2002 Chevrolet Malibu - review from North America
"Lemon / junk"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
More problems with my Malibu... Rust around the gas intake area. Told by Maaco that it is a design fault. I see rust around this area on tons of Malibu's now. It will cost me $800 to get it fixed.
Also just spent $800 getting a new ignition switch.
In total will have spent $8200 in repairs.
A lemon.
