2003 Chevrolet Malibu review from North America
"A good everyday car for everyday folks. If money is tight it might be right!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Brake calipers were leaking and needed to be replaced at 70000 km. ($500)
The circuit board that controls the signal lights needed to be replaced ($400)
Accelerator pedal linkage needed to be replaced (Warranty)
Gear shift and linkage needed to be replaced (Warranty)
Sway arms needed to be greased because of noise. (Warranty)
General comments?
This car is very nice on the hwy and has good road manners. It handles well in the snow and is a pleasure to drive. It has plenty of power, but is a bit dull looking.
