2014 CHEVROLET IMPALA Electrical System Problems

I have a 2014 Impala limited I started having problems within 6 months after I bought the vehicle from Bergstrom Chevrolet in Wisconsin it was involving the ABS anti-lock stability track and traction control and the braking and steering we're all feeling and locking up while I was driving it presented and problems and endangering my life and the life of any passengers in the vehicle the brakes will lock up and there was no warning before I locked up no lights came on and it would pull to the left or pull to the right depending on which ABS was locking up and it was fixed one time at the dealership then it was fixed again at the dealership later maybe about another 3 to 6 months after and went up for the same thing again and the parts were replaced now I again have had nothing but problems with the braking system. Also the valve that controls the pressure in the fuel tank malfunctioned which caused the car to run irrraticaly it would start hard,stop running at all stops rough ideling and unable to pump gas into the car without the gas pump stopping continuously making the time that it would take to fill the gas tank 3 to 4 times longer than it did that was fixed and it is malfunctioning again. I'm on my fourth time of having my car anti-lock brake system failing on my car multiple systems including the electrical system failing. The dash lights would go off on. The exterior lights going off and on. The car has been off of the streets and unable to be driven many times. I have taken my car in to the Dealership from where I purchased it from. By the third time my car warranty had expired. Then everything was still not repaired all the systems were not ever working correctly. And now the repairs were needed to be paid in full by myself. The cost to me had just begun when it should have been resolved. In excess of $6,000 was what it would cost me the third time I had the Impala in for everything and now it's gone out again and I'm having to get this repaired.

I previously owned a 2011 Buick Regal and now have a 2014 Chevy Impala. Both vehicles have had a Stabilitrack warning come up. Both vehicles experienced the same issue. The car seemed to jerk, lag in speed, cannot accelerate over 40mph. The Regal was diagnosed with an electrical/wiring issue. The Impala was diagnosed with a failed Transmission Control Module. We now have a 2016 Impala and the same issue and warning lights have appeared. That’s 3 vehicles we’ve owned from GMC with the exact same issue. This can’t be a coincidence and should be looked into. There are hundreds, if not thousands, of more consumers on forums experiencing the exact same issue. This should be recalled! Imagine the possibilities of danger this can cause when on the interstate and can’t accelerate over 40mph.

Very loud abnormal ticking sound coming from the vehicle, failed actuators. Resulting in hvac loss. Arecall issued in 2014 for stabilitrak /abs for bad grounds on 2014 Chevy Impalas. HOWEVER 2.5 and 3.6 L engines were not included, BUT NEED TO BE!!! the car will drive rough and eventually just cut off in the middle of traffic highway or residential. This is what it did on me, putting me in a very dangerous position with my 5 year old in the car. This issue is effecting thousands of the same vehicles and GM's failure to address this issue is leaving the owners of the affected vehicles driving unsafe vehicles. GM / Chevy needs to issue a recall on ALLL the 2014 Impalas. (which they will not confirm or deny). While I was driving 60mph on an interstate my car notification screen displayed "service stabilitrak"/ "engine power reduced"... then my car acceleration seemed to have died and car slowed all the way down to around 20 mph with the gas pedal diwn to the floor... a big semi truck was behind me and had to break and swerve around me while blowing his horn...I was nearly killed.

I received an alert to service the sideview sensors. Also, the sideview alert keeps flashing in the side mirrors even when there's no vehicle present.

Service side detection system came up on the display while driving on the freeway at 65MPH.

Side detection system failure. I have had 3 harness replacements on driver side. 2 harness replacements on passenger side, and a module replacement just 2 years ago. This failure causes my instrumentation to shut off, turn signals not work, and shuts off cruise control when in use. I have read outher more extreme cases like engine compartment fires or car shutting off while driving. I believe all these should be considered safety issues. I have owned this vehicle since new.

My steering wheel tripping , my brake light , my parking gear is triggered , stabilizing system and air bag

Mileage: 238,000

My back window exploded. The defrost system blew up while driving it's Brown burned marks in my window where the defrost runs

The brakes continue to malfunction I am unsure if a previous recall was fixed properly or not the Chasis electrical system has been fixed with electrical tape only the transmission and stability track and anti lock brake system error light with go off from time to time when it does and the more it’s driven the worse the issues get these are all recalls and the problems still persist are we confident that the recalls have been corrected

The side detection module has just failed out for the second time in under 2 years, 20k miles on my 2014 Impala LTZ. The first time it failed (less than two years ago), the side detection indicator on the mirrors started to go off randomly, and then eventually, I was unable to reliably lock/unlock my car. Eventually, it wouldn't even start/shut off (Push to start), and the entire dash was off even when running. It messed with seemingly the entire car's electrical system, and made it unsafe to drive (imagine if I would've been on the highway and the car shut down, plus I didn't have any gauges at all). As stated, this system (and side detection module specifically), has corroded and gone out again, despite this module supposedly being better sealed. I had a GM dealership replace the entire system with their kit, which was out of their specialty 80k mile warranty for this system, as they realize it is flawed but refuses to recall it. This kit was approximately $1000 installed, and I am again looking at the same price for a flawed system that GM is totally aware of and one that has safety implications and makes the vehicle undrivable.

My blind spot detectors went out, now as a result most of the electrical stuff no longer works. The car powers on and drains the battery randomly and the speedometer doesn’t work. Every light comes on from front camera, abs, and even power steering. I didn’t feel safe taking my kids to school and now I don’t feel I should pay $1,300 out of pocket.

Every year the side sensor goes bad.. This causes vehicle to loose important factors while driving. Headlight go off and on. Speed goes to 0, all codes flashing, gas and ram gone. Car also locks and unlocks randomly along with no heat or air.. This has happened twice even after fuse is pulled while waiting on yet another $1000 repair. This is so very unsafe. Car needs to be removed from roads or side sensor part coverd.

Started the car radio was black a/c compartment wasn’t lit then power steering fluid drive with care message appears

Back windshield exploded/shattered d/t short in defroster. This is the THIRD time this has happened in 5 years, first 2 times were in 2019.

Messages for “service side detection system” and “service rear vision system” appear web vehicle is turned on. Side detection system as well as backup camera are both non functional. GM knows about this issue and had a recall/ warranty repair program. however I was never notified to bring my vehicle in to have this repair done, and now I believe it is past the date that was set to have repairs covered. Will be contacting GM to have these things potentially fixed.

Module kit needs replaced due to water getting in it... had been replaced less than 5 years ago.

My vehicle is exhibiting the exact systems outlined in NHTSA bulletin PI0924B: Some customers may comment on unwanted opening of the trunk without pressing any of the release buttons while the vehicle is parked. Although the trunk is unlatched while parked, the owner may not observe the trunk open until they begin to drive the vehicle. This may also be accompanied with a “Trunk Open” message in the DIC. This condition may be caused by the trunk release button on the remote transmitter being pressed inadvertently while the transmitter is in their pocket or purse.

While driving the car electrical system will lose all power and reset. This happens often.

On July 11th 2023 I finalized the purchase of a black 2014 Chevy Impala LT at Premiere Auto Solutions LLC. The beginning of the week of July 22nd I started hearing loud noises coming from back tire area. On approximately July 24th, the engine light came on for small Evaporation leak code. Returned back to Premiere Auto and spoke with worker\dealer about situation with the car. Was told by this person after a test drive with him that the back tire noises are normal due to the braking system, and he cleared the engine code from dash panel. Within the next week, back tire noise got worse and engine light came back on along with message to service front camera\side detection system. Car diagnosed by two mechanics for replacement of back rotors\brakes and Evaporation purge valve. Attempted to contact Premiere Auto to no avail. On August 4th the vehicle suffered an electrical failure with total loss of power while driving. On August 7th the car was towed to Bob Johnson Chevrolet at 1271 W. Ridge Rd. Rochester, NY, 14615. The car is still there diagnosed with a shorted wire to the front camera module which renders the car inoperable, and is not covered by the extended warranty.

Power steering stability trak doors locking making clicking sound all this shows up on dash and the car feels like it is accelerating and then jerks slows down and a big sound putting it into gear and a code that says U0101

I have a 2014 Chevy Impala LTZ, owned it for 9 years. Just started with issues within the last 6months and it just seems to be getting worst everyday. While making a left turn, not even driving 5mph my power steering fails and the drivers side tires seem to lock up as if the car would be hydro planing. Once it happens the dashboard Alerts come on such as Stabilitrac, Traction Control, ABS, Service Break Assistance, Power Steering, and I lost control of the car in the middle of the road!! Brought the car to the shop they change the wheel bearings. We also changed the brakes in March of this year, we had a front and back realignment plus new tires within the last 6 months. The dealer we got it from is no longer in business, as I did buy it used. I called the Chevrolet 800 number for recalls but no luck finding anything. After searching year/make/model I found similar issues to other "2014 Chevy" within the last couple of years. This is a serious issue and it can become dangerous while driving with my family in the car. I can't afford another vehicle as this car is my reliable vehicle.

The right turn signal bulb keeps blowing. Break lights were stuck on. I got pulled over because the blinker wasn't working and parking light wouldn't go off. The officer was nice because I had just got the car and didn't give me a ticket, just a warning. Blinker on passenger side won't work with lights on and fuses for that side keeps blowing

Electrical wiring problems. Parking light wouldn't go off and clicking noise under dash in front seat

My car has had a the side detection modules fail every 1 to 2 years since I've owned the car new in 2014. The dealership has repaired it for free every time now for at least 5 times. Now that the car is not under warranty they refuse to fix it for free. This is a problem with the design and engineering of the car and it is very costly to fix. The problem will continue to occur since the manufacturer refuses to find a permanent solution to the issue. It is related to the placement of the unit and it is affected by the environment and corrodes.

The contact owns a 2014 Chevrolet Impala. The contact stated that while operating the vehicle, the side mirror blind spot detection system malfunctioned, and the warning light blinked constantly and blinked while no oncoming vehicle was present. The contact stated that the failure occurred on both the driver’s side and passenger’s side mirrors. The contact stated that while the failure occurred the electronic cluster also malfunctioned, and the doors and trunk lid would not always open, and the vehicle would not always start immediately. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer who replaced an unknown module kit. The contact stated that the vehicle had been repaired for the same failure on three previous occasions. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, but no assistance was offered. The failure mileage was 40,000.

Multiple electric concerns...airbag light, park assist, inop camera, and losing communication with BCM(?) Found multiple communication codes for a variety of different modules. Found main source to be from the "side detection modules". Found fuse 62 blown underhood. Inspected side detection modules and found "a lot of corrosion" on both modules and connectors. Needs side detection kit. I purchased the used impala on 12/19/2020 with 63,897 miles. The first time this issue was a concern was on 07/02/2022 at Merit chevrolet (MN). Mileage was at 83144 at that time. Diagnosis ... recommend both rear side detection modules and harness? According to Special coverage adjustment #N172097060 it is known to be subject to "water intrusion"? This problem affects the whole electrical system which includes airbag function. Why does this safety concern have a limited coverage time? According to the "Special Coverage" document, there was an 80000 mile timeline? This appears to be an ongoing issue with this year, make, and model and my feeling is that a "special coverage" is denying the safety problem and putting it on the consumer?

The 2014 Chevy Impala is dangerous. When the rocker arm control valve and related parts fail or the camshaft solenoids and sensors fail the car will drive rough and eventually just cut off in the middle of traffic highway or residential. This is what it did on me, putting me in a very dangerous position. The economic loss is still devastating financially as all 2.5 and 3.6 engines arent covered by GM special warranty but they should be all covered. My VIN number was not included when it should be.

Gages are going up and down. All lights keep coming on and appears to dying while driving. Turns dignals do not work when this is happening. My car has been with dealer (2298 Crain Hwy. Waldorf, MD 20601) for two weeks. As of Jan 3, 2023. They are offering to replace the chassis however not following the notified recall. Insisting that I pay...

I was driving in a snowstorm and all of the sudden the ABS, Stabilitrak, and power steering went out. I'm frustrated that this is the 2nd electrical safety issue that I have experienced. Both of which have been reported by several drivers and still no recalls!

Car turned off while driving and lost Al power

Electrical issues, radio volume disappears for a short period of time, turn signal audible noise disappears at same time radio volume stops, power sterring assist stops working for short time, sterring issue repaired in 2016 but doing again, ac cooling stops working for short time period, off and on, seems to be some type of electrical issue with the vehicle, purchased new in 2014, only 32,000 mile on car at present, every time taken to dealer will not reproduce the problem, called GM states recall 14515 is not part of my car, i question that in that this recall is for electrical issues. can not seem to get any furthur with anyone on this issue

Due to a poor electrical ground connection to the power steering control module, the vehicle has been losing power steering assist during start up and while driving; this requires much greater effort for me to steer the vehicle even at low speeds, and is increasing the risk of a crash for me and my family.

