ALSO OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING AT BOTH LOW AND HIGH SPEEDS. THE POWER STEERING WAS FAILING WITHOUT WARNING! IT WAS PARTICULARLY FRIGHTENING AT HIGH SPEEDS AND WOULD HAPPEN WITH NO WARNING. THIS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES ON MANY DIFFERENT OCCASIONS BEFORE THE CHIME SOUNDED AND THE WORDS POWER STEERING APPEARED ON MY DASH INFORMATION. AFTER BRINGING THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY FIXED IT CITING THE PROBLEM AS \"CODE 0475 - POWER STEERING MOTOR SHORTED INTERNALLY, REPLACED POWER STEERING MOTOR AND SET UP NEW MODULE\". THE TOTAL COST WAS $847.87. AFTER DOING FURTHER RESEARCH I FOUND OUT THAT MANY 2008 CHEVROLET MALIBUS HAD BEEN RECALLED FOR THE SAME EXACT ISSUE. IN TWO DIFFERENT RECALL LETTERS RELEASED BY GM IT WAS STATED \"2008 MODEL YEAR CHEVROLET MALIBU...EQUIPPED WITH ELECTRIC POWER STEERING, MAY HAVE A CONDITION WHERE THERE IS A LOSS OF POWER STEERING ASSIST\". THE LETTER FURTHER STATED \"FOR 2008 MODEL YEAR VEHICLES, DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE POWER STEERING MOTOR CONTROL MODULE\". WHICH IS EXACTLY WHAT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED ON MY VEHICLE AS PER MY DEALERSHIP RECEIPT. THE LETTER SAID \"IF THIS CONDITION OCCURS ON YOUR 2008 MODEL YEAR CHEVROLET MALIBU VEHICLE WITHIN 10 YEARS OF THE DATE YOUR VEHICLE WAS ORIGINALLY PLACED IN SERVICE OR 100,000 MILES, THE CONDITION WILL BE REPAIRED FOR YOU AT NO CHARGE\". I CONTACTED GM WITH MY INFORMATION ATTEMPTING TO BE REIMBURSED. AFTER MULTIPLE PHONE CALLS AND EVERYONE TELLING ME MY VIN # WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL AND THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO I FINALLY GAVE UP. TO ADD INSULT TO INJURY CHEVROLET SENT ME A LETTER STATING \"PLEASE ACCEPT THIS LETTER WORTH UP TO $100 TOWARDS YOUR NEXT MAINTENANCE SERVICE OR REPAIR ON YOUR 2008 CHEVROLET MALIBU\". I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER CAR FROM GM AND WILL SPREAD THE WORD ABOUT THIS ISSUE.   *TR","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2008","productMake":"CHEVROLET","productModel":"MALIBU","manufacturer":"General Motors, LLC"}]}]}
