Beginning in late August/early September 2026, my 2024 Chevrolet Malibu RS began experiencing recurring electrical and engine performance issues. The vehicle intermittently displays an “Engine Power Reduced” warning and Check Engine Light. I have also experienced unexpected vehicle shutdowns and intermittent electrical malfunctions. I have taken the vehicle to a Chevrolet dealership multiple times for diagnosis and repair. Despite the extended time the vehicle has spent at the dealership, the underlying problem remains unresolved. Dealership technicians have indicated that they were unable to reproduce the reported symptoms during certain inspections. As a result, the cause of the recurring malfunction has not been identified or corrected. I am concerned that the sudden reduction in engine power or unexpected vehicle shutdown could create a serious safety hazard, particularly when driving in traffic, merging onto highways, or traveling at higher speeds. A sudden loss of acceleration or engine power could prevent me from responding appropriately to traffic conditions and potentially put my safety and the safety of other motorists at risk. The specific component responsible for the malfunction is currently UNKNOWN. However, the recurring symptoms raise concerns about a possible electrical system, engine control, or power management malfunction. I am requesting that the federal safety agency review these recurring safety-related issues and determine whether they may represent a potential vehicle defect affecting other Chevrolet Malibu owners. I have documentation of dealership visits, service records, and communications regarding the unresolved issues. The vehicle can be made available for further inspection upon request.

Back-Up Camera has malfunctioned several times. We received a RECALL NOTICE on it. We took it in for replacement today and were denied recall replacement as they said it worked today. But it has repeatedly malfunctioned while driving. We get a BLANK/BLACK screen with a WARNING to SERVICE CAMERA. It has also been shown with a blurry/fuzzy screen where you cannot make out the images at all. Dealer denied recall even though we have a letter with our VIN number for recall.

I have brought my vehicle to Preston Hood Chevrolet on two occasions for two major issues. Failed breaking system started as when I am at a stop light the car won’t move and the brake light and ignition light comes on and it won’t move when I press the gas! I almost had an 4 car pile up. Now it is stalling when I am driving on the street! See the uploads. The first time they said it was a speed sensor and the second time they said it was the wrong tire size.. My Onstar diagnostic report says failed braking system. It also says critical oil level and yet they said they performed a multi point oil inspection. Look at the uploads. Does GM want a fatal accident lawsuit? Why doesn’t a dealership know how to repair my vehicle? I was told by 2 dealerships there is NO remedy for the GM back up camera. They would not fix my broken back up camera.

This complaint relates to the federal safety agency Campaign 26V212 / GM Recall N262551720, covering the rearview camera defect on 2023–2025 Chevrolet Malibu vehicles. I own a 2024 Chevrolet Malibu. On XXX, the rearview camera began intermittently failing. On XXX, the camera failed completely while I was backing out of a space in a parking garage in [XXX]. With no rear visibility, I caused damage to the vehicle's passenger-side door handle. I contacted my dealership around XXX, and was told the camera issue was part of a known recall with a parts backorder. I received an official GM recall notification letter around XXX, confirming the camera required replacement. On XXX, my first day at a new job, I scratched the passenger side mirror against a building while attempting to parallel park without the rearview camera. On XXX, at approximately 5:15 PM, I nearly backed into a pregnant coworker's vehicle while she was seated inside it, in my employer's parking lot. I did not see her car in my path; the collision was avoided only because of her quick reaction, not mine. I have not been involved in a collision, but this defect has directly caused property damage on two occasions and a serious near-miss with another person within the past three months, all while awaiting the recall remedy. I'm submitting this report to document the real-world safety impact of this defect. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