POWER STEERING ISSUE.. WAS A RECALL WITH THIS MODEL VEHICLE BACK IN 2014.. CAR HAS ELECTRICAL POWER STEERING AND ITS AFFECTING MY STEERING ON MY CAR

Cross traffic sensors have failed at less than 80K miles but over the covered 6 year coverage. Renders the sensors inoperable and blocks other information the cluster.

Side detection module malfunction. Causing electrical issues and error codes. When happening Headlights Turn on and off without control. Huge safety problem when driving at night!

VEHICLE : 2014 CHEVROLET IMPALA VIN: [XXX] ON 04/08/2022 THE SIDE DETECTION FAILED WARNINGS APPEARED ON DASH WARNING SYSTEM. GENERAL MOTORS INITIATED THE WARRANTY REPAIR NOTICED ( [XXX] ). I FILED A COMPLAINT WITH GM ON 04/11/2022 ( [XXX] ). ON 04/14/2022, I WAS INFORMED BY GM ON THE PHONE, THAT I WAS NOT COVERED. THEIR WARRANTY ENDED O8/2021? THE VEHICLE ALSO MUST HAVE UNDER 80,000. MY VEHICLE HAS ONLY 55,638. I WAS NEVER CONTACTED BY GM OF THIS FAULT. I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER. I HAVE READ THAT THE FAULT ISSUE CAN CAUSE FIRE TO THE VEHICLE. ALSO OTHER ELECTRICAL ISSUES AS UNABLE TO UNLOCK THE CAR DOORS. ( WHICH I AM EXPIERENCING ). I ALSO STARTED A COMPLAINT WITH THE BBB ( 17048359 ). I WILL TAKE TO MY GM DEALER ON 04/18/2022 FOR REPAIR AT MY COST. I THINK GM KNOWS OF THIS SAFETY PROBLEM AND LIABLE FOR THE COST. I HAVE BEEN TOLD GM HAS DESIGNED A NEW MODULE THAT IS WATER PROOF, THUS CORRECTING THE PROBLEM. INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

Bad wiring harnesses causing brakes and antilock brakes to throw codes and fail. Abs and stable track fail and also cause car to suddenly go to low engine power mode while driving down highway. Replaced nearly every brake component plus vehicle computers and abs modules. Vehicle now throwing new codes serious at random. Main pcm computer replaced twice. Abs, brake booster, abs modular, master cylinder, 4 calipers, hoses, abs module and abs valve assembly all these components replaced twice at least. Vehicle was not a flood car.

The contact owns a 2014 Chevrolet Impala. The contact stated that the side detection sensors that illuminate on the rear-view mirror failed to function as intended. The contact stated there was a special customer program released however they had missed the expiration date by one month. The contact took the vehicle to the dealer who confirmed that the side detection sensor, modules and wire harnesses needed to be replaced. The contact later found that the wiring harness associated with this system was prone to corrosion and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired however the failure continued to occur intermittently. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 44, 786.

Mileage: 44,786

51,000 miles. System has failed three times. first two covered by Warranty. Not under warranty now. There are numerous complaints about this problem. It will now cost me up to two thousand to repair. car is at risk of fire,failure to start and other major electrical problems. Dealer wants $140 to diagnose, I am afraid to drive this car.

The electronic parking brake fails to disengage entirely from the rear brake pads causing them to become welded together. This results in extreme heat, excess brake dust, poor acceleration, and caliper / brake line (air) issues.

When I’m driving and slow down my key will turn itself off making the car itself shut off

WATER ENTER IN THROUGH TRUNK LEDGE SEALS TO THE DEGREE OF SHORTENING OUT THE HARNESS, RADIO DASH LIGHTING CAMERA BACK WINDOW. THE FLOOR OF THE TRUNK WAS SOAKED AS THOUGH WATER WAD POURED. THE WATER WAS STANDING A LOT IN THE SPARE TIRE WELL. THERE WAS ANOTHER CUSTOMER WITH THE SAME YEAR MAKE AND MODEL VEHICLE THAT HAD THE EXACT SAME ISSUE DAYS PRIOR TO VISIT TO DEALERSHIP.

Fire started behind glove box area and burned electrical wires, instrument panel, airbag, front windshield, hood, water and smoke damage.

The linx radio stopped working. The onstar system stopped working awhile after the linx radio stopped working when the car started to operate off of battery reserve (or what I think is battery reserve --- the light on the dashboard changed to blue). I've had to change the batter twice in 2.5 years. I'm told the battery Duralast is a good battery and that its an electrical fuse problem and it would be difficult to find which wire is the problem. The vehicle has been inspected by three different dealers in three different states. I was also told to uninstall onstar for resolution of the electrical problem of the battery draining and needing to draw energy from another source taking up more energy than it's suppose to in the vehicle. Yes, in 2017-18, the problem was confirmed by the dealership where I purchased the car brand new in 2014, Criswell Chevrolet in Gaithersburg, MD.

We have had several problems with the blind spot sensor on our 2014 Impala LTZ. Problems would always occur when driving in rain or snow. Dealer would just say that the sensor gets wet and that we should try to dry it off. Once the sensor was dry it would work ok. Now the sensor does not work at all. Took it off and it was full of corrosion. Reading online regarding reviews I find out that this is a very common problem with GM vehicles but GM refuses to do a recall. However they did do a special offer to replace the sensor if you have less than 80,000 miles. My car has 85,000 but I have dealt with this problem for several years. I replaced the sensor myself (at a cost of $400) and now they tell me it has to be reprogrammed. That really sucks. It is too bad that GM just can't accept the fact that they have a faulty product. I am currently waiting for a call back from the dealer to see what it cost to get sensors and wiring harness replaced (GM admits that there definitely was a problem and says you have to replace both sensors and the wiring harness). How in the world can this not be a recall!!!!!!!!!!!

THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 CHEVROLET IMPALA. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE HIS SON WAS STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT, THE BLIND SPOT ALERT WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON THE PASSENGER'S SIDE-VIEW MIRROR AND ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE VEHICLE THEN STALLED. THE CONTACT'S SON RESTARTED THE VEHICLE TO DRIVE HOME. THE BLIND SPOT ALERT LIGHT ON THE PASSENGER'S SIDE REMAINED ILLUMINATED AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS TURNED OFF AND DRAINED THE BATTERY.

(1350 E Wisconsin St, Portage, WI 53901) AND DIAGNOSED AS A BLIND SPOT ALERT SYSTEM FAILURE. THE DEALER CONFIRMED THAT THE FAILURE WAS RELATED TO THE TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE REPAIR WAS NOT COVERED UNDER THE TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 75,812. THE CONSUMER STATED THE REPAIRS WOULD COST $950, BUT THE CONSUMER FEEL AS THOUGH REPAIRS SHOULD BE PAID BY THE MANUFACTURER.

Mileage: 75,812

HAVE HAD CAR AT DEALERSHIP 3 TIMES TOTAL FOR THE SIDE DETECTION SYSTEM MESSAGE/BLIND SPOT INDICATOR LIGHTS. FIRST TWO TIMES THE ISSUE WAS FIXED BECAUSE I HAVE THE MPP COVERAGE PLAN. THIS TIME MPP WOULD HAVE COVERED IT BUT MECHANIC SHOWS WATER INTRUSION. THEIR WAS A RECALL AT ONE TIME FOR VEHICLES UP TO 80,000 MILES. MINE HAS 124,000 SO NOT COVERED BUT WHEN I TOOK IT IN FOR THE SAME THING PRIOR DID NOT HAVE 80,000 MILES. SO EITHER PAY THE $900 OR PAY THE DIAGNOSTIC CHARGE OF $155 AND WALK AWAY WITH ISSUE NOT FIXED . SO MANY COMPLAINTS ON THIS AND GM HAS DONE NOTHING. IF I HAVE FIXED THE MODULE IS OVER $200 FOR THE ONE SIDE. IT KEEPS GOING OUT. GM SHOULD FIX THIS AND CREATE ANOTHER RECALL FOR THIS ALL SO COMMON ISSUE!!

RECEIVED LETTER FROM GMC IN MARCH 2020 REGARDING ELECTRICAL WIRE LEADING TO PASSENGER SEAT NOT DEPLOYING AND MAY BECOME DISCONNECTED AND FAIL TO DEPLOY WHEN COMMANDED. ALSO AN INDICATION WILL BE DISPLAYED ON THE DASHBOARD. MY CAR IS EXPERIENCING THIS ISSUE AND GMC FAILS COVER THE COST BECAUSE ITS NOT IDENTIFIED AS RECALL. THE STATES THEY WILL COVER FOR NO CHARGE IF WITHIN 8 YEARS OF ORIGINALLY PLACED IN SERVICE OR 80,000 MILES (WHICHEVER COMES FIRST). GMC SHOULD ALREADY THAT 2014 CARS WILL BE WELL 80,000 MILES IN 2020! SINCE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND LIVES ARE AT STAKE, GMC SHOULD NOT MAKE THIS FINANCIAL BURDEN FOR CONSUMERS. ADDITIONALLY THE ELECTRICAL WIRING FOR THE ENTIRE SYSTEM IS AN ISSUE. MY SCREEN CONTINUES TO BLINK IN AND OUT AND SHOW A SYSTEM REFRESH AND THE RADIO, BLUETOOTH CAPABILITY, AND LOCKING MECHANISMS ARE INOPERABLE AS WELL. ALL OF THESE ISSUES STARTED AT THE SAME TIME! GMC NEEDS TO TAKE THE SAME STEPS REGARDING AIRBAG SAFETY AS FORD HAS DONE FOR THEIR CONSUMERS WITH OUT OF WARRANTY VEHICLES! FORD IS PROVIDING A FREE SERVICE TO THEIR CUSTOMERS BECAUSE THEY VALUE THE LIVES MORE PROFITS. I'VE TAKEN VEHICLE FOR SERVICE TODAY (4/9/21) AND I'M LOOKING A A HEALTHY BILL. HOPEFULLY ELECTRICAL/SAFETY ISSUES CAN BE ADDRESSED WITH GMC AS THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED IN MULTIPLE FORUMS INCLUDING THIS WEBSITE. THE NUMBER ASSOCIATED WITH THE ELECTRICAL AIRBAG ISSUE IS N192216430. THE ELECTRICAL ISSUES WITH SCREEN AND AIRBAG WAS IDENTIFIED WHEN STARTING THE CAR AND NO CONNECTION AND AIRBAG INDICATOR ON DASHBOARD. THIS HAPPENED AROUND JUNE 2020. I SPOKE WITH CHEVROLET CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE CENTER TODAY (4/9/21) AND NO HELP WAS OFFERED FOR THIS ISSUE.*DT

THE ISSUE STARTED OUT AS A WARNING FROM THE SIDE DETECTION SYSTEM. IN THE PAST WEEK, THE ISSUE ESCALATED TO ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS ON THE DASH COMING ON, AND THEN ALL ELECTRONICS GOING DEAD/DARK. THE TURN SIGNAL INDICATORS HAVE NO LIGHTS AND NO SOUND, THE RADIO SYSTEM IS DEAD, THE SPEEDOMETER AND GAS GAUGE ARE DEAD. AFTER SITTING A FEW HOURS, IT SEEMED THAT THINGS "RESET" TO JUST THE SIDE DETECTION WARNING. MOST RECENTLY, ALL THE ELECTRONICS ARE ACTING STRANGE. PUSHING THE BUTTON ON THE DOOR HANDLE TO UNLOCK IT, DOES NOTHING TO THE DOOR LOCK, HOWEVER, THE DISPLAY SCREEN SHOWS "TIRE LEARNING ACTIVE". WHEN ATTEMPTING THE START THE CAR BY PUSHING THE START BUTTON, NOTHING HAPPENS. IF I PUT THE FOB IN THE SLOT INSIDE THE ARMREST, IT WILL EVENTUALLY START, BUT AGAIN ALL DISPLAY FUNCTIONS ARE DEAD AS IS THE ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROLS (NO BLOWER - NO DEFROST- NO GOOD ON A COLD RAINY DAY). AGAIN THE SIGNAL INDICATORS ARE DARK AND SILENT. THE INDICATOR LIGHT FOR THE AIRBAGS IS NOW ILLUMINATED AS WELL. GM HAD A SHORT LIVED (AND SEEMINGLY SECRET) EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR THE SIDE DETECTION SYSTEM HAVE THIS EXACT ISSUE WHEN WATER GOT INTO THE SENSORS, BUT THAT EXPIRED NEARLY A YEAR AGO. AS THIS ISSUE MAKES THE CAR UNSAFE TO DRIVE, IT SEEMS THAT IT SHOULD BE A FULL RECALL TO ADDRESS THIS SAFETY CONCERN.

