The 2010 chevy Malibu ( and other vehicles similarly equipped) were manufactured with defective door lock actuators. This has been experienced by thousands of gm vehicle owners. These defective actuators will fail and begin cycling without any input by the vehicle operator. A typical vehicle will be locked by the operator using the key fob and when the operator returns, the doors will have been unlocked essentially by themselves. This is a serious safety issue for persons traveling through high crime areas thinking the door is locked and the door has unlocked by itself. Carjackers are not deterred by an unlocked door. Also, it places the driver and passengers in danger of being partially ejected in a roll-over accident due to the unlocked condition of the door which has unlocked itself, again, without any action by the operator or passenger. These defective parts were installed at the time of manufacture and gm dealers are more than happy to charge $300 to $500 per door to replace the defective actuators. This is unconscionable regarding an integral part of the overall vehicle safety which should last long after the purchase of the vehicle. My vehicle has only 56,000 miles on it and the defective actuators are already malfunctioning. There are many thousands of gm consumers who are dealing with the same problem. Gm should be required to recall all gen 7 Malibu and any other gm vehicles which were equipped with these defective actuators. Gm should be required to replace these defective factory actuators with non-defective replacements at no cost to the consumer.

The contact owns a 2010 Chevrolet Malibu. The contact stated he hit a piece of old concrete in the road that had fallen off a truck. After traveling about 100 yards, a warning bell announced low tire pressure. When the consumer was able to pull over safely, he opened the truck and discovered there was no jack, no tire, no donut and no spare rim. Instead, the manufacturer provided a tire sealant and compressor kit. The contact called aaa, and when the tow truck driver arrived on the scene, he informed the contact the tire had a large cut and that no sealant could seal it. Firestone informed the contact the tire could not be repaired and the sealant would not have worked, and even if it had, the rim had a small dent that meant the tire would not have held air. The manufacturer was notified of the problem. The approximate failure mileage was 12,800. . . . . Updated 06/18/12 updated 06/2/12.
