2002 Chevrolet Malibu Sedan review from North America
"This car sucks"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I own a 2002 Malibu. I bought the car in 2004. I am having problems with the hazard switch. The horn blows on it's own; and now I hear beeps coming from the radio and drivers door speaker when the radio is off.
Oh, and by the way, the CD player stopped working. When I called the dealer everyone was acting surprised to hear about a recall on the hazard switch. They informed me that it wasn't a recall, so I looked further into it and found that a recall was given; even though the dealer suggested to bring my car in and leave it so that they could give me an estimate on how much it would cost me to fix. The part itself cost $60, but the dealer was going to charge me $650 to fix the problem.
General comments?
Nothing but problems. This car is a lemon...
