2009 Chevy impala Airbag light comes on and off when it wants to bought it from a use dealer ship in 2022

"Air Bag Malfunction light is on. There is a NHTSA Campaign Number: 16V507000 (Air Bags, Electrical System) which I am associating with the failure and it tends to happen at the 80,000 mile mark which this car is almost at. Why isn't this VIN included in the recall? It's a 2009 Chevy Impala. Shouldn't this recall capture all of the 2009 Chevy Impalas?

We bought a vehicle as is from a dealer and when we drove away the air bag comes on and off

The service airbag light comes on in the dash. Whether someone is in the passenger seat or not, the light came one and it stays on most of the time. I looked up recalls for my vin, and it wasn’t included in the previous recall. (recall number 36110 passenger presence sensor and instrument cluster) But it has the same issue as all of the other 2009 Chevrolet Impalas recalled for the same exact thing. I purchased this car in December 2020 from the state of Michigan so I am the second owner. My vin should be covered under the recall. I need it fixed and it’s no okay that as dealership won’t cover my vehicle and it has the same issue. Why didn’t Chevrolet just recall ALL of this year, regardless of vin? GM saving money at the cost of mine and my families safety is not okay!

THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. ON THE HWY GOING 60MPH, ALL OF A SUDDEN MY ENGINE POWER IS REDUCED AND AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON. THE NEXT DAY THE AIR BAG LIGHT AND ENGINE LIGHT ARE BOTH ON. WENT TO MY MECHANIC FOR AN INSPECTION (WHICH I FAILED DUE TO THE AIRBAG) AND HE INFORMED ME TO CONTACT THE DEALERSHIP FOR RECALL. I DID, ONLY TO FIND OUT THE RECALL IS CLOSED AND I CAN'T GET THIS FIXED UNLESS I COME UP WITH A LOT OF MONEY. I EXPLAINED I NEVER GOT ANYTHING FROM THE MANUFACTURER ABOUT THE RECALL.

I TOOK MY CAR IN FOR THE LAST RECALL FOR THE PASSANGER AIR BAG SENSOR IT DID NOT TURN THE LIGHT OFF AND THE DEALER SAYS THER IS A DIFFERANT ISSUE WITH IT AND THAT'S WHY THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON. I COULDN'T TELL YOU WHAT THEY DID AS FAR AS TAPING THE WIRES OR REPLACING THE SENSOR. BUT I FEEL LIKE THEY DID NOTHING NOW THEY TELL ME THE PART IS 433.00 AND LABOR AND PROGRAMING IS ALMOST 1000.00.

MY IMPALA HAS HAD AIRBAG ISSUES SINCE 2016 DISPLAY PANEL CONSTANTLY SAYS TO SERVICE AIR BAG ESPECIALLY WHEN SOMEONE SITS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. I RECEIVED THE AIRBAG RECALL NOTICE BACK IN 2016 AND TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER. THEY REWRAPPED THE WIRES UNDER PASSENGER SEAT AND SYSTEM WAS OK FOR AROUND 6 MONTHS THEN IT STARTED DOING THE SAME THINGS WITH SAME ISSUE. STATING TO SERVICE AIR BAG AND WHEN IN PASSENGER SEAT IS THE ONLY TIME IT SAYS THIS AND IT ALSO DISPLAYS THAT THE PASSENGER AIR BAG IS OFF.

THE CAR STARTED TO STATE THE AIRBAG NEEDED SERVICING. I LOOKED UP THE ISSUE ONLINE AND SAW THE RECALL FOR MY MAKE AND MODEL. RECALL NUMBER 273230. THE NHTSA NUMBER IS 16V507000. SEPARATELY, THE STEERING WHEEL IS INCREDIBLY STIFF WHEN STARTING THE CAR, AND WHILE MAKING TURNS. NEED BOTH ARMS TO FORCE THE CAR TO TURN. THERE IS NO ISSUE WITH POWER STEERING FLUID.

