What Owners Say

Dislikes

Gas mileage due to new engine
Sun visor - on 2005 malibu you could extend visor to cover more area
Lack of ashtray or two. presumptuous to assume drivers no longer smoke
Turn ratio is not as easy as my impala
Short trunk lid- limits access to some items that do fit in trunk
Rear seat could be a little bigger for 3 passengers
Wide panel on driver's side door and front window blocks view when turning
Headrest blocks too much visibility
Too many small storage spaces; glove box not large enough
Car sways more than i thought would in bad weather.
