A D V E R T I S E M E N T S
WHILE DRIVING MAINLY ON HIGHWAY AROUND 49-68PMH, THE CAR STARTS HESITATING TO POINT IT FEELS LIKE ITS MISSING OR GOING TO SHUT DOWN.
ON OR AROUND APRIL 2015 AFTER STARTING CAR IT STARTED UP ROUGH, THEN I DROVE IT ABOUT 35MPH DOWN A HILL APPROX. 1 MILE THEN CAME TO A STOP. THE CAR THEN SHUT OFF STOPPED RUNNING. I WAS ABLE TO RESTART IT AFTERWARDS, BUT THE CAR STILL HESITATES EVEN AFTER HAVING IT SERVICED APRIL 30TH 2014.
I ONCE AGAIN WENT BACK FOR THE PROBLEM TODAY, MAY 4, 2015, BECAUSE ONCE ON THE INTERSTATE AROUND SAME SPEED IT STARTED AGAIN. THE SERVICE MANAGER DROVE MY CAR, BUT SAID HE DIDN'T FEEL ANYTHING, BUT THEN HE TRIES TO CONVINCE ME THIS IS HOW NEW CARS RUN BECAUSE OF ALL THE COMPUTERIZED COMPONENTS. I
HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THIS ISSUE MORE THEN 3 TIMES NOW AND ON THE INVOICE IT STATES ERROR AND RESET OF SOMETHING. DURING LAST WEEK AT THE SERVICE CENTER A SHOP FOREMEN DROVE MY CAR AND SAID ITS WAS IN THE TORC CONVERTER AND HE SEEN THE RPM'S GAUGE GO UP AND DOWN DURING HIS DRIVE, BUT ONCE I GOT CAR BACK AFTER 5 DAYS IT WAS OR SAID TO BE AN ERROR. THEN TODAY THE SERVICE MANAGER TOLD ME THEY NEVER FOUND ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR.
NEEDLESS TO SAY AFTER LEAVING THE DEALER ONCE AGAIN HESITATION. COME ON NOW. I CRINGE AT THE THOUGHT OF BEING BROKE DOWN AS WELL AS EVEN DRIVING INTO THE SERVICE CENTER TO ADDRESS ANY ISSUES WITH THIS CAR I ONLY HAD FOR 8 MONTHS AND PURCHASED IT WITH 1670 MILES ON IT. IT NOW HAS 7109 MILES ON IT.
Update from Jul 14, 2015: The only way I got a resolution to the transmission issue and the hesitation issue, I traded the car in on May 26, 2015 for 2015 Malibu 1LT. So far no issues. After numerous times of trying to figure out the issues and the dealership Service Manager telling me to drive it until it breaks down was not an option for me. I traded the headache in and the car issues still remains. It is not their problem to solve, but now someone else issues as well. Sorry for whoever buys it, as it will still be an issue with hesitation.
