On or about July 1, 2014 I received a recall notice from GM, safety recall 14152, but was informed the part was not available to perform the recall service. Since that time I have called the local dealership, apple Chevrolet in tinley park, Illinois (708) 336-3163, where I purchased the vehicle, on two occasions and was informed the part is still not available. Today, during my call to the dealership to again check on the status of the part, after being informed the part is still not available, I was directed to call General Motors directly and was given the number 1-800-222-1020. After speaking to the representative at General Motors, [xxx], and giving the last eight digits of my vehicle identification number, I was informed that the part is available. GM is saying the part is available and my local dealership is saying the part is not available. Can someone please help me? information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

There is something wrong with the steering that cause the cruise control to accelerate while driving, there is issues with braking in the, the transmission is sticking or not always working, and the car shakes or requires you to force turn it at low speeds like up exist ramps. This has gone on for quite a while I have called several dealerships and the main number on the recalls and they just keep telling me no parts are available. This is my only car and I have no money for another how do they expect people to depend on their cars or survive when transportation is needed. Why aren't these parts being made faster or why aren't people provided any other solutions?

While driving 50 mph down the highway in my 2008 Chevy Malibu (106,800 miles) the traction control light came on and information center read "engine power deduced" and my car slowed to 20 mph almost immediately with no warning to me or the vehicles behind me. Luckily there was a wide shoulder and I veered off to avoid being rear ended as I had my 3 child all in car seats in back. I called the dealership but as they weren't open yet, I did what I had to as one of my children is a special needs child and was almost time for his seizure medication and drove the car on to my mother in laws 4 miles away. I drove down the shoulder of the highway for approximately 1 mile to make it to my mother in laws turn then the next 3 miles to her house was less congested with traffic luckily. The car had a slight shake to it almost and something seemed like it was rattling almost under the hood but a slow rattle not like a knocking sound tho. After the dealership opened I took the car to them after shutting off and restarting car ran normal again. They said they could find the issue in the history. Chevy told us the cam shaft solenoid had internal failure and needed replaced. We got it fixed and changed spark plugs and did a small tune up to make sure that was the whole issue solved. Last night just a day later the same thing happened as my husband was driving the car. This is an issue with many newer Chevy cars some still with just 50,000 miles on them. It is a major safety concern and needs to be addressed with GM in a recall I am afraid before more lives are taken due to faulty engineering and parts! please look into this further! Chevy also found a crack in the exhaust manifold that they are replacing for free already as well as multiple other recalls we are awaiting parts for.

I stopped at a gas station to put gas in my car and, when I attempted to put car in park, it remained in drive and would not stop. Upon taking my car to the auto shop, at the dealer where I purchased the car, they indicated to me that the transmission shift cable was damaged and needed to be replaced. Upon further research, there was a recall for this issue by GM (recall # 14152). However, my vehicle was not specifically recalled even though I am now having the exact issue that has been listed in the recall. The auto shop is saying that I will have to pay for repairs related to this problem. I do not believe that I should have to do so.

The power door locks do not lock or unlock when the vehicle gear shift is put in park or drive. The first lock became disabled while under warranty and was repaired.. now the remaining (3) three power locks do not function.. they stopped functioning when the warranty ended... I did not repair them because the cost is a few hundred dollars per lock.. I have to turn the car ignition off while the transmission is in drive and then put the shifter in park. Otherwise I have to go around to each door and lock them manually.. very embarrassing.. not certain of the possible safety hazard though.
