Next to it is a square with three wavy vertical lines with arrow points at the top of the lines. What does this indicate?

Hello,
See attached, I have included the cluster diagrams for both the base and the upper trim level.
Take a look at it and let me know which warning light you are seeing.
You can also upload a picture. It can help us determine.
No. None of the symbols on the two images are the same as the one I'm referring to on my car. I have since read that the symbol could be the indicator light for the rear window defogger. Could that be it?

Is your Malibu the new body style or the Classic?
I was unable to find that specific error on the catalog.

Don't know. I have taken a picture of the symbol in question. How do I upload it to you?
