While Nissan, Toyota, GM sell their cars almost at same price, get a Nissan or Toyota. Say no to GM

2002 Chevrolet Malibu 6 cylinder review from North America

"I could do without the headache"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

I own a 2002 Chevy Malibu, I have experienced at one point my A/C blowing only hot air then out of no where about an hour later it started working again. I never thought anything of the situation until I read the reviews listed on this site. Just recently I've became fed up with this vehicle. On Friday (today is Thursday) When I got off work my car would not start and the Anti Theft light was blinking. My car would not start for days I had it towed to the dealer on Monday in which it still wouldn't start. The dealer charged $60.00 for the tow and after missing 3 days of work I get my car back with a total charge of $150.00 for a radiator cap and coolant overflow bucket which has nothing to do with the car not starting. But if those items were not repaired I would have voided my warranty. Long story short. Nothing was detected in the exam of the car. The only they could say is that the Body Control Module within the Anti Theft System could be the case in which they have no equipment to assist with the possible problem. I am then told to not be surprised if I go to the store and my car not start when I come out. I HATE THIS CAR.

General comments?

This car runs really nice, but the process of up keeping it sucks.

I would rather have something else.
