Alternator/generator/regulator Problems of Chevrolet Sonic

If you are driving in the rain and you have your high beams on the doors will unlock. The wipers will turn off, the rpm's race high accelrating the car into almost a spin if you do not counter correct the steering. The engine and radio shuts off at random times as well. Had a diagnostic check done, nothing wrong with the engine, electrical systems, battery or alternator. Was told it is a manufacturer is with the computer system, but NHTSA will not address the issue until someone get's killed, so general motors will not fix it, until they are in probate court. As a leo this is unacceptable behavior, especially after our government just bailed them out again with our tax money.

My chevy Sonic stalls while driving it. The engine shuts down, door locks cycle, lights go on and off, power steering and brakes go out, rpms drop, and until today, it turns back on, the rpms jump sky high, and the motor revs back to life and it goes fine again for awhile. But today it stalled sitting in mcdonalds parking lot and not only didn't start again, but had to be jumped. I can only imagine what would have happened if my granddaughter and I had her in heavy traffic when that happened! every other time it's been going down the road. One time I was in traffic and it almost caused an accident. It happens almost every day. Especially if I'm running the air conditioner. It happens at all speeds. I have taken it to 3 mechanics and it doesn't �throw any codes�. It did show a little issue with the alternator so we replaced it but it didn't charge anything. I've done some research and this is a common issue with several years of chevy Sonic cars. Unfortunately our outcry is going nowhere. Gm seems determined to ignore us until someone dies and they get sued. Can you please get them to recall the engine or whatever it is that's causing this issue? please?!!! thank you!.

The contact owns a 2015 Chevrolet Sonic. The contact stated that the key ceased in the ignition causing the battery to be drained. Roadside assistance was contacted and the vehicle was jump started. The vehicle was towed on three separate occasions to gerry wood Honda (414 jake alexander blvd south, salisbury, nc 28147) to be diagnosed however, the mechanic was unable to duplicate the failure. The battery and alternator were replaced however, the failure recurred. The contact referenced NHTSA campaign number: 16v257000 (equipment, electrical system) as a possible solution to the failure. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 37,000.

It has been going on for 3 months now. I will be driving and the doors will lock, the instrument panel and radio will go blank and the car will rev like its out of gear. We have changed battery, alternator checked and diagnostics test found nothing. Today I went to town and got to my destination fine. I got back in my car to leave and no power at all! I was sitting there and car not running because battery drained but the rpm gauge was moving back and forth on 0. How with no power? I went online and was outraged to fine how many people have the same complaint and no dealership can't find out what is wrong. You can be driving and it cut off as you driving on freeway!! dangerous!!! it happens when driving. When stopped it really doesn't matter. Please help!!.
