I was driving about 65 mph when my car displayed a warning on the dash that the power is reduced and the traction control and engine light came on simultaneously. The speed reduced to 20 and would not accelerate. Pulled off the highway and shut off the car. I restarted it after a minute and the traction light went off but the check engine light remained on. The car then drove at normal speed the rest of the way home. This is terrifying as I didn't have a shoulder to pull off and had to pull in someones driveway. Luckily nobody plowed into me. I am now afraid to drive my car anywhere

Car won't start and then get a message saying stabilitrak. Car has under 60,000 miles on it.

- Cleveland, TN, USA

Driving and my car wouldn't stop because my stablitrak and ABS system malfunction and now the dealer is saying I need a vacuum pump and throttle change. This is a know issues in the GM cars just seen on google that a global letter was sent out Aug of 2019 about this issues but I never received it. These cars should be recalled and we should be given our money back. I have 2017 Chevy Malibu and I feel this premeditated murder because they know it's a issue and I could have lost my life July 30 2020 at 959pm

Everytime I stop at a red light or brake the vehicle(when coming to a stop in traffic)the car completely cuts off.the alert steering assist is reduced, drive with care constantly comes on whenever there is an auto stop and the car restarts. The radio and air would also turn off when auto stop is activated. This turn off also causes the radio screen to go black for a short time until it restarts. Which is a big problem and dangerous when driving in traffic. The normal auto stop would be somewhat silent, but when it turns back on now it hisses and turns back on. I also hear something as if water is passing through pipes after and/or during auto stop sometimes. Lastly, last night(7/8/20)I attempted to turn on my car and back out of my driveway. The car turned on but the check engine light came on. It did not allow me to shift into any gears or accelerate. I noticed the lights that illuminate, D, R, L, etc. Was not illuminating at that time when I attempted to shift gears. I then turned the car off but it stated shift to park. Note the car was in park. After I let it sit in park for a while I tried restarting the car and it restarted. The car shifted in to gears and accelerated. Note: The car allowed me to move the shift in and out of gears but it was not catching. The stopping issue wit the steering reduced alert started about two weeks ago(around June 25,2020). Hearing the water sound began around the the beginning of March 2020. Lastly the shifting issue began last night,7/8/20. When driving on the highway I do the speed limit 60-70 mph. On the city streets I drive the speed limit ranging 25mph-40 mph.

Car stalls while operating, car shuts down while driving and fails to restart without warning. "service stability" 'battery save mode' 'shift to park' all blink when this happens. I have experienced this problem several times over the past year. Car will also shut down when the vehicle is not in motion ie stop signs, traffic lights, stop & go traffic...etc. The car having no power that I can't even put my emergency lights on. This happens for the last time on 6/11/2020 cars brakes became tough to push could barely stop the car, once stopped the car lost all power shut off in the middle of a busy intersection I was almost rear ended. Car would not restart and had to be towed once again. All the same warning lights. My car is currently broke down and not starting at all. Also I have 2' of water in wheel well car leaks water into spare tire well. Car is molding due to this issue. This car model should be recalled. This could cause some horrible accident because of a malfunction/ defective part that was installed. This has happened to many many people. Please look into this. People are spending lots of money for repairs and rental cars. Im a single mother of 3 children, this car is suppose to be safe to drive. It's by far from that. The money I'm spending on a rental car so that I can go back and forth to work is not cheap.

Several times in the past month or so my car has displayed a warning that says engine power reduced, and even if you're going highway speed, will reduce your speed down to around 20 mph. The first time it happened, it was around 6pm in busy traffic on the highway, almost causing me to wreck. It stopped happening for a while, but now it has done it over 20 times in the past 48 hours. It only happens when your vehicle is in motion.

Lately when I stop at a light or intersection my vehicle auto stops but when I try to go the vehicle shuts off and will not start. I have to put on my flashers while in traffic and shut the vehicle on and off until it restarts. One of the warnings read stabil and another reads power shut off as well as battery saver active. I have taken it in but have been told they do not know what is wrong so they reset the system however, this dangerous issue remains. This started the beginning of March and has continued.

