Wiring problems of the 2009 Chevrolet Malibu

Tcs, abs, esc, etc intermittently stop working. Electronic power steering occasionally stops working, usually when turning at low speeds. Brake lights sometimes do not illuminate when pedal is pressed. I also replaced the wiring harness to the passenger head light that had shorted out and melted. There is a slew of electrical issues, and they usually get worse as the weather gets wetter and colder.

My cars passenger side low beam head light connector keeps frying out. Ive changed the bulb numerous times and the light never stay on longer than 2 weeks at a time. I was looking into the issue and noticed that the whole connector has melted and the wiring too.

Passenger headlight keeps going out. Changed the bulbs, still out. Changed the wiring harness, still out. Next step is the signal switch! the high beam was working until I changed everything and now I have no low or hugh beam on that side!!I have changed the bulbs numerous times on that same side over the past few years. The time prior the connector on the bulb was melted!! I have been reading all over the internet numerous people who continue to have this issue. Replacing these items over and over again is costly. It has been happening too many times!! this needs to be a recall! it is clearly an issue in manufacturing. We should not have to constantly come out of our pockets for lazy wiring and manufacturing. Do right by your customers and make it a recall issue gm!!.

Power of steering keeps going out I have to turn my car off and back on just to get it to steer again. Usually happens when I'm backing out of parking spots or driving slow or turning. My headlights wiring harness has a short in it and one of my lights cuts off and on this happens randomly while I'm driving.

Passenger side low beam keep going out. Replaced bulb multiple times, still doesnt work. Replaced wiring harness within first week of purchasing vehicle and having repeated problems.

Passenger side headlight issue . Headlight lowbeam specifically on passenger side keep going out . After research and testing to find out it's not the actual bulb that's the issue. It's that headlight wiring on several different Malibu's . Changed bulb 3 times in 6 month window .

Body control module causing braking lights, turn signals not to function while in motion and stationary. Three times I've had the bulbs repaired and wiring harness checked. Given that te front end needs to be pulled just to change the bulbs, this has led to some high repair bills. My understanding is that 2004-2014 Malibu have been recalled for this problem. Chevy recall #13036 NHTSA campaign #14v252000. For whatever reason my vehicle is not included in the recall. It should be, and before my daughter is involved in an accident due to this.

I did not have an accident yet. There was a recall for my car. The information I provided above on March 13, 204 I took the car back to the dealer to have it fixed. But the problems are still happening. . I took it back and they said it was just some water leaking on the electrical wiring and would need replaced. I did not have the money at the time but did take it to my local mechanic where he also put it on the computer and advised that there is no water leakage. I have another incident the other day where I lost power and almost got in an accident. My taction got disabled as well. I have an appointment at kenny ross in irwin to take it back so they can look at it again, but I don't trust them. The car was bought with low mileage and I go no where as I work from home, still has low mileage. . I should not be having problems. The original recall repairs were never done. . . Can you please advise what I should do in this ase.

I have had problems with the battery, wiring problems and lock problems. I am hoping that the wiring repair took care of that problem and the battery problem, but the lock problem persists, and it is a safety issue! I had no luck getting the dealer to fix the lock problem. It needs to be a required recall to fix. Recently I heard of another recall for my car, called the dealer, they said no there wasn't any, but then I got a letter in the mail saying there is a recall. What is a consumer supposed to do????.
