2001 Chevrolet Malibu review from North America
"It really sucks"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rotors, brakes, hazard, additional sensor, egr valve.
General comments?
I have had to have my brakes, rotors, pads replaced every year since I bought it in 2001. I bought as a better, safer alternative to my 85 Crown Vic (it was my first car). I have had to have the hazard thing replaced, another sensor replaced, and now my egr valve. I am a college student and my mom is a teacher, so this thing that I've been driving is costing me so much money, that I had to take out a student loan to cover it, and I have a full ride scholarship to my school. This is sad.
