The car sometimes has a huge delay after you push the start button on dash to actually start, and being a hybrid the car shakes bad when engine starts, it's sounda like crap to be honest. I've got 12K miles on it and it's been serviced at Chevy only, and the [xxx] thing has a rattle in the dash they 'can't figure out' and they don't hear any abnormal engine noise. And they say it's normal to lag that bad when starting, as it has to 'power up'. but when car was new it didn't do that parts of this document have been redacted to protect personally identifiable information pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

The contact owns a 2017 Chevrolet Malibu hybrid. The contact activated the left turn signal and it failed to turn off and continued blinking once the turn was completed. The contact had to manually turn off the blinker. One dealer was notified and was unable to replicate and diagnose the failure. The first dealer test drove the vehicle and was unable to provide a recommended repair solution. A second dealer indicated that the condition was normal. The manufacturer was notified. The VIN was not available. The approximate failure mileage was 70.
