2009 Chevrolet Malibu Electrical System

DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD THE DASH LIGHT WILL JUST GO OFF AND ON, THE POWER DOOR LOCKS STOP WORKING THE POWER WINDOWS STOP WORKING THE RADIO WILL JUST TURN ON WHEN IT WANTS TO AND THE VOLUME CONTROL WILL NOT WORK SO WHEN IT TURNS ON ITS AT THE PEAK VOLUME. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. CHEVROLET WILL NOT DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. ITS PAST ITS WARRANTY. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 CHEVROLET MALIBU. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH, THE VEHICLE WOULD DOWN SHIFT WHILE ACCELERATING. AS A RESULT, THE VEHICLE WOULD SUDDENLY DECELERATE. IN ORDER TO SHIFT THE VEHICLE BACK INTO ITS PROPER GEAR, THE CONTACT HAD TO SHIFT THE VEHICLE INTO MANUAL MODE AND USE THE OPTIONAL PEDAL SHIFTS. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE BRAKE LIGHTS WOULD ILLUMINATE WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS NOT BEING DEPRESSED AND THE TRACTION CONTROL AND ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL LIGHTS INTERMITTENTLY ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. AN AUTHORIZED DEALER WAS NOTIFIED AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE BODY CONTROL MODULE MAY NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO HAVE THE FAILURE DIAGNOSED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 59,000.

I HAVE A 2009 MALIBU, RECENTLY EXPERIENCING ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS WITH THE WINDOWS. THIS PROBLEM CREATES A SAFETY RISK FOR ME AND MY FAMILY. THE WINDOWS WILL NOT GO UP OR DOWN, THE REPAIR SHOPS STATES THERE WAS A BLOWN FUSE WHICH THEY SAID WAS REPLACED. WINDOWS WORKED FOR A WHILE. SAME PROBLEM OCCURRED IN SAME DAY. CAR REMAINED IN SHOP FOR A WEEK. DROVE CAR FOR ABOUT A WEEK PROBLEM OCCURRED AGAIN, THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD, HOPE REAL PROBLEM IS DISCOVERED. ALSO COMPLAINED ABOUT SQUEAKY BRAKES BUT THERE WAS NO PROBLEM FOUND. *TR

I NOTICED WHEN I WOULD USE THE RIGHT TURN SIGNAL THAT AFTER COMPLETING THE TURN THE SIGNAL WOULD NOT SHUT OFF. IT WOULD MAKE THE "CLICK" SOUND BUT THE LIGHT WOULD STILL FLASH. THIS HAPPENED ABOUT 50% OF THE TIME. THE DEALER REPLACED THE TURN SIGNAL SWITCH TODAY AND IT SEEMS TO BE OK. *TR
