2006 Chevrolet Malibu LS from North America - Comments

My 2004 Malibu had 3 sets of front brakes, 3 steering shafts, a new stereo and power window issues all before 22000 miles and 15 months, after which it was repurchased as a lemon. Why can't GM make brakes that last longer than 10000 miles? I am having to have mine replaced on my 2006 Impala already???

27,000 miles now there is a clunking noise when I turn the steering wheel. I am starting t get very upset with this car. The little rubber piece that the put on so your keys don't bang against the dashboard has fallen off. This car is falling apart and it isn't 2 years old yet. My gas mileage has also dropped from 31 to 27. I drive straight highway the same route everyday. It might be time to look into a new car.

I have a 2006 Malibu and had bumping in my steering also. The dealer replaced the steering gear box and all is well.

36000 miles and I think it is a great car. Mileage is staying about 30.5 to 31 miles per gallon driving to work and back.

30,000 miles we still love the car. The alignment is a little off, but that is understandable with all the pot holes. I will have to get new tired soon they are starting to where out. I'm still having the no power with the car. Every three months or so I will start the car and it will not go over 3000 rpm or shift gears. I have to pull over and let it sit running for 10 minutes or so, then it is fine. It is just a minor inconvenience. The car seems to be holding up well. I am thinking of buying a 2008 malibu. I love the new styling and want a V6. I'm still get 30 mpg average.
