Parts $41.27 Labor $280 Total $321.27 @Gordon Chevrolet. 3) Engine light has come on and off since I purchased the car.

While pulling into a parking lot, the brake pedal failed to push down, making me to have to exert force on the brake pedal to stop the car. I had been hearing a "grinding" sound but thought it was from the brake pads needing to be replaced and this was incident was from the calipers being over extended. After replacing the brake pads with the new ones (the old ones were only half the size of the new ones and did not need replacing) the brake pedal still did not push easily. I took the vehicle to the repair shop I always use and they affirmed there was a problem and gave the price for the parts (908.37 for the brake vacuum pump and $107.98 for the Brake Fluid Exchange with ABS). There is visible damage to the end of the camshaft from the pump freezing and being torn apart by the camshaft as a result. The total cost of the repairs was $3409.96, which was unexpected. I was quoted $1134 and change originally for parts and labor at the beginning of the problem being addressed.

Car accelerates on its own while I-??m driving. In addition, without warning the car engines suddenly reduced speed. This has accrued while I-??m on the freeway without any warnings.

Reduced Engine Power while driving on highway. Car does not go over 20 MPH.

- New Canaan , CT, USA

I was going 70mph on the highway, when I got a sudden alarm from the car saying "reduced power". The car would not accelerate and started slowing rapidly, almost resulting in a collision. The car would not go more than 20mph. I had to pull off to the shoulder, restart the car several times, and then was able to get the power to come back, but the check engine light remained on.

2017 Malibu with less than 36000 miles, complete shutdown of all power. Engine auto stop shuts down engine but does not restart. Have sat in traffic for 15 minutes or longer before the engine would start. When restarted there is no volume on the radio. Has happened 10 to 12 times in the last 2 months. Dealership said they could not recreate issue and gave a load bull as to why it may happen...

- St Cloud , MN, USA

I was driving on the interstate and the dashboard said Engine loss of power. It was very dangerous because it reduced my speed drastically in the middle of traffic! My whole family was in the car and this is the 3rd time this has happened to me since purchasing the car. And now my check engine light is on. I don-??t understand why this happens, but defective parts that create this problem put our lives in danger! Why is there not a recall on this" This is very important and should be fixed immediately! I almost wasn-??t here to write this so please show me and other owners of these cars in these model years how to not die in your vehicles please"!

This is my second complaint and possibly the last, in my first complaint I reported the problem with the car after showing a stability track warning light then slowing to a 20 mph velocity in a snow storm, then my adventure with the vacuum pump shattering, thus no vacuum, no brakes, on the highway going 70 mph. After that scare, it had a crank no start problem. That's where I ended my first complaint. Part 2, I collected my stimulus money and had my 2017 Chevy Malibu ls towed to a Chevy dealership. After the service manager asked me for the spare fob, I asked him could that be the problem the batteries went low and the fob keys had to be re-programed. He stated probably, I went home hoping it would be something minor. 3 weeks later I get a call from the service manager that he wanted to go through the diagnostic inspection results with me, I ask him was it something minor, he said we haven't been able to work on the crank, no start problem cause you have low compression on one of you engine cylinders you need a new engine, that's not minor 72,365 miles, new engine, estimate $8,224.80. Still paying the bank for it..this generation Malibu's are not even close to good. I own a 1994 Chevrolet Silverado with 135,000 miles bought it brand new, runs great, the cost cutting is being sacrificed for quality, and us consumers are getting the low end.

Speed reduced on freeway to 20mph, speed reduced warning with check engine light on.

- Sacramento, CA, USA

As we were going 75mph down the highway the vehicle started deaccelerating with the check engine light with the following message appearing on the screen 'engine power reduced' we had to quickly pull over to the side of the road to avoid having a wreck. After shutting the car off for a little bit the message disappeared. After looking into this there a multiple people with the same car and same issues, but no recall or investigation has been started.

- Hopkinsville, KY, USA

Vehicle randomly presents an engine failure making impossible any acceleration. Engine light comes on as well as the traction control light. It displays a message 'engine power is reduced'. this forces the driver to have to pull over regardless of traffic or unsafe conditions. The car has to be turned off and back on after approximately 20 seconds in order to reset the traction light only to off, to be able to continue driving.

August 31, 2019 - purchased a 2017 Chevy Malibu at the dealership April 4th, 2021 - my car had a rough running engine with the indicator lamp on. I immediately took my car to be inspected (attached below), a technician found dtc P0300 set along with a misfire low compression in one or more cylinders. He concluded the condition was caused by a damaged piston. My mechanic showed me a bulletin from GM describing this exact issue and then recommend me to get in touch with the dealership that I bought the car and or the manufacturer. April 5th, 2021 - the GM reps that I talked to concluded that my warranty ended and denied any assistance from the manufacture. They claimed to not find the bulletins that I attached to this form.

While driving on multiple accusations my engine light would come on and go off within minutes and not return till I turn the car back on or while driving later on in the day or days after seeing the light come so I was unable to bring it in to get checked out properly. A month passed when the issue appeared and when I decided to go into the dealership to possibly trade in my car the light was not appearing for days beforehand and things were normal till a a couple days after I left the dealership my car read on the dash 'reduced engine power ' I wasn't able to accelerate quick enough in the middle of traffic on military trail and belvedere I had to pull through a walmart parking lot to avoid on coming traffic and bring the car to my home close by very slow and sluggish due to not getting any acceleration from me pressing on the pedal. The dealership wants to replace my fuel pump system at a cost however it has a current recall for my specific make and model.

This issue has happened twice. The first time it happened it was in motion on the highway and a message appeared on the dashboard, "engine power is reduced." It began deaccelerating from 75 mph to 20 mph. I had to quickly pull over the car to the side of the highway and I cut the car off. I truned the car back on and the message went away. The second time it occurred the vehicle was in motion on the highway again when the engine light came on in the dashboard with a message, "engine power is reduced." The car was going 80 mph when the message came on this time. I reached out to the Chevrolet dealership and they confirmed there was not a recall. I did some research on the issue and discovered that there have been other people with the same vehicle who have experienced the same issue.

I purchased this vehicle for my son in January 2017. 3/27/2021, he was driving it and lost power on the interstate. The vehicle would not go over 25 miles an hour. He had to stop on the side of the road and let it sit for a while then restart it. It happened 4 additional times within 30 minutes.

On 03/10/21, I was driving North on a busy highway. I approached the stop light and reduced speed. I came to a full stop and the car shut off completely. The check engine light came on briefly, then lost all electrical power. I had no hazard lights, no radio, no dashboard, nothing. After being stranded for 5 min like that at a very dangerous left lane stop, the car finally restarted. Called onstar immediately to scan the car for codes - they found none. The issue of the car intermittently shutting down like that has happened multiple times since October of 2020. Taken the car to Chevrolet dealership multiple times and was told they cannot find anything wrong. I currently have it at the dealership and am being told they can find nothing wrong despite four different people in my car witnessing it happen to me more than once and my providing a log of every time it's happened.
