Used 2016 Chevrolet Malibu Limited Consumer Reviews

Great car/value$

Had for 2 yrs now,bought with 112,000km. Almost 207,000 now,going strong every day. My poor man's Cadillac and I love it! 2.5L comes alive when you need it, and gives superb mileage with well-designed 6-speed automatic. Only one complaint is Auto Stop NOT able to turn off! Pop Hood before starting... then close hood with car running still. Get in and drive like a normal car should be until you shut it off again and have to repeat process.

Another hit for Chevy

Bought Malibu used with 35000 on the odometer put on in just the first year. Car runs like brand new. Backseat is a little snug but only gets used when young grandkids are around. Car is very comfortable and quiet and handles great at all speeds. Very stylish exterior and interior fit and finish is above par. Took awhile to get used to the touch screen but all is good now. Start/stop works great and is not even noticed. Overall a great car that we are very happy to own.

My 2016 LTZ 4 years in. 170,000.

$0 repairs Only dislike is stereo and Bluetooth reboots on auto start. I love my Malibu. It has been very reliable.

There are way better cars!!

This is the most unimpressive and uncomfortable vehicle I’ve ever had the unfortunate privilege to own. It’s cheaply made and just all around a waste of money. I’d recommend staying away from any of these models of Malibu’s.

If your a Chevy fan Malibu LTZ is #1

I have this car 3 years ago at Car Max it had 39,000 miles it’s the best car I have ever owned I love the fact on cold mornings I can warm the car up with the auto turn on!! It’s been a great even at 61,000 now just keep the synthetic oil changed and follow the manual guidelines for maintenance.

Great car but the tranny is a ticking time bomb

I’ve had my car since 2017, but my driver experience isn’t a typical one to rely since I used my Chevy for Uber. I’ve put over 230,000 miles on it, so needless to say, I would naturally run into more issues than the typical driver of this car. A lot of the pro’s and con’s are outlined pretty well by other reviews, but the biggest con I want to emphasize is the transmission. For some reason, Chevy models of different years are notorious for having issues with the transmission. It’ll start off with the car hitting high RPMs with the gear shifts being sluggish and abrupt. When this occurs, you have a single window to get the tranny fixed for less than $1k before it gets worse. Once it gets worse, the whole tranny would then need to be replaced which costed me around $3500. This happened twice, and only on the second occurrence did I have the experience to know to get it looked at immediately.

Slow Mali

Acceleration is very slow.
