My 2001 Malibu had the "CRUISE" indicator light up in the instrument cluster when cruise control was engaged.
This does not happen with my 2003 Malibu. I took it to the dealer and was told that for 2003 it doesn't light up.
Is that the truth, or a load of crap? Seems odd to disable something like that, but with GM who knows.
The NHTSA site shows the following TSB, but I couldn't find the info on Alldata.
