Problems with 2013 Chevrolet Malibu STEERING

I have a 2013 malibu lt with 52,000 miles on it. last month on the 20th of november service power steering warning started to flash on the information system. when that happens my doors would lock and my car would stall. however; unlike most other consumers who are having this problem my steering wheel didn't get tight and i did not lose control of my car. i could not do more than 40mph and sometimes if i hit a bump in the road service power steering would come on and the doors would lock and the car would stall and then go back to normal. i took my car in to genesis chevrolet to see what the problem was. they had my car for about a good 4 to 5 hours. they then came and informed me that they could not find anything wrong with my care because, no codes where popping up and the mechanic tried 4 times but could not duplicate the situation i was having. it is now december 11th and i am still having the same problem. i just drove to work today and went to make a right turn down the street leading to my ...

19 august 2019 on this day twice i experience loss of power on the vehicle and power steering. luckily i did not hit any cars. was driving below 35 mph the first incident is when i came to a red light the radio turn off first then the car felt sluggish and the engine shut down lost control of everything and was coasting. vehicle gain power by it self and resume operations. during every light i stop it felt like it wanted to lose power. came to a parking lot driving around 5 mph completely the car shut off first radio and then whole vehicle this time it did not gain power by it self. had to place the vehicle in park turn the key off and restart it was able to park it. after reading here seems a lot of people are having this issue an immediate investigation should be open because this can possibly happen in the highway if i lose control power in the power steering i could potentially crash of get hit by a car . call gm and they said they do not have a bulletin ask them for an address to submit a ...

Coming home from work on 8/6/2019 traveling down md-210 highway, with car motion, the radio cut off and then entire car shut off. we stopped at a red light, so my husband took the key out of the ignition restarted the car and we traveled home. this is not the first time, we had our car checked at our mechanic's shop but at the time he could not determine what the issue could be and could not duplicate the issue. this is not the first time, the radio cuts off, instrument dash lights, cuts off and the the power steering shuts down just for a couple of seconds, it happened when we traveled to work, my husband turned the steering wheel right to get on the highway, the radio went off for a few seconds then it came back home. this is very dangerous and god forbid if this happens while car in motion on a green light it could kill someone. please recall this vehicle asap.

A few times that i have been driving my car, i have experienced issues with the car turning off and losing power steering and control while in motion. the whole car turn off and wheel locks up, preventing me from being able to control the car. countless searching through forums led me to find many people who have experienced the same issue. and from the forums, many claim the reason for these problems happening is faulty battery cables that gm that doesn't want to admit. this is a safety issue because i have had my car turn off while driving on the highway and in the city. and i'm not the only experiencing this issue. it's widespread among 2013 chevrolet malibu's. here is a link to one of many forums taking about this issue: https://www.cargurus.com/cars/discussion-t33502_ds916791

Car shuts off completely while driving. electrical system is sporadic then shuts down.

Sometimes it happens when i turn on my blinker others its random but the car stalls and the radio turns off along with the power steering.

Takata recall the lights on my dash kept going in and out while i was driving and while stationary. while my car was off, with no key in the ignition, the gauges would make clicking sounds and bounce up and down about an 8th of an inch. the lights on the dash would stay off for days at a time, making it impossible for me to see how fast i was going or how much gas was in the car. sometimes the lights would click on for about 30 seconds and then the speedometer would be stuck at the last speed i was going at, for days, without showing anything on the digital speedometer. when i took it to get looked at, no codes were found. my car kept dying while i was driving, went and had my battery and alternator tested and they were 100% fine. car dash lights started flashing on and off while i was going around a curve. check engine, oil, wiper fluid, gas light, everything flashed on and off, then my steering locked up, causing me to go off of the road and hit a tree. my car was totaled.

Tl* the contact owns a 2013 chevrolet malibu. while driving 40 mph on the freeway, the steering seized and the vehicle lost power without warning. the contact managed to veer the vehicle to the shoulder of the road. the vehicle failed to restart and the key would not release from the ignition. approximately two hours later, the vehicle did not resume normal operation. the failure recurred multiple times. the manufacturer and dealer were made aware of the failure. the contact referenced nhtsa campaign number: 13v173000 (electrical system). the failure mileage was approximately 66,000.*pm the vehicle was towed to do the dealer and consumer was told it was not electrical problem but block cable was replaced.*jb

When driving my malibu it seems to have a short circuit when i turn the wheel even the slightest. i have changed the batteries checked all the wires and everything seems fine. i have figured out even when i'm driving 70mph on the highway with my family in the car the power steering will go out and make it hard for me to even turn. i have read online that this is happening to malibu's everywhere and that gm is not willing to make it a national recall because it must be happening while they see the car. so i guess i have to wait for me to crash? to see that the power steering gave out on me along with the rest of the electrical work on the inside of the car.

The entire electrical system will randomly shut down causing loss of power steering, power brakes, entire dashboard, all lights, hazard lights etc. this can happen at any time, on the freeway, stopped at a light, parked etc. sometimes it goes dark and restarts itself while driving....sometimes it goes dark and won't restart for minutes or longer while in traffic without working hazard lights. if parked, it can't be taken out of 'park" to push it out of traffic or try to start it in "neutral" and the key can't be removed from the ignition.there are no error codes to diagnose the issue and it won't ever happen while it is in the shop (of course) this is the ultimate safety hazard to me and my family.

Tl* the contact owns a 2013 chevrolet malibu. while operating the vehicle, the radio screen suddenly shut off and the electric power steering failed. as a result, the steering wheel became very difficult to turn in either direction. the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who indicated that the battery was faulty and needed to be replaced. the battery was replaced, but the failures continued. the manufacturer and dealer were not notified. the failure mileage was 92,000.

Less than 99,000 miles... radio light flickers off and on. vehicle goes dead at red light, stop sign or whenever vehicle is not in motion. took vehicle to dealership and replaced the engine computer module as requested. however, problem still exist but more worse. 'service power steering' light came on while driving on a city street but before i could make a safe turn, it became too tough to steer almost causing an accident. battery good, alternator good..no one really knows what's wrong with the vehicle.

13 malibu every day at least twice the radio will flicker off and on multiple times and then once i hit the brakes and make a turn the brake will go solid and the steering wheel jerks hard all at the same time and then all my dash lights stop working. then it will all power on and work like new a few seconds after. but once the car is parked and car is turned off it will not allow me to take the key out. and then once you try to turn the key in there is no power at all. no lights. no clicks. no radio. no nothing. completely dead car. but then if you unplug the battery for 10 mins and plug it back in... then the key will come out and/or will turn on and the car is working fine again for maybe a trip or two and then it does this again. every single day! no codes show on the dash no lights of anything wrong at all. has been doing this for almost a month now. i have almost hit multiple people because of this issue!!! help!!! local chevy dealer and also a ...
