I was informed by Chevrolet dealership on Tennessee St. in Tallahassee, Florida, that the issue was with the battery monitor sensor. The car will, however, suddenly cut off at a stoplight when you release the brake to apply the gas, with no error lights to populate on the dash, which puts myself, my kids, and others at serious risk of being rear-ended by a car behind us.

Vehicle occasionally hesitates to accelerate past 1st or 2nd gear & produces no power until the turbo & gears finally kick in. Has put myself & my passengers (my children) in danger of traffic-??s way while trying to merge into traffic from a stop. Have had to pull to the side until the car is able to go past 5-15 miles per hr. Have taken the vehicle for inspection to Chevrolet of Watsonville & the tech there was unable to replicate the issue & was told to take it back when present. The issue recently happened again late evening but then resolved on its own when I planned to take the following morning. The vehicle has horrible MPG ranging from 18-24MPG when the rated MPG is 27-36MPG. I don-??t understand how I am supposed to resolve this issue if the problem doesn-??t persist when I am able to finally get an appointment for the vehicle to get seen. This issue is very concerning & would like help as I am nearing the manufacturer 100k warranty expiration mileage. Also There are no service lights present on the vehicle.

I am making a complaint because there is a major deficiency that has put my safety at risk. The component of the vehicle that has a defect is the transmission. When the car is shifted in drive it will either stall and jerk forward, not jerk forward and not move forward from seconds to minutes at a time, and/or move forward about 50ft and stall again. I was making a right turn on a major road, speed limit being 40 MPH and the vehicle stalled and did not go forward until 20-30 seconds later. Vehicles were able to see me before getting closer and were able to change lanes however this is unacceptable. I had my two year old nephew in the car and this could have been a fatal accident. I have taken it to twice to be repaired and this problem has yet to be a fix. I can get invoices and documents to show the -??repairs-?? however this problem exist and needs an solution.

Currently have 109,330 miles on my 2019 Malibu LT It-??s very obvious that the transmissions in these cars are no good. My car accelerates slowly whenever it feels like it and entering the highway or any road to be honest, is like jumping off of a plane with no parachute, praying you don-??t hit the bottom and die. Its scary! It jerks horribly at times while accelerating (along with slow acceleration). If I push the gas pedal more, the car-??s RPMs revs high and the car shoots off like rocket then starts to accelerate slowly seconds after the hard take off. Someone is going to die at the hands of GM because the problem is being ignored! Please help us! Check the vehicles! See what the issue is! It-??s not just -??something simple-??. Yet y-??all are constantly rolling these cars out to customers. Feels like robbery!

In the past week, I tried turning off my vehicle, but received the message "shift to park". this has happened three times, thus far (11/6, 11/8, 11/13). The car is already in park, but won't turn off, unless I continually shift, or restart the car several times, otherwise, it continues to run with the message displayed. After several attempts, it finally turns off. This is absolutely horrifying! is this a safety issue, and if, so, is GM addressing this issue and notifying owners of this problem and what procedures to take" I have not received any recall notice regarding this problem. Is my car safe to drive? is this something the dealership can address" I do not want to be somewhere and not be able to start my car. I start it was the battery becaused I received an email from onstar stating the battery was critically low on the 6 of November. I purchased a new battery on November 9, 2023, thinking this would resolve the problem. It did not!

CVT transmission is already bad on this vehicle with only 114,000 miles on it and it-??s a safety hazard. And the expense to replace it costs $3500 and up for rebuilt and $7500 for brand new!!!! This is unacceptable and outrageous. I was told by several mechanics that this car and these transmissions are junk and have a bad reputation. There needs to be a recall. I still owe on this car and shouldn-??t have to stick that kind of money into repairs. Shame on GM!!! Next car I buy is going to be Toyota! Or non American junk.

I have a 2019 chevrolet malibu. When I stop the car and shift into park the "Shift to park " lite comes on. This is very annoying because you have re-shift into "park" several times before the lite goes off. This is very dangerous because you don't know if the vehicle is really in "park".

2nd time putting car in shop to fix the parking sensor. When you place the vehicle in park get a alert to place vehicle in park. Had it repaired once and problem is back. Have to shift to park several times before it will work properly. Already paid once to repair it and the dealer said it's a common problem. I think a recall is needed. I called the dealer and the service advisor said a new support bracket is needed. I called GM to complain and they said they issued a service alert to it's dealers on how to fix it. But refuse to cover the cost of repair. I feel a recall is a fair solution. I can not safely park the car with out worrying if it truly is in park.
