I have a 2007 Chevrolet malibu. It has the 4 cylinder engine and an automatic transmission. I bought a pop up camper that weight a little over 1100 lbs. Has anyone pulled with a car like this? Also does anyone know if the 4 and 6 cylinder engines in this car have the same transmission?
 
The car will pull the trailer but, thats alot of strain on your drive train as well as alot of work for your brakes. Your engine and trans will be working very hard to pull that camper so you will shorten the life considerably.
If you insist on pulling it, DO NOT let it shift into overdrive. All that weight will ruin your trans and torque converter quickly.
