1997 Chevrolet Malibu review from North America
"I'm going back to buying cars made in the 1960/70's"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
On cold engine start, the engine surges.
Engine light comes on/off like a yo-yo.
A/C and heat stopped working, yet the engine light does not indicate that there is a problem.
General comments?
Computer technology in cars reminds me of Microsoft, except when I turn my engine off and back on again, the problem is not resolved.