I HAD NOTICED THE EPB LIGHT COMING ON INTERMITTENTLY, FAR MORE OFTEN THAN EVERY 50 KEY CYCLES, AND BEGAN EXPERIENCING A SIGNIFICANT DECREASE IN ACCELERATION, POOR BRAKING, BRAKE DUST BUILDUP, UNEVEN TIRE WEAR, BOGGING DOWN WHEN THE VEHICLE WOULD SHIFT AND WHEN ACCELERATING OUT OF A SLOWDOWN AND/OR TURN. I WOULD ALSO CONSTANTLY SMELL BRAKE DUST AND TIRE RUBBER AND FELT MY BRAKES WOULD BECOME EXTREMELY HOT TO THE TOUCH AFTER SHORT TRIPS. I OBSERVED THE OUTER REAR BRAKE PADS THROUGH THE CALIPER AND THERE SEEMED TO BE DECENT PAD LEFT. HOWEVER I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP MANY TIMES AND WAS TOLD EVERY TIME THAT THERE WAS NO NEED TO REPLACE THE PADS. I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED OF ANY SOFTWARE FLASHES TO CORRECT ANY KNOWN OR UNKNOWN ISSUES, AND WAS ONCE TOLD THAT MY BRAKES NEEDED TO BE BLED AND AFTER HAVING THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE THEM WAS TOLD THE ISSUE SHOULD BE CORRECTED. I HAD FRIENDS AND FAMILY WITH AUTOMOTIVE BACKGROUNDS LOOK AT MY BRAKES AND TELL ME THERE SEEMED TO BE NO VISIBLE ISSUES. I FINALLY DECIDED TO HAVE A LOOK MYSELF ONE DAY. AFTER HOISTING THE VEHICLE UP, REMOVING THE REAR TIRE AND INSPECTING THE CALIPER AND PADS, I REALIZED THAT THE EPB HAD ACTUALLY HEAT/RUST-WELDED ITSELF TO THE INNER BRAKE PAD WHICH WAS COMPLETELY WORN WITH NO PAD WHATSOEVER. THE EPB WAS ACTUALLY UNABLE TO RETRACT, EVEN THOUGH THE LIGHT WAS OFF, BECAUSE THE METAL PLATE ON THE BACK OF THE PAD HAD BEEN FUSED TO THE EPB. I HAD TAKEN IT BACK TO THE DEALER WHO REFUSED TO LOOK AT IT AGAIN, AND WAS INEVITABLY TASKED WITH CORRECTING THE ISSUE MYSELF. I HAVE SPENT HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS ON NEW PADS, ROTORS, CALIPER PINS, GREASE, TIRES, ETC. BECAUSE OF THE PERSISTING ISSUE. WHEN I SEARCHED MY VEHICLE BY VIN IT TOLD ME THERE WERE NO RECALLS, BUT AFTER SEARCHING BY YEAR/MAKE/MODEL I FINALLY FOUND THE RECALL INVOLVING THE EPB CAUSING DRAG AFTER FAILING TO RETRACT. THIS ISSUE CONTINUES TODAY.

FOR THE SECOND TIME SINCE PURCHASING THIS VEHICLE NEW, THE BLIND SPOT DETECTION SYSTEM IS FAILING. WHEN THIS SYSTEM FAILS IT SLOWLY TAKES OUT THE REST OF THE VEHICLES ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS, EVEN THOSE NOT RELATED TO ANY COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM. THE FIRST TIME I HAD IT REPAIRED IT WAS OUT OF THE ORIGINAL WARRANTY MEANING I HAD TO PAY THE APPROX. $1000 BILL. A YEAR OR SO LATER RECEIVED A LETTER FROM GM SAYING THAT THAT REPAIR WOULD NOW BE COVERED UP TO 6 YEARS/80,000 MILE AND IF I HAD ALREADY PAID FOR SUCH REPAIR THAT I COULD FILE A CLAIM AND THEY WOULD REIMBURSE ME FOR THE PREVIOUS WORK. WELL AMAZINGLY THEY REIMBURSED ME FOR THE FIRST REPAIR, WHICH WAS GREAT! EXCEPT NOW, THE SAME EXACT THING HAS HAPPENED AGAIN AND I AM NOW PAST THE 6 YEAR 80,000 MILE MARK. GM NEEDS TO REDESIGN THIS SYSTEM TO NOT BE PLACED IN HIGH MOISTURE AREAS OR AT THE VERY LEAST HAVE A MODULE/CONNECTOR THAT IS NOT SUSCEPTIBLE TO WATER INTRUSION.

I WAS DRIVING AND THE SIDE DETECTION SYSTEM WARNING CAME UP AND MY CAR STARTED TO MALFUNCTION RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION. IT WOULD SHUT OFF, COME BACK ON, LIGHTS WERE FLICKERING, AND I LOST BRAKING CONTROL. HAD TO LIMP MY CAR INTO A NEARBY PARKING LOT. I KNOW CHEVROLET OFFERED A SPECIAL WARRANTY FOR THIS ISSUE, BUT IT WAS LIKE 6 YEARS LATER, AND HALF THE PEOPLE YOU FIND WITH THIS ISSUE ARE OUTSIDE THE MILEAGE THEY REQUIRE. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN, AND CHEVROLET SHOULD BE THE ONE TO FIX IT.

I JUST GOT MY CAR BACK FROM THE DEALER AND NOT EVEN A DAY LATER AFTER THEY HAD IT FOR 3 DAYS THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY COULD FIND NOTHING WRONG WITH MY CAR. BUT AS I AM RIDING DOWN THE HIGHWAY I WAS GOING ABOUT 65 AND MY CAR SHUT AND CAME BACK ON. I LOST CONTROL OF MY STEERING WHEEL, THEN THE CAR STARTED DRIVING NORMAL. ONCE I ARRIVED TO MY JOB AND TURNED THE CAR OFF. MY VEHICLE SHUT OFF AND THE IGNITION LIGHTS ALONG WITH THE SIDE PANEL LIGHTS WAS BLANKING BUT NOTHING ELSE WAS ON. I COULDN'T PUT MY WINDOWS UP AND THE CAR WOULDN'T CUT ON SO I LEFT IT FOR A FEW MINUTES AND WALKED BACK OUTSIDE AFTER 5 MINUTES BECAUSE I NOTICED ALL OF MY OUTSIDE LIGHTS WHERE ON, AND AT THIS TIME. I WAS ABLE TO CUT MY CAR ON AND OFF BUT I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO EXPECT WHEN I GET READY TO LEAVE. I NEED SOMEONE TO CONTACT ME SO I CAN GET THIS FIX BECAUSE ITS BECOMING ANNOYING AND I AM A DISABLED VETERAN AND ITS WORKING MY MENTAL.

I WAS DRIVING WITH MY INFANT DAUGHTER IN THE CAR WHEN EVERYTHING ELECTRICAL IN MY CAR STARTED GOING HAYWIRE. MY BLINKERS DID NOT WORK, MY RADIO WAS ON THE FRITZ, BREAKING WAS CUTTING IN AND OUT, AND MY STEERING KEPT LOCKING UP. WE WERE GOING THROUGH A VERY BUSY INTERSECTION IN TOWN TOO, AND MY CAR DOING SOMETHING LIKE THIS COULD HAVE GOTTEN US BOTH SERIOUSLY INJURED OR EVEN WORSE. IT DID IT ONCE AGAIN A FEW WEEKS LATER WHILE I WAS IN THE HIGHWAY, BUT LUCKY I KNEW HOW TO REACT ONCE THE PROBLEM STARTED. I COME TO FIND OUT IT'S A 'SAFETY FEATURE' CAUSING THE ISSUE. IT'S SHORTING OUT AND CAUSING THE ENTIRE CAR TO ESSENTIALLY SHUTDOWN. WHILE. I'M. DRIVING. IF THIS ISN'T A SAFETY ISSUE IN NEED OF A RECALL, I DO NOT KNOW WHAT IS.

AROUND 3 YEARS AGO. 3 PARTS THE LANE DEPARTURE MODULES CONTROL ARE THE BLIND SPOT SENSORS, REAR BACKUP SENSORS AND A FRONT CAMERA. MY LANE DEPARTURE MODULES GOT WET AND MESSED UP MY CAR WHERE THERE WERE MANY THINGS GOING WRONG. WHILE I WAS DRIVING MY CAR SAID THE AIR BAG WENT OFF, THEFT WAS DETECTED, BLOWER FAN & TEMP CONTROLS WHERE GOING ON AND OFF WHILE I WAS DRIVING. 2 YEARS AGO GM AGREED TO REPLACE THE MODULES. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THEY WERE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE PROGRAMMING OF THE MODULES. THEY FINALLY GOT THEM TO PROGRAM. THE DAY I PICKED UP MY CAR I NOTICED ISSUES WITH THE SENSOR SYSTEM. THEY SAID TO DRIVE IT. I TOOK IT AND THE PROBLEM GOT WORSE. WITH THE BLIND SPOT SENSOR, ON THE PASSENGER SIDE GOES ON AND OFF ALL THE TIME, I HAVE PICTURES AND VIDEOS SHOWING WHERE I AM DRIVING WITH NO VEHICLE NEXT TO ME AT ALL WITH THE LIGHT FOR THE SENSOR SHINING BRIGHT. THE REAR BACKUP SENSOR DOES NOT WARM ME, LAST WEEK I DID NOT SEE A GARBAGE CAN BEHIND ME BECAUSE IT WAS LOWER THAN MY TRUNK AND I HIT THE CAN AND BROKE MY TAIL LIGHT. THE FRONT SENSOR THAT TELLS ME I AM GOING TO FAST FOR THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME GOES ON RANDOMLY WHEN THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME IS MORE THAN 100 FEET OR NO CAR AT ALL. I HAVE TAKING MY CAR TO 3 DEALERSHIPS 4 TIMES. ALL THE DEANSHIP'S SAY THEY CAN'T FIX IT BECAUSE THEY DON'T GET A CODE. THERE IS NO CODE FOR THIS, NOT TO MENTION WHEN MY LANE DEPARTURE MODULES FAILED THERE WAS NO CODE FOR IT, THEY JUST STOPPED WORKING. THEY SAY IT IS UNDIAGNOSEABLE. GM SAW THE PICTURES AND VIDEOS AND ARE NOW SAYING THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE SYSTEM WITHOUT LOOKING AT THE CAR JUST THE PICTURES AND VIDEOS. HOW CAN THEY SAY NOTHING IS WRONG WHEN YOU SEE IN THE VIDEOS THE LIGHT IS ON AND NO CAR IS NEXT TO ME? HOW DO I LET MY 15-YEAR-OLD DAUGHTER DRIVE THIS CAR WITH A LIGHT ON WHEN NO ONE IS THERE? PLEASE HELP ME! THE SAFETY AND SECURITY SYSTEM IS NOT SAFE AT ALL.