MY AIRBAG LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON AND OFF, I OWNED ANOTHER 2009 CHEVY IMPALA THAT I HAD A RECALL ON BUT WHEN I TYPE IN THIS ONE IT DOESN'T COME UP. BUT THE AIRBAG LIGHT DOES KEEP COMING ON AND OFF.

FOR OVER A YEAR NOW, AN AIRBAG RED LIGHT COMES ON SPORADICALLY ALONG WITH A BEEPING NOISE. I CAN'T AFFORD THE HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP REQUIRES TO CHECK IT OUT TO SEE IF IT IS THE DRIVERS SIDE OR PASSENGER AIR BAG. I JUST WANT TO KNOW IF IT IMPOSES ANY DANGER. THEY SAY IT MAY ME JUST A FAULTY SYSTEM AND THAT IT DOESN'T NECESSARILY MEAN THAT THE AIRBAG WOULDN'T DEPLOY IN AN EMERGENCY. BUT THEY HAVE TO TAKE THE WHOLE FRONT SIDE OUT TO CHECK. THE LABOR TIME IS QUITE PRICE. ALSO, WHEN USING MY REMOTE, THE DOOR LOCKS STAY LOCKED OFF AND ON. NO RHYME OF REASON. IT HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR OVER A YEAR; BUT YOUR FORM HERE MAKES ME PUT JUST ONE DATE DOWN IN ORDER TO PROCEED.

Mileage: 120,000

DOOR LOCKS WORK INTERMITTENTLY WITH REMOTE, ESPECIALLY OVER 75 DEGREES. USUALLY DRIVER DOOR LOCK BUT CAN BE ANY. ALL STILL WORK MANUALLY. THIS CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS BECAUSE HANDICAPPED PEOPLE ARE OFTEN IN THIS VEHICLE AND CAN'T GET OUT ON THEIR OWN. ALSO INTERMITTENTLY DEPENDENT ON HOW HOT IT IS THE SERVICE PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON BUT OFTEN DISAPPEARS. THIS STARTED SOON AFTER THE SO CALLED AIRBAG RECALL WAS DONE.

GENERAL MOTORS HAS DECIDED THAT A DEFECT, WHICH RELATES TO MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY, EXISTS IN CERTAIN 2009 ' 2010 CHEVROLET IMPALA VEHICLES. THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT FRAME IN THESE VEHICLES MAY RUB AGAINST AND DAMAGE THE WIRES OF THE PASSENGER PRESENCE SENSOR (PPS) MODULE, WHICH COULD CAUSE THE PPS SYSTEM TO FAIL TO RECOGNIZE THAT THE PASSENGER SEAT IS OCCUPIED AND IMPROPERLY SUPPRESS THE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG. IN ADDITION, THE CLUSTER GAUGES AND DRIVER INFORMATION CENTER (DIC) ALERTS MAY INTERMITTENTLY TURN OFF OR NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY. IN RARE CIRCUMSTANCES, THE DAMAGE TO THE PPS MODULE COULD CAUSE THE AIRBAG FUSE TO SHORT, RESULTING IN THE LOSS OF ALL AIRBAGS AND SEAT BELT PRETENSIONERS. GENERAL MOTORS HAS DECIDED THAT A DEFECT WHICH RELATES TO MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY EXISTS IN 2005-2009 MODEL YEAR (MY) BUICK LACROSSE, 2006-2011 MY BUICK LUCERNE, 2000-2005 MY CADILLAC DEVILLE, 2007-2011 MY CADILLAC DTS, 2006-2014 MY CHEVROLET IMPALA AND 2006-2007 MY CHEVROLET MONTE CARLO VEHICLES.

