I think we can look at every single manufacturer and find that all of them did not have total shining moments. What brand do you drive? Let's try that theory and see if we can find any manufacturing flaws ever produced by your favorite brand. I have owned many cars, both foreign and domestic. There's models in each I would not touch. Go through the reviews on here for an answer past and present.

Vehicles such as the Malibu on topic are what GM knew how build. The Vega was rushed into production to compete with the rinky-dink imports of the time.

Hi,

Original poster here.

Yes, the was the same GM who built the Vega.

Thankfully, the "Vega Philosophy" had not made it to the rest of the product line. Yet.

Stay tuned for the report on the replacement vehicle for this car ;)
