Got this car back in December of 2006. It hasn't given me any major problems until this. At first we thought it was the heater core because the air conditioner and heater weren't working right, and there was a gurgling noise coming from the dash. It was losing coolant somewhere, and after noticing that it wasn't running out on the ground, we checked the oil to find it was indeed milky. So it appears that the same problem tons of other malibu owners have been having has hit me, and since Chevy/GM apparently doesn't think customer satisfaction is important, it isn't covered under their amazing 100,000 mile power train warranty (they started that with the 2007 models). So, I'm left with a hunk of useless metal that I still have a payment on and can't afford to get fixed. Thanks Chevrolet for your worthless attempt at a vehicle. Unless they show me they actually care about their customers, I WON'T be buying from them again!