SAME FOR THE POWER DOOR LOCKS, DRIVER DOOR DOESN'T ALWAYS OPEN. SAME ISSUE AND SINCE THEY CAN'T REPLICATE IT, THEY SAY KEEP AN EYE ON IT. CONCERNED IF THE DOOR WON'T UNLOCK SOMETIMES. AIR PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM & STABILITY TRAK MONITORS ALSO SEEM TO HAVE ISSUES. THE SENSORS ON THE CAR CONSTANTLY GO OFF AND MY VEHICLE HAS LESS THAN 65,000 MILES ON A 9 YEAR OLD CAR. CONCERNED WHEN DRIVING IT IF IT'S JUST A SENSOR ISSUE OR A REAL PROBLEM THAT CAN CAUSE A SAFETY CONCERNED WHEN DRIVING AND CHEVROLET DOESN'T WANT TO DO ANYTHING CONCERNING THE ISSUE. I'VE ALREADY PAID 645.00 FOR THE ACTUATOR, 345.00 FOR THE TIRE MONITORING SYSTEM AND I KEEP GETTING TOLD KEEP AN EYE ON THE SERVICE AIRBAG ISSUE CAUSE THEY CAN'T REPLICATE IT.

FOR THE LAST YEAR OR SO I HAVE DEALT WITH SEVERAL ISSUES THAT STARTED HAPPENING ALL OF A SUDDEN AND ALL AT ONCE. FOR STARTERS, MY AIR BAG INDICATOR COME ON AND OFF WHEN I DRIVE AT ANY SPEED. AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC COULD NOT DIAGNOSE IT AND THE DEALERSHIP ATTEMPTED TO DIAGNOSE IT AND ALL HE SAID WAS I NEEDED TO REPLACE MY AIR BAGS WHICH WOULD HAVE COST ROUGHLY $3400.00. IN ADDITION TO THAT, MY ABS INDICATOR BEGAN GOING ON AND OFF AND HAS CAUSED MY CAR TO FEEL AS IF IT WAS ON A HYDROPLANE MODE. WHEN IT TURNS ON IT OCCASIONALLY MAKES MY CAR JERK ON THE ROAD. I WENT TO AN AUTO SUPPLY STORE FOR DIAGNOSIS AND WAS TOLD THERE WAS NO READING SO NOTHING WAS WRONG, DEALERSHIP SAID THE SAME. THE LIGHT SHUT OFF AND IT WAS LIKE DEJA VU ALL OVER AGAIN. ALSO, I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE DOOR ACTUATORS AT LEAST ONE TO TWO TIMES A YEAR BECAUSE THEY CONTINUE TO BREAK.

THE AIRBAG LIGHT ILLUMINATED. MORE RECENTLY, THE DASH BEGAN SMOKING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND OFFERED TO PAY A PORTION OF THE REPAIR. THE CONSUMER DECLINED DUE TO NOT BEING ABLE TO AFFORD THE REMAINING COST OF THE REPAIRS. UPDATED 10/10/2017*JS

AT AROUND 140,000 MILES I NOTICED MY SERVICE AIRBAG LIGHT COMING ON AND OFF. OVERTIME IT CONTINUED TURNING ON AND OFF STAYING ON MORE FREQUENT THAN BEING OFF. I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR A RECALL THAT AFFECTED THE AIRBAGS. THEY TOLD ME THEY JUST HAD TO WRAP SOME WIRES THAT GO UNDERNEATH THE SEAT AND THAT WAS IT. HOWEVER THIS DID NOT TURN MY AIRBAG LIGHT OFF AND I HAVE GOTTEN NO HELP FROM ANY DEALERSHIP OR ONLINE FORUMS. I BELIEVE CHEVY SHOULD RECALL THIS AS MANY OTHER INDIVIDUALS WITH IMPALAS ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE. AS TO THE SEAT PROBLEM. WHERE MY SEAT COMES TOGETHER AT THE LOW BACK, IT SHIFTS AND MOVES AROUND. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THEY COULD FIX IT AT $900. THEY SAID THEY WOULD HAVE TO FIND A NEW SEAT AND THEN PUT MY CUSHIONS AND UPHOLSTERY ON IT.

