HAS ISSUES THAT ARE RECALLED ON OTHER 2000 MALIBU'S. BLINKERS STOPPED WORKING ON & OFF ONE DAY. THEN STOPPED TOTALLY NEXT DAY, CHANGED FUSE NOTHING HELPED. DOESN'T EVEN SHOW ON INSTRUMENT PANEL. CAR REFUSES TO START AT TIMES, TAKES ANY WHERE FROM 3-5 TRIES TO START. ALSO HAD RECALL DONE ON IGNITION, DIDN'T HELP, I REPLACED WHOLE IGNITION SWITCH AFTER THE DEALER 'FIXED' IT. BATTERY KEPTED ON DRAINING BEFORE THAT.