- Richmond, CA, USA

Vehicle stability track disabled and steering get stiff and hard to control. This is a known issue with this vehicle and 1000's of people have reported it. Dealer want to char $2,700 to fix for an issue that was reported as a dangerous and known to the manufacturer. The warning come on interment and makes it impossible to control specially at high speed. All other safety features such as accident warning or lane departure gets disabled

While driving 60mph on the highway, my car began beeping and displayed 'reduced engine power' on the screen. The traction light and engine light also came on. The cars speed was immediately reduced almost causing a serious accident as I was in the left lane on the highway with a semi behind and beside me. I was able to maneuver to the shoulder. I had to restart the car twice in order to be able drive it home. This was an absolutely terrifying situation. The check engine light is still on. Upon googling this issue, many people have had this problem and there has not been a recall! if my reaction time wasn't a fast as it was today, I would have been seriously hurt, or worse. GM needs to address this.

In August of 2019 my car wouldn't shift out of park. I had to have my car towed to a local Chevrolet dealership at night where it was there for a week this visit was for the gear shift to be replaced. October 2019 my car start stop feature made my car shut off in the middle of rush hour morning traffic this trip was said to be the charging system and the battery. In January 2020 I started to have the same issue with the car just stopping this time it was the electrical module I also had the oil changed and a all wheel alignment and I picked up my car and 10 days later my engine light came on so back to the Chevy dealership 2 days they say we fixed it. 48 hours later the engine light is back on. I was told that we just cleared the engine light in hope's that would just fix the problem so now 2 and half weeks later they still have my car. They have no clue of what's happening.

Reduced engine power first time this happened I was making a U turn at slow speeds when my dash displayed ' reduced engine power' check engine light came on as well as traction control light. I pulled over turned my car off and back on a few mins later later lights went away and car drove fine. ( November 2019 ) second time was mid February 2020 I was driving about 40 mph when same thing happened. Dash lights came on reduced engine power came back on and car slowed down to less the 20 mph within seconds. Once again I had to pull over turned my car on/off about 3 times in 20 mins for light to go away and car drive normal again. Third time today 2/27/20 at maybe 10 mph my dash lit up once again check engine light did not go away this time. But car drove fine afterwords luckily it hasn't happened on highway speeds or with my daughter in the car. All this in the last 3 months I bought my car with 20 miles June 1st 2017 and currently has 38K miles. This definitely has to be fixed before it causes serious accidents !

Reduced engine power started popping up on the dashboard and forcefully reduces speed to 20mph. Hundreds of Chevy owners are reporting this abnormalities recently and Chevrolet is concealing this manufacture defect.

While trying to accelerate down the on-ramp onto a highway all of a sudden I lost power and could not exceed 40mph. I almost got sideswiped while trying to merge into traffic but couldn't gain speed. Before abruptly pulling onto the shoulder the anti-skid and check engine lights came on along with a dash warning that stated :"engine power reduced". I took it to a vendor who searched the code my car produced and it was "P2138", which is "throttle/pedal position sensor/ switch D/ E voltage correlation". I searched this issue online to find a ton of similar if not the exact same issues with other Chevy Malibu.this is a very dangerous issue! I could have been seriously injured or killed.

At less than 32K miles I"ve had issue with the shift to park indicator, the radio random on and off regardless if car is running or parked and off and now multiple indicators for an emission issue car will suddenly loose power or stop. I have taken care for service on regular basis and have had service repairs done twice to supposedly fix computer board. Unfortunately, service either says they have rest it or can't find issues I describe. I will park the car and let GM have it before I get killed in traffic!!!!

The car will not start sometimes. Yesterday the lights and radio came on randomly while sitting in the garage with the fob in the house. Randomly shuts down while driving. The last time it was half way through an busy intersection. Had to push the car off the road.

- Edmond, OK, USA

For 3 months my 2017 Chevy Malibu has had the check engine light come on, and vehicle completely loose acceleration. At slow and high speeds with my 2 year old in the car. When the code is read it states it's the ECM P2138. This last time almost caused my vehicle to wreck with my family in the car. Chevy has yet to handle the issue and like most cars it's not covered on warranty so because Chevy has put out a faulty product we are being punished with high mechanical costs. This is not the first issue, I have have my Chevy almost 3 years and have had it in for sensor issues reading the key fob and my car stranding me hours from home and not starting, and again for sensory issues putting the vehicle into park. When confronting Chevy they state the issue with high cost to fix.

As I was driving on the interstate my check engine and traction control lights flashed on. All of a sudden the engine power down light lit up and I couldn't go above 30 mph. This has happened twice in the last week. Very scary when you are driving 60-70 mph on the interstate.