AUTONATION ALONG WITH GM COMMUNICATED WITH MY MECHANIC AND MYSELF AND TOLD ME THAT MY CAR REPAIRS WOULD BE COMPLETED AND PAID FOR BY GM AS PART OF RECALL WORK AND SUBSEQUENT DAMAGE FROM THE RECALL WORK NOT BEING PERFORMED BEFORE ADDITIONAL DAMAGE COULD OCCUR. WE WERE EVEN TOLD THAT OUR RENTAL CAR WOULD BE PAID FOR BUT ONCE THEY TOWED THE CAR FROM OUR MECHANIC TO THEIR SHOP, THEY TOLD US THAT WE WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THAT, ALTHOUGH DIDN'T COMMUNICATE THAT TO US UNTIL OVER A MONTH HAD GONE BY. SUBSEQUENTLY, AUTONATION TOWED MY CAR BACK TO MY MECHANIC BUT WITH EVEN MORE DAMAGE THAN THEY THEMSELVES STATED HAD BEEN THE SITUATION WITH MY CAR. THEIR OWN MECHANIC STATED BOTH VERBALLY AND IN WRITING (IN THE WORK ORDER) THAT THE RECALLED WIRES SHORTED CAUSING THE DAMAGE TO MY CAR. NO ONE WILL TELL US WHY THAT CHANGED ONCE OUR CAR WAS TOWED TO THEM AS WE WOULD NEVER HAVE TOWED IT TO THEM IF THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN THE CASE. ADDITIONALLY, NO ONE HAS TOLD US WHY OR WHO THE SOMEONE IS WHO DISAGREED WITH THEIR OWN MECHANIC (AND 3 ADDITIONAL MECHANICS SUBSEQUENTLY) AND MADE THE DETERMINATION THAT WE WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THE SHORT AND RELATED DAMAGES. I DO HAVE THE GM DOCUMENT SAFETY RECALL REPORT ASSOCIATED WITH THIS RECALL THAT OUTLINES WHAT HAPPENED TO OUR CALL WILL HAPPEN TO 1 PERCENT OF THE CARS MANUFACTURED DURING THE TIMEFRAME MY CAR WAS MANUFACTURED AS WELL AS THE WORK ORDER FROM AUTONATION CLEARLY STATING A SHORT CAUSED DAMAGE TO MY VEHICLE

THIS PROBLEM INCLUDES MORE ITEMS THAN YOUR FORM ALLOWS ME TO CHECK. IT STATED OUT ABOUT 7 MONTHS AGO WHEN YOU WOULD BE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND THE SERVICE STABLE TRACT AND SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT WOULD COME ON CAUSING THE ENGINE POWER TO BE REDUCED WHICH IS AN ANNOENCE BUT IS ALSO A SAFETY ISSUE IS YOU ARE PASSING SOMEONE ON A TWO LANE ROAD WHEN IT HAPPENS AND YOU CAN NOT COMPLETE THE PASS DUE TO REDUCED POWER. IF YOU PULLED OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND SHUT THE CAR OFF THE SERVICE LIGHTS WOULD GO AWAY AND MAY NOT COME ON AGAIN FOR WEEKS. THIS PROBLEM WENT AWAY AFTER A COUPLE OF MONTHS AND THEN THE CAR STARTED A NEW ONE WITH A NO CRANK, NO START PROBLEM WHICH WHEN THIS WOULD HAPPEN YOU WOULD GET UP TO THREE WARNING LIGHTS, (SERVICE TABLE TRAC, SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL, AND SERVICE AIR BAGS) WITH TIME THE NO CRANK, NO START PROBLEM KEPT COMING AND GOING AND THE ONLY LIGHT THAT CAME ON WHEN IT WOULDN'T CRANK OR START WAS THE SERVICE AIR BAG LIGHT. IF YOU KEPT TRYING TO START IT AFTER 3 TO 30 TIMES IT WOULD START AND RUN FINE AND MAY NOT ACT UP AGAIN FOR 1 DAY OR EVEN UP TO A WEEK. A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO I HAD MY WIFE SWITCH CARS WITH ME AS THIS WAS THE CAR SHE DROVE TO WORK DAILY AND I DIDN'T WANT HER TO GET STRANDED. I AM SO GLAD I DID THAT AS THE VERY FIRST DAY I DROVE IT TO WORK ON MY WAY HOME WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY THE CAR SHUT OFF FOR NO REASON AND THE SERVICE AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON, I LOST MY POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES AND AGAIN I COULD HAVE BEEN IN VERY BIG TROUBLE IF THIS WOULD HAVE HAPPENED WHEN I WAS TRYING TO PASS ANOTHER CAR AND I DON'T THINK THE AIR BAGS WILL DEPLOY WITH THE SERVICE AIR BAG LIGHT ON. I REPORTED THE TO CHEVROLET AND THEY TOLD ME TRYING TO FIX IT WOULD BE AT MY COST SINCE IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY.

