While driving vehicle started suddenly to decelerate, and dashboard warning lights come on, followed by vehicle stalling. Also, tie rods were rubbing. Dealership indicated that this was due to fuel pump failure.

Malibu

  • Automatic transmission

Vehicle first towed to shop on 04/04/00 for vehicle overheating. Top radiator hose split. Informed dealer of vibration in front end at 30 mph and up, they said they could not duplicate. On 04/11/00 heard thumping noise from front and while pulling in driveway lost control of left front wheel. Towed to dealer and left side outer tie rod end replaced. Picked up from dealer on 04/12/00 and 2 miles away ABS light came on. Parked vehicle in driveway and next morning light was off. Left for work and got 6 miles away when check engine light came on and transmisson started slipping. Caled and notified Chevy and they said drive vehicle then have it towed in the next day. On 04/14/00 was driving down road at 40 mph when I lost control of steering again and hit a tree. Repairs to steering/ABS light/check engine light/transmssion slipping not taken care of yet.
