2011 Malibu

Asked by Shellif Jan 06, 2017 at 05:23 AM

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 2011 chevy Malibu and something
is wrong with it.. It starts shaking and won't
go, I'll floor it and it still won't go. The lights
read engine power reduced, something
about traction control, and esc as well as
the check engine light. Does anybody
know what this means??

I agree with tennisshoes, have the codes read to verify what is going on. I have run into this and suspect the Throttle Position Sensor, and or the plugin going into the TPS may have a broken wire.
