| I purchased this car with 14,444 miles after 500 miles i took the car to the dealership. this car was taken back to chevy and they could not find the problems after 7 tries. i than took the car to the chrysler dealership and all they did was set in the car and found out that my rack-n-opinion was bad. this was replaced but, the hub bearings had to be replaced also at another dealership, i am having whining noise when i turn and also the car is wearing out tires. there has been 3 tires replaced on this car with 1 year. no one wants to fix my car or replace it. this car is not safe for me or other drivers on the road. if i could afford to buy another car, i would. l am so disappointed with gm products. this is my 4 car with gm and i am never going to buy another car. i am not the only customer that is having problems with the 2010 malibu. *tr | |||

| Upon accelerating from a parking lot to the road i heard a loud bang from the rear of the car. i stopped to do a visual inspection as it sounded like it came from the rear suspension. i countinued a mile down the road while slowing for a stop sign i heard another noise from the same area and heard a metal object bounce under the car and down the road. i recovered a piece of a broken spring that had come from my right rear suspension. i went directly to the chevy dealer and they confirmed the failure. | |||