BROUGHT BACK TO DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD US WIRES WERE DAMAGED AND WIRING CONNECTOR NEED TO BE REPLACED WHICH WAS NOT PART OF RECALL. PAID $329. WHEN I READ RECALL ONLINE, IT CLEARLY STATES THE WIRES SHOULD BE INSPECTED BEFORE APPLYING THE TAPE AND IF NOT WIRING SHOULD BE REPLACED FOR NO CHARGE. I FILED COMPLAINT WITH GM AND THEY CONTACTED DEALERSHIP WHO STILL SAYS WIRES ARE NOT PART OF RECALL. ADVISED WORD FOR WORD OF RECALL AND NO HAVE TO GO TO DEALERSHIP WITH PAPERWORK.

ABOUT A WEEK AGO, MY :SERVICE AIR BAG" LIGHT CAME ON WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY. I GOT HOME AND LOOKED AT THE LATEST RECALL NOTICE SENT VIA MAIL TO US AND SAW THE IGNITION RECALL COULD CAUSE A PROBLEM WITH THE AIRBAGS IF NOT REPAIRED SO I MADE AN APPOINTMENT WITH A LOCAL DEALER. ONCE THERE I WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS ANOTHER RECALL AND THEY WOULD FIX BOTH. I ASKED ABOUT THE LIGHT BUT WAS BLOWN OFF. THE CAR WAS REPAIRED AND I LEFT WITH THE LIGHT OFF. THE NEXT DAY THE LIGHT CAME ON BUT WHEN I SHUT OFF THE CAR IT WOULD GO AWAY. THIS HAS KEPT HAPPENING BUT SINCE YESTERDAY IT IS CONSTANT. I CALLED THE DEALER AND GM AND BOTH SAY THEY ISSUES ARE NOT RELATED. BUT THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE ON LINE WITH THE SAME ISSUE. THE SECOND RECALL WAS FOR A PASSENGER SEAT SENSOR THAT COULD CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE SEAT BELT PRETENSIONS AND LOSS OF AIR BAGS! GM IS VERY BLAISE ABOUT THEIR CUSTOMERS SAFETY. THIS IS ANOTHER ISSUE IN A LONG LIST OF PROBLEMS I HAVE HAD WITH THE IMPALA. TWO OUT OF FOUR DOOR LOCKS DO NOT WORK UNLESS YOU MANUALLY OPEN THEM, ONE OF MY SEAT WARMERS DOES NOT FUNCTION, ETC... THIS IS A POORLY MADE VEHICLE AND THE ISSUES ARE SAFETY IN NATURE.

