problem #2

Dec 012011

Malibu LS V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 22,000 miles

I traveled to the Beach Cities in California and my defroster would not clear my windows fast enough, here in Arizona I see that it also takes long, I'm having to roll down my windows or avoid driving out in those weather conditions. I haven't taken it to a dealer, cause I've had other issues with my car too that needed fixing.

I don't see that anyone else has this problem or is listed here. any feedback would be appreciated.

problem #1

Nov 212015

Malibu 4

  • Automatic transmission
  • 85,000 miles

the inside front and rear windows were covered in fog

first I like my car. I have had 2 hit and runs on my car one scraped the side door the other a pickup backed into the corner of my bumper and left a crater. a couple of guys where i bought my tires took out most of the dent. I noticed the side panel of the bumper is loose. I have had the trunk fill with water when going through the car wash. I dont go anymore.. now there is a lot of humidity in the car. there is fog on front and rear windows and the frost on the outside doesnt melt away while all the other cars do. now the top 4 lines of my defrosters on the back window dont work. I believe the humidity and frost are connected with the hit on my bumper but would truly like other opinions. i live in the NE so it is going to be a problem if it isnt fixed
