Replying to: packer3 (Aug 28, 2008 5:47 pm) I had an '07 Malibu rental with 15k on it from Enterprise for a month and it was solid as a tank, even in the freezing winter months, except for a clunking strut up front. Not a single vibe, ever, either. The last gen was known to have a few common noises, but this rental was a further push towards our '08 new purchase. Any clue as to why another Malibu is on my list--even though my issues aren't the norm for the G6--for a replacement when the lemon repurchase goes through for the Pontiac? Yeah, thought not. It'd be an even easier decision if there was a Malibu coupe...the one thing that gives me pause, ha! Oy, do I hate creaks and rattles...thankfully the Malibu is extremely well done in this regard, overall.

A little bit off topic but OnStar is paying off big time for those in the path of hurricane Gustav. According to an AP story GM was getting over 3,000 calls an hour as more than 2 million try to outrun the deadly storm. It is in times like these that make the annual fee of $299 worth worth every penny. Onstar was not only providing information about clog routes and gas stations but also information about..."hotels with vacancies and even locations of Red Cross emergency shelters." |

I own a 2008 Malibu LT and had not owned a domestic car in years. I love the car but I am having one annoying problem. I have had the car about 7 months and have had it at the dealer a few months ago for brake noise and bad rotors. They turned down the rotors and gave it new brakes. Now it is doing it again. I am getting vibration again when I brake and the squeaking noise is back. My boyfriend said that Chevy brakes and rotors are not the best. I love the car but if this keeps up I may have to consider a trade in. Anyone else having this problem?

| I bought my Malibu LTZ in Dec 2007. Within three months the heat on the passenger's seat comes on automatically. I took it to the dealer and they stated it was the module and it was replaced. Within in a month later it was doing the same thing. I took it back and they claim they replaced the switch. Now today I am dropping it back off at the dealership for the third time because the seat is heating up again without the button being pushed. I was trying to see if anyone else has had the same problem. | |