I OWN A 2014 CHEVY IMPALA LTZ. DURING THE WINTER OF 2018 - 2019 I STARTED SEEING THE SIDE DETECTION LIGHT COME ON RANDOMLY AND STAYING ON EVEN WHEN THE CAR WAS NOT RUNNING. THE PROBLEM PROGRESSED AND ONE DAY AS I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT 60 MPH, AT NIGHT, ALL POWERED SYSTEMS FLASHED ON AND OFF INCLUDING MY HEADLIGHTS. I BROUGHT THE CAR INTO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD IT WAS NOT COVERED. I RELUCTANTLY PAID THE $1,456 BILL. A FEW MONTHS LATER I RECEIVED THE NOTICE THAT THERE WAS A RECALL AND I SUBMITTED A REQUEST FOR REIMBURSEMENT, WHICH I DID RECEIVE FROM THE DEALER. NOW A LITTLE OVER A YEAR LATER I AM HAVING THE SAME ISSUES. I KNEW I NEEDED TO GET THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALER. WHEN I CALLED TO GET AN APPOINTMENT THEY WERE THREE WEEKS OUT. NOW JUST DAYS BEFORE MY APPOINTMENT WITH THE DEALER, MY CAR WON'T EVEN START. ALL ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS FLASH ON AND OFF. MY CAR HAS JUST UNDER 80,000 MILES. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE AS IT EFFECTS ALL ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS IN THE CAR. MOST OF THE SAFETY FUNCTIONS OF THIS CAR RELY ON THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. *TR

I BOUGHT THE CAR MARCH 1ST 2017 WITH 89346 MILES. EVERYTHING WAS GOING GREAT,NO PROBLEMS, AND I LOVE IT.I RECEIVED A SPECIAL COVERAGE LETTER IN MAY OF 2019 THAT INFORMED ME OF A POTENTIAL SIDE BLIND ZONE ALERT PROBLEM PREVENTING IT FROM WORKING PROPERLY AND TO BRING IT IN ONLY IF IT MET THE SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES THAT CAME WITH IT INCLUDING BEING WITHIN 6 YEARS OF ORIGINAL SERVICE OR 80,000 MILES. AT THE TIME, THERE WAS NO SIGN OF PROBLEMS, SO I JUST SET THE NOTICE ASIDE AND DID WHAT THE THE NOTICE TOLD ME,UNTIL FEBRUARY 2020. IT WAS WET OUTSIDE ONE DAY AND I NOTICED THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE BLIND ZONE ALERT LOCATED ON THE MIRROR ALWAYS STAYED ON, EVEN THOUGH THE CAR WAS OFF. IT ALWAYS STAYS ON AND I WAS CONCERNED ABOUT IT SO I STARTED DOING RESEARCH AND LEARNED IT IS A VERY COMMON EXPENSIVE PROBLEM AND MANY PEOPLE ARE UPSET THIS IS HAPPENING TO THEM, INCLUDING ME.I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR MY APPOINTMENT, UNDER THE IMPRESSION THAT IT WAS COVERED, ONLY TO GET THERE AND TELL ME THAT IT HAS EXPIRED AND THAT IT WOULD BE $90 TO DIAGNOSE THE OBVIOUS ISSUE. I THINK THAT CHEVROLET NEEDS TO EXTEND THE SPECIAL PROGRAM OR DO SOMETHING TO HELP CUSTOMERS THAT PURCHASED THE CAR AFTER THE EXPIRATION DATE, ESPECIALLY CUSTOMERS LIKE ME THAT PURCHASED THE CAR AFTER THE 80,000 MILES.. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. I LOVE THE CAR BUT THIS LIGHT CONSTANTLY BEING ON IS A NUISANCE AND SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING ON A NEWER CAR, AND IT IS ALSO A SAFETY CONCERN.

AROUND 100,000 MILES (ABOUT 5 YEARS OLD) I STARTED RECEIVING A SIDE DETECTION SYSTEM WARNING AND IGNORED IT FOR A COUPLE OF MONTHS BECAUSE I DIDN'T FEEL LIKE I WAS DEPENDENT ON THE BLIND SPOT WARNINGS. ONE MORNING I STARTED MY VEHICLE AND I GOT AN ERROR MESSAGE FOR ABOUT EVERY SENSOR ON THE CAR. THE CAR STARTED IT BUT THE ENGINE WAS RUNNING ROUGH. LUCKILY, I WAS ABLE TO MAKE IT TO A MECHANIC. THEY FOUND OUT THAT THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM WAS SHORTING OUT DUE TO THE BAD SIDE DETECTION SYSTEM SENSOR. I HAD TO PAY ALMOST $750 TO REPLACE THE BAD SENSOR. THE WORST PART IS NOW ABOUT 18,000 MILES LATER, I'M GETTING THE SAME SIDE DETECTION SYSTEM ERROR. IT MUST BE A SERIOUS DESIGN FLAW IF THE REPLACEMENT PART IS LASTING LESS THAN 20,000 MILES AND LESS THAN YEAR. NOW, I HAVE TO BALANCE WASTING ANOTHER $750 VERSUS MY ELECTRICAL SYSTEM SHORTING OUT DUE TO THE FAILING SENSOR - HOPEFULLY, THIS SHORTING OUT DOESN'T OCCUR DURING HEAVY TRAFFIC AND CAUSE AN ISSUE. A FEW SIMPLE INTERNET SEARCHES SHOWS THAT MANY CAR OWNERS ARE HAVING THIS ISSUE, I CAN'T BELIEVE THE GOVERNMENT DOESN'T FORCE CHEVY TO ISSUE A RECALL.

MY CAR HAS BEEN STALLING ON OCCASIONAL INCIDENTS FOR THE PAST 3 YEARS, I HAVE BROUGHT IT UP TO MY CHEVROLET DEALER AND THEY SAY NOTHING IS WRONG, BUT ON FRIDAY JANUARY 17, 2020 I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE FWY AT 65 MILES AN HOUR AND MY CARS SPEED GAUGE DROPPED TO 1 AND MY SPEED BEGAN TO DECREASE, I HAD TO ACT QUICKLY, AS I WAS ON THE FAST LANE, I STEPPED HARDER ON THE GAS AND AFTER LIKE 5 SEC. MY SPEED AND GAUGE BEGAN TO INCREASE. I ALSO HAD AN INCIDENT WITH MY CAR ON FEB. 21, 2020 AS I GOING TO PARK AT MY COLLEGE, I BEGAN TO TURN LEFT AND MY CARS ENGINE COMPLETELY TURNED OFF, MY CAR LIGHTS AND RADIO WERE ON THE BATTERY VOLTAGE WAS AT 14.9, BUT MY CAR NO LONGER WANTED TO START. I TRIED NUMEROUS TIMES TO TURN IT ON AFTER THE 8TH TIME I GAVE UP BECAUSE I GOT THE SMELL OF GAS, MY CAR HAD 3/4 OF GAS SO I NEW THAT WAS NOT THE ISSUE. I HAD TO CALL TRIPLE A TO GET MY CAR TOWED AND I WAS I FORMED THAT MY CAR TURNED ON WITH NO ISSUE WHEN THEY DELIVERED IT HOME. THIS PAST FEW WEEKS MY CAR HAS BEEN STALLING BUT NOT TO THAT DEGREE, I WILL BE TAKING IT BACK TO MY DEALER TO SEE IF THE CAN FIND ANYTHING, BUT I'M VERY WORRIED WITH THESE ISSUES.

SOME OF THE THINGS EFFECTED WAS ELECTRICAL COMPANY'S SUCH AS ELECTRONIC PARKING BREAK WAS ENGAGED AND WOULD NOT RELEASE CAUSE THE VEHICLE NOT TO MOVE! NEXT WAS CORROSION ON SEVERAL OTHER INSIDE WIRES HAVING TO DO WITH STEERING AND POSSIBLY AIR BAGS, BUT WHO KNOWS IF THEY WILL BE EFFECTIVE UNTIL THERE IS AN ACCIDENT AND IT'S TOO LATE TO FIND OUT IF THEY ARE DMAMGED. OTHER SAFETY FEATURES SUCH AS SIDE DETECTION WAS CORRODED SO IT TOO MALFUNCTIONED. THERE WAS A LOT OF OTHER ELECTRICAL THINGS DAMAGED BUT THE CAR IS IN THE SHOP AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE COULD BE A HUGE SAFE CONCERN. THERE IS NOW SO MUCH MOLD WHICH IS DANGEROUS TO BE BREATHING IN IF NOT TOTALLY REPLACED. THERE IS AN EXTENSIVE AMOUNT OF WATER IN THE SPARE TIRE WHEEL WELL THAT IS CAUSING RUST AND THE INABILITY TO USE THIS SAFETY FEATURE IF NEEDED! THIS BECAME A HORRIBLE SAFETY CONCERN FOR MYSELF AND WHOMEVER MY BE TRAVELING IN MY VEHICLE.

THE CAR HAS INTERMITTENT VARIOUS ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS. IT WILL RUN FINE AND THEN THE NEXT TIME THE KEY FOB WONT OPEN THE DOOR, NO INTERIOR LIGHTS, IT WONT START...ABSOLUTELY NO POWER TO ANYTHING IN THE CAR. IT IS AS IF THE ENTIRE BATTERY WAS REMOVED. THEN LATER, IT WILL START RIGHT UP. TRYING TO JUMP START IT DOES NOTHING.THIS HAS LEFT ME COMPLETELY STRANDED SEVERAL TIMES. I HAVE HAD THE CAR TOWED 3 TIMES. BUT EACH TIME WHEN I GET IT TO THE MECHANIC, IT STARTS RIGHT UP. OTHER TIMES, THE CAR RUNS FINE BUT THE DOOR LOCKS WILL UNLOCK AND LOCK ON THEIR OWN RAPIDLY OVER AND OVER. THIS USUALLY HAPPENS WHILE SITTING WITH THE CAR ON AND IN PARK. OTHER TIMES WHEN TRYING TO PULL INTO TRAFFIC, THE ENGINE SPUTTERS, THE RADIO DISPLAY FLASHES ON AND OFF, AND THE AC BLOWER CUTS OUT ALL AT THE SAME TIME. THIS IS DANGEROUS BECAUSE THE SPUTTERING STALLS THE ACCELERATION WHILE PULLING INTO TRAFFIC. OTHER TIMES JUST THE RADIO AND THE DISPLAY WILL GO OFF - SOMETIMES FOR DAYS & SOMETIMES JUST A FEW MINUTES, BUT EVERYTHING ELSE WORKS FINE. OTHER TIMES THE SPEEDOMETER WILL COMPLETELY STOP WORKING AND THE GAS GAGE REGISTERS NOTHING. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON THE INTERSTATE ON LONG DRIVES SO THAT I CAN'T TELL HOW FAST I AM GOING OR WHETHER I HAVE ENOUGH GAS. IT WILL THEN START BACK UP, BUT MAY BE DAYS LATER. I TOOK IT IN TO BE FIXED. THEY TOOK THE COMPUTER OUT FROM UNDER THE REAR WHEEL WELL AND SHOWED ME THAT IT WAS COMPLETELY CORRODED. I DROVE THE CAR WITHOUT A COMPUTER FOR 8 MONTHS BUT BECAUSE OF THE SAME PROBLEMS CONTINUING, I TOOK IT BACK IN AND THEY SAID I NEEDED A NEW COMPUTER. THE CAR HAD TOO MANY MILES FOR THIS TO BE COVERED SO I PAID OVER $1500 FOR THIS TO BE FIXED. NOW IT IS 3 WEEKS AFTER GETTING THE NEW COMPUTER INSTALLED. ALL OF THE PROBLEMS HAVE CONTINUED.

I THOUGHT IT MEANT IT COULDN'T BE OLDER THAN 6 YEARS OLD BUT WASN'T SURE WHAT PLACED IN SERVICE MEANT AND ALSO NOT HAVE OVER 80,000 MILES ON IT. MY VEHICLE HAS ALMOST 26,000 AND MY DATE WAS SEPTEMBER 13 PER THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP, SO WHEN I CALLED TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT THEY TOLD ME IT WAS NOT COVERED ANYMORE. I HAD AN APPOINTMENT IN AUGUST BUT HAD TO CANCEL IT AS MY MOM WAS JUST PUT INTO HOSPICE AT THAT POINT. YOU WOULD THINK THEY WOULD PUT IN THE LETTER MY DATE OF ORIGINALLY PLACED IN SERVICE BUT IT WOULD MAKE IT A LOT EASIER TO UNDERSTAND. I AM HOPING THAT I CAN STILL HAVE IT FIXED AND NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR SOMETHING THAT GM MADE INCORRECTLY. MY SIDE BLIND ALERT COMES ON EVERY TIME I TURN MY CAR ON AND DOESN'T WORK IN THE RAIN WHEN I AM DRIVING. I THOUGHT THIS FEATURE WAS TO HELP PEOPLE BE MORE SAFE ON THE ROAD AND LESSEN CRASHES BUT IT SEEMS TO BE ABOUT MONEY FOR GM OR ELSE THEY WOULD FIX IT.

THIS OCCURRED WHEN LEAVING A FRIEND'S DRIVEWAY AND DRIVING ONTO A COUNTY ROAD. THE POWER STEERING WAS INOPERATIVE! TOOK VEHICLE TO REPAIR SHOP. MECHANIC FOUND LEFT REAR WHEEL SPEED SENSOR RING BROKEN. THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN! THERE ARE 50215 MILES ON THIS CAR AND IT IS VERY WELL MAINTAINED.

I HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE LANE DEPARTURE MODULES THAT EXPLODE AND AND CAUSED MY SYSTEM TO FAIL. SAYING THAT MY AIRBAG DEPLOYED, MY GAS WAS EMPTY, THEY THEFT IS DETECTED, THE A/C BLOWER MOTOR TURNED ON AND OFF, FINALLY I GOT THE MODULES REPLACED, BUT NOW THERE ARE NEW SAFETY ISSUES HAPPENING. THE LIGHT ON THE MIRROR TO TELL IF SOMEONE IS NEXT TO ME TURNS ON ALL THE TIME. I ALMOST RAN OFF THE RAID BECAUSE I WAS CHANGING LANES AND IT WENT OFF AND NOW ONE WAS THERE. THE BACKUP SENSORS ARE DELAYED IN TELLING ME IF SOMETHING IS BEHIND ME OR COMING BEHIND ME. THE FRONT SYSTEM DOES NOT MAKE THE CAR SLOW DOWN WHEN I AM IN CRUSE CONTROL AND A CAR GOES SLO INFORNT OF ME. I DON'T TRUST THAT THE AIRBAG WILL GO OFF IF IT NEEDS TO IN A COLLISION.. I REALLY DON'T FEEL SAFE IN THIS CAR.

WHEN STARTING THE VEHICLE 5E 'SERVICE STABILITRACK' LIGHT WILL TURN ON; THE GEAR WILL BE ON MANUAL INSTEAD OF INT HE PARK POSITION - AND I AM UNABLE TO SWITCH THE GEAR. I AM NOT ABLE TO PUT IT IN DRIVE. I HAVE TO TURN IT OFF AND ON A COUPLE OF TIMES BEFORE IT WILL START ON PARK. THE CAR HAS ALSO SWITCHED TO THE MANUAL POSITION WHEN I'M DRIVING AND MAKING A LEFT TURN. THIS HAPPENS MORE FREQUENTLY AFTER IT'S RAINED THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON, BUT AFTER A FEW DAYS IT TURNS OFF. THE PROBLEM OF GOING FROM PARK TO MANUAL OR FROM BEING IN DRIVE TO MANUAL HAS HAPPENED BOTH WHILE THE CAR IS IN MOTION OR WHEN IT IS STATIONARY- IT'S ALSO HAPPENED ON A BUSY HIGHWAY OR IN TOWN AT LOW SPEED.

Mileage: 120,000

SIDE DETECTION SYSTEM QUIT WORKING. HOWEVER IT IS CONNECTED TO THE MAIN COMPUTER SO SOMETIMES MY CAR WILL IDLE POORLY AND REV HIGH. THIS COULD PRESENT A HUGE PROBLEM IF IT REVS HIGH WHEN TRYING TO BRAKE FOR A CAR IN FRONT OF ME. I HAVE ALSO HEARD PEOPLE WITH THE SAME MODEL HAVING ISSUES WITH IT STALLING. SO THIS PRESENTS IT'S OWN PROBLEMS. SEEMS NO DIFFERENT THAN THE LOSS OF POWER LIKE GM HAD WITH THEIR IGNITION SWITCHES.

Mileage: 72,000

SIDE DETECTION SYSTEM FAILURE. MODULE ABSORBING MOISTURE. DETECTION LIGHT ON SIDE MIRROR STAYS ON, EVEN WHEN CAR IS OFF. INSTRUMENT CLUSTER FLASHES VARIOUS WARNINGS. GM IS AWARE THAT IT IS DUE TO A DEFECTIVE PART BUT LIMITS COVERAGE TO CERTAIN MILEAGE. SEEMS LIKE A PART THAT COULD CAUSE A FIRE NEAR THE GAS TANK WOULD BE A BIG ENOUGH SAFETY HAZARD TO WARRANT A FULL RECALL. ISSUE FIRST HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING THROUGH TOWN. GAVE WARNINGS ON THE SIDE DETECTION, THEN LIGHT STAYED ON IN THE SIDE VIEW MIRROR.

ACCORDING TO AN APRIL 2019 LETTER FROM CHEVROLET/GM, SIDE BLIND-ZONE ALERT SENSOR IS KNOWN TO NEED REPLACEMENT. THEIR LETTER SAYS TO HAVE IT REPAIRED AT ANY GM DEALER, BUT THERE ARE NO PARTS AVAILABLE. I'VE CALLED THE DEALER 3 TIMES AND THEY HAVE NO ETA FOR THE BACK-ORDERED PARTS. TODAY I CALLED GM DIRECTLY AND THEY DO NOT EVEN HAVE AN ETA FOR WHEN THESE PARTS MAY BE AVAILABLE. THE REP I SPOKE TO TODAY REALIZED THIS WAS PRETTY ABSURD, BUT OBVIOUSLY PROVIDING THE PARTS GOES ABOVE HIS PAY GRADE. I DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE TO DO.

IN MY 2014 CHEVY IMPALA LT I HAVE NOTICED THAT WHEN IT RAINS OR WHEN WASHING THE CAR WATER SEEMS TO LEAK INTO THE CAR IN THE TRUNK AND INTO THE AREA WHERE THE SPARE TIRE SITS. HOWEVER IT'S NOT NOTICEABLE AS THE CARPET IN THE TRUNK DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE BET UNTILL YOU LIFT IT UP. ANOTHER THING I NOTICED WITH THIS WAS THAT MY LOCKS ON THE DOORS WERE LOCKING AND UNLOCKING BY THEMSELVES AND AT ONE POINT THE VEHICLE DID NOT RESPOND TO THE UNLOCK REQUEST FROM THE TRANSPONDER. I THEN USED ONSTARS REMOTE UNLOCK AFTER TRYING EVERY BUTTON ON THE TRANSPONDER TO GAIN ENTRY TO THE VEHICLE. SHORT TIME AFTER THAT EXPERIENCE I HAVE NOTICED MY PARKING BREAK TO ACTIVATE IT'S SELF AFTER BEING PARKED AND THE CAR BEING SHUT OFF I WOULD COME BACK AND SEE THAT THE PARKING LIGHT WOULD BE ON AND I'D HAVE TO PRESS THE BREAK TO UNLOCK THE PARKING BREAK. WHEN THE CARS PARKING BREAK GOES ON THE CAR IS PARKED ON A FLAT SURFACE. I WANT THE CAR TO REPEAT THE ISSUES SO THEY MAY BE RECORDED ON VIDEO HOWEVER I DON'T WANT TO DAMAGE MY VEHICLE AS I TAKE PRIDE IN THE PRODUCT THAT I HAVE PURCHASED.

SERVICE BLIND DETECTION SYSTEM. THIS WARNING CAME ON AFTER 1 DAY OF PURCHASING MY 2014 IMPALA SO I TOOK CAR BACK AND THE DEALER TOOK IT TO CHEVY TO FIX THE RECALL BUT I WAS TOLD THAT THEY'RE TO MANY MILES ON MY VEHICLE. THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO BE FIXED BECAUSE I'M WITHIN MY 15DAYS IF USED VEHICLE WARRANTY AND IF THIS ISSUE CONTINUES THIS COULD CAUSE OTHER ISSUES AS I HAVE READ DUE TO REVIEWS ON THIS ISSUE. BECAUSE NOW IT BECOMES A BIGGER ISSUE AND COULD CAUSE LAWSUITS DUE TO BEING NOT COVERED AND WITH BEING OUT OF THE MILEAGE COVERAGE PERIOD COULD REALLY DESTROY A COMPANY BECAUSE IT'S JUST NOT SAFE. I WOULD LIKE MORE INFORMATION AND HOW THIS COULD BE FIXED BECAUSE THIS IS A NEW PURCHASE AND I HAVEN'T EVEN HAD THE VEHICLE 5 DAYS AND IF THIS VEHICLE STARTS A ELECTRICAL FIRE/ PROBLEM IT BECOMES A BIGGER ISSUE CAN YOU PLEASE FIX MY ISSUE AND MAKE EXCEPTIONS TO THIS RECALL MESS.

MILEAGE: 89000 CUSTOMER RECEIVED A LETTER FROM GM STATING AN EXTENDED WARRANTY IS NOW AVAILABLE REGARDING THE SIDE BLIND ZONE DETECTION SYSTEM ERROR THAT DISPLAYS OVER THE ENTIRE DASH DISPLAY PANEL. THE WARRANTY WAS EXTENDED TO 6 YEARS FROM THE DATE VEHICLE WAS PLACED IN SERVICE AND 80,000 MILES. MANY OF THE VEHICLES AFFECTED BY THIS ARE EXPERIENCING THIS ISSUE AT JUST OVER 80,000 MILES OR HAVE GONE PAST 80,000 MILES DUE TO GM'S LACK OF A TIMELY RESPONSE TO THIS ISSUE THAT HAS AFFECTED SEVERAL PEOPLE. THE SERVICE SIDE DETECTION MESSAGE APPEARS UPON STARTING THE VEHICLE AND REMAINS TO BLOCK THE DIGITAL INFO CENTER UNTIL IT IS DISMISSED BY THE DRIVER WHO HAS TO MOVE THE THUMB TO PRESS THE BUTTON. THIS MESSAGE ALSO RE-APPEARS AFTER DRIVING FOR SEVERAL MILES CAUSING THE DRIVER TO LOOK AWAY FROM THE ROAD TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE ALERT. THE REAR SIDE DETECTION MODULES WERE PLACED BEHIND THE REAR WHEELS AND COLLECT WATER, DUST, DIRT, AND DEBRIS CAUSING FAILURE. GM SHOULD REDESIGN THIS HOUSING TO BETTER PROTECT THE MODULES IN THE FUTURE

THE CONTACT RECEIVED AN EXTENDED WARRANTY #N172097060 (SIDE BLIND ZONE ALERT MODULE WATER INTRUSION) HOWEVER THE VEHICLE EXCEEDED THE 80,000 MILE TIME LIMIT. THE CONTACT WAS CONCERNED THAT THE PASSENGER PRESENCE DETECTION SYSTEM WOULD FAIL AND THAT THE AIR BAG WOULD NOT DEPLOY IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED BY A DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND PROVIDED NO ASSISTANCE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

SIDE BLIND ZONE ALERT SENSORS HAVE FAILED. THESE FAILED SENSORS ARE CAUSING OTHER ELECTRICAL ISSUES WITH THE VEHICLE INCLUDING AIR BAG WARNING, INSTRUMENT CLUSTER INTERMITTENTLY NOT WORKING, HVAC CONTROLS NOT WORKING AND INTERMITTENT ISSUES WITH STARTING THE CAR. RECEIVED A LETTER FROM GM EXTENDING COVERAGE ON THE COMPONENTS TO 6 YEARS / 80,000 MILES. VEHICLE HAS 142,000 MILES BUT THIS IS NOT A PART THAT IS A WEAR AND TEAR ITEM. GM HAS ACKNOWLEDGED THIS PART HAS KNOWN ISSUES BUT HAS LIMITED THE AMOUNT OF TIME/MILEAGE THEY WILL COVER. SAFETY ISSUE DUE TO INSTRUMENT CLUSTER BEING UNRESPONSIVE AND AIR BAG POTENTIALLY BEING DISABLED DUE TO THIS.

Mileage: 142,000

SIDE DETECTION SYSTEM SENSORS ARE LOCATED ON THE INSIDE OF THE REAR BUMPER PANEL ON EITHER SIDE, THEY DETECT CARS IN THE BLIND SPOT. THE SENSORS ARE LOCATED IN A POOR LOCATION TO BEGIN WITH, THEY ARE IN DIRECT LINE OF FIRE WITH ROAD AND TIRE DEBRIS, SALT WATER, GRAVEL, SAND, SNOW, MUD, ETC. OVER TIME, THE NATURAL ELEMENTS SEEP INTO THE CRACKS OF THESE SENSORS AND/OR THEIR WIRING HARNESSES AT THE CONNECTIONS, AND CAUSE MALFUNCTIONING OF THIS SYSTEM. MINIMALLY, THE PROBLEM CAN BE RESOLVED BY REPLACING THE SENSORS AND/OR HARNESSES FOR BRAND NEW ONES. AT THE WORST, THESE MALFUNCTIONED SENSORS CAUSE OTHER ELECTRICAL MALFUNCTIONS AND SUBSEQUENTLY INCREASED ROAD HAZARDS AND DRIVING CONDITIONS BY THE WAY THAT IT CAN LEAD TO THE DRIVER INFO CENTER GOING BLACK, THE RADIO CUTTING OUT, ALL THE INTERIOR AND GAUGE CLUSTER LIGHTS GOING OUT WHILE ON THE ROAD. IF LEFT UNRESOLVED BECAUSE MANY CUSTOMERS AND DRIVERS WOULD MUCH RATHER WAIT FOR AN OFFICIAL RECALL AND CONTINUE DRIVING, MANY WILL BE AT RISK.

