Problems with 2008 Chevrolet Malibu STEERING

Power steering is not working just in the last week. sometimes it works but the steering wheel shakes even when i'm not moving the car. other times it doesnt work at all.

Electric steering goes out while driving. was a recall for this in 2014 for some of the 2008 malibu but dealership say not my vehicle even though that's the problem its having.

My electric locks are locking and unlocking randomly and the power steering goes out with message on dash. there is no powersteering until i turn the car off and back on then last for a undetermined amount of time.

Power steering sensor kit failure, known issue on this gm model and there was a recall for this year model on this issue yet didn't cover this vin number, it is my belief that the recall for this issue wasnt wide enough to include this vin # part replacement p/n 23232310 $708.73

When i start my car, the steering wheel is locked up and a message stating "power steering" comes across the main screen. my vehicle was stationary. the issue only continues to get worse over time, and the current recall for this doesn't seem to cover my vin number or yield an open recall. it is possible the person who had this car before me had the issue fixed and it is now happening again. only after restarting the vehicle multiple times am i able to turn the wheel all the while it shakes back and forth as if there's an issue with the steering column.

I was driving my car and my power steering light came on while on the highway and the wheel became hard to turn

Steering will lock up sometimes it say power steering on warning, sometimes the traction control light comes on i can correct by putting in park shutting off the vehicle and restarting, then it goes back to normal operation - i am worried i might get rear ended if i can't get over in time this has happened several times but most recently three times last week and so far twice this week happens when going into a turn

If i drive real fast whenever it rain it'll say power steering service traction off my car would slid as i pull off from a complete stop . it's hard for my car to turn and it's triggering my check engine light .on the highway wheels and tires shake

When driving the power steering goes out making the vehicle extremely hard to steer. when you turn the car off and turn it back on, it would stop for a short period of time, but would repeat the same problem.

There have been multiple times now where my power steering light will turn on my dashboard, then it turns to manual steering which is very difficult to turn and almost caused me to crash my vehicle when trying to merge off to the shoulder. seems to be more common when going 30 mph or under but has happened when going 75 mph on highway. last time was today when i went to get new set of tires and it locked up on the technician. it will happen at random times and if i restart my car problem seems to go away for awhile.

The steering wheel starts to shake and pulls to the right side. cannot control the car. called gm and explained that there was not a recall. gm was terrible and would not let me speak to a supervisor concerning this issue. i cannot drive the car.

2008 chevy malibu engine shut off in mid drive on city highway during high traffic. my wife and children were in the vehicle the check engine light has displayed and continue to code p0365/6. however the camshaft position sensors, the camshaft position actuators, the altenator and the battery have all been replaced. the issue has upset me due to the fact that it is in line with 2 known concerns and reports that have not been answered by chevy or gm. 1) discussion of battery cables being the cause of the problem (unanswered) 2) gm ignition switch recall feb 2014 (which seems to be very in line with this issue). i have taken the vehicle to the chevy dealership and ofcourse paid for a diagnostic to be told "could not duplicate". it is very concerning to me and hard to believe that this was the first time that these symptoms have been reported and no one knows what could be the source. i was able to find forums and reports on both the battery cables and the ignition switch failures. ...

While driving down the road at about 20mph on city streets my power steering went out while i was turning left into a business and i was unable to turn the steering wheel. i had to turn the car off, then back on, and it would drive for a short while before power steering would shut off again, usually while making a left or right turn. the steering wheel also turns on its own while sitting still. i am unable to drive the car. also, the steering wheel is making a grinding, popping noise and flashing "check airbag" messages when the car is turned on. i have researched this problem and found the power steering issue to be a broad gm vehicle problem. chevy malibus from 2004 to 2010 i believe were all covered for a recall. my vin however is not on this list and i am suffering the same problems as all of these other chevy malibu owners. my vehicle has 128,xxx miles.

First time car was in park. then the traction control light comes but doesn't turn off. also message pops up saying to service traction control. next was stationary, i stopped at a light and the car just shut off. next was stationary and the car turned on but then the cluster instrument lights didn't come on it was completely dark. also while in motion car rpm didn't read anymore and it was shifting hard. another thing it says service tire sensor and service airbag
