The automatic start and stop function does not work properly. When the car comes to a stop and auto stops, the vehicle shuts off and does not power up when you hit the gas. My safety is put at risk due to the car shutting off and the possibility of someone hitting me. The vehicle has been inspected countless times. I was told it was an electrical issue. Then told it was the battery. Brand new battery and issue isn’t fixed. The car cut off once and all the lights came on. Now no lights comes on it just cuts off.

Multiple warning lights by model year
What owners say
Power steering randomly going out while driving then all warning lights come on dash and car stops accelerating. Shut car off and all lights turn off and car drives fine and then randomly comes on again while driving and power steering doesn't work nearly got in an accident . After reading many forums this seems to be a frequent problem that needs to be addressed by chevy !! Very very unsafe still can't solve how to fix the issues and have to drive children around!
Control panned for the 2014 chevy malibu that controls heating A/C defrosting ect does not work . All of the lights went off and none of the controls are operational
I have a 2014 chevy malibu ls. About a year ago while at a stop light the car engine shut stopped working, and all the lights came off. I had to get the assistance of a police officer to control traffic away from my car, until the tow truck arrived and towed it to the shop. I was told that the auxiliary battery was bad, and had it replaced. The car it worked well. In august of this year the car engine began shutting off, while I was driving, and sometimes after it was parked overnight. I had the batteries checked, and was told that they were bad. I live in az, and the weather here is very hot, both were replaced on august 27th and 28th, less than 2 months ago, with two new batteries. The car worked well up until this evening, when it shut down completely as I was driving into my yard. All the lights came off, and I cannot get the key out of the ignition. I am glad that it happened when I entered my yard and not while I was driving on the freeway. Will tow it to the shop in the morning to find out what the problem is now.
"takata recall" when my wife got into car and turned it on she turned A/C on and it was only blowing hot air. Then she noticed all dash lights and gauges were not working as well. It also gave her lots of prompts saying service air bags and oil. She tried driving it down the street and she noticed odometer, speedometer, and gas gauges were not working as well. She also said the touchscreen for radio was totally black and radio was not working. So she brought it back home and turned it off and radio came on and did not want to turn off even while car was off and doors were open. So I came home and turned car back on and now everything seems to be working properly. We dont know if this is an early sign of something going out or is going to be out in the future but this is a safety issue because you can be driving and what if this happens again......
