2015 Chevrolet Malibu Owner Comments

problem #2

Mar 012022

Malibu LS 2.5L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 69,000 miles

A D V E R T I S E M E N T S

Bulletin No.: PIP5527L

Published date: 04/8/2021

Clearly states 2014-2015

Special adjustment Adjustment is only for 2014. Now I can't pass smog because P2646 code, my gas mileage sucks, and if you have the code read and not fixed, it's like 30-60 dollars. Chevy should be fixing it, not me. The car surges and loses power.

Special Coverage Adjustment

N192289160 Rocker Arm Oil Control Valve Inoperative (only for 2014!!)

My check engine light came on in September. I brought the car into the dealer to diagnose. They said that I need to replace the Rocker Arm Control Valve - Part# 12633613. Unfortunately, this part in not available anywhere - through the dealer or aftermarket. I have been in weekly contact with the dealer. I opened a case with Chevrolet. My car will not pass the state emissions inspection until I can replace this part.
