Stabilitrak code appears on dashboard - causing low or no acceleration, shaking when still and while in park.

My Malibu only has 34K miles on it and is meticulously cared for. On August 10th, I went to start it. It would not start or turn on the lights. So I trickle charged it and 4 hours later when it finally turned on I had the battery checked. The battery is fine. However, the stabilitrac is not coming back on along with my cruise control and lane assist. The back up camera, back up camera lines, crash aversion sensors, and screen were not working properly for the majority of the 10th of August after the car came back on. The sreen has had issues in the past as well with not turning on along with showing the proper time, temperature, and more.

- Salem, OR, USA

The main issue with my vehicle is that when the vehicle is parked and I turn the car off the front panel will say that the vehicle is not in the parked position and won't allow the car to turn off. I have to push the start button on and off multiple times and shift the car in and out of park before the sensor can gauge that the car is in the parked position and will allow the car to be turned off. This often takes 5-20 min. When this happens the radio won't turn off, the dash board won't turn off and car won't shut down. Also the car often gives me incorrect readings on the dash board.

My husband and I have a 2016 Chevy Malibu. We bought it back in 2016 brand new. Since then, this has happened to us multiple times. We'll be on a busy highway then all of a sudden in the middle of fast paced traffic the car suddenly won't go above 30mph. It's very scary. The third time it was winter and I had all my younger siblings in the car, and I was pregnant (all under the age of 13) and we were on I-94 and it suddenly wouldn't go over 30mph again leaving us temporarily stranded until a family member had to come pick us all up. We brought it in and paid about $500 out of pocket due to throttle sensory issues. Now I am currently stuck at home today (5/6/2020) once again because it just happened again even though we got the issue fixed a couple months ago. Yesterday I was on a county road in the middle of the country with my infant/baby in the car and it happened again, the engine light went on and it said 'engine power is reduced' and would not go over 30mph. It took me an hour to get to an 'autozone' shop at this crawling speed with my flashers on (and a restless screaming baby) to have them read the engine code.. sure enough they told me it is a throttle sensor issue. This is exhausting and dangerous!

I purchased 2016 Malibu 10/2016 and after having the car for 6months the check engine/reduce speed lights starting coming on. I have taken it back over 20times and the issues was never fixed. I ask could they just replace the call since they are not able to fixed it. So, and still having this issues. GM extended the recall and I took it back in yesterday March 18, 2020. I was told that my car was fixed and to pick it up. So, I get there didn't make it out the lot. So, I return back to the service desk and I was told my transmission is going out. So I ask why this isn't on my service sheet I was informed that it was wiped out and that I had to request it. Putting me back in danger. This has been a headache. I file a lemon law complaint and they offer my 4500 and I owe 18,000 on a car that have been giving me issues from the day one. GM offering to settle out for 4500 is admitting fought

While driving to my job and I pressed on the pedal brake, it felt like the brakes was having trouble to brake so I had to brake hard and drive carefully. It would make a sound when I would press down on the pedal. Took it to a mechanic and he told me that the ABS is broken and that's what giving me a hard time to brake. He checked all of my brakes are still good and nothing wrong with them.

So I feel like there should be a recall if I had to read a lot of stories that are similar to mine. My vehicle was driving fine and then I get a signal on my dash as I am going up a hill saying that "engine power reduced" and my check engine light came on. I'm in the middle of a street trying to get to work and I could barely get up the hill. Thank goodness there wasn't a lot of traffic that time of day. I managed to make it to a store to get it checked out and the said something about a throttle unit replacement. It is supposed to control my acceleration. This is quite dangerous to keep happening and nothing be done about it when I have seen multiple complaints on it. I just wanted to share my story too and hopefully something can be fixed.
