Power failure- driving approx. 20MPH- car hesitates- travels 3-5MPH-need to stop the car to pick up speed. Had it to the dealer 10 times- replaced PCM, fuel regulater/pump and catalytic converter -power loss problem still remains.
General motors recently recalled the 1997-2005 chevrolet malibu for the ignition switch problem. I own the sister vehicle which is a 1998 oldsmobile cutlass. This vehicle is the identical layout of the chevrolet malibu which has been recalled. I sent a couple of e-mail messages to the GM customer assistance center and just received a phone call explaining to me that at this time they had no intention of doing a recall on the oldsmobile cutlass for the ignition switch.
