1999 Chevrolet Malibu sedan 4d review from North America
"It might look nice, but it is a horrible car to buy!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Check engine light always on (mechanic said it was because the gas cap was not on tight enough)
a new Catalytic Converter put in. A litter of gas was suck some were (mechanic said) and I could have blew up if I kept driving it.
The check engine light still turns on.
Rust on the bottom door of the driver's side of the car.
Air bubbles on and around the gas cap and on the trunk. The A/c and heater only works on the highest.
The back doors on both sides of the car squeaks
The seats feel like they are going to
break when you go to put them back
And all Seat belts will not stay buckled.
General comments?
This car feels like its going to blow up and takes for ever to get up and go.
But I really do like the Interior of the car.
