problem #3

Nov 102010

Malibu LS 2.2L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 90,000 miles

A D V E R T I S E M E N T S

The car did not start. Did not respond to Battery jump. Towed to shop in Ontario. Stranded. These yahoos kept the car for 2 days and did not finish, but made it drivable. When I got the car back the transmission was acting odd, like a slip, but not..possibly a power problem. That was $800 and it wasn't fixed completely, they wanted me to bring it back and I could not, I didn't trust them. I was told that I should get the tranny serviced..it was due, so took it to Aamco in Moreno Valley. THEY said, you need to replace..around $3000.00. I said, NO! service it so I can take to another mechanic. THAT was $200.00.

Next, took to GM's Only in Moreno Valley. This guy is $200. per hour mechanic, but he found: that the wire harness was kinked and he had to remove the tank to fix, replaced a couple of fuses and she runs fine now. His bill was $400.00. So if this is GM's fault on this repair I am really

angry.

GM's Only is a great shop by the way and I am grateful for an honest mechanic.

Malibu 3.5L

Master switch for power windows went out, never had it replaced, the problem occurs off and on. So for months at a time I can't roll down the windows.

problem #1

Malibu LTZ 3.5L V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 129,700 miles

the cruise control, transmission selector lite, backup lights, and manual shift for automatic transmission control all quit working at the same time, and then miraculously started working correctly with out an explanation. The dealer asked if the traction control light came on. It didn't and did come on properly when turned-on. This has happened two different times about 6 weeks apart.
