Have a Service ESC on dash know it has to do with steering and traction control. Will a scanner that does general codes will that pull up the code or do i need what the dealer has. My scanner is 200 miles away and the car with a grandson.
 
Possibly it's a some minor code and may reset itself like a dirty wheel speed sensor. Try disconnecting the battery, wait a minute, touch the + and - leads from the car together for a couple of seconds and then re-connect the battery.

Don't try the above if the car is a hybrid/electric.
 
reading on the malibu forums as my girlfriend has an oil sucking 13 2.5 LS there is a 15 page discussion about it, could be minor or major + a safety issue. seems the malibu's are problematic, check out the posts on wheel bearing failures, sister has 3 on her 2010 before trading @ 99,XXX miles! good luck
