What are the common problems with the 2005 Malibu Maxx?

If you’re looking for reliable repair shops, I’ve had good experiences at Joe’s Auto in town; they handle Malibus well and are reasonably priced.

I’ve heard mixed reviews about Joe’s. Has anyone else tried AutoFix Garage? I’m considering them for some work.

Definitely check out AutoFix Garage! They recently replaced my brake pads, and I was impressed by their work.

It’s funny; my brakes started squeaking right after I switched repairs. Guess I should’ve stuck with Joe’s. Anyone else experience sudden issues after a repair?

That’s the nature of some repairs! You often find new quirks after fixing something else.

On a reflective note: I love my Maxx! Despite its quirks, it has served me well. Regular maintenance is key!

I feel the same way! What’s been your best tip for keeping it running smoothly?