THE BLIND SPOT MONITORING SYSTEM FAILED ON MY VEHICLE AT ONLY 62,000 MILES. THE MODULES AND HARNESS ARE MOUNTED UNDER THE REAR BUMPER COVER BEHIND THE WHEELS WHERE MOISTURE DIRT AND ROAD SALT ENTER CAUSING CORROSION AND POSSIBLE FIRE. THE PASSENGER SIDE NOTIFICATION LIGHT STAYED ON FOR TWO DAYS STRAIGHT EVEN WHEN THE CAR WAS OFF. IT IS NOT FUSED IN THE BACK OF THE VEHICLE ONLY UNDER THE HOOD. THESE SAFETY COMPONENTS SHOULD BE MOUNTED IN THE TRUNK PER INDUSTRY STANDARD OR SEALED WITH PROPER WEATHER RESISTANT GASKETS AT THE VERY LEAST. THE HARNESS WAS CORRODED SO BADLY IT WAS JUMPING THE CONNECTION AND BLOWING FUSES. THE MODULES WERE VISIBLY SWOLLEN FROM HAVING MOISTURE INSIDE AND RUST FORMING. I CONTACTED GM AND THEY WOULD NOT COVER THE REPAIR. THERE SHOULD BE A FULL RECALL IF NOT A SPECIAL COVERAGE ON THIS SAFETY ISSUE, IT IS VERY SERIOUS AND VERY COSTLY. MY GARAGE/HOUSE COULD HAVE BURNED DOWN OR I COULD HAVE BEEN INVOLVED IN A VEHICLE FIRE OR ACCIDENT DUE TO LOSS OF SAFETY FEATURE.

MY CAR WAS EXPERIENCING INTERMITTENT ISSUES WITH THE SIDE BLIND SPOT MONITORING SYSTEM WHEN MY CAR'S DASH STOPPED WORKING WHILE TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY AT 55 MPH.. I HAD SEVERAL SERVICE SYSTEM ERRORS` `FOR `SIDE BLIND SPOT, FRONT CAMERA, TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR ETC BUT MOST CONCERNING IS THAT THE DIRECTIONAL WOULD NOT FUNCTION, THE GAS, SPEEDOMETER, AND THE TACHOMETER DID NOT FUNCTION. IT WAS DUSK AND IT APPEARED THE AUTOMATIC LIGHTING CONTROL STOPPED WORKING AS WELL. I STOPPED SAFELY AND TURNED OFF MY CAR AND TRIED TO RESTART THE CAR AND THE PUSH BUTTON START WOULD NOT WORK. I WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE CAR BY PUTTING THE KEY FOB IN THE FACTORY POCKET DESIGNED TO START THE CAR WITH A KEY FOB WITH A LOW BATTERY. I WAS ABLE TO GET MY CAR INTO THE CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP AND THEY CONFIRMED THAT THE SIDE BLIND SPOT MODULES WERE BAD. THEY DISCONNECTED THE MODULES AND MY CAR'S DASH FUNCTION RETURNED WITH JUST A WARNING TO SERVICE THE SIDE BLIND SPOT SYSTEM THE DEALERSHIP PROVIDED ME A COPY OF A GM SERVICE BULLETIN #17-NA-154 SERVICE SIDE OBJECT DETECTION MESSAGE STATING TO REPLACE BOTH MODULES AND THE WIRING HARNESS NEED TO BE REPLACED FOR $1,638.91. I HAD ALREADY REPLACED ONE MODULE 13 MONTHS EARLIER FOR $720. THIS FAILURE MODE IS UNACCEPTABLE LEAVING THE CAR IN A DANGEROUS STATE WITHOUT DIRECTIONALS, IMPORTANT GAGES LIKE SPEEDOMETER AND FUEL , AND POSSIBLY NO AUTOMATIC LIGHTING CONTROLS. THE DESIGNED FAILURE MODE SHOULD BE SOLELY A SERVICE BLIND SPOT MONITORING SYSTEM LEAVING ALL OTHER SYSTEMS OPERATIONAL. CURRENTLY I AM TOLD THAT ALL PARTS REQUIRED TO FIX MY CAR ARE UNAVAILABLE. AN ADVANCED SAFETY SYSTEM THAT IS DANGEROUS WHEN IT FAILS IS NEITHER ADVANCED OR SAFE.

THE REAR SIDE DETECTION MODULES CORRODED DUE TO BAD PLACEMENT ON THE VEHICLE. THE MODULE IS DIRECTLY BEHIND THE REAR WHEEL WITHOUT ANY SHIELDING, SO WHEN THE SNOW AND SALT FROM THE WINTER CAME OFF THE TIRE, IT WOULD LAND DIRECTLY ON THE READ SIDE DETECTION MODULE CAUSING CORROSION. THERE ARE A TON OF FORUMS ONLINE SUCH AS HERE HTTPS://WWW.CARGURUS.COM/CARS/DISCUSSION-T54868_DS885696. CHEVY HAD THIS PROBLEM IN 2014.5-2016 MODEL BUT WON'T COVER IT EVEN THOUGH THEY CHANGED THE MODULES IN NEWER MODELS TO PROTECT AGAINST THE ELEMENTS BETTER. THEY KNOW THERE IS A PROBLEM BUT REFUSE TO FIX IT FOR OLDER MODELS.

SIDE DETECTION MODULE WENT OUT ON BOTH SIDE AFTER IT WAS IMPACTED BY RAIN. I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT THERE IS A NEW MODULE HOWEVER I WOULD HAVE TO PAY 1300.00 FOR IT BECAUSE IT IS SEALED UP BETTER AND LESS LIKELY TO RECEIVE WATER DAMAGE. I WAS ALSO TOLD THAT IF NOT FIXED THAT MY CAR WONT START AND I WOULD HAVE OTHER ELECTRICAL ISSUES. OTHER PEOPLE HAVE SAID THEY THEIR MODULE HAVE CAUGHT ON FIRE. BAD PART CHEVROLET THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED ASAP.

SIDE BLIND ZONE ALERT STOPPED WORKING DUE TO THE POOR DESIGN OF THE MODULES. THIS CAUSED MY GAS GAUGE AND ODOMETER TO STOP WORKING. IN ADDITION, THE FOLLOWING LIGHTS CAME ON AND SAID THEY NEEDED TO BE SERVICED: AIR BAGS, TIRES,THEFT SYSTEM, CHECK ENGINE. AFTER ALL OF THIS, MY CAR WOULDN'T START. I WAS LEFT STRANDED. THE FAULTY MODULES SCRAMBLED MY COMPUTER IN MY CAR. THE COST OF THIS REPAIR IS AROUND $1400 TO FIX, PLUS THE MODULES WILL FAIL AGAIN AND NEED TO BE REPLACED AGAIN. THE MODULES ARE A POOR DESIGN FROM GM. THIS SEEMS TO BE AN ONGOING ISSUE WITH THESE CARS. CURRENTLY, GM HASN'T BEEN HELD RESPONSIBLE TO FIX THE DESIGN OF THESE MODULES. NOT ONLY DO WE HAVE TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR OF THE FAULTY MODULES. WE PAID AND STILL PAY A HEFTY PRICE FOR THIS VEHICLE. I WISH I KNEW ABOUT THIS ISSUE BEFORE I PURCHASED THIS CAR. MY CAR WAS PARKED AND WHEN I TRIED TO START IT, IT WOULDN'T START. I FINALLY WAS ABLE TO START IT. AS I DROVE IT TO THE SHOP, I DIDN'T HAVE ANY SPEED ODOMETER, TURNING SIGNALS OR LIGHTS. THIS WAS VERY DANGEROUS DUE TO DRIVING ON A 4 LANE HIGHWAY IN A BUSY CITY. TO LOSE ALL GAUGES, LIGHTS, TURN SIGNALS AND TO HAVE OTHER NUMEROUS "CHECK" LIGHTS COME ON IS VERY UNSAFE. I COULD HAVE BEEN REAR ENDED.

LEFT REAR SIDE DETECTION MODULE AND RELATED WIRING HARNESS FAILED DUE TO CORROSION FROM EXPOSURE TO WATER AND WEATHER ELEMENTS DURING NORMAL OPERATION. PLACEMENT OF MODULE INSIDE THE REAR BUMPER CAUSED MOISTURE TO ACCUMULATE WITHIN MODULE AND ITS RELATED ELECTRICAL CONNECTORS. DURING FAILURE, WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, MODULE SENT ERRATIC SIGNALS TO OBC CAUSING PARTIAL SHUTDOWN OF KEY ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS INCLUDING TURN SIGNALS AND INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. THIS MODULE HAS A HIGH, PRE-MATURE FAILURE RATE, DUE TO EXPOSURE TO WEATHER ELEMENTS AND ROAD SALT IN NORTHERN STATES. CHEVROLET HAS DIFFICULTY KEEPING SUFFICIENT MODULES IN STOCK AT LOCAL DEALERS. ORDER OUT TIME FOR SUBJECT COMPONENTS IS 3-5 BUISNESS DAYS.

BLIND SPOT DETECTION SYSTEM BEGAN TO FAIL, INDICATED BY THE SIDE MIRROR INDICATORS REMAINING ON EVEN AFTER THE CAR WAS SHUT OFF. DEALER SERVICE CENTER DIAGNOSTIC TEST SHOWED THE BATTERY WAS OLD. THE PROBLEM PROGRESSED TO THE POINT WHERE THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER WOULD ALSO FAIL - ALL INSTRUMENTS (SPEEDOMETER, TACHOMETER, ETC.) WOULD GO DEAD, VIRTUALLY ALL WARNING LIGHTS (TRACTION CONTROL, ABS, AIR BAG, ETC.) WOULD GO ON, HEATING SYSTEM (INCLUDING BLOWER) WOULD GO DEAD AND TURN SIGNALS AND HAZARD LIGHT WOULD BE INOPERATIVE. ALL OF THIS WOULD HAPPEN WHILE DRIVING, WHETHER IN CITY TRAFFIC OR AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. ALTHOUGH THE MAIN OPERATION OF THE VEHICLE HAS NOT YET BEEN AFFECTED, THERE IS NO WAY TO SIGNAL OTHER DRIVERS OF A PROBLEM (NO HAZARD LIGHT OR TURN SIGNALS) IN THE EVENT OF A LARGER FAILURE. RESEARCH OF ONLINE CUSTOMER FORUMS SHOWS THAT THIS PROBLEM IS COMMON WITH THE LATEST GENERATION (2014 AND NEWER) IMPALA. THE BLIND SPOT DETECTION SYSTEM IS CONNECTED TO THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER AND THIS OCCURS RANDOMLY WHILE DRIVING.

TODAY I AM ADDING THAT WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY IN MODERATE RAIN DOING 55MPH, MY STABILITRAK LIGHT CAME ON, ABS LIGHT CAME ON AND I LOST POWER STEERING. I DID NOT LOSE CONTROL OF MY CAR, BUT IT COULD HAVE BEEN BAD. I CALLED CHEVY AS SOON AS I GOT HOME TO FILE A COMPLAINT. I WILL BE BRINGING IT TO THE DEALERSHIP TOMORROW AS I HAVE READ OTHER COMPLAINTS OF THIS HAPPENING AS WELL WITH THE NEXT THING TO GO IS THE CAR WON'T START. THIS SITUATION IS UNCALLED FOR IN A VEHICLE WITH 45,000 MILES AT A PRICE TAG OF $35,000, ESPECIALLY WHEN THE OTHER ISSUES STARTED HAPPENING AROUND D 38,000 MILES. BEFORE TODAY, WHEN I STARTED MY CAR THE SERVICE LIGHTS FOR FRONT CAMERA, PARK ASSIST, AND SIDE DETECTION ALL LIT UP. I DID NOT TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AT THAT POINT BECAUSE I HEARD IT WAS EXPENSIVE TO FIX NOW I HAVE TO AS THE SAFETY OF DRIVING IT IS SEVERELY UNSTABLE.

