dealership where they told me it was a 'gas pedal sensor that went out' and that this part is going out in all Malibu's.

For the past couple of weeks when my auto stop is engage the car turns completely off and stalls while stopped at a light I don't know what to do about this situation I think it's a car defect in multiple people have been stating they have been having the same issue with their same style of vehicle with the same issue

When going to start the vehicle with foot on the brake pedal and push start button it makes a click sound and shows a check engine light as well as stability control message appears in the dash. It's not an issue of a dead battery or faulty starter. It happens once or twice a day. When I come back about a hr later I again apply the brake pedal and push the start button and after a few tries of it reading the same check engine stability control message it starts up. Along with this happening when I'm driving and come to a stop at a stop sign or traffic light, the auto stop engages as it should only the vehicle completely dies. But when I let off the brake it doesnt start back up as normal. Only to have to put it in park and apply the brake and hope it starts back up. After reading into this on various forums this seems to be a common recurring issue. Only no answers as to why or what causes this problem.