OCTOBER 2015, WHILE DRIVING DISPLAY CAME UP WITH MESSAGE "SERVICE AIR BAG" WITH ICON ALSO SHOWING ON DISPLAY. CHECKING INTO THIS MESSAGE I FOUND THAT THIS IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM AND THAT I CANNOT DEPEND ON HAVING AIR BAG PROTECTION IF IN AN ACCIDENT. CHECKING VARIOUS SOURCES ONLINE, FOUND HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS AND THAT WHEN MANY SERIOUS ACCIDENTS OCCURED, NO AIR BAGS DEPLOYED . CALLED MY GM DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT PROBLEM COULD BE CAUSED BY SEVERAL DIFFERENT PROBLEMS AND COULD MEAN INSTALLING NEW AIR BAGS AT A COST OF $1200.00. WITH ALL THE CURRENT RECALLS FOR THE TAKADE AIR BAGS, WHY ARE THESE AIR BAG DEFECTS ON THE CHEVOLET IMPALA'S NOT BEING RECALLED. THEY PRESENT A REAL DANGER TO PASSENGERS IN THESE CARS. IN SOME OF THE COMPLAINTS ONLINE, EVEN AFTER THE CARS WERE SERVICED BY THE DEALERS, THE PROBLEMS REOCCURED. I AM AN 81 YEAR OLD FEMALE WITH OUT THE RESOURCES TO PAY SEVERAL HUNDRED DOLLARS TO, MAYBE, HAVE THE PROBLEM FIXED AND I AM SURE MANY OTHER OWNERS OF THE IMPALA'S ARE IN THE SAME CIRCUMSTANCE. I FEEL THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSURE AND SHOULD BE CONSIDERED AS SUCH.

I BELIEVE THAT GM SHOULD STAND BEHIND THESE SAFETY MECHANISMS REGARDLESS OF ANY WARRANTY. I WAS TOLD THAT IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH THE AIRBAGS WOULD NOT DEPLOY IF THE WARNING LIGHT IS ON, YET I ABSOLUTELY REFUSE TO PAY FOR A PROBLEM WITH A SAFETY DEVICE INTENDED TO LAST THE LIFETIME OF THE CAR.

IT WOULD SEEM TO ME THAT IF THIS SITUATION IS TRUE (SAFETY RESTRAINT SYSTEM CAN BE RENDERED INEFFECTIVE WITHOUT NOTICE) THAT POSSIBLY THE SITUATION SHOULD BE LOOKED INTO.

WE PURCHASED A USED 2009 CHEVY IMPALA AROUND FEBRUARY 2014. WITHIN A WEEK OF DRIVING IT WE STARTED HEARING A LOUD CLICKING NOISE ANYTIME WE UNLOCKED THE DOORS OR CUT ON THE HEAT BUT EVERYTHING SEEMED TO BE WORKING FINE SO WE JUST DEALT WITH NOISE. I DID LOOK ONLINE ONLY TO FIND TONS OF PEOPLE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM AND I ALSO HAD MULTIPLE FRIENDS WHO SAID NEARLY EVERY IMPALA LIKE MINE THEY HAD BEEN IN MADE THAT SAME NOISE, WOW! SERIOUSLY? BUT ME BEING THE CHEVY LOVER, I JUST SAW IT AS A MINOR ISSUE MAYBE MISSED IN PRODUCTION BUT NOT REALLY A SAFETY HAZARD. THEN A COUPLE OF MONTHS LATER THAT SEEMS TO HAVE WENT AWAY BUT NOW IT TAKES ABOUT 2 MINUTES TO GET THE AC TO SWITCH FROM DEFROST TO BLOWING OUT OF THE DASH VENTS. YOU CAN STILL HEAR IT ON, BUT IT DOESN'T ACTUALLY START BLOWING FOR ABOUT 2 MINUTES. STILL, NOT A BIG DEAL. THEN I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 15MPH(NEAR A SCHOOL) WHEN A LOW OIL PRESSURE POWER OFF ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND WENT OFF QUICKLY, I PULLED OVER AND CUT THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON, NO MORE ISSUES. A FEW DAYS LATER MY SERVICE AIR BAG LIGHT STARTED COMING ON RANDOMLY, HMM, SO IF THAT LIGHT IS ON WILL MY AIR BAGS DEPLOY IF NEEDED? NOT SURE... THEN I GET ALARMS THAT SOMEONE IN THE PASSENGER SEAT WAS NOT BUCKLED IN, BUT THERE WAS NO ONE IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. THEN MY CAR STARTS CUTTING OFF RANDOMLY WHILE I'M DRIVING. THIS MORNING I BACKED OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY AND IT JUST CUT OFF LEAVING ME IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET FOR A FEW MINUTES WITH NO WAY FOR OTHER CARS TO GET AROUND ME.... IT WOULD HAVE BEEN TERRIBLE IF I WAS PULLING OUT AND ANOTHER CAR SPED AROUND THE CORNER. THEN THERE IS A RECALL NOTICE SENT TO ME STATING I SHOULD REMOVE EVERYTHING FROM MY KEY DUE TO IGNITION FAILURE RECALL.

