2003 Chevrolet Malibu

Very reliable little Chevy. I bought this car in 2006. Easy to drive. Fits in small spots. Minor repairs along the way. Comfortable adjustable seats. Nice radio & CD player. I can play with the windows so that the wind can blow through my hair.

Still always got me home

Though the aging parts and materials on my current Malibu have been replaced its orginals are still holding up very well. If kept up with good maintenance this car will always bring you home even in its worst days. I work with pizza delivery and after a busy day a few years ago my Malibu felt weaker than usual . i was only 2 blocks away from home. It gave one last push that was powerful enough to get me home turned out it was time for a fuel pump change. It was already at 175000 miles . Even after 2 accidents this car is still up and goes . i still have it here with me and its a hell of a work horse at more than 200000 miles.

2003 Chevy Malibu review

I bought this car used, 3 years old. Have owned it for 13 years. Low mileage - around town only - average 8,000 miles yearly. Do routine maintenance and average cost of $1,500 yearly including new tires.

Almost 300,000 mi, original engine, still going.

A combination of fairly goood care and a good basic product has made it possible for me to drive this car until (I project) the wheels start falling off. I will most likely replace it with a car subscription. I doubt I'll find one like this again.

Malibu is an abomination of american automotive design.

Money money money. Problems problems and: More problems. Malibu is NOT a car you , I or anyone with knowledge of then, would ever want Detroit? Way to let Americans down and then kick and spit on them while they are down. Way to go.

Best Car Eer

Bought this car new and still have it 14 years later. This has been the best car I have ever owned. Rides beautifully, looks good and is amazingly comfortable to ride in. Absolutely love the sunroof, use it almost every day sometimes even in the winter. And the leather seats have really held up good. Love my Malibu .... next car .... another Mailbu. The wonderful people at Hillmans have kept my car running good and also kept the body in good shape ... all my cars will go exclusively to Hillmans.

@003 Malibu Review

Love our Malibu, it has always been a reliable car and with a comfortable drive. Great on gas for a v-6 engine. One low key is that the powder paint job does not last very long before it started to fade. Need to go back to the old way of vehicle painting to make car owners happy. Many complain about the paint not lasting in all makes and brands of cars. Older cars before powder painting are still holding the shine after 15yrs or more.

dependable car

My Malibu is very dependable. It runs good and is economical on fuel. A big.plus is it is great at handling parking spaces and tight squeezes.
