I purchased the new redesigned 2016 Malibu on 5/8/2016. Since driving it I've noticed that the auto stop come on about 50% percent of the time. I finally brought it in to the dealer because I was wondering if this had anything to do with why my MPG has a combined average of 24 during 1400 miles of driving, mind you the EPA estimate is 27/37. They told me they adjusted the sensor however nothing has changed still getting crappy gas milage. In addition to this issue I have a really annoying vibration and rattle coming from the dash. It occurs mostly at low speed and when the car appears to be in a low gear. They had my car that time for 2 days giving me a loaner. They took my dash apart and told me there was a heater box loose. When I got my car back the vibration is louder than ever. I haven't even made my 1st car payment.
