I was stopped at a light at a very busy intersection (auto off engaged). when i started to move, the car would barely go (auto off was disengaged). it was jerking as i was giving it gas. the service stabilitrak message came on and my check engine light came on. i managed to pull into a parking lot , put it in park and then i tried to rev the engine and it just didn't want to. i shut it off and then turned it back on and the message disappeared. i drove back to work and it seemed fine, but for months now, it seems when i go to take off, it hesitates a bit before going.
Takata recall the transmission in the 2015 chevy malibu jerks at low speeds and at high speeds it holds the gear when slowing down
Passenger seat belt won't unbuckle, dash says service stabilitrak, engine power reduced, and speed limited to 25 mph
No problems prior to a simple spark plug change(ac delco iridium/oem). few days later, car started hesitating, and losing acceleration, check engine light & service stability display on screen. checked with obdii. gave code of missing spark in #3. so i changed spark plug, thinking faulty plug. after driving a bit, code and same problem again. took to dealer $170 later, bad coil...! 86k miles and bad coil, after changing plugs...hum! ok so if bad coil why is it giving me a service stabilitrack display? and not coming up on obdii diagnosis? i'm a certified transit desiel mechanic of 15yrs, and this puzzles me. i've ordered coil, changing tmrw. lets see what outcome will be after chaning coil!
I have a 2015 chevy malibu while driving on the turnpike ac came on without being turned on lights dimmed when car started flashing me i hit my bright lights and my abs slammed my car to an immediate stop also causing the windshield wipers to come on and the power steering to go out car shut off took a while to come back on car was not dead but only things that were off were working things that were on or not car keeps dying when you crank it up and things that are turned off come on once the car cranks up driving down the highway power steering went out and car turned off in the middle of driving and did the same thing on the turnpike in the middle of driving.
Sensor for anti stability and antilock braking system failing multiple times , this has been recalled on the 2014 but not 2015. had part replaced which was replaced with same issue. when this happens abs disengages and the anti stability also disengages.
The abs sensor is malfunctioning. this causes the vehicle to stall out and not go over 11 miles per hour. the dealer will not repair under $1000 and similar issue was recalled on the 2014 model.

Bought 2013 malibu march 2013 never had any problems with it until at about 34,000 miles. on my way to work stability control system light and (abs) break light came on. after my shift at work, i started the light was not on. i thought just an error, may have reset it's self. at about 46,000 miles stability control system, (abs) break lights are back on and will not go off. i am currently making an appointment with dealer to have it checked out.
I have been having numerous problems with a pause in the engine when i'm speeding up onto a highway or to pass on the highway . it's most dangerous when i enter the highway. the car instead of just speeding up has been known to pause.. and then speed up. this is very dangerous because it's hard to determine when the car is going to "pause" . i was almost in an accident because i had enough time to enter the highway and the car decided to "pause " and then go but that slight pause effects the timing of entering traffic . also, i am near a highway with a lot of construction. the roads become uneven in parts without warning. i have to keep both my hands tightly secured to the wheel or the car tries pulling you. for instance : i was driving straight and there was a slight change in uneven pavement and my car seemed like it was trying to even out the weight of the car and it tried pulling me left and when i went to straighten out my car become uncontrollable and thank god there wasn't somebody in the right lane because it pulled me all over the highway and i couldn't control it . to be honest i have had about 6 cars and never have i felt so unsafe. also my car is an eco car- it turns off at lights.. sometimes it shakes when it turns bck on and also it lags to move once it does come back on. my dealership said they found a defect in it and gm will "find a solution in 45 days" .. i haven't seen any other reviews about this? *tr
