problem #2

Aug 242015

Malibu 1LT 4 cyl

  • Manual transmission
  • 2,000 miles

Chevy is posting false mpg to sell their cars. I cannot get close to the miles on the window sticker. Car has been in the service dept twice to check if there is a problem with the car but everything is fine. Dealership does not want to help me with the problem. They suggested I contact General Motors. I am hoping someone will do a class action lawsuit on this problem. VW and Toyota were caught with false claims now it is Chevrolet turn to be investigated.

problem #1

Malibu LS

  • Automatic transmission
  • 9,100 miles

When I purchase the car the rating was 25 to 32 mile per gallon and as of this date I have not obtained that mileage. The most mpg I get is 22-23 miles per gallon. I haven't as yet returned the car for inspection on this issue, but plan on durning that in the near future.

Also I am having a problem with my trunk release, it sometime work and sometime don't.. I press the button on the key fob and on the car and it will not open until I put the key into the the ignition. This can be dangerous because if a person did not go back and check to make sure (as I did) the trunk was secure than on driving off the trunk can pop open and cause panic or and accident.
