problem #1

Malibu LS 3.1L V6

  • Automatic transmission

Ignition switch very touchy especially when a heavy set of keys were used. Switch would move a small amount and car would shut off. Had ignition switch replaced and that solved the problem. I bought the car used in 2005 because equivalent Honda or Toyota so much more expensive. Car still cheaper after one and a half years than more expensive Japanese Company models, even with repairs.
