Common Problem

Auto Stop/Start Issues
The auto stop/start feature in the 2014 Chevy Malibu has been a source of frustration for several owners. Some have experienced stalling when the auto stop engages, particularly at full stops ,. Mechanics have noted that this feature can be problematic due to various potential causes of failure. Disabling the auto stop by disconnecting the hood latch electrical connector has been suggested as a workaround.
Engine Starting and Battery Light Problems
Owners have reported issues with the engine struggling to start after engaging the auto stop mode, sometimes requiring multiple attempts to restart. Additionally, intermittent battery light warnings related to the "service charging system" have been noted, even after replacing the alternator and battery. These issues may be linked to the auto stop/start system or other electrical components.
Transmission Concerns
Transmission problems have been highlighted, particularly when shifting between gears. The transmission may not catch properly, causing the car to buck, especially during gear shifts from 6th to 5th or 4th. Overfilled and discolored transmission fluid was identified as a potential issue, though dealerships have sometimes downplayed its significance.
Headlight Replacement Difficulty
Changing headlights in the Malibu can be challenging, requiring removal of the front bumper and quarter panel. This complexity might explain why some Malibus are seen with only one functioning headlight. Frequent burnout of headlights has also been reported, adding to maintenance concerns.
General Reliability and Maintenance
While some users report high mileage and satisfactory performance from their Malibus , others suggest that GM vehicles, including the Malibu, tend to require more frequent minor repairs after reaching 100,000 miles. Comparatively, while Toyota vehicles may break less often, they are more expensive upfront.
