2001 Chevrolet Malibu 4dr Sedan review from North America
"It would be a nice car if it did not have so much wrong with it"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Our car started to make a humming noise about 200 miles after we got the car. The dealership had said that it was the hub assemably.
Then our brake light came on at about 33,000 miles and we went to the dealership for the same thing twice.
While we were there for the brake light they had to replace our upper strut on the passagers side.
Now at 40,000 miles our ABS light is on and they do not know what is wrong with it.
General comments?
The car handles great when not in the shop.
The cabin is very roomy and seats are very comfortable.
We love having the sedan look sporty.
