problem #1

Mar 192006

Malibu 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 105,000 miles
Attempting to start car, theft system light comes on and disables car. Have to have it towed to dealer to get fixed. Non-dealer mechanic cannot fix. Only GM or Chevy dealer. This is the third time this has happened with this vehicle. I had a 98 same model that did the same thing at least 4 times.
