The 2003 Malibu was their top rated car for the class...I bought
one...biggest POS I ever owned. Dumped it after 9 months. So, I bought the
lowest rated model in the class (the Chrysler Sebring). Had it now almost 2
years and not a single warranty problem (or any problem) so far. Love the
car. So my advise is to take these award entities with a grain of salt and
a fair amount of skepticism.

Sounds a lot like my experience with Consumer Reports.

Unfortunate, but not totally unexpected.
