Every time I push the brake pedal and the auto stop engages the engine turns off, but when you take your foot off of the brake pedal the whole dash display goes out, including the turn signals. It takes about a minute for the dash to come back on. This happens several time a day, and it has been going on for at least two years. It scares me when this happens.

For the past two years my vehicle has been to the dealership 6 times for the same issue. On multiple occasions the car while traveling both on the highway and in the city the check engine light comes one and it goes into reduced power mode. On the highway this can be a huge issue. After multiple 'fixes' it's seems to be ok. However on 10/3/2019 while sitting at a red light the auto stop feature kicked on. Nothing new there however when I took my foot off the brake the car completely stalled and the doors all unlocked. After about 10 seconds it started back up again. Now the auto stop doesn't kick on at all and the car will not let me use auxiliary power. The car is only 3 years old and shouldn't have this many issues. When I take it to the dealer they put it on the computer and say nothing is wrong. What is it going to take for GM to fix this issue in these Malibu's" is someone going to have to be injured"

I own a 2016 Chevy Malibu and one of its features is an auto stop/start feature in the car. When this car enters this mode when I take my foot off of the break it is supposed to start again but when I take my foot off of the break it will just completely shut down, when I try to start the car again it will just stall. I was involved in an accident on June 9th 2019 where the car cut off and rolled back into another vehicle. This is just one occasion of the car cutting off on me and becoming immobile. I was told it was a battery issue and a wiring issue I've gotten both addressed but it still happens. I've received a letter from Chevy that may address the issue but I have to see. My car currently won't start. Today is September 24,2019

I have had my vehicle for 2 years since day 1 I have had issues with the vehicle from control arms, electrical in doors and car systems, throttle body, stability traction control. I think the car has been in the shop well over 12 times with at least 5 times being the throttle body where the car just looses power and your unable to drive more than 40 mph. It generally would happen on the freeway. I would pull over and have to turn my car off and sit and then turn it back on. The above issues with this car is just to name a few. By the way I purchased the vehicle at 27,000 miles so there is no reason why these issues should continuously be happening. I have called Chevy numerous of times complaing that this vehicle is something wrong with it. I believe they have just about replaced every part except for the brakes, engine and transmission and I a sure those are going to be next. I could go on and on about this vehicle however, it is definitely something wrong. I just took it in for check engine light again and noise from rear end sounding like a strut. And they found issue with key thob causing check engine light, leaking strut, and bad wheel bearings. Now that just adds more to the list. Not to mention I get home and the check engine light is back on again and the noise is slightly still there. I have plenty of records I just have to much to upload here, but if someone could please look into my situation. This has truly been a nightmare. We cannot even drive the car on the freeway to far because we are scared we may get stuck.

I park, place the shifter into park and turn the car off but a message appears on the gauge cluster screen saying shift into park. The engine is off but the lights and radio stay on. The shifter is locked and will not move. The same screen shows that the car is in park before I shut the car off, I can feel the transmission shifting too. I have to turn the car back on and run through the gears and back off several times to make it shut off. Seems to happen more often on shorter trips. I went to the dealer they have a part on order seems to be a known issue but I'm just out of warranty. I have had the car for 2.5 years just over 35K miles and it just started.

This issue happens at random times. When I crank up, when I'm at a traffic light, or even just at a stop sign, sometimes my car will turn completely off. It will crank back up, sometimes, but sometimes it takes quite a few times. Also, again as I crank up. It goes back to off. Instead of going to auto stop, it will cut completely off too. I have no engine light or any other lights that come on to alert me that something is wrong but it happens randomly and has been happening more frequently and it is concerning. Also, it feels like the car is kicking or firing back now when I am driving. This is random also.
