A very reliable car

Not a flashy vehicle, but very dependable. A comfortable ride and decent sound system. Not the best car winter driving. It was good vehicle for my family of 4 and still enough room for the family dog. Trunk is roomy, just not a very good opening to get things in it.

Cars deserve grace...

I love #1 its debt free but dislike it has minor issues that cost major money. Its really an inconvenience to have a shield covering the motor but it causes my car to overheat. Constantly getting notifications from OnStar about an electrical malfunction the dealership can't find. I give my car the same grace God has given me. Despite the problems I'm grateful my hubby can fix what some and we pray about the other.

Good reliable car for a reasonable price.

Nice car, good gas mileage pretty decent power from a 2.4L 4 cylinder, comfortable spacious interior, clean sporty looking exterior, nice sound system, handles more like a sports car than a passenger car.

My first new car

This has been a very good car. I haven't had to do any repairs since I've owned the car. It has a little over 100,000 miles on it.

reliable

Nice car with enough leg space in side. love the design and body still, drives nice. I like the older style malibu better the new one, They just look cool and drives better specially in the snow. I rented the new one better and i had a hard time driving in the snow
