Three problems related to body have been reported for the 1999 Chevrolet Malibu. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
While driving the car at 35 mph. , suddenly I was unable to steer it. It turns out that the sub frame of the car is cracked and needs totally replaced at approx. $1100. After extensive research, I understand that this is not a part of the car that should wear out and should not have cracked. (this could have resulted in a death or severe injury. I believe gm needs to make compensation for this repair. ).
While driving pulled sunvisor to block sun, and sunvisor fell into consumer's lap.
Car had been driven 1 hour earlier - noticed wisp of smoke in trunk and contacted roadside assistance. Upon checking mileage, noticed entire interior of car was filled with black smoke. Fire appeared to have begun in console and spread to passenger side seat. Fire had extinguished itself. Towing company sent a part-time fireman to tow car to dealer. Awaiting further investigation.
