| 2001 | INTERIOR LIGHTING | TRYING TO FIND OUT IF THE RECALL PARTS HAVE BEEN FIXED ON MY 2001 MALIBU AND ITS HARD TO GET ANY ONE TO RESPOND. *TR |
| 2002 | EXTERIOR LIGHTING:TURN SIGNAL | I BOUGHT MY CHEVROLET 2002 MALIBU BRAND NEW AND HAVE OWNED IT FOR THREE YEARS, JUST TWO MONTHS AGO IT STARTED HAVING INTERMITTENT TURN SIGNAL PROBLEMS. I HAVE TRIED LITTLE THINGS LIKE MANUALLY USING TURN SIGNALS AND TURNING THEM OFF PRIOR TO TURN COMPLETION, RESTARTING THE CAR, AND USING MY HAZZARD LIGHTS TO TRIGGER THE TURN SIGNALS TO WORK. SOMETIMES THESE THINGS WILL WORK MOMENTARILY, OTHER TIMES THEY HAVE NO EFFECT. ALSO I AM NOTICING MY HAZARD LIGHTS DO NOT ALWAYS WORK, AND SOMETIMES THEY WILL INTERRUPT MY TURN SIGNAL FROM WORKING AND OTHER TIMES MY TURN SIGNAL WILL CAUSE THE HAZARD LIGHTS TO TURN OFF! THIS HAS ALMOST CAUSED SEVERAL ACCIDENTS FOR ME, IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. THE DEALERSHIP WILL NOT HELP ME, MY CAR IS JUST PAST THE WARRANTY PERIOD AND THEY WANT TO TEST IT FOR A RATHER LARGE FEE. ALTHOUGH MY RESEARCH ON THIS PROBLEM HAS TOLD ME THAT GM HAS NOT FIXED THE PROBLEM IN 2002, BUT POSSIBLY IN 2001, AND 2000 MODELS. I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED, AND WILL NOT OWN A CHEVY AGAIN. |
