What is being recalled
General Motors, LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2022-2023 Chevrolet Malibu vehicles. The front impact bar, a structural portion of the vehicle frame, may not be properly welded to the front frame rail.
Why it is dangerous
An improperly welded front impact bar may result in the front crash sensors not performing correctly, increasing the risk of injury in a crash.
The fix (free at any franchised dealer)
Dealers will inspect the right-hand and left-hand side of the vehicle's motor rail for an incomplete weld. If the condition is found, the vehicle will be repurchased by GM. Owner notification letters were mailed January 20, 2023. Owners may contact Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020.
Recall repairs are always free, regardless of vehicle age or where you bought the car. Quote the campaign number 22V-923 when calling a dealer.
