The contact owns a 2005 Chevrolet Malibu maxx. The front passenger side turn signal bulb failed. One week later, the front driver's side turn signal bulb also failed. He took the vehicle to the dealer and they stated that the failure caused the light housing assembly to melt. The estimated cost for repair was $1,000. The current and failure mileages were 78,000.

My vehicle is a 2005 Chevy Malibu maxx. The vehicle doesn't always turn over. I have had my vehicle in the shop a couple of times to determine the problem and the Chevy dealer can't figure it out. I will try to start my vehicle but it doesn't always crank over. It will chug a lot and then stall out. Other times it will chug and act like it will stall and then turn over. Sometimes it takes 2-3 times for me to try and get the vehicle to start. I called my service department at the Chevy dealer every time it happened and the only common factor was that it was happening every 800-1000 miles approximately. It didn't matter how cold or hot it was, wet or dry. It has been awful! nothing has been replaced on the vehicle to try and fix the problem with it starting. My can has just over 32500 miles and is still under warranty. The most recent time was late September 2006. I am not sure on the exact date that I called my car dealer. I also took my vehicle in on 9-12-06 for a popping sound in the steering when turning. We found out that the center steering shaft was broke. It was replaced. There was a problem with the interior front blinker not working but the exterior did. Then shortly after the left front blinker blew.

The turn signals keep burning out. I took it back to the dealers but was told that my warranty had run out. So I am stuck buying lights almost every week.
