I have a 2010 and repeatedly have issues. It has been to the dealer as it completely lost power in rush hour. Car dash said service abs, power, saver mode, traction control, service esc and then died. I took to shop and they replaced the pcm is what they told me. Car has since had lose of power, sluggish, dies periodically, and now almost 3 years after thousand dollar repair not to mention the air bag light that is on that they are telling me will cost at least 1000 dollars as well to repair as my car is out of warranty and that it is a saftey concern. My car died again while coming through a intersection and the p0341 has come up and been replace3d four times since February 2019. This car is a danger and I am forced to drive it when it runs as I have so much money invested I cant afford a new one. I have also replaced the throttle body and just about every sensor under the hood including spark plugs and battery and car is still acting up. Why are they not helping us. Someone is going to get killed. It stalls suddenly and with little to no warning. I am terrified to transport my kids in this car. Please help us�.
Car hesitates to change gears at higher speeds and stalls after driving reasonably short distances. The driver front wheel bearings have been changed for only a few months and are already causing the same problem as before.

I was stopped at a stop sign to turn and when I accelerated a quick flash of the service ecm message came on and then disappeared, but the car stalled out in the middle of the intersection. When I tried to restart the car, it would turnover, run for 2 seconds and then die. I had the car towed to my house, where we charged the battery and took it over to autozone to have the electronics scanned, where it showed 3 codes: u0121, p0106, p0621. They scanned the battery and alternator, and all came up with a clean bill of health (so to speak). Upon reading online it looks like this was an issue in Malibu's 2004-2009 (which was recalled), and I believe they never fixed the issue and now 2010's may be affected. My worry is that this will happen again and it will be at a busier intersection or worse yet, on the highway.

My service esc/service traction control indicator was flashing. It caused my car to stall, then the engine died in the middle of the road with traffic approaching behind me. I have had this problem before and it caused my brake lights to illuminate when not depressed and go off when the brakes were pressed. I am not sure if this was happening also as it was light outside and I could not see. The car started afterward and still periodically stalls or dies when the service esc/service traction control indicator lights up. As of 6-13-14, I have not received notice that my VIN is affected by the latest recall for the brake light problem.
This has happened 2 times, once a few days after purchasing the vehicle June 2010 at 400 miles, and then again on 7/19/13 after the issue was supposedly fixed by dealer. I was assured by the service department that this would never happen again after the repair in 2010, it did. This vehicle stalls while driving. On 7/19/2013 I was traveling on the garden state parkway in traffic and the car suddenly stalled. Everything went blank, the engine cut, no power steering, no instrument panels, no electrical what so ever. Thank goodness I was able both times to coast on to the shoulder on the highway without consequence, but without turn signals, hazard lights, access to on star or the ability to hand signal as the windows are out. After being essentially powerless, the car does turn back on after it resets the internal clock to 1/1/2009. Someone is going to get seriously injured or killed if this is not resolved, I was lucky to have not been hit both times. I am frightened that this will happen again and my job relies on me to travel long distances. This car is a deaf trap.
We just leased a chevy Malibu from east hills Chevrolet at 1039 northern blvd. Roslyn,n. Y. 11576. Within 2 days the new 2010 vehicle stalled on the long island expwy and could not be re-started. The nassau county police called a tow truck to the scene and towed it back to the dealer. After two [2] days we received a call from the service mgr. Leon, who stated that the car was repaired and ready for pick up[05-13-0=10] well , as my daughter drove out of the service dept. ,again within 15 minutes the car stalled on the long island expwy and she is currently waiting again for the police to respond to call a tow being that the roadway is restricted. The service mgr, leon, told me the car was repaired and that it was a computer problem. I asked him if this had happened before and he said yes ! and now again for the second time it stalled on the expressway. This is not acceptable.
