| 2000 | EXTERIOR LIGHTING:BRAKE LIGHTS | THE RIGHT REAR TAIL LAMP IS FULL OF WATER, THE LEFT REAR BRAKE LAMP CIRCUIT BOARD SHORTED, DEALER REPLACED THE BOARD AND BULBS, DEALER ALSO FOUND THE THIRD BRAKE LAMP WAS FALLING BACK INTO THE PACKAGE TRAY. NLM |
| 2013 | AIR BAGS | FIRST NOTICED A CREASE IN REAR SEAT SIDE AIRBAGS CAUSED BY REAR DOOR PANEL RESTING ON IT RATHER THAN HAVING CLEARANCE. AFTER THE DOOR HAD BEEN OPENED/CLOSED THROUGH USE OVER A PERIOD OF ONLY 6 MONTHS, IT IS BEGINNING TO RUB A POSSIBLE HOLE IN THE MATERIAL CONTAINING THE AIRBAG. DEALERSHIP SERVICE MANAGER HAD NEVER SEEN BEFORE AND SUBSEQUENT CHECK OF SOME NEW MALIBUS STILL ON THE LOT REVEALED THAT ALMOST ALL HAD SOME SORT OF INDICATION OF THE SAME PROBLEM. DON'T KNOW WHAT WILL HAPPEN IF MATERIAL ON AIRBAG IS BREACHED WITH A HOLE. *TR |
