Hey what’s up Scotty! , I’m messages you because I watch your videos all the time and I feel like you’re the only mechanic out that keeps it real! , I have a 2016 Chevy Malibu rs with about 100k miles on it and it’s been giving me hell. It will cut off on me in the middle of driving leaving me in dangerous situations where the car has absolutely no power leaving me stranded in the middle of the road or highway. I’ve taken it to Chevrolet in New Jersey where I mostly get my service done and they’ve told me it was the ( Camshaft cover pcv system) that was causing my car to stall costing me $2,185.74 for repairs.. not almost a month later the car shuts off on me again and now keeps happening. I need TRUE advice , thank you for listening!

A lot of things can cause stalling ... flaky fuel pump ... janky ignition switch... vacuum leaks.

A mechanic needs to run tests to find out the cause. But you need to stay away from dealerships. Find a trustworthy independent guy so ask everybody you know.
