Brake Light problems of the 2012 Chevrolet Malibu

I brought my vehicle into a Chevrolet center near me to have a �manufacturers warranty fix� done to my vehicle on 04/17/2021, as the power steering had failed and I was able to get this fixed for free. When I turned my vehicle on and noticed the power steering notification on my dash, I tried to back my car out of where I was parked and move my wheel, but could not move the wheel. When the part was replaced, I was told that there were still sensors on my dash indicating that I needed the esc and stability traction control serviced for my car. According to the Chevrolet dealership, this had �nothing to do with the special policy fix� and not something they would be fixing for me. After checking the NHTSA. Gov for any recalls on my 2012 chevy Malibu, I found one from may 2014 that described exactly the problem I was having with my vehicle: loss of vehicle stability traction control, cruise control and random illumination of brake lights. I contacted chevy once again about this recall, to which they said there �was no recall for the vehicle, and if there was it was already fixed�. Not only was this completely unprofessional and lacking concern of safety for my child and I, I do not know where to turn to for this to be remedied. Attached is the ticket for the initial fix I had done.

The center brake light doesn't work. I put in a new led light assembly in and it still doesn't work.

The brake lights stay on while driving or they will not come on while stopping then the service esc comes on along with service traction light it happens while driving at random times not always an issue there was a recall performed on vehicle in the past for same issue but now can't get service ţo relook at that problem because it doesn't come back brake lamp malfunction comes back brake apply sensor had replaced same issue 2 hours later.

Warning on dashboard service traction control when applying the brakes. Brake lights does not come on when the service traction control come on. There has been a recall on this issue previously and issue still occurring.

I recieved a notice from gmconcerning the body control module (bcm) warning me that my brake lights could malfunction, but warning me not to take my car to the dealer because of this warning. Now I have talked to an insurance representative a member of my family who happens to be a lawyer also a member of the police dept and I have been told that since I got thois warning that makes me aware of a serious, dangerous and possibly a deadly defect in this automobile, therefore if I was in an accident and some body got killed, not only would it be my fault, but in fact I would and/or copuld be charged and found responsible and charged with that death. Not only that, but in fact my insurance company could leagally and therefore would possibly pay ffor any damages period. Now, since I have had this car, I have recieved a simaliar notice about the steering machanism on this car to which I was told the same thing, a recall on the seat belts, a notice about the headlights on this car and if I am not mistaken an earlier notice about to headlights. So everytime I drive this car, I am not sure that I will accidently have a wreck,kill someone or even be killed myself; I have contacted the NHTSA about this problems previously about some of those deadly defects, yet this car is still allowed to be on the road, so why,why, why, why hasn't this company been forced to recall this dangerous safty hazzard vehicle ?? when even though on the top of this letter, it's dated "March 2017" yet I didn't recieve this letter until may 2017/.

On two occassions the power steering suddenly went completely out while on the highway. Since I got the car 2 years ago I have had many issues with the lighting amd electrical. The brake light works when it chooses to even if k done push the brake and with new bulbs it may not work. The headlights do the same. They come on and go off when they choose to. I have replaced bulbs over 20 times in the past 2 years when I didn't actually have to. My sensors also don't work which I was told was an electrical issue. I have a front light that won't go off so each time I cut the car off I have to unplug my battery so it doesn't die. The date posted isnt the only date its happened it was the day it all started.
