Chevy Malibu most common problem

[esainpereda]

There’s a lady from Virginia that files a lawsuit for 6+ pump replacements under a year. Not sure why it isn’t a recall

For anyone wondering. This is the cam mounted vacuum pump. The sediment in your engine builds up in it no matter how often you change the oil. Eventually it seizes and explodes. The brakes will stop working (hopefully you aren’t driving) and little metal bits will be deposited into your crankshaft. This thing is like $70 I encourage you to change it annually.

Welcome to the new age of disposable vehicles. Pay high proces for junk thats thrown in a scra0 yard in 2 years. I wish wed never scrapped so many old cars bc we need them back

It's called a Camshaft Reluctor. My daughter called me and told me that her brakes went out on her just when she made it to work. She also said the car wouldn't start after stopped. It would just spin over but no crank. Well, I get there and I plugged a odsb whatever in it to read the code, but that code wasn't the issue. I unplugged her cam sensors and the car started up. So the problem is the Camshaft Reluctor in which controls the pump for the brakes.

My 2019 Malibu was awesome, it just got super slow during hot days. It wouldn’t take off in 1st gear properly but then would kick in during the end of the 1st gear before shift. I always did check ups and top offs

I’m never buying a Chevy after this. I actually hate my 2013 Malibu. I get depressed every time I get in it. There’s a problem every month

[philipsantoyo]

U didn’t explain jack squat with this click bait

Cylinder 3 misfire every few months, coolant leaks oil leaks.

[Swatson]

When this happens it usually also causes cam timing codes. Because the cam sensor ring on the back of the camshaft spins on the cam

I got a 2019 Malibu 1.5 turbo at my shop now that needs this vacuum pump for the brake booster. Gm needs to recall this issue because it's a life threatening issue. No brakes means death or very serious injuries.

People bring there yukons, silverados, sierras in for an oil change. Go to stop and the pedal is hard as a rock with no assist. Theres a recall on those pumps up to 100k miles.
