2003 Chevrolet Malibu Electrical System

HVAC SYSTEM HAS HAD NUMEROUS PROBLEMS FROM THE FAN NOT WORKING IN SELECTED SPEEDS TO THE AIR RECIRCULATE FUNCTION FAILING TO ENGAGE OR TO REMAIN ENGAGED. THE AC WOULD CUT ON AND OFF DURING USE THE RECIRCULATE FUNCTION WOULD STOP WORKING THE AC SYSTEM WOULD NOT TURN ON THE SYSTEM CONTROL UNIT, EVAPORATOR CORE AND COMPRESSOR WAS REPLACED WITHOUT ANY RESOLUTION OF THE PROBLEM. THE SYSTEM STILL FAILS TO WORK. MULTIPLE REPAIRS DONE WITHOUT RESOLUTION. *TR

THE CAR FAILS TO START DUE TO THE PASSLOCK II SYSTEM FAILURE. IT WILL NOT ENGAGE THE FUEL PUMP AND/OR IGNITION SYSTEM. THE THEFT LOCKOUT SYSTEM LIGHT STAYS ON OR FLASHES ALL OTHER DASH WARNING LIGHTS DO NOT LIGHT UP. THE CAR WILL START RANDOMLY WHEN ATTEMPTING TO START THE CAR. THE PASSLOCK II RELEARNING METHOD HAS TO BE USED TO START THE CAR AS INSTRUCTED BY GM IN THE OWNERS MANUAL SECTION 2 PAGE 17 WHEN THE THEFT SYSTEM FAILS. THIS METHOD WILL WORK RANDOMLY. NO KNOW REPAIR. *TR

I BOUGHT A CHEVY MALIBU NEW IN 2003. I NEVER KNEW IT HAD ANY ANTI THEFT DEVICE. THREE WEEKS AGO THE ANTI THEFT LIGHT CAME ON. I IGNORED IT. AFTER A FEW DAYS THE CAR WOULD NOT START. THE ENGINE STARTED TO RUN BUT SPUTTERED OUT. I LOOKED IN THE INSTRUCTION MANUAL THAT CAME WITH THE CAR. IT SAYS IF THE ANTI THEFT LIGHT COMES ON (FOR NO REASON) TURN IGNITION TO ON POSITION WAIT TEN MINUTES TURN CAR OFF AND THE CAR WILL START. I FOLLOWED INSTRUCTIONS AND CAR STARTED. SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN YESTERDAY. I FOLLOWED INSTRUCTIONS AND CAR RUNS AGAIN. PROBLEM I HAVE IS WHY WOULD THE ANTI THEFT SYSTEM BE ACTIVATED FOR NO REASON? CHEVY KNEW THIS HAPPENS AND THIS IS WHY THEY HAVE IT WRITTEN UP IN THE INSTRUCTION MANUAL. IF THE ANTI THEFT SYSTEM IS FAULTY IE COMES ON FOR NO REASON AND PROHIBITS THE CAR FROM STARTING, CHEVY SHOULD NOT HAVE INSTALLED IT IN THE FIRST PLACE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2003 CHEVROLET MALIBU. THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO START THE IGNITION BUT THE ENGINE FAILED TO OPERATE WITH THE ILLUMINATION OF THE ANTI-THEFT SECURITY SYSTEM WARNING INDICATOR. THE ENGINE WAS RESTARTED AFTER TEN TO FIFTEEN MINUTES. IN ADDITION, THE SAME FAILURE WOULD OCCUR WHILE DRIVING AND RESULT IN THE VEHICLE STALLING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER WHO ADVISED THAT THE IGNITION SYSTEM AND COMPUTER MODULE WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 36,000. UPDATED 01/03/12*LJ UPDATED 01/04/12

AT LEAST ONCE A WEEK SINCE PURCHASING THE CAR I AM UNABLE TO START IT BECAUSE THE ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM WILL BLOCK THE CAR FROM STARTING. I WILL PUT THE KEY IN THE IGNITION AND THE SENSOR LIGHT WILL FLASH. I HAVE TO WAIT EXACTLY 10 MINUTES WITH THE KEY TURNED TO "ON" BEFORE THE LIGHT STOPS FLASHING AND I CAN TURN THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON AGAIN. ON A FEW OCCASIONS THIS HAS OCCURRED BACK TO BACK RESULTING IN HAVING TO WAIT AT LEAST 20 MINUTES TO START MY CAR. I HAVE SEEN THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM FOR THIS CAR, WHICH SEEMS TO DEFEAT THE PURPOSE OF A SAFETY FEATURE IF YOU HAVE TO WAIT IN A DARK PARKING LOT ALONE FOR 10 MINUTES BECAUSE OF FAULTY CONSTRUCTION. *TR

