Replying to: megzin (Apr 30, 2009 8:21 pm) Also there are couple more things specific to Malibus. First is the rear seat belt buckles hitting the seat surface, in the case of my 2LT, vinyl, which tends to increase in the cold weather. Second is the door "armrests", namely the connecting surfaces there. I had one of those squeaking from day one and my solution was, again, a delicate application of silicon spray. So, it's either excessive dryness caused by local weather conditions or perhaps there's some factory coating that is missing at places. At any rate, more a maintenance item that anything. Also, I keep reminding myself how quiet the car is which brings things like that to light. Of course I haven't driven your can and I don't know for sure.

| Recently purchased a 2008 Malibu LT. After the purchase noticed the seat rails under the seat are all rusty. There is no record of the car being in a flood. I think it is strange these would be rusty and wondering why or how this could happen. Anyone else have any idea? | |
