On Dec 9 2016 I was driving on hwy 169 in mn and my 2010 Malibu displayed service ESC than flashed power steering then ESC off then I lost power steering and it has not regained even after all the restarts been couple weeks now still there searched the internet seems I am not the only one car has 180,000 miles but serviced regularly so yes I think this should be a recall. Steering is pretty important when driving. Any info pertaining to the Malibu steering.

While driving the vehicle my power steering stopped working at low speeds. This was as I was turning, so it caused quite a bit of panic. I thought this was a one-time issue, however 2 months later, I am driving to school and taking a turn when it happens again, once again this issue caused me to be in a unsafe situation, loss of power steering at low speeds. I am a female therefore cannot generate the effort needed to turn the wheel when the power steering goes out. I researched and found that the 2009 model year has a tsb on it, however my vehicle which has exactly the same symptoms does not.

The vehicle's electric power steer failed with no warning while my daughter was driving along a normal Suburban road. This created a dangerously unsafe driving condition as she could barely turn the steering wheel. Fortunately there was no tragedy that resulted, but the car is not safe to drive and we towed it to our home then to a GM store. This is a safety issue that should be recalled as it is well known problem within GM and public forums across. I was informed that GM has created a special policy #15356 to address this issue when I was at the GM store, extending the warranty, they said it was only to 150K miles & our vehicle has 159K miles so we weren't covered. I asked if there was any maintenance that we could have done to prevent this, there wasn't any procedure. Further research has shown that there is no set mileage that this can occur due to the fact that is a faulty design & not normal wear and tear ! this really needs to be a recall due to the safety ramifications when the failure occurs and the steering becomes very difficult to operate creating a dangerous situation and is sure to the cause of accidents/ injury/etc.

While driving about 30 mph on city street, chime rang and power steering cut out. Car was still steerable without power assist, but became much more difficult at low speeds. Sudden maneuver at slower speed would be nearly impossible. Power steering came back on next time I started the car, but cut out again after a short time. I am aware that there are recalls for the exact same problem with the previous four model years of the same series of Chevrolet Malibu. The mileage on the car is about 48,000. Clearly, the 2010 Malibu needs to be recalled as well.

I was notified by my oldest daughter that the steering wheel in her car would not turn and that she was stuck in the middle of the street, she was in motion at the time of the incident, she and several other people were able to push the car to the side of the road. I instructed her to turn the car off and that I would have it towed to the service station that it was purchased from.

I was on my way to work and I had to stop to get gas. Everything was fine. I pulled away form the pump and proceeded to the end of the driveway. When I left the parking lot to pull into traffic, the steering wheel became extremely difficult to turn. I was driving less than 5 mph. The traction control light was on, ESC message, and service power steering system were activated. I drove back home and went to work in my other vehicle. 162,409 miles. I purchased the car brand new in February 2010. All oil changes and tire rotations have been completed at a Chevy dealership. I've only purchased tires, two batteries, and windshield wipers for my car until last week. That was the engine coolant sensor. Until now I always bragged and said that my Malibu was the best car ever because I never had any issues with it.

Right now I have the service ESC and service traction light on again for the 3rd time. I took each time to Chevy classic in grapevine tx and they told me no codes the 1st time, took it to clay cooley in irving--light came on then no codes they showed. Today 4-15=16 light came on again and I took it to classic Chevy and they found 3 codes this time. They say I will have to pay for this! I should not since there was an open recall on 5/14/2014 for 2010 Malibu's. my car is doing this now !@!!@ it needs to be fixed at no charge to me!! I feel like this is the most dangerous car on the road for me and my daughter. I don't want to be a statistic if we have a car crash and it was all because Chevy kept making excuses to not fix my crap car for me. The other recall was the brake system not illuminating I got that letter a little too late. Someone rear ended me in Oct 2012 while I was stopped at a red light. Maybe those stupid back brake lights were not working then!!!!!! someone at classic or clay cooolye Chevy needs to fix this ESC light on my car and fix all the recalls for free. I also have an eps recall letter that was sent to me but someone at Chevy told me the light has to come on for them to fix it. This is ridiculous. My car needs to be fixed for all these problems it has no matter if the light is on or not. But the light is on for service ESC and traction right now!@ GM or Chevy needs to pay for it and fix this car. The consumer stated the dealer did not completely fix the problem. They only lubricated and she continued to experience problems with the brakes, service light and ESC light. Also, the front axle was leaking.

At idle and acceleration, the steering wheel will move back and forth.

The power steering in the vehicle will randomly stop working making it very difficult to steer. Once the car is shut off for a few minutes and turned back on the power steering will work as it should until it randomly goes out again. This is dangerous and should be recalled! the recall only covered up to 2009 and should of included 2010.
