Electronic stability control ESC light comes on and says service then ESC off. This is a safety issue with these cars. Seat belts fail. Safety issue. And our will not start because the anti theft system is activated for no reason. All of these are consistent with several other complaints. GM should be ashamed for selling vehicles that fail. Approximately 78,000 miles. Hopefully they will step up and correct these problems!!

The ESC light comes on and tells me it needs serviced. When this happens the brake lights stay on even if my foot is not on the brake. It also has a problem with the gear shift when trying to pull it out of park. This also disables my cruise control. This issue happens sometimes as soon as I start the car or after driving for a bit. I've taken the car in to get the problem fixed. They replaced the brake sensor and that worked for a week then the ESC light came back on and the brake lights stayed on.

Driving down the road my driver side tail light/brake light stops working randomly with bumpy roads. It goes out and will go back on usually within the next few bumps, and its not all the time.

We were driving and smelled a strong oder. Our eyes started to burn and we became nauseous and dizzy. When we arrived home we looked under the hood and saw a powerful gas seeping from the battery. I have a video of the gas coming from the adelco battery.

My low beam lights keep going out. I have changed the bulbs 4 times now with oem bulbs and also the wiring harness. At first it was the driver's side only now it's both.

The brake lights illuminate and stay on while driving when the brake pedal is not pressed. The brake lights turn off when the brake pedal is pressed. The car routinely displays "service ESC" and " service traction" messages.

Brake light constantly fluctuating without the brake being pressed, very dangerous for me and my child, headlights constantly going out specifically the front passenger side, almost go cause an accident and people thing I'm the one pressing the brakes, it does this when driving or when it parked, if I tap the brake it'll go off for a few second then come right back on. Also car keep throwing a code saying it's running rich even tho I can locate the problem I believe it has something to do with a senseor or wiring or the fuel injector, if there are any recalls for this vehicle I would lie for them to be fix all at once because I have to use this card daily for myself and my daughter and I just want it to be safe for my child and I as well as other drivers in the road.

The door lock gets stuck. The doors will lock by themselves. If you are in the car when this happens you will get stuck in your car for hours or you will have to crawl threw the window to get out. You can use the key to unlock the door, the lock does show in the "upright" position showing that it is unlocked, but the latch in the door does not unhook. This has happened about a half a dozen times in the last year, you never know when its going to happen either making this awful situation even worse.

I have an issue with the passenger side low beam headlight. I keeps burning out. I have replaced twice within a month period. Now I have to replace the wiring harness. Please recall I'm tired of taking the whole bumper off to replace a bulb.

- Tacoma, WA, USA

I have replaced my passenger headlights several times and blub keeps blowing out. I am tired of replacing it and very costly because of the labor it takes to replace it. All of sudden my power steering went out. I was pulling out of a parking stall and lost control of the car. I was able to put it back in drive to get the car out of the way. When I turned it off and restarted the car it drove normal. This is very dangerous.

Power steering. Is going out 3 days after getting for my birthday Feb salesman new it cuz he seen lights on dash but kept saying just drive it well my extra coverage warranty it does not cover crazy huh cuz I have been told2 times different mechanic that there was or should of been a recall. Driving and power steering goes out it is scary..

Electric power steering stopped working on match 18, 2019. I was turning right onto busy 4 lane city street from a parking lot, speed < 5 mph. Could not turn into right lane, struggled to swing car into left lane w/O crossing median. It was not simply a loss of power steering. I've driven old cars that never had power steering and this was 10 times more difficult to steer. I think I strained a muscle in my shoulder. Turning did not get easier as I accelerated, eventually to abt 40 mph. Struggled through 3 more hair raising turns (all turns made) before parking it at home. The ESC/tcs indicator came on in the parking lot and stayed on. Error msgs displayed were power steering, service ESC, service air bag. I heard no chimes. We gave my daughter this used car in 2015. She had complained a couple of weeks prior that steering sometimes became difficult. A search by VIN shows no incomplete recalls. It would be extremely useful to know if this car was part of a recall(s) and then repaired. If it was, it was repaired incorrectly, not all problems were resolved, or the parts used have a short life span. If GM isn't covering this situation, that's a crime. Also, if not covered by GM I'll take it to our regular mechanic since his work is more reliable than the local dealership's. if my baby had been hurt in this death trap, heads would've rolled - metamorphically of course. I'll also be consulting a lawyer.

I was driving when all of a sudden the steering went out. It says ESC and power steering on my dash.

There is a problem with the fuse box located in the trunk. My car has completely lost engine power while driving on multiple occasions. Fuel pump, alternator, and battery have needed replaced. There is a short in or near this rear fuse box. Fuel pump relay has been replaced, and connections greased. Temporarily fixed, then a few days later shuts off while running. From researching, this appears to be extremely common with this model across multiple years, with the wire leading to the fuel pump relay burning up and shorting. Clearly poor wiring. At least three times my car has completely shut down while in motion with no warning at all. Multiple crank/no start situations as well. My next option is to replace the entire fuse block, but that will not fix wiring design. Have been towed multiple times in a short period of time.

On the highway going 65 mph, the engine shut off without warning but the battery/electronics were still on. I safely stopped the car on the side of the road. The check engine + ABS + traction control lights came on simultaneously. The car would not start. I finally had to call a tow company. No mechanic knows how to fix it. Upon further research, many owners of the same make model and model year range suffered similar situations. The car still won't start till now.

Brake lamp recall for these models do not work. I noticed the issue recently while driving home from work at around 55 mph at night. My brake lights are on, while my foot is off of the brake pedal. When I place my foot on the brakes, the brake lights go off. This is a serious driving hazard. I've taken the car to get the recall handled, but noticed this morning, that my brake lights are still illuminating when my foot is off the brake pedal.

- Marietta, GA, USA

I have been having trouble with the electric power steering in my 2010 Malibu. It happens while I am driving and I cannot move my vehicle at all. I have to place my hazards on in the middle of any type of roadway and shut my vehicle off and turn it back on. Sometimes the problem continues, of I'm lucky it'll reset and not happen for a few days. This has happened more than 30 times now.

Door locks not working right, people inside vehicle unable to exit unless they climb out the windows as doors seem to unlock but wont open from inside or outside the vehicle. This is a issue because in the event of the crash you wouldn't be able to open the doors to escape. Dealership says my car is fine but I have to climb in and out of the window each day for work.
