2001 Chevrolet Malibu review from North America
"It is not worth your money, although they are very cheap low class economy cars"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The third week I got my car the front rotors had to be replaced.
It sounds like it's going to stall every morning when I start my car.
Windshield Wipers are horrible.
Air Conditioner/Heat doesn't work on 1,2,or 3.
Makes a thumping noise and I brought it to the shop, but they didn't find anything wrong with it.
General comments?
This car picks up really fast, the steering is tight so it has better handling. The seats are very uncomfortable though. I would not recommend getting this car. It seems like Chevy did not take their time to make this car and it was very poorly made. I don't think I would own another Chevy again. As of right now, I am now selling my Chevy Malibu.
