The charging system went completely dead while driving. I had no power steering everything went black no speed, no lights, I couldn't even turn on my hazards while I was sitting in the middle lane of the interstate hoping I wouldn't get killed because of this. Why is there no warning to let you know your battery and charging system is dead. Why is this not a recall from Chevy? please advise.

Using turn signal or power windows the vehicle dies and quickly restarts. All power is lost momentarily. Happens when battery voltage is below 13.5 volts. Loss of power steering almost caused an accident twice. It was not wet out or raining, had been dry for several days so weather does not seem to be triggering the issue. Service stabil trak warning also flashed in and cleared upon power disruption.

Coming home from work on 8/6/2019 traveling down md-210 highway, with car motion, the radio cut off and then entire car shut off. We stopped at a red light, so my husband took the key out of the ignition restarted the car and we traveled home. This is not the first time, we had our car checked at our mechanic's shop but at the time he could not determine what the issue could be and could not duplicate the issue. This is not the first time, the radio cuts off, instrument dash lights, cuts off and the the power steering shuts down just for a couple of seconds, it happened when we traveled to work, my husband turned the steering wheel right to get on the highway, the radio went off for a few seconds then it came back home. This is very dangerous and god forbid if this happens while car in motion on a green light it could kill someone. Please recall this vehicle asap.

Since I got the vehicle used from a dealership about 4 months ago it has an intermittent stalling problem where during city driving the car will randomly stall without warning while in drive or reverse at a slow and normal idle meaning the cars not moving example would be sitting at a traffic light, stopping at a mailbox or going through a drive thru or even coasting in reverse out of a driveway, I have had the car into 3 different dealerships and they have done multiple things and cannon seem to fix this problem.

While driving my car shot off temporaily causing my steering to lock nearly causing an accident. It has happened a few times in the last week. The only warning is the radio shuts off. Very dangerous and reported in many forums.

While driving, the dashboard instrument cluster will intermittently turn off and then back on.this happens irregardless of speed, temperature, passengers, turning, accelerating, etc. This issue has been brought to the attention of ase certified mechanic in my neighborhood who instructed that it was a faulty wire that there was no replacement for yet. After searching the internet forums, and other mediums, this seems to be a pretty common occurrence. Plan to take it to the dealership within the next couple months as long as the problem does not worsen. I fear that driving with my infant one day that the car will completely lose power or shut down or worse, causing an accident and injury to myself, my child or other drivers. Current milage is 76,500.

A few times that I have been driving my car, I have experienced issues with the car turning off and losing power steering and control while in motion. The whole car turn off and wheel locks up, preventing me from being able to control the car. Countless searching through forums led me to find many people who have experienced the same issue. And from the forums, many claim the reason for these problems happening is faulty battery cables that GM that doesn't want to admit. This is a safety issue because I have had my car turn off while driving on the highway and in the city. And I'm not the only experiencing this issue. It's widespread among 2013 Chevrolet Malibu's. here is a link to one of many forums taking about this issue: Https://www.cargurus.com/cars/discussion-T33502_ds916791

I am or have experienced similar problems related to multiple recalls for my 2013 Chevy Malibu, yet I when attempt to get the repairs for the recall I'm told they're aren't any connected to my VIN. If that's so, then my VIN[xxx] and others like it should be added to the recalls. My Malibu has been or is experiencing the issues brought up in recall #'s 50490, 50491, 13136, and 12212. Now why am I stuck having to pay out of pocket for things that are known in a recall. This is very disturbing to me. Going forward, should I succeed in getting this recall accepted, I don't need to here that it may be out of warranty. That wouldn't be fair either. As the prior owner couldn't have had the work done as a recall because the VIN wasn't in the system in time to be done before any restrictions or warranty expired.as I am making this complaint, I am in the process of getting the repairs done and would appreciate being reimbursed for all expenses incurred. As I wait for a favorable response. Thank you, [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

I recently paid my vehicle off and I am experiencing several electrical issues. The emergency brake went out and "service emergency brake light is on". there's no connection. When I hit a pothole in the road while driving, my radio screen blacks out. Then I can hit another bump and it comes back on. When I park, my ignition does not release my key. I have to turn the steering wheel several times and put it in drive then back in park several times to get the key to release. After doing this several times my key broke off in the ignition and I was stranded and had to walk home over two miles. Has anyone else complained of these issues with the 2013 Malibu? I couldn't pass my recent safety inspection due to the brake issue and I was inconvenienced again as a result of these issues.

Car shuts off completely while driving. Electrical system is sporadic then shuts down.

- Graham, WA, USA

The car will randomly lose power and die while running and in motion. It starts with the radio going off, then all the dash lights flash off and on and then the vehicle will suddenly stop. This has happened 3 times over the past week and is a very dangerous situation. It happens when driving below 40 mph

Takata recall the lights on my dash kept going in and out while I was driving and while stationary. While my car was off, with no key in the ignition, the gauges would make clicking sounds and bounce up and down about an 8th of an inch. The lights on the dash would stay off for days at a time, making it impossible for me to see how fast I was going or how much gas was in the car. Sometimes the lights would click on for about 30 seconds and then the speedometer would be stuck at the last speed I was going at, for days, without showing anything on the digital speedometer. When I took it to get looked at, no codes were found. My car kept dying while I was driving, went and had my battery and alternator tested and they were 100% fine. Car dash lights started flashing on and off while I was going around a curve. Check engine, oil, wiper fluid, gas light, everything flashed on and off, then my steering locked up, causing me to go off of the road and hit a tree. My car was totaled.

Sometimes it happens when I turn on my blinker others its random but the car stalls and the radio turns off along with the power steering.

- Clio, MI, USA

The entire instrument panel cluster would turn on/off on it's own at random. At first the issue seemed to happen the most when the environmental temperatures were lower. The entire instrument panel has now completely stopped working. None of the gauges or lights on the instrument panel work. Due to this issue, I am unable to know my speed, fuel level, mileage, temperature, battery, etc. This creates a hazard when driving.
