Used 2004 Chevrolet Malibu Maxx LS FWD for Sale near Providence, RI

Greatest car I have owned. Over 100.000 kilometers and no problems. I am 77 and have driven Fords, Lincolns, Pontiacs, oldsmobile. I would recommend this car to anyone that wants comfort with versatility. I do undercoat it every year to protect against salt and rust deterioration.

For anyone looking for a great family sedan with a little performance and decent comfort. With a hatchback for some pretty decent space as well as a longer wheelbase allows for back seat passengers to have ample room. GM made the good advice of mating this heavier car with the 3.4 V6 engine. This gives the car some nice pep on the freeway.. it's not gonna blow anybody's mind.. but when the V6 kicks in at 70, you don't worry about running out of power. However gas mileage takes a hit. We where told it would get around 30mpg... observed.. 26.7 when my wife drives it. 28.1 when i drive it. It is reliable (other than plastic bits that keep falling off and an electrical gremlin that keeps taking out our power accessories). The radio is decent, the seats i find comfy, the remote start is great! and more pockets that we know what to deal with.

Electric-assist power steering is crap and has not feel. I've already replaced it once. I love the design of this car, I just wish that it would work right.

I bought the car used and have put about 15,000 miles on it in the year I've had it. I had the brakes replaced the first month (the dealer paid for labor and parts) and currently I am in the process of replacing the fuel pump. No major problems. The gas tank is not very stable in it and has been since I bought it, so eventually I am sure that I will have to replace that. I'm very happy about the space in it. I paid Kelly blue book price in Michigan for it, but feel like I could get a better deal out of state.

What an upgrade over my Jeep!