PARKED THE CAR, CAME BACK OUT AND IT WOULDN'T START, THOUGH THERE WAS POWER FROM THE BATTERY AND THE ENGINE ACTED LIKE IT WAS TRYING TO TURN OVER (INDICATING THAT IT WASN'T THE ALTERNATOR). HAD TO HAVE CAR TOWED. TURNED OUT THAT THE "THEFT SYSTEM" (PASSLOCK) LOCKED ME OUT. MECHANICS "RESET" IT. IT HAPPENED AGAIN ABOUT 10 DAYS LATER. *TR

NHTSA ACTION NUMBER (PE05055) WAS INITIALLY ISSUED IN 2004 FOR A DEFECTIVE TURN SIGNAL/HAZARD FLASHERS THAT BECOME INOPERATIVE ON MODEL YEAR 1999-2000 MALIBU, ALERO, GRAND AM, AND 1999 CUTLASS. THIS ACTION NUMBER WAS LATER REVISED IN 2005 TO INCLUDE MODEL YEAR 2001-2002 MALIBU, ALERO, AND GRAND AM VEHICLES. THE RESULTING DOCUMENT FROM GM FOR THE INITIAL MODEL YEAR RANGE WAS: SPECIAL POLICY ADJUSTMENT - TURN SIGNALS/HAZARD WARNING FLASHERS #04098 - (DEC 16, 2004) GM DOCUMENT ID# 1578551 AND WHEN THE MODEL YEAR RANGE WAS EXTENDED: SPECIAL POLICY ADJUSTMENT-TURN SIGNAL/HAZARD WARNING FLASHERS #04098A - (JAN 11, 2006) GM DOCUMENT ID# 1750030 - I OWN (BOUGHT IT NEW) A 2003 CHEVY MALIBU THAT HAS EXPERIENCED THE SAME SYMPTOM OF INTERMITTENT TURN SIGNAL FAILURE. BOTH LEFT AND RIGHT TURN SIGNALS SOMETIME WORK AND SOMETIME DO NOT. YOU CAN NEVER KNOW WHEN IT WILL OR WILL NOT WORK. THIS IS A REAL SAFETY RISK. THE SWITCH TYPE IN THE 2003 MALIBU APPEARS TO BE THE SAME AS IN THE PREVIOUS YEARS FOR WHICH GM ISSUED THE SPECIAL POLICIES (NOTED ABOVE). ON OCTOBER 8TH 2011, I REPLACED THE TURN SIGNAL/HAZARD WARNING FLASHER SWITCH THAT WAS IDENTIFIED IN THE GM DOCUMENT. (REPLACED WITH DORMAN PART 924-601). IT HAS BEEN ALMOST 3 WEEKS SINCE THE REPLACEMENT AND I HAVE NOT EXPERIENCED THE PROBLEM. I WOULD HAVE SEEN THE PROBLEM OCCUR DURING THIS 3 WEEK PERIOD. IN CASE IT HELPS IN YOUR INVESTIGATION, THE NUMBER ON THE DEFECTIVE SWITCH I REMOVED FROM MY 2003 MALIBU IS : 22594146 0843 F I WANTED TO REPORT THIS FAILURE AS THERE IS A POSSIBLY THAT THERE WILL BE OTHERS WITH THE MODEL YEAR 2003 MALIBU''S THAT HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS PROBLEM AND WILL ALSO FILE A CLAIM WITH NHTSA. IF THIS IS THE CASE, GM WILL NEED TO ONCE AGAIN EXTEND THE RANGE OF VEHICLES AFFECTED BY THE DEFECTIVE SWITCH/HAZARD FLASHERS AND INCLUDE THIS EXTENDED RANGE IN THEIR SPECIAL POLICY ADJUSTMENT. *TT

THE VEHICLE WILL NOT TURN ON EVERY FEW TIMES WHEN TRYING TO TURN IT ON. THE THEFT LIGHT BEGINS TO BLINK. I HAVE TO TURN IT TO THE "ON" POSITION FOR 10 MINUTES FOR IT TO RESTART, THEN IT WILL WORK. *TR

