My car stabilitrak comes on every other 20 mins when driving. If I try to accelerate my cars check engine light will come on and then say engine power reduced almost stopping my vehicle on the interstate I can only drive it in town under 40 mph. Diagnostic showed nothing and of course no recalls but every recall Chevy has with the Malibu fits my model. Very disappointing. It has become very dangerous. Today I was headed to pick up my daughter from daycare and my brake pedal became very stiff and I could not stop causing me to roll through an intersection thankfully it was a green light and let the car roll until it stopped. I was terrified. I have not had the car long and it is a headache.

The contact owns a 2016 Chevrolet Malibu. Within five months of owning the vehicle, the contact took it to more than one dealer because the vehicle jerked and made an abnormal noise. Integrity Chevrolet of chattanooga (2110 chapman rd, chattanooga, tn, 423-535-9455) and mountain view Chevrolet (310 E 20th St, chattanooga, tn, 423-266-0181) were contacted and the transmission was replaced within six months of owning the vehicle; however, the transmission continued to make an abnormal noise. The cause of the failure could not be determined. In addition, the brake pedal traveled to the floorboard without warning.

The manufacturer was notified and opened a case. The vehicle was not repaired and the failures continued. The contact was waiting for a response from the manufacturer.

2/2/18. Was traveling at 47 mph when a truck stopped in front of me. I was approximately 10 car lengths away. I hit the brake to stop, felt the pedal vibrate for a few seconds and then the pedal went to the floor and the vibration went away. Pumped the pedal again and slowed the vehicle and was able to get over to the right before hitting the truck. The air bags did not deploy, the auto stop feature did not work. The onstar did not activate.the roads were dry, and the road was flat. GM sent someone to retrieve the data from the computers, we have copies of the report. The data shows 5 seconds before the crash. According to the braking data, the brake was applied at 47 mph and the vehicle slowed but did not stop. After getting the vehicle back from the body shop, we had the codes pulled and found numerous codes in the different modules. There was a code U0415-71- invalid data received from electronic brake control module present as a history code. We took the vehicle to a Chevy dealer and they confirmed all the same codes. We had to take the car back to the original dealer that did the body work in case it was accident related. The second dealer is claiming that even though codes are present there is nothing they can find wrong. I believe the ABS failed on this vehicle and was the direct cause of the accident.

Brand new 2016 Malibu 30 miles off the lot and 100% of the time the car bucks when braking. From 3rd gear to first gear the car engine pulls back the car abruptly while the RPM's rise almost 1000 back down with each shift. I brought it to Chevrolet 3 times as well as called the hot line #. after twice being told that no one can find what im talking about they turned the story to well Chevy engines do that so don't worry about it. That its the eco engine conserving power. I have replicated the situation to the dealership and in return, nothing was fixed. I looked online to see if other people who bought this car had this issue and haven't turned up anything. The car is worst in stop and go traffic and apparently they say unless a recall in issued theirs nothing to be done. City driving it happens 100% of the time when the brake is applied. Highway, only when having to slow down enough to hit the lower gears. I feel that this issue is also wearing away the brakes faster than usual. This car has a checkered history with recalls and my model year even had transmission issues and yet I'm told to deal with it. I have been sure to make a paper trail of bringing it in since I drove it off the lot as well as every time I've spoken off the books about it to Chevy employees.I know there is a problem with this vehicle as well as others. It seems as if the timing of the downshift even could be the issue but I don't know and they won't even look at it unless the check engine light comes on or a recall is issued. And when the car bucks sometimes the brakes don't have a tight enough grip and causes the car to pounce an inch or two.
