general problems of the 2010 Chevrolet Malibu

Lug studs repeatedly snap at wheel no matter how installed.

The esc and engine light came on and then the stability track light came on for a matter of a min and then all the lights just went off. I seen there are recalls on these issues but not for my VIN number.

Power steering and yes it is. Not safe to drive because of the steering. The dealership has changed the part under the recall as well as the warranty yes by several people no warning lights or anything came on to show that there was a issue.

I purchased the car from crest auto mall and 1 week later the suspensions gets messed up and then 1 month later the engine blows up now my car is parked in the driveway!.

Tl the contact owns a 2010 Chevrolet Malibu. While the contact was parallel parking, an abnormal noise was detected coming from the steering wheel.

One of my new tires continually deflate. After taking to tire CO. 6of8wks to get air, I was told I have a cracked wheel and will pay $500 for a used wheel or up to $1000 for authorized dealer to replace it. I pay $50 extra f/platinum warranty and had to pay for airbag svc'ing to get inspection--and $100 deductible from warranty company. In 2yrs, I've paid $1200 f/warranty plus $150 deductible@authorized service ctr-pinkerton chev in lynchburg, va-and it took 3 weeks that I had to bum a ride to work or pay a cab. Now, I'm riding on a "donut" and my gas mileage is <8mpg. . . . . . . . W/a $389 car note and $200 car insurance note.

I had to have over $2500 worth of work done to my car, which had something to do with some torque sensor and other parts - I see that there was a recall on other chevy Malibu's in previous model years. I am wondering how long this recall will take, my year is 2010 and not currently on the recall list. Prior to that, I had just paid $2000 for other work needed on this vehicle that was out of warranty. I've had so many issues w/this car. I have receipts but they are currently in storage - I am unable to upload them right now.
