My car won't go when stepping on the gas peddle in drive. When I stop at the light or to brake the car won't go when pushing the gas peddle in drive it doesn't do anything. I had to have the car towed 2x due to this issue. I only have 67k miles on this car. I've been told it's the transmission problem and need a new one. This should not be happening with the car. This is danegerous and unable to drive at this point. The dealer won't do anything about it. I should still have the warranty of driver train and nothing is being done. I've read several complaints of the same exact car having this issue obviously it's a defect. I want to contact gm about this I was almost killed when my car won't go stuck at a intersection. Also the recall on my seatbelt : steering the dealer is saying no active recalls which there is. I'm getting frustrated with these issues and nothing is being done. I'm reaching out to every entity possible before something happens to me or someone else with this faulty car. The airbag fault like occasionally comes on for no reason at all, then goes off then comes back on. These are issues that the gm needs to rectify. After reading online about the many same issues the 2012 malibu has gm needs to intervene and help the owners get these faults fixed. There are way too many online complaints.

I received a letter in the mail regarding safety recall 15031. There are detailed pictures showing the inspection process, which I performed and found the resulting cuts in the sleeve that are detailed. The letter states that if cracks or cuts are found, stop driving vehicle immediately and gm will tow the vehicle and provide a loaner car. I called a dealer with this information, they referred me to the chevrolet customer assistance center phone number, which when I entered my VIN# in the automated system, stated there are no open recalls for my vehicle. I am simply attempting to comply with the recall notice that tells me my vehicle is not safe to drive and I got exactly nowhere.
