What is the drivetrain warranty on 2011 Chevrolet Malibu?

The drivetrain warranty on a 2011 Chevrolet Malibu depends on the specific coverage purchased at the time of sale. There wasn't a single, universal drivetrain-specific warranty offered by Chevrolet. Instead, the Malibu came with a standard powertrain warranty (which generally covers the engine, transmission, and other drivetrain components) as part of its overall new car warranty. This was typically a 5-year/100,000-mile limited warranty (whichever came first).

However, this is just the *standard* warranty. Extended warranties or additional coverage purchased from the dealer or a third party would alter this duration and coverage significantly. To find the precise details of the drivetrain coverage on a *specific* 2011 Chevrolet Malibu, you'd need to consult:

* The original purchase paperwork: This would detail the warranty purchased.

* The owner's manual: This should list the original warranty terms, though it may not explicitly single out "drivetrain" as a separate item.

* A Chevrolet dealership: Providing the VIN will allow them to access the vehicle's history and warranty information.

Keep in mind that any warranty likely expired years ago for a 2011 vehicle.
