Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: The brakes have continually failed every 3 months since 3000 miles. the car is not safe for my wife and children. the car should be recalled and repurchased by gm. gm told me ms karen roberts that they are aware of the problem, but its not a safety issue until someone gets hurt.. are they crazy? the malibu is an unsafe car. even my service advisor harry haigh said the car should be replaced. the malibu is an engineering nightmare. *ak (tiresize: p215/60/r1)
