Check engine light and reduced engine power vehicle won't accelerate on highway in traffic
When you shift to park a light comes on that says it isn't in park . so the lights will not shut off . you have to repeatedly shif from drive to park until it turns off . there are thousands of complaints online . it cost me 286.00 to fix it i was 1000 miles over my warranty.
For 3 months my 2017 chevy malibu has had the check engine light come on, and vehicle completely loose acceleration. at slow and high speeds with my 2 year old in the car. when the code is read it states it's the ecm p2138. this last time almost caused my vehicle to wreck with my family in the car. chevy has yet to handle the issue and like most cars it's not covered on warranty so because chevy has put out a faulty product we are being punished with high mechanical costs. this is not the first issue, i have have my chevy almost 3 years and have had it in for sensor issues reading the key fob and my car stranding me hours from home and not starting, and again for sensory issues putting the vehicle into park. when confronting chevy they state the issue with high cost to fix.
While driving on freeway going 70 mph, my traction control, check engine light, and a warning flash across my dashboard saying engine speed reduced. my car went from going 70 mph to 40 mph and wouldn't go any higher. i immediately got off the freeway took pictures of the lights. luckily i have a anti left device that reads off codes for my check engine like code p2138 is what came up. this is extremely dangerous, i had my [xxx] child in the car with me and was almost rear ended due to loss of power from such a high speed. *dl parts of this document have been redacted to protect personally identifiable information pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
The car lost power while i was operating it. i had to put it in park and restart it. i was in the middle of parking it on a city street.
When parking the vehicle and turning off the ignition the dash lights up "shift to park" had to work and work with it to get the car into park to where it could be exited from. took to dealer and with extended warranty had to pay $200 deductible for a fix that i have heard many are having with the 2016 and 2017 year model gm products.

On jan 6 2020. i was driving a 2016 chevy malibu, when the check engine light and engine reduce power light came on. i pulled over and let the car seat for maybe 10 mins. i restarted the vehicle and begin driving again (it was pulling normal). about 3 miles down the road i was making a left turn and the car stop pulling and the reduce engine power light comes on which leaves me in the middle of a intersection section causing a vehicle coming from my right side to slam into the side of vehicle deploying all of my airbags and making on-star assistance come on. in the result i have neck, back and side injury from the impact. which in the result i'm getting sued because my car stalled in the middle of the turn going left. my car was totaled out and my insurance don't want to pay the full value of what i was leasing it for. which i have to come out the pocket with expenses. after reviewing the "engine reduce power" and doing my research i come to find out it has been numerous complaints. i could have lost my life!
