Up for sale is a 1998 Chevrolet Malibu.
This car has the 3.1 6 cylinder motor with automatic transmission. It has 122650 miles. It has AC,cruise,tilt wheel,power windows,power door locks,power trunk. All of the power stuff works as it should. The inside of the car is in good shape with some stains on the carpet and the headliner in the very back is starting to sag a little, everything else is in good condition.
The outside of the car has a few places - a little rust below the gas lid,a scratch on the drivers side fender and some on the front. It has good tires and was just inspected so it is ready to go.
Now the bad.....the motor was making a noise and a mechanic we know looked at it and said it was a lifter that was sticking. He said to change oil and put in some Lucas oil treatment, well we did that and it helped alot BUT you can still hear the noise sometimes, it uses a little bit of antifreeze but normally does not use any oil. The car has not been driven much, we bought it in 07 with 101k on it and in almost 7 years later we have only put 20k on it. The ABS light comes on sometimes but I have not had it checked and the low antifreeze light sometimes comes on but I think it is going bad because 95% of the time it does not need any antifreeze.
This has been a great car and other than the lifter we have had no problems with it. We are only selling because my mom is 82 and she is going to quit driving.

We will consider any reasonable offer...please know that the motor does sometimes make a noise so we offer no guarantees as far as the motor goes. You are more than welcome to stop by and check it out from top to bottom and take it for a test drive.

Feel free to ask any questions.

Ford, Toyota clean up in Best Car For The Money Awards

Fri, 22 Feb 2013

The U.S. News Best Cars for the Money Awards picks winners by looking at the average transaction price, five-year total cost of ownership, the regard a car has from the automotive press, reliability figures from J.D. Power and Associates and safety data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The result, according to the magazine, is "the best combination of critical acclaim and long-term value."
Ford nabbed six of the 21 categories that received awards this year, the Focus, Fusion, Fusion Hybrid, Taurus, Escape and Edge getting trophies. Toyota and its Lexus and Scion sub-brands took another five, the Tacoma and Tundra owning the two categories given to pickup trucks. The other ten awards were split between Honda with three, Buick with two, and one each for Subaru, BMW, Hyundai, Chevrolet and Mazda.

GM recalls 740,000 vehicles over daytime running light issue

Wed, Dec 14 2022

General Motors is recalling over 740,000 vehicles due to a daytime running light issue that causes all of the affected cars to run afoul of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards. Vehicles affected by this recall are spread across many of GM’s brands. Models include the 2020-2023 Cadillac CT4 and CT5, 2021-2023 Buick Envision, 2022-2023 Cadillac Escalade and Escalade ESV, 2022-2023 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, Suburban, Tahoe and 2022-2023 GMC Sierra 1500, Yukon, and Yukon XL. GM says that the daytime running lights may remain on in these cars when the headlights are activated. This is a problem, because FMVSS rules require that the daytime running lights deactivate once the headlights turn on. If the DRLs remain on, GM says that could result in additional glare, thereby increasing the risk of an accident. The cause of this failure to deactivate the DRLs comes from body control module software that Â“under a combination of certain pre-conditions, could fail to deactivate the DRLs,Â” according to GM. Other GM vehicles were tested, but due to a difference in software or hardware, they remain unaffected. If this is reminding you of another recent GM recall, youÂ’d be right, as GM recalled another 340,000 vehicles for the same issue last month. After that original issue was found within GM, the company began looking into its other cars to determine if the population was larger than originally thought. GM found the additional vehicles included in todayÂ’s recall have the problem. The fix will either be via an over-the-air update or it will require you to bring the vehicle into a dealer for a software update, depending on which vehicle you have. Owner notification letters letting folks know what is necessary are currently scheduled to go out on January 23, 2023. Related video: Cadillac Escalade Infotainment Review

MotorWeek's 80's GM muscle coupe roundup includes Regal GN and Monte Carlo SS

Thu, Jan 29 2015

Even with just four brands in the family, General Motors still represents a performance powerhouse. Between the Chevrolet Corvette Z06, Camaro Z/28, Cadillac CTS-V and ATS-V, The General can still deliver plenty of thrills. The 1980s, though, saw the brand go even crazier with performance. While the Camaro and Corvette were still around back in the day, GM had a number of other interesting performance offerings. The Bowtie was complemented by the long-deceased Monte Carlo SS, while the now-defunct Pontiac and Oldsmobile offered the Grand Prix and thumping 442, respectively. And Buick, which isn't short on performance with its Regal GS and Verano Turbo, offered a much more serious vehicle, in the form of the Grand National (not to mention the Darth Vader-spec GNX). MotorWeek, in its hugely entertaining retro flashbacks, looks back on these three long-lost GM performance icons, and it's just as good as you might expect.
