NHTSA Complaint #10213009 — 2005 CHEVROLET MALIBU MAXX

I PURCHASED MY 2005 CHEVY MALIBU MAXX LS AS A "PROGRAM CAR" THINKING IT WAS THE NEXT BEST THING TO A NEW CAR. I GUESS I WAS WRONG. SINCE PURCHASING THE VEHICLE IN APRIL 2006 I HAVE HAD CONSISTENT TROUBLE WITH MY FRONT END. I HAVE HAD TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALER FOR WARRANTY REPAIRS FOUR TIMES! NOW AT 50,500 MILES MY FRONT END IS ACTING UP AGAIN. THE LAST TIME I HAD MY REPAIRS DONE I WAS OUT OF WARRANTY AND CALLED GMAC AND ASKED FOR A REPURCHASE. GMAC CONTACTED MY DEALER AND RETURNED A CALL TO ME STATING THAT I SHOULD TRY ANOTHER DEALER THEY COULD NOT GET ANYWHERE WITH MY CURRENT DEALER. I WAS NOT SURPRISED AFTER BEING TOLD BY THE SHOP LEADER THAT"HIS WIFE'S CAR DID THE SAME THING AND THAT THE BEST THING I COULD DO IS DRIVE IT TILL ITS PAID FOR! I HAVE HAD IT WITH THIS CAR AND THE SERVICE MY LOCAL DEALER . I LOVE GMAC AND I WISH THEY WOULD BE MORE AGGRESSIVE AT DEALING WITH BAD DEALERSHIPS. MY DEALERSHIP MADE ME FEEL STUPID AND LIKE I WAS BOTHERING THEM. I AM STILL PAYING ON MY MALIBU BUT AM LOOKING TO TRADE BUT I AM SO SCARED THAT I WILL JUST GAIN A WHOLE NEW PROBLEM FROM ANOTHER VEHICLE...WHAT DO I DO? *TR
