For a 2014 Chevy Malibu, it's recommended to use an antifreeze that meets the specification of GM Dex-Cool, which is an orange-colored extended-life coolant. Ensure the antifreeze is a 50/50 mix of coolant and water for optimal performance. Always check the owner's manual or consult with a professional for specific recommendations and to avoid mixing different types of coolant.
