Recalls and complaints

Owners filed 711 complaints with NHTSA, most often about engine, electrical system and power train; have those parts checked. NHTSA lists 6 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent.

Engine and fuel

The 1.5L 4-cylinder turbo with front-wheel drive is the powertrain to look at. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.

Fuel use is rated 7.8 L/100 km combined, so 300 km needs about 23 litres. That works out to about $12.09 per 100 km at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,250 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

Size and space

It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with. The EPA measures its luggage space at 368 litres, roughly about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

Who the Malibu suits

It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.

Try before you buy

Rent first, buy later: a week with the Malibu answers the big questions. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience.

Running costs

Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $120.90 at our price setting. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel.

Picking a year and a trim

A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.

A note on Progreso

If you need it in Progreso itself, send a request and we will tell you honestly whether we can help. CarmaCars is based in Toronto, about 2,654 km from Progreso, and does not deliver there.
