Problems with 2009 Chevrolet Malibu VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL

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.

While the vehicle is in motion the dash will display the traction control service light and the screen will read service traction service esc, the brake lights illuminate when the brake pedal is not pushed and turn off when it is pushed. the cruise control also can not be engaged. the brake switch was replayed however all problems came back 2 weeks later. all these issues have been on going.

I have had problems with this vehicle from day one. i filed a report previously and i am filing another one in reference to my power transmission. i have a 2009 chevy malibu, 4 speed, automatic. i was driving and the vehicle downshifted itself without my doing anything, almost causing an accident because it would not shift into high gear. something popped in the vehicle and the gear shifted for a little bit and worked and then it happened again. i think the shifting cable may have fractured or separated. this was very nerve wracking, because it was in the late evening hours and traffic was extremely heavy. now it is sitting in the driveway.

Warning lights on dash contantly flash: esc, brake lights, tire sensors, tire traction, engine reduce speed. the car turns off while actively driving (in motion) , sometimes will start up in neutral or park right away and sometimes not. on i-95 and city street. dealership stated the timing chain need to be done so it got done and car still doing the same thing. sensors also has been replaced.

When starting my car, i attempt to take it out of park and i need to step on my brakes as if i am slamming them just to move my car out of park. my brake lights are reversed, i noticed this at night when a car almost hit me. i thought it was the brake sensor so i changed it and that didn't fix the issue. since then 3 cars have almost hit me because of this braking issue. while driving my traction light also comes on, it states 'service traction, service esc' and makes my car shake.

Tl* the contact owns a 2009 chevrolet malibu. while driving various speeds, the vehicle accelerated without warning. also, when the contact depressed the accelerator pedal, the vehicle did not accelerate. the vehicle was taken to regal lakeland (925 bartow rd, lakeland, fl 33801, 863-904-1170) where it was diagnosed that the cylinder head failed. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was notified of the failure. the failure mileage was approximately 118,368.

While driving the power locks goes off. they go lock and unlock when driving down the road they unlock and lock when wr are at home and the ignition is off. tge brake ligjts stay on like i am hitting the brake peddle and the cruis control wont work bc the break lights stay on it cuts it off. i have been hearing noises coming from the shifter area a buzzing noise like a wire has crossed.

When driving the vehicle the service traction service esc & esc off lights come off/on seems to be worse when i turn the vehicle will drive rough at times, also the cruise control will fail to work. got a recall on this in 2017 took it into a dealer shop who applied gel to connectors said that fixed the problem, it certainly did not.i do not know if this is safe to drive my vehicle since it is the only one i own i do not have a choice. since this has been going on for more than a year now i can not give an exact date but it does happen daily..i need the repairs made by gm not me

My 09 malibu began acting up 1 yr ago when using cruise control, the security light would come on the car would bog down like it was losing power and the service esc and traction control off light would come on, then about 3 min liter it would all turn off, my mechanic did not know why. recently it has been misfiring and showing lights that say service esc, traction control off and the check engine light blinks as car bugs down like it is losing power. it does this at 30 mph and 50 mph. when i get the light check it says misfire in cylinder 3. i have changed the plug and coil multiple times in last 2 months. upon googling i found many others had the same issue with the same make and model. this started june 2017

My brake lights and fifth light in window come on without braking and go off when brake is pressed

The brake lights do not always come on when the brake pedal is pressed. other times the brake lights, including the center brake light is on without the pedal being pressed. note this occurs both when stationary and moving.

The car loses speed while driving then reduce power shows on dashboard. when stop engine shaking and sometimes does not start.. i took it to the dealer and they couldn't find problem i already spend over 4000 and still happen.

My brake lights stay on when i am driving the car. the cruise control will just stop working and the car of course slows down at this point. yesterday the low traction and eic light came on. this has been going on for several months with the brake lights and cruise control the low traction and eic problem just started yesterday. i have read page after page of complaints on this same thing happening on this model year make of car. i have had to take my car in for several recalls but i have not seen one on this particular issue. my car has 138,000 miles on in it and of course this happens while it is in motion on the highway road street etc. it could not happen if the car was not in motion. this is a scary thing to be driving your vehicle and pray your going to make it to where you are going without a crash.

A few minutes after i start driving the esc off/service traction light will come on and it keeps flashing back and fourth between error messages. my check engine light is not on, but when i go to accelerate my car jumps kind of. and if i let my foot off the gas it feels like i'm shifting gears and my car will start going slow. i'll push back down on the gas and i will seem like it's trying to get speed but takes a min. they are trying to say i don't have a recall but something is wrong clearly. the error lights will go on no matter if i'm driving or parked.

While in motion going to fl on rt 95 my speed control stopped working, what i didn't know until i got to fl. that my break lights were on all the time and when i would hit the breaks they would go off and then come back on. i took the car to a dealer in fl and they could not dublacate the problem. they did replace the third break light and after researching about the problem i told them to change the break peddle switch. i drove back from fl to pa. with no problems. i know there were recalls about the bcm and did receive other letters that if a break light problem like above would happen to take it to a dealer. this is a very dangerous problem. sent reinversment papers tochev. but they sent me s letter telling me they would not pay for repairs.