I HAVE BEEN HAVING REPEATED PROBLEMS WITH MY CARS THEFT SYSTEM DEFAULTING AND NOT ALLOWING MY CAR TO START RANDOMLY ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN REOCCURRING FOR ABOUT THE PAST 4-5 YEARS.THERE WERE NO EVENTS LEADING UP TO THIS FAILURE, IT JUST HAPPEND. IT OCCURS ALMOST DAILY AND IS A HUGE INCONVENIENCE. I HAVE TAKEN THE VECHILE TO SEVERAL GM DEALERSHIPS AND HAVE BEEN TOLD ITS THE PASSLOCK, BCM, CAR NOT READING THE KEY, AND SEVERAL OTHER ISSUES. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLM AS WELL BUT WANTED TO CHARGE ME OVER 900 DOLLARS FOR FIX SOMETHING THEY THINK IT COULD BE AS WELL. I CAN PLACE THE KEY IN THE ON SETTING IN THE IGNITION FOR ANYWHERE FROM 15-30 MINUTES PLUS SOMETIMES AND THIS EVENTUALLY WORKS, BUT IT A HUGE INCONVENIENCE. I HAVE BEEN STRANDED SEVERAL TIMES DUE TO THIS SAME ISSUE AS WELL. *TR

GM CHEVY MALIBU PASSLOCK SYSTEM. ORIGINALLY I HAD A 1998 MALIBU AND THOUGHT THAT IT WAS UNREPAIRABLE SO I SOLD IT FOR SCRAPS AND BOUGHT A 2003 MALIBU AND ABOUT EVERY MONTH (2 TIMES PER MONTH FOR THE PAST 3 MONTHS) I GO TO WORK OR STORE JUST FINE AND WHEN I COME OUT IT DOESN'T START. I'VE BEEN TAKEN THROUGH SEVERAL DIFFERENT SCENARIOS BY THE MECHANIC AT THE CHEVY DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED THE 2003 MALIBU FROM, ONLY TO BE TOLD THAT THERE WERE SEVERAL ISSUES WITH IT AND THEY HAVE FIXED IT COSTING ME ABOUT $500 EVERY TIME IT OCCURS. IT WASN'T UNTIL IT HAPPENED LAST MONTH WHILE LEAVING WORK AND A CO-WORKER CALLED A MECHANIC FRIEND OF HERS WHO INFORMED ME OF THE PASS LOCK SYSTEM FAILURE AND TOLD ME TO WAIT 10 MINUTES THEN START IT UP. SINCE THEN IT'S HAPPENED 2 MORE TIMES, ONCE WHILE MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING (LUCKILY I WAS WITH HER TO KNOW HOW TO HANDLE IT). I'VE CALLED THE GM TO NO AVAIL; THEY SEEM TO KNOW NOTHING OF THIS ISSUE AND THEIR MECHANICS DON'T ACKNOWLEDGE IT BEING A PROBLEM EITHER SO BECAUSE THEY'VE "REPLACED" OR "FIXED" SEVERAL ISSUES (NOT THE ISSUE PLAGUING THE VEHICLE) WHICH THEY PROBABLY MADE UP; I'M OUT OF THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS! THIS IS AN ISSUE THAT HAS APPARENTLY BEEN GOING ON WITH THIS MODEL FOR SEVERAL YEARS AND THEY (GM) REFUSES TO RECALL THE ISSUE OR MAKE ANY EFFORT TO FIX THE PROBLEM. THANK GOD I PUT AWAY MONEY FOR RAINY DAYS BUT I AM LIVID THINKING ABOUT HOW MUCH I WOULD HAVE SAVED IF IT WEREN'T FOR GM OR CHEVY! THE GOVERNMENT NEEDS TO RECALL THIS PIECE OF EQUIPMENT IMMEDIATELY; BEFORE GM SWINDLES ANYMORE UNSUSPECTING DRIVERS OUT OF THEIR MONEY!

I HAVE A 2003 CHEVY MALIBU WITH A PASSLOCK SYSTEM. THE "THEFT SYSTEM" LIGHT COMES ON EVEN WHILE I'M DRIVING! OR THE CAR SIMPLY WON'T START, EVEN THOUGH IT'S IN MY OWN DRIVEWAY AND NO ONE HAS MESSED WITH IT. THE ONLY 'SOLUTION' IS TO WAIT 10 MINUTES (SOMETIMES LONGER) UNTIL THE CAR WILL START AGAIN. THIS IS RIDICULOUS! I'VE CHECKED ONLINE AND THERE'S COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE PASSLOCK SYSTEM EVERYWHERE. WHY HAS THIS NOT BEEN RECALLED YET? I'M A SINGLE MOTHER AND I CAN'T AFFORD -- LITERALLY OR FIGURATIVELY -- TO PAY FOR UNNECESSARY CAR REPAIRS....ESPECIALLY WHEN THE PASSLOCK IS A *KNOWN* PROBLEM AND CHEVY REFUSES TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. I ALSO CAN'T AFFORD ANOTHER CAR AND NOW I'M WORRIED EVERY TIME I SHUT OFF THE CAR, WILL IT LET ME START IT BACK UP AGAIN? HELP! *TR

