My 2004 Malibu is total opposite of my 2003

So far so good. The 2004 is driving great and I am only paying about $40 more per month for it than I was paying for the 2003. I really love the car and hope that it continues to perform as well as it is now.

I purchased a 2003 Malibu with 15 miles on it in July of this year. Within a month it died on me. After two days in the shop and driving it for another two weeks it died again. It was in the shop for two weeks. Two weeks after that it died again. It was in the shop for three days and it died on them with all the computer equipment attached and everything read normal. Two weeks after that it died again and at that point I told them to tow the car to the dealership and refund my money. They had the car for a month while I drove a loaner. They were dragging their feet so I contacted lemonlaw.com and within three hours the dealership called me with a deal. The dealership gave me the full purchase price of the car toward a 2004 Malibu. I really loved the way the 2003 drove when it was working. I am keeping a very close eye on this car. Anything that looks or feels wrong is going to be immediately going to be reported to the dealer. I am hoping that I can get my confidence back for Chevy's. I have been driving them for over twenty years without any major problems. So that is my story and I am sticking to it. Happy with my new car but still very skeptical until I put 10 or 20K on the odometer.
