Malibu Wheel Jerk

  

0
Topic starter

Hey Scotty,

My fiancé drives a 2018 Chevy Malibu LT with about 80k miles and an automatic transmission. She has recently started saying that her steering wheel sometimes has a quick and sudden jerk to the right. She says it only happens at slow speeds. What could this piece of junk be doing? Thanks.

Way to many options, but to be safe take it to a small shop u trust make sure it's not a safety issue. Plus drive it yourself because it may be something simple.  It worse. Tranny slipping


I tested it out. It only seems to happen when starting from a dead stop. I am wondering if it has to do with the auto-off/on feature at stops.

  1. Good idea, u would have to do digging to see if you can shut off that feature, I would recommend trying it. I never liked that feature on most cars trucks, seems like starters would go out early.
