On July 7, 2005 I purchased a 2000 chevy Malibu LS. The right two brake lights continue to burn out. Never at the same time, it's either the one on the outside or the inner one.
In late 2003, early 2004, the hazard lights stopped working and you had to hold button down to keep them on. At the time, I had not received a recall notice. I had my mechanic work on it and fix the wiring. In Aug. 2014, it became a problem again, which I haven't fixed yet. Due to recent recalls, of which I received a notice for having my ignition and keys fixed for my car, I went onto the NHTSA website to check past recall notices and saw one issued in Feb. 2004 for cars of my make/model/year for the hazard warning switch. (campaign #03v327000) by VIN number, it shows my car wasn't one with the defective switch, however, I believe there to be a problem there and it should be looked into.
A major electrical problem in 2000 chev. Malibu. Which occurs in an occasional basis. The turn indicators work inconsistently, doesnt work when it is damped or raining. The electric/power window of the driver side and rear right side wouldnt go down, and the flicker switch from the dash lights doesnt work from time to time. Consumer has disconnected and reconnected the battery once for which restored electricity to the two windows (the other windows worked fine); however, I still experience problems with its turn indicators, which work inconsistently. I'm asking if this problem has any connection(s) to the recall of the emergency flasher switch?.
Engine cut off while driving on freeway 6-8 times. Dealer replaced wiring and stated they have been having that problem. 2 weeks later happened again.
