2006 Chevrolet Malibu Maxx exterior lighting problems

“The rack and pinion needs to be replaced at the speed of 65 the steering feels loose and I was told that the rack and pinion is out, so I am having to replace the entire thing, I dont have a receipt yet because it's going to the shop next week, it seems odd that a car with only 75k miles would need a new rack and pinion. Also the high mount brake light is out..which seems crazy on a car with low miles, I understand that the car is old but to me it's a new car, I only just purchased it in October 2020.”

“THERE IS A SITUATION HAPPENING WITH THE HEADLIGHT. THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM IS SO COMPROMISED THAT IT MELTS AND DESTROYS THE CONNECTIONS. I HAVE REPLACED TONS OF BULBS AND NOW THE LIGHT CONNECTOR IS ERODING BECAUSE OF EXCESSIVE HEAT CONDUCTIVITY WITHIN THE SYSTEM.”

“BRAKE LIGHTS ILLUMINATE WITHOUT THE BRAKE PEDAL BEING PUSHED; THE BRAKE LIGHTS DO NOT ILLUMINATE WHEN THE PEDAL IS PUSHED.; DIFFICULTY MOVING THE GEAR SHIFTER OUT OF THE "PARK" POSITIONS WITHOUT PUSHING THE BRAKE. GM SAYS THERE WAS NEVER A RECALL, BUT A SERVICE BULLETIN WAS ISSUED IN REGARDS TO THIS PROBLEM.”

“THE PASSENGER SIDE LOW BEAM LIGHT KEEPS GOING OUT. I HAVE CHANGED THE LIGHT BUILD 3 TIMES IN THE LAST 2 MONTHS. THE LAST TIME BEING SATURDAY MORNING, THEN ON THE WAY HOME TONIGHT IT IS OUT AGAIN. LAST FRIDAY, IT WAS WORKING ON MY WAY SOMEWHERE AND THEN QUITE. ON MY WAY HOME IT STARTED WORKING AGAIN. IT DIDN'T MATTER IF I TURNED, HIT A BUMP, ETC. IT JUST GOES ON AND OFF RANDOMLY. I HAVE READ MANY MANY COMPLAINTS THAT THIS HAPPENS TO OTHERS AS WELL. I FEEL CHEVROLET NEEDS TO DO A RECALL AND FIX THIS PROBLEM FOR THE SAFETY OF EVERYONE!”

“BRAKE LIGHTS STAY ON ALL OF THE TIME EXCEPT WHEN FOOT IS RESTING ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. HAVE TRIED TO CHANGE OUT THE BRAKE SENSOR AND THAT DOESN'T SEEM TO RESOLVE THE PROBLEM. BRAKE LIGHTS ARE ONE BOTH IN MOTION OR WHEN CAR IS JUST SITTING”

“2006 CHEVROLET MALIBU: POWER STEERING LOCKS UP! LOCKS UP TO THE POINT IT TAKE TWO PEOPLE TO TURN THE WHEEL, THIS HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING! HEADLIGHTS AND BRAKE LIGHTS GO OUT AND WHEN BULB IS REPLACED THEY BURN INSTANTLY. T/C NEVER TURNS OFF! RECENT COMPLAINTS FROM PEOPLE IN OTHER STATES HAVE BEEN MADE THERE ARE ALSO EVIDENT RECALLS BUT CHEVROLET FAILS TO HONOR THE RECALL AND REFUSE TO FIX BECAUSE THE CARS ARE 2006 AND THE UEAR NOW IS 2018. THIS IS NOT FAIR! WHAT ARE WE SUPPOSED TO DO? THIS IS A SAFTEY ISSUE! IT IS MORALLY UNETHICAL AND ILLEGAL FOR CHEVROLET NOT TO ACKNOWLEDGE AND HONOR THIS RECALL REGARDLESS IF THE CAR WE HAVE IS USED. IF THE RECALL WAS MADE AND WAS NOT FIXED THEY MUST ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE REPAIR WAS NOT MADE AND FIX THE PROBLEM FOR THE CAR OWNER! I AM SURE CHEVROLET HAS A DATABASE AND IS AWARE AT WHAT AND HOW MANY VEHICLES HAVE BEEN REPAIRED DUE TO THIS RECALL. WHAT ARE THEY WAITING FOR A LAWSUIT? I DEMAND THAT THIS RECALL BE HONORED AND THIS PROBLEM FIXED ASAP. IF I OR MY FAMILY ARE HARMED DUE TO THIS I WILL SUE SO HELP ME GOD! I AM SURE THERE ARE MANY PEOPLE OUT THERE WHO AGREE THAT WHAT CHEVROLET IS DOING IS WRONG! THE ISSUE HAPPENED SEVERAL…”