BLIND SPOT DETECTION SYSTEM BEGAN TO FAIL, INDICATED BY THE SIDE MIRROR INDICATORS REMAINING ON EVEN AFTER THE CAR WAS SHUT OFF. DEALER SERVICE CENTER DIAGNOSTIC TEST SHOWED A FAULTY LEFT SIDE DETECTION MODULE. THE PROBLEM PROGRESSED TO THE POINT WHERE THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER WOULD ALSO FAIL - ALL INSTRUMENTS (SPEEDOMETER, TACHOMETER, ETC.) WOULD GO DEAD, VIRTUALLY ALL WARNING LIGHTS (TRACTION CONTROL, ABS, AIR BAG, ETC.) WOULD GO ON, HEATING SYSTEM (INCLUDING BLOWER) WOULD GO DEAD AND TURN SIGNALS AND HAZARD LIGHT WOULD BE INOPERATIVE. ALL OF THIS WOULD HAPPEN WHILE DRIVING, WHETHER IN CITY TRAFFIC OR AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. ALTHOUGH THE MAIN OPERATION OF THE VEHICLE HAS NOT YET BEEN AFFECTED, THERE IS NO WAY TO SIGNAL OTHER DRIVERS OF A PROBLEM (NO HAZARD LIGHT OR TURN SIGNALS) IN THE EVENT OF A LARGER FAILURE. RESEARCH OF ONLINE CUSTOMER FORUMS SHOWS THAT THIS PROBLEM IS COMMON WITH THE LATEST GENERATION (2014 AND NEWER) IMPALA. REPLACING THE MODULES (AND IN SOME CASES, ALSO THE WIRING HARNESS, WHICH BECOMES CORRODED FROM THE WEATHER) SEEMS TO BE A SHORT TERM FIX AT BEST, AS THE DESIGN OF THE BLIND SPOT DETECTION SYSTEM EXPOSES THE SENSORS AND WIRING HARNESS TO ROAD SPRAY AND RAPID CORROSION DAMAGE. FURTHERMORE, THE BLIND SPOT DETECTION SYSTEM IS CONNECTED TO THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER IN A MANNER THAT EVENTUALLY RENDERS THEM INOPERATIVE AS WELL. THIS OCCURS RANDOMLY WHILE DRIVING.

WHEN MY SIDE DETECTION MONITORING SYSTEM FAILED A FEW MONTHS AGO I TOOK IT TO A LOCAL DEALER. THEY RESPONDED TELLING ME THAT, UNFORTUNATELY, THE DESIGN FOR THIS SENSOR MODULE/HARNESS IS COMPLETELY FLAWED. THE SENSORS ARE LOCATED IN THE REAR BUMPER, WITH PLASTIC HOUSING. THERE IS NO WEATHER PROTECTION, EVEN THOUGH THESE ARE DIRECTLY BEHIND THE TIRES AND ARE EXPOSED TO ALL WEATHER - PLUS I LIVE IN IL SO WE'RE TALKING RAIN, SNOW, SALT, ETC. IT'S TWO SENSORS AND THE HARNESS. I COULDN'T AFFORD THE $1200 REPAIR, SO I FIGURED I WOULD JUST HAVE TO DEAL WITH THE LOSS OF THE SAFETY FEATURE AND IGNORE THE WARNING LIGHT. LAST WEEK, ALL OF MY WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON - THEFT DETECTION, FRONT CAMERA, AIRBAG, STABILITRACK, ETC. MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS, TURN SIGNALS, LOCKS AND HEADLIGHTS WERE ALL GOING HAYWIRE, AND AT ONE POINT WHILE DRIVING ALL OF MY GAUGES WENT TO ZERO (NO SPEED LIMIT, RPM, GAS GAUGE, ANYTHING) AND MY HEAT WENT OUT, TURN SIGNALS STOPPED WORKING AND MY HEADLIGHTS WENT OUT. IMMEDIATELY TOOK IT TO ANOTHER DEALERSHIP HOPING THAT MAYBE MY BATTERY (FACTORY ORIGINAL)/WIRING MIGHT BE THE CAUSE. NO SUCH LUCK. AS IT TURNS OUT THE SIDE DETECTION MODULES ARE NOW CORRUPTING ALL SENSORS AND ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS INCLUDING MY AIR BAGS! THE DEALERSHIP CONFIRMED THAT THE SIDE DETECTION MODULES HAD FAILED AND WERE CAUSING THE CHAOS THAT IS OCCURRING WITH ALL OF MY OTHER WARNING SYSTEMS, AND THAT MY AIR BAGS NO LONGER WORKED. MY AIR BAGS DON'T WORK BECAUSE OF THIS, NEVERMIND THE EXTREME DANGER IN HAVING A SYSTEM GO HAYWIRE WHILE I'M DRIVING! I'M AT NEARLY 100,000 MILES SO I'M WELL PAST ANY WARRANTY THAT WOULD COVER THIS, BUT I HAVE BEEN READING FORUMS AND CARCOMPLAINTS AND IT TURNS OUT THAT THIS IS A REALLY COMMON ISSUE. THE COST OF THE DIAGNOSTICS, COST OF THE REPAIR, AND ANTICIPATED COSTS OF SUBSEQUENT REPAIRS IS RIDICULOUS CONSIDERING IT IS A KNOWN DESIGN FLAW.

WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH, MY SIDE DETECTION LIGHT REMAINED ON AND STAYED THAT WAY FOR A FEW DAYS THEN COMPLETELY STOPPED WORKING. I WAS STILL UNDER 36,000 BUT OVER 36 MONTHS. I MADE AN APPOINTMENT WITH THE DEALERSHIP BUT CANCELLED AFTER TALKING WITH MY FRIEND WHO SAID THE SAME THING HAPPENED TO HER DENALI AND IT COST HER $3000 TO FIX IT. A FEW MONTHS AGO, I WAS DRIVING AROUND 50 MPH, ALL THE SENSORS STARTED FLASHING ON MY DASH-PARKING ASSIST, BRAKES, SIDE DETECTION, FRONT CAMERA, ETC. THE GAUGES STOPPED WORKING, THE HEATER TURNED OFF AS DID THE RADIO AND FELT LIKE THE POWER WAS WAY DOWN. MY BLINKERS WEREN'T WORKING EITHER. I PULLED OVER AND TURNED THE CAR OFF TO TRY TO RESET IT AND IT DID NOT WORK. I FINISHED MY DRIVE TO WORK. WHEN RETURNING TO MY CAR, IT DID NOT REPLICATE THE SAME BEHAVIOR AS IN THE MORNING. NOW, MY LANE DEPARTURE AND FRONT CRASH DETECTION IS NOT WORKING. I HAVE READ MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE IN THE 2014 CHEVY IMPALA. I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN, ALONG WITH MY HUSBAND, A GM PRODUCT OWNER, GM HAS A PLANT 1 MILE FROM US AND THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT SHUTTING IT DOWN. IF THIS IS NOT SOMETHING GM LOOKS INTO RECALLING, I MAY MAKE THE SWITCH TO A DIFFERENT CAR COMPANY. I HAVE NOT YET TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER BUT SINCE MORE AND MORE THINGS KEEP BREAKING, I WILL BE SCHEDULING AN APPOINTMENT SOON AND LETTING GM KNOW EXACTLY HOW I FEEL ABOUT THIS. AFTER SPENDING $35,000 ON A VEHICLE, IT SHOULD NOT ACT LIKE THIS.

WHILE DRIVING MY CAR ON A MAIN STREET MOVING ALONG AT APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH THE CAR COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM AND MOTOR. THE CAR WOULD NOT RECOGNIZE THE FOB. THEREFORE, IT WOULD NOT RESTART. I PUT THE CAR IN PARK TO RESTART. THEREFORE, IT WAS STUCK IN PARK AND I COULD NOT MOVE THE CAR OUT OF THE LANE OF TRAFFIC. WE TRIED TO RE-SET THE SYSTEM BY DISCONNECTING THE BATTERY AND TAPPING THE BRAKES. THIS DID NOT WORK. AFTER MY HUSBAND HAD BROUGHT ME THE SECOND FOB FROM HOME THE CAR STILL WOULD NOT RECOGNIZE THE FOB. I WALKED AWAY FROM THE CAR TO RE-SET THE FOB. THE CAR STILL WOULD NOT START. AFTER BEING STRUCK IN FRIDAY AFTERNOON TRAFFIC FOR AN HOUR I CALLED A TOW TRUCK. MY HUSBAND TRIED THE CAR AGAIN AND IT STARTED. I DROVE THE CAR HOME. THE VERY NEXT DAY I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY COULD NOT FIND ANY PROBLEMS. TWO WEEKS LATER THE CAR BEGAN NOT RECOGNIZING THE FOB AGAIN. THE DEALERSHIP CANNOT FIND THE PROBLEM. I DO NOT WANT TO SEE ANY OTHERS GET HURT FROM THIS PROBLEM.

RIGHT FRONT HEAD LIGHT LOW BEAM WIRE HARNESS BURNS COMPLETELY UP. I ALSO FOUND THE SAME SITUATION ON 3 OTHER 2014 IMPALA LIMITED WHILE LOOKING FOR A REPLACEMENT HARNESS IN TWO DIFFERENT SALVAGE YARDS. I THINK THIS IS SIGNIFICANT.

POWER STEERING WAS LOST, STABILITY LIGHT CAME ON - WAS TOLD THIS WAS DUE TO EROSION - HAD REPAIRED AT MY COST - EXTENDED WARRANTY WOULD NOT COVER AS TECHICIAN STATED MY FAULT ALTHOUGH APPARENTLY THIS AREA IS NOT VISIBLE DURING NORMAL SERVICE. NOW THE CAR TWICE HAS NOT STARTED AT ALL - ALL ELECTRONIC SENSORS GO DEAD. HAVE TAKEN TO CHEVROLET DEALER AND THEY ARE UNABLE TO DETERMINED WHAT IS WRONG. AT LEAST EVERY OTHER TIME I TURN ON CAR, THE STABILITY LIGHT OR STEERING LIGHT COME ON, AS WELL AS THE PARK ASSIST LIGHT. I WAIT FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES OR SO, TRY AGAIN, AND THEY MAY OR MAY NOT GO OFF. 2 - THE REAR VIEW MIRROR FELL OFF DURING THE FIRST MONTH I PURCHASED, SO IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY AND THEY "RE-GLUED) IT SEVERAL TIMES - FINALLY IT WAS RECALLED, AND REPLACED ABOUT 15 MONTHS AGO, NOW THE MIRROR IS DOING THE SAME THING AGAIN. 3- LAST IS THE PILLAR TRIM - IT PEELED AND I HAD TO HAVE REPLACED AT MY COST - THIS SHOULD NOT HAVE OCCURRED. I FEAR I HAVE A LEMON, BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY I AM NOT RECEIVING THE SERVICE NECESSARY FROM CHEVROLET DEALER - I HAVE MAINTAINED THE SERVICE ON MY CAR THROUGH THE DEALER, BUT SO MANY UNANSWERED CONCERNS LEAVES ME AT RISK FOR ACCIDENT SHOULD CAR JUST STOP!

TOOK VEHICLE TO A CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP BELIEVING IT WAS A RECALL DUE TO RESEARCH ONLINE, SERVICE DEPARTMENT STATED THE RECALL WAS FIXED SO THEY REPROGRAMMED IT. UPON LEAVING THE DEALERSHIP, THE BRAKES WERE GRINDING AND ALL THE LIGHTS CAME BACK ON. TOOK BACK TO SERVICE AND IT'S TAKEN 3 DAYS FOR THEM TO TRY AND FIGURE OUT WHAT IS WRONG. THEY'VE NOW DECIDED IT NEEDS A NEW STEERING GEAR. I'VE RESEARCHED OTHER 2014 IMPALAS HAVING A RECALL ON STEERING GEARS BUT THIS VEHICLE IS NOT LISTED? HOW IS THAT? I FEEL IT NEEDS TO BE RECALLED AND FIXED SINCE THERE'S BEEN PREVIOUS RECALLS REGARDING THE WHOLE ELECTRICAL STEERING SYSTEM, STEERING MODULES, AND STEERING GEARS.

ELECTRICAL FAILURES. I EXPERIENCED A FAILURE IN MY STABILITRAK, POWER STEERING AND ABS SYSTEM ON MY 2014 CHEVY IMPALA 2LT. THIS CAUSED MY VEHICLE TO LOSE POWER STEERING, AND ABS BRAKE CONTROL, WHICH WHILE DRIVING ON A RAINY SURFACE (IN MA TODAY 3/2 THE WEATHER WAS INSANE) WAS NOT REASSURING. I HAVE READ NUMEROUS REPORTS OF OTHER PEOPLE EXPERIENCING THIS ISSUE AS WELL. CHEVY SEEMS TO HAVE ARE RECALL OPEN FOR POWER STEERING, BUT MY VIN SUPPOSEDLY IS NOT IMPACTED DESPITE ME HAVING A POWER STEERING FAILURE. MANY, MANY ELECTRICAL ISSUES WITH THIS CAR HAVE BEEN REPORTED, AND YET CHEVY DOES NOTHING TO CORRECT THIS CLEAR SAFETY CONCERN. THANKFULLY THE POWER STEERING SYSTEM ONLY PARTIALLY REDUCED ITSELF, AND DIDN'T COMPLETELY FAIL OR ELSE WHO KNOWS WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED.

