1999 Chevrolet Malibu LS review from North America
"Good reliable car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My serpentine belt + pulley snapped @ 90,000 miles.
General comments?
My Chevy Malibu is a decent car at a reasonable price.
This car is very reliable, as I've put 40,000 miles on it in 1 1/2 years.
The car gets decent gas mileage for a V6; I get an average of 24-26 mpg.
The car does great in the snow with good snow tires.
Gets me back and forth from school and work comfortably and reliably.
Would be a nice car for a family.
