Safety
The Malibu has airbags galore. She has antilock brakes, an electronic stability system and traction control. Nice! What’s better is she comes with one year of OnStar with turn-by-turn navigation; I like OnStar, but check to make sure that you have coverage where you live or where you drive the most.
The three lovely sets of Latch connectors must be mentioned again. I’m so happy about those. Did you know that you should be putting the littlest of your children in that center position? That’s the safest place in the car for those youngest babes, so thank you, Chevy, for putting anchors in that position.
Lastly, the Malibu earns 5 stars from NHTSA for front and rear passengers in front and side collisions. You like her now, too, don’t you?