PASSLOCK ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM ENGAGING AND NOT ALLOWING CAR TO START. STARTED HAPPENING ABOUT TWO YEARS AGO. RESEARCHED ON THE INTERNET AND ASKED PROFESSIONAL ASE MECHANICS. NO WARRANTY OR TSB AVAILABLE TO FIX PROBLEM, BUT PLENTY OF COMPLAINTS. CAR HAS NOT SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING. *TR

2003 CHEVY MALIBU: THE THEFT LIGHT COMES ON AND THE CAR WILL NOT START FOR A PERIOD OF TIME. THIS HAPPENS JUST ABOUT EVERY DAY, AND WE HAVE TO WAIT FOR THE CAR TO START. THE CAR ALSO DIES ON US WHILE WE ARE DRIVING, PUTTING US IN A VERY SERIOUS AND DANGEROUS SITUATION. WITHOUT WARNING IT JUST SHUTS OFF. *TR

I HAVE A 2003 MALIBU THE ANTI THEFT COMES ON ALOT TO FIX THIS U HAVE TO HAVE THE KEY IN THE ON FOR ABOUT 10 MIN,THEN TURN THE KEY IN THE OFF AND TURN THE CAR ON, AND IT STARTS, BUT THAT TRICK IS TAKING LONGER AND LONGER EACH TIME ONE DAY IT WILL LEAVE ME THERE, I THINK CHEVY SHOULD RECALL THIS AND FIX IT... THERE IS NO WAY OF KNOWING WHEN AND WHY THIS HAPPENS. CHEVY SAYS THEY NEED MORE PEOPLE TO CAMPAIGN ABOUT THIS BEFORE THEY WILL DO ANYTHING SO HERE IT IS... *TR

WHILE DRIVING THE CAR ON FREEWAY IT JUST STALLED. I COASTED TO BERM. IT THEN RESTARTED. I'VE HAD ALL KINDS OF ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS WITH THIS CAR, BUT THIS IS A SAFETY PROBLEM. I'VE READ THAT THIS ENGINE CUTTING OUT IS PROBABLY ASSOCIATED WITH THE PASSLOCK SYSTEM. I'VE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THAT SYSTEM EVER SINCE I'VE HAD THE CAR. *TR

THE PASSLOCK ANTI THEFT SYSTEM IS A VERY DANGEROUS SYSTEM. THERE HAVE BEEN THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS SYSTEM. THOUSANDS OF ANGRY, FRUSTRATED PEOPLE THAT ARE BEING LEFT WITH NO RECOURSE. THE PROBLEM DATES FROM THE 1990S.THROUGH 2010. THE PROBLEM SHOULD HAVE BEEN ADDRESSED BEFORE NOW. I JUST SPENT OVER $5000. FOR A CAR THAT CANNOT BE MOVED OUT OF MY DRIVE WAY I DON'T THINK CONGRESS HEARD THE SCREAMS I'VE HEARD AND READ ABOUT THIS PROBLEM ('I'LL NEVER BUY ANOTHER GM CAR AGAIN', OR 'IF THERE IS EVER A CLASS ACTION SUITE, COUNT ME IN') WE DON'T KNOW HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE BEEN HURT BECAUSE THEY HAVE BEEN LEFT STRANDED, OR THEIR CARS CAUSED WRECKS BECAUSE THE PASSLOCK SYSTEM KICKED IN AND CUT OFF THE FUEL WHILE THEY WERE GOING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT 70 MILES AN HOUR. IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO READ ABOUT SO MANY UNHAPPY PEOPLE. I CAME FROM A GENERATION OF PEOPLE THAT WORKED FOR FIFTY YEARS. WE DID ALL THE THINGS WE WERE SUPPOSED TO. WE WORKED HARD, PAID OUR BILLS AND TRUSTED THAT WE WOULD BE TREATED FAIRLY. TO REALLY FIND OUT ABOUT PASSLOCK, JUST GOOGLE PASSLOCK COMPLAINTS. THESE ARE JUST A FEW OF THE LINKS TO COMPLAINTS.
