I have a 2007 chevy Malibu maxx I have the engine light and service transaction. I took the car when these lights come on. They tell me it is the throttle body unit. I am disabled and don't have a lot of money. Has this part been recalled ? I read some on the internet where the fuel system had been recalled . I take my grandson to school everyday and pick him up . The light comes on and then go off. The weather is cold here. That seems to cause the light to come on. I worry about a safe car. Here is the information I pulled up. Recall id # 79907 - fuel system, gasoline:delivery:fuel pump plus full details recall date Feb 28, 2011 component fuel system, gasoline:delivery:fuel pump model affected Malibu potential units affected 4887 if there is a recall whom do I contact about this problem ?.
Late summer 2012, fuel gauge started showing empty after fillup, with low fuel light & check engine light illuminating. Gauge will intermittently work in a few spots, until tank hits about 1/4 tank, where it follows good to empty. Obdii code p0463 "fuel level sensor circuit high input" car runs fine besides this. I have been resetting my trip odometer on every fillup & refilling tank at 250 to 300 miles every time since. I am not about to pay high $$$ to have this fixed now. Just got a letter for the same problem on my 2006 chevy trailblazer, & chevy will repair it now for free. Have seen several complaints for this on the 2007 Malibu, but chevy isn't covering it. Have 103,000 miles on it now, I will wait until the fuel pump goes out or chevy decides to repair it for free before I get it fixed. Whoever manufactured chevy's fuel level sensors these years did a real crappy job. In over 36 years of driving well over a million miles, these are the 1st fuel level sensors I've ever had go bad. Pretty simple technology, if made correctly.