I PLACED MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE WHICH WAS HARD AND UNRESPONSIVE. THE STEERING WAS HARD AND UNRESPONSIVE AS WELL. I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 3-5 MPH AT THE TIME. WHEN I PLACED MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE IT WAS UNRESPONSIVE AND IT TOOK ME INTO THE INTERSECTION WHERE I WAS HIT BY ANOTHER VEHICLE ON THE DRIVERS SIDE FRONT. MY AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY. THE TOTAL DAMAGE FOR MY VEHICLE WAS $ 5,615.93. WE WERE CONFUSED AND DID NOT UNDERSTAND WHY THE BRAKES AND THE STEERING DID NOT FUNCTION AND WHY WITH THIS VIOLENT OF A CRASH THAT THE AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY. AFTER READING THE RECALL NOTICE EXPLAINING THE IGNITION RECALL IT MADE SENSE THAT WHY THE FAILURE OCCURRED.

THE MOST RECENT IS THE VEHICLE SHUTTING OFF WHILE DRIVING IT ON HIGHWAYS. IT'S IS SAYING SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT MAD THAN WILL SAY SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL,THAN IT WILL SHUTOFF I BEEN GOING 70 DOWN AN INTERSTATE AND IT SHUTOFF MAD ABOUT KILL US. WE HAD THE VEHICLE CHECKED AND THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL SENSOR OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT IS THE PROBLEM BY WHAT TECHNICIAN SAY. I AM JUST NOW STARTING TO RESEARCH THE ISSUES WE HAVE AND FOUND NUMEROUS RECALLS ON THIS VEHICLE IN WHICH WE HAVE THE PROBLEMS LISTED ABOVE AND MORE. MAINLY THE AIRBAG STEERING CONTROL ARM AND VEHICLE JUST SHUTTING OFF. I GUESS THE BEST WAY TO SUM IT UP IS THEY SOLD US A LEMON PERHAPS BUT AFTER LOOKING AT THE RECALL LIST OUR VEHICLE MEETS THE REQUIREMENTS FOR SURE. TOO MANY PROBLEMS FOR A NEW VEHICLE. JUST LOOKING TO TAKE CARE OF THE PROBLEM BEFORE THE CAR INJURES US OR SOMEONE ELSE ON THE HIGHWAYS. HOPE THIS DOESN'T TAKE LONG TO GET RESOLVED BECAUSE DEATHS COULD OCCUR.

WE PURCHASED A 2009 CHEVY IMPALA IN APRIL . MY WIFE HAS A TAIL BONE MEDICAL ISSUE THAT NECESSITATES THAT SHE SIT ON A SPECIAL PILLOW WHILE RIDING IN A VEHICLE. THE SEAT DISPLACES HER WEIGHT EVENLY ACROSS THE SEAT. THE PROBLEM IS THAT THE AIR BAG SENSOR ON THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT DOESN'T RECOGNIZE HER WEIGHT SITTING ON THE SEAT, SO THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG DOESN'T SHOW IT IS OPERATIVE. WE RETURNED TO THE DEALER WHO TOLD US TO SET A MAGAZINE UNDERNEATH HER TO MAKE THE SENSOR WORK. IT DOES ACTIVATE THE PASSENGER AIR BAG "ON" BUTTON SOMETIMES, HOWEVER, THE MAJORITY OF THE TIME IT WILL NOT ACTIVATE AND MY WIFE IS NOT PROTECTED. I CALLED GENERAL MOTORS AND THEY DIDN'T HAVE ANY SOLUTION TO THIS SAFETY ISSUE, EXCEPT TO TELL ME THAT MY WIFE SHOULD RIDE IN THE BACK SEAT! THE DEALERSHIP HAS NO FURTHER ANSWERS FOR US.
