2000 Chevrolet Malibu V-6 review from North America

Began having problems with the coolant level at 11,000 miles. Problem continues.

Had problems with vent switch at 20,000 miles. Replaced twice and still have problems.

Replaced mirror switch at 25,000 miles.

Replaced brake pads 2 months ago, had to replace again yesterday along with the front left rotor.

Since replacing brakes, they only work to 40% usage.

Since replacing brakes, car stalls every time the brake is applied.

Signal light switch went haywire at 50,000 miles. Hazard switch had to be replaced to correct the problem. Dealership told me this was becoming a fairly common problem in Malibu's.

I loved this car when I bought it, until it was attacked by gremlins!!!

I continue to have problems since I changed the brakes only yesterday.

Now, the car stalls when you hit the brakes and I continue to lose coolant.

Is there any hope for this car or should I get rid of it before it costs me a fortune?

Of course when the car was under warranty the dealership told me there was nothing wrong. I knew there was something wrong. I took the car to the dealership many times over the coolant level, and complained that the car kept acting like it wanted to stall. They basically told me I was hearing things.

Now I have no warranty and this car stinks!!! 60,000 miles and I am ready to stick a rag in the gas tank and light it up!!! I can't see GM owning up to their very poor craftsmanship!
