Problems with 2009 Chevrolet Malibu ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

My 09 chevy malibu lt brake lights will illuminate without the brake pedal being pressed.therefore signalling to other drivers that i am slowing, when in fact i am not. also when the brake pedal is deliberately pressed to indicate the vehicle is slowing, the lights go out entirely, signalling to other drivers that i am not slowing down when in fact i am! this is a huge safety issue! i parked my vehicle today january 1, 2020 to test the functionality of my brake lights and the brake lights illuminated while i was outside of the vehicle, indicating i was pressing the brake pedal. once the pedal was compressed, the rear lights went out entirely indicating the brake pedal was not compressed. also the cruise control of the vehicle has never worked properly since purchasing the vehicle. it will not initiate or maintain set speed causing fluctuations in travel speed. so i refuse to use the feature as this too is a real safety concern.

The power steering goes out and the traction control light comes on and service esc message comes across the message center. i cannot turn the wheel when this happens. i turn the car off and back on and the light goes out, power steering comes back for a second then the light trips again and it's out again as soon as i turn the wheel. this occurs while driving the vehicle at a slow pace.

Tcs, abs, esc, etc intermittently stop working. electronic power steering occasionally stops working, usually when turning at low speeds. brake lights sometimes do not illuminate when pedal is pressed. i also replaced the wiring harness to the passenger head light that had shorted out and melted. there is a slew of electrical issues, and they usually get worse as the weather gets wetter and colder.

My cars passenger side low beam head light connector keeps frying out. ive changed the bulb numerous times and the light never stay on longer than 2 weeks at a time. i was looking into the issue and noticed that the whole connector has melted and the wiring too.

Passenger side headlight went out. the connector to the headlight is melted this is the fourth time it has happened. general motors will not do anything about it. it gets replaced every time and that connector keeps getting melted making it hard to see while driving at night

When i was driving at night my passenger side headlight went out. this is not the first time this has happened. have had it replaced for other times and the connector to the headlight keeps melting. then there is a smell of plastic melting almost like it is going to catch on fire

Car dies while driving. no warning. starts back up after stopping and turning key off and then back on. happened 5 times now.

The wire harness for the passenger front headlight keeps burning out the lightbulb now the harness has burned out

When you're driving down the road the brake lights come on and stay on when you press the pedal the brake lights go off and then come back on when you release the pedal 3 seconds later the brake lights come back on and stay on.

Starting last week, i've noticed that my brake lights turn on when i'm not even touching the brake pedal. it happens all the time and the brake lights turn on when i'm accelerating and then turn off when i apply the brakes. i have to really push down hard on the brake pedal to have the brake lights turn on. the electronic stability control and traction lights also appeared on my dashboard and that's when i took my vehicle to the car shop today, but there was nothing wrong with my brakes, brake pads or suspension system. i looked online to find the recall number 14v252000 matching the exact description of what i'm experiencing in my chevy malibu. i searched on vin on the online database, but my car didn't appear in the search even though my car matches the make, model, year and manufacture date range (august 2008).

I have a 2009 chevy malibu .recall webisite reflects numerous recalls regarding my auto , make and model. while driving on a 6 lane hwy,, i have lost power steering twice. which is almost impossable to control. also, the automatic locks have stopped operating even when pressing the door auto lock/ unlock button .you can hear then trying to function however does not. also, while sitting in park, i crank my car and shift to reverse, my car does not go into reverse. sometime it will hit very hard and sometime not go into gear at all. i place my car in drive and move forward then to reverse , the car goes into reverse . on other occasions , i turn the car off, re-crank it and its fine. these problems are listed as recalls for the make and model of my auto however, doesn't apoear under my vin when i search. what can i do i am affraid for my safety while driving my car and also reluctant to drive it. these issues need to be resolved as they appear as recalls. when you ...

Takata recall recently while driving and in park, even when i am sitting at a red light my car my locks will lock and unlock without me pushing the buttons on the door, which are broken and the dealer would not fix it upon request. also my car will stall at times because the door locks are motioning on their own. for some reason the electrical system in the car messed with the locks when the prior owner put in a auto start in the car, which i did not know of until the car was owned and it was'nt told to me either. i feel this car was a rough struggle since getting it and now its so hard to get fixed because of someone else's non knowledge before selling it.
