1998 Chevrolet Malibu review from North America

I bought my 98 Malibu only 2 months ago. After reading these reviews, I am horrified and scared for the safety of myself and my 2 young children when driving this vehicle. As well as many other drivers, my air will not start until put at 3, it then will flicker on and off. I truly thought it was a malfunction within my vehicle.

Every time the battery is disconnected the pin on the gas gage gets stuck straight down. I have to manually push it back up (sticking anything available in the small opening at the mile setter). To this day, it won't read above half a tank. So my car being the gas guzzler it is, I never know how much gas I have.

One thing that really scares me is when I'm coming to a stop, w/the pedal to the brake pedal at the floor, it accelerates forward.

When making turns, my steering wheel makes horrible rumbling/creaking sounds as if the whole thing's just going to fall off.

I'm almost convinced the dealers know a way of making all of this dis noticeable when allowing someone to check these vehicles out.

I never dreamed of such reviews on a car that I own. It seems so unreal, like this type of performance from a car would never be aloud.
