2014 CHEVROLET MALIBU
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
General Motors is recalling certain 2014 Chevrolet Malibu vehicles with 2.5L engines equipped with the auto stop/start option, manufactured between June 12, 2013, and May 2, 2014. These vehicles may lose brake vacuum assist, which disables the hydraulic boost assist system. When this occurs, drivers must apply significantly more pressure to the brake pedal and the vehicle requires a longer distance to stop, increasing the risk of a crash.
To remedy this issue, GM will notify affected owners and dealers will update the electronic brake control module software at no charge. The recall began on July 3, 2014. Owners of affected vehicles should contact General Motors customer service at 1-800-222-1020, and can reference recall number 14201.
