Had to have the module replaced. Mechanic didn't know why it went but knew thats what I needed. After contacting GM they said that it was not a manufactures defect and could not give me a reason why it just went out.

problem #1

Malibu

While operating the vehicle the RPM gauge started to show max RPM readings to 0 and changing rapidly. The car was being driven to the repair shop to have this checked when at a intersection the vehicle just cut off. The engine did not stop but the car could only be moved very slowly until a minute or two past then the speed went up a bit. The repair facility found a crankshaft sensor and the computer to be the fault. Currently the vehicle runs good, but the gas mileage is only about 17-18 mpg. Will turn it back into the german dealer to have this checked.