WHEN DRIVING ON THE STREET MORE INDICATOR WARNINGS CAME ON: AIRBAG, TRACTION CONTROL, PARKING BRAKE, ETC.; THE A/C CAME ON BY ITSELF; THE HEADLIGHTS, HEATER, AND TURN SIGNALS STOPPED WORKING. STOPPED THE CAR AND SHUT IT OFF FOR ABOUT AN HOUR. AFTER STARTING IT WITH THE KEY AND RUNNING IT FOR ABOUT 3 MINUTES, IT SHUT ITSELF OFF. ONCE STARTED AGAIN, WOULD ONLY MOVE ABOUT A FOOT AND THEN STOPPED SHARPLY, LIKE THE BRAKES HAD BEEN SLAMMED ON. DID THIS SEVERAL TIMES. PARKED IT AGAIN AND HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALER.

I'VE HAD AN ISSUE WITH MY 2014 CHEVY IMPALA LTZ GETTING LOCKED UP WHEN TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL. THIS STARTED A FEW MONTHS AGO, I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP BUT THEY WERE UNABLE TO RECREATE THE PROBLEM. THE FIRST INCIDENT OCCURED 09/2017, I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY GOING 60 MPH, UPON SWITCHING LANES IT FELT LIKE THE STEERING WHEEL JAMMED AND LOCKED FOR A SECOND AND THE ELECTRICAL POWER WENT OUT ON THE RADIO AND DASH. THE ALERTS THEN SAID "POWER STEERING DRIVE WITH CARE' & "FRONT CAMERA' OR SOMETHING TO THAT EFFECT. THIS HAS HAPPENED VARIOUS TIMES SINCE ON CITY STREETS, ANOTHER MESSAGE I'VE SEEN HAS SAID SOMETHING ABOUT STABILITRAK. THE MOST RECENT EPISODE OCCURED ON 12/25/2017. I WAS DRIVING ON A CITY STREET AND TURNED RIGHT AND THE STEERING WHEEL JAMMED AND THE RADIO WENT OUT AND THE SAME MESSAGES CAME UP, I TOOK A VIDEO THIS TIME SO THAT THE DEALERSHIP CAN SEE WHAT THE ISSUE IS. I FOUND THAT THERE IS A RECALL ON OTHER 2014 CHEVY IMPALAS FOR SIMILAR ISSUES WITH POWER STEERING BUT WHEN SEARCHING UNDER MY VIN NUMBER THERE IS NO RECALL ON MY CAR BUT I FEEL AS THOUGH THIS IS A MISTAKE AND MY CAR SHOULD BE RECALLED FOR THIS ISSUE. THIS IS A BIG SAFETY ISSUE AND A BIG CONCERN TO ME AS I HAVE TWO SMALL CHILDREN AND ALMOST CRASHED WHILE ON THE FREEWAY DUE TO THIS ISSUE. LUCKILY THE OTHER TIMES THIS HAS OCCURED I WAS ON CITY STREETS NOT DRIVING AT A HIGH SPEED BUT REGARDLESS IT IS STILL A SAFETY HAZARD.

I WAS TRAVELING IN A STRAIGHT LINE WHEN THE "STABILITRACT" & "ENGINE POWER BEING REDUCED" INFORMATION POPPED UP. THE CAR WOULD NOT GO OVER 30 MPH. THIS CAUSED ME TO HAVE TO PULL OVER AND NEARLY CAUSED AN ACCIDENT DUE TO THE SLOW NATURE OF THE VEHICLE, EVEN WITH THE EMERGENCY FLASHERS ON. THIS IS SEVERAL INCIDENTS WITH THIS PARTICULAR CAR, HAVING ELECTRONIC FAILURE. THE WORST OF IT WAS WHEN THE COLLISION SENSOR WAS AFFECTED BY A LEAK IN THE CAR AFTER HAVING TO HAVE THE WINDSHIELD REPLACED DUE TO THE REAR VIEW MIRROR FALLING OFF. THAT INCIDENT CAUSED THE CAR TO SLAM ON IT'S BREAKS DUE AN ELECTRICAL ERROR. THIS CAR HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP FOR NUMEROUS ELECTRICAL ISSUES. CHEVROLET HAS REFUSED TO DO ANYTHING BUT THE BARE MINIMUM TO GET THE CAR BACK ON THE ROAD OBVIOUSLY NOT FIXING THE ROOT OF THE PROBLEM, AS THIS IS ONCE AGAIN AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE.

2014 CHEVROLET IMPALA NOT SATISFIED WITH HOW GM HANDLED IGNITION RECALL *CN THE CONSUMER STATED GM'S FIX, WAS NOT ADEQUATE.*JB

HORN IS VERY DIFFICULT TO ACTIVATE. IT IS VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO USE THUMBS TO ACTIVATE WHILE KEEPING HANDS ON THE STEERING WHEEL. I MUST TAKE MY HAND OFF THE WHEEL AND USE THE PALM OF MY HAND TO EXERT ENOUGH PRESSURE TO ACTIVATE THE HORN, WHICH WOULD BE DANGEROUS WHEN I'M TRYING TO WARN ANOTHER DRIVER OR PEDESTRIAN OF AN EMERGENCY SITUATION SUCH AS AN IMPENDING COLLISION. AT MY FIRST SERVICE I REPORTED THIS TO MY DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT ALL THE 2014 IMPALAS ARE LIKE THIS. *TR

I STARTED NOTICING A VERY BAD ODOR OF MOLD AND MILDEW COMING FROM THE A/C VENTS. I TOOK THE CAR INTO THE DEALER I PURCHASED IN EARLY 2014. THE DEALER SAID THEY LOOKED AT IT AND COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. AFTER I TOOK IT IN AGAIN FOR A BAD ODOR, THEY SAID THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE REAR TAIL LIGHTS LETTING WATER IN THE TRUNK. A COUPLE MONTHS LATER I CHECKED THE TRUNK AND THE CARPET WAS ALL WET, WHEN I CHECKED THE SPARE TIRE COMPARTMENT IT WAS 2 INCHES OF WATER. I STARTED CHECKING EVERYWHERE AND FOUND THE CARPET IN THE FRONT DRIVER SEAT VERY WET. I TOOK THE CAR IN AGAIN THIS TIME I KNEW IT WAS GOING TO BE A BIG PROBLEM TO FIX, THE CAR WAS NOW SMELLING SO BAD WITH MILDEW AND MOLD EVEN THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN COULD HARDLY STAND TO SIT IN IT AT ALL. THEY HAVE TRIED TO CHANGE THE UNDERLAY, AND IT STILL SMELLS BAD. THE DEALER SAYS THEY HAD A GM SERVICE SPECIALIST COME TO THE DEALER TO LOOK AT IT. THEY HAVE NO SOLUTION TO FIX THE WATER LEAKING OR TO GET THE MOLD OUT OF THE CAR. IT HAS NOW BEEN 6 WEEKS AND I DO NOT HAVE MY CAR!! I ASKED THE DEALER TO PLEASE LET ME OUT OF MY LEASE SO I CAN GO GET A CAR THAT ACTUALLY I CAN USE. THE DEALER IS REFUSING TO OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE, AND EITHER IS GM WHEN I CALL CUSTOMER SUPPORT. I AM NOW HIRING AN ATTORNEY AND PLANNING ON TAKING THIS TO THE DEALER AND GM, AS THIS IS AN MAJOR HEALTH CONCERN AT THE VERY LEAST TO MY FAMILY. *TR

I'VE OWNED MY VEHICLE FOR OVER A YEAR AND ON 3 OCCASIONS THE EMERGENCY PARKING BRAKE WOULD BE APPLIED ON ITS OWN AFTER I WOULD TURN OFF THE VEHICLE. *TR

THIS WAS A RENTAL CAR THAT I PICKED UP ON SUNDAY, JUNE 22ND FROM NATIONAL CAR RENTAL AT THE REAGAN NATIONAL AIRPORT. I WAS DRIVING AROUND 35 MPH ON A TWO LANE ROAD NEAR STAFFORD, VA. AT 4:20 PM ON THE 25TH WHEN THE ENTIRE CAR SHUT OFF. I SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL TO TRY AND START IT, BUT NO LUCK. I APPLIED HEAVY PRESSURE ON THE NOW NON POWERED BRAKES AND CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP. I SHIFTED INTO PARK AND STARTED THE CAR. NO FURTHER INCIDENT AND TURNED THE CAR IN ON THE 26TH AND INFORMED THEM OF THE INCIDENT. THEY MARKED THE CAR SO IT WOULD NOT BE PUT BACK INTO THE FLEET UNTIL REPAIRED. *TR

AS A RENTAL VEHICLE TO USE WHILE WARRANTY REPAIRS WHERE BEING PERFORMED ON MY TRAVERSE; I HAD BEEN RENTED A 2014 IMPALA. TO MY SURPRISE THE FOLLOWING MORNING I CAME TO A STOP AND THE ENGINE QUITE, THERE WAS A CLEAR LANE WITHIN SITE THAT I FIGURED I COULD PUSH THE DEAD VEHICLE TO. I OPENED THE DOOR, WHILE KEEPING MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE AND POSITIONED MYSELF IN THE DOOR FRAME TO PUSH. THEN I REMOVED MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE TO REACH IN AND PLACE IT INTO NEUTRAL AND START PUSHING. TO MY SURPRISE THE VEHICLE STARTED BY ITS SELF AND ACCELERATED AWAY FROM ME, THE DOOR FRAME ALMOST KNOCKING ME DOWN, YET LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO CATCH THE CAR AND GET BACK TO THE BRAKE BEFORE THE CAR CRASHED. I CAME TO FIND OUT THAT THIS WAS AN ECONOMIC FEATURE ON THAT VEHICLE. I FEEL GREAT CONCERN THAT THIS CAR STARTED WHEN MY SEAT BELT HAD BEEN REMOVED AND DOOR OPENED, WOULD THEY HAVE AT LEAST CONSIDERED SOME SORT OF PRECAUTION FROM THIS OCCURRING. PLEASE TAKE THIS SERIOUS, I KNOW THAT I WAS NOT ADVISED OF THIS FEATURE, AND HAD I NOT CAUGHT THE CAR OR GOTTEN KNOCKED DOWN AND RUN OVER, THE OUTCOME WOULD HAVE BEEN MUCH MORE SERIOUS. *TR

ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS MY 2014 IMPALA INDICATED IMMINENT CRASH BY FLASHING A RED LIGHT FROM DASH INTO THE FRONT WINDSHIELD AND SOUNDING AN ALARM WITH 3 OR 4 BEEPS. THE FIRST COUPLE OF TIMES I THOUGHT MAYBE THE SENSOR WAS PICKING UP A SHADOW OR PARKED CAR BUT AS IT HAPPENED A FEW MORE TIMES I CAME TO THE REALIZATION THAT IT WAS NOT OPERATING CORRECTLY. ON CLEAR SUNNY DAYS WITH NO CARS IN FRONT OF ME IT BEGAN TO OCCUR. I'VE OWNED THE CAR FOR 2 MONTHS AND IT HAS PROBABLY HAPPENED 15 TO 20 TIMES. AFTER DOING A LITTLE RESEARCH IT SOUNDS LIKE I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE IN THE COUNTRY TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM AND IN FACT IF MY CAR WAS EQUIPPED WITH AUTOMATIC BRAKING FUNCTION I'M CONFIDENT THAT IT WOULD HAVE APPLIED THE BRAKES AND CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. *TR

I FIND MY LINK VERY DIFFICULT TO USE AS COMPARE TO MY 2011 BUICK REGAL CONTROL KNOB VS TOUCH SCREEN. THE IPOD I USE IN THE BUICK OR THE USB DRIVE WAS EASIER TO USE AND NAVIGATE. I SPOKEN TO APPLE AND MICROSOFT TECHS ABOUT CREATING PLAYLISTS BUT THE FUNCTION DOES NOT WORK IN MY IMPALA. THIS IS A PROBLEM IN 2014 CHEVROLET IMPALA AND THE MY LINK SYSTEM THAT NEED CORRECTION. THE I TUNE AND MEDIA PLAYER IS INCOMPATIBLE WITH MYLINK AND GM SHOULD PROVIDE SOFTWARE/APP THAT WILL WORK. TO CHANGE A SELECTION IN MYLINK CAN CAUSE DISTRACTED DRIVING. *TR

BATTERY LEAKED DOWN THE FRAME AND WAS EATING THE 2 TRANY COOLER ALUMINUM LINES. AUTONATION CHEVROLET SUPERSTITION SPRINGS IN MESA, AZ PUT A NEW BATTERY AND 2 NEW TRANY COOLER LINES ON, BUT AFTER THE 4TH ATTEMPT CAN NOT GET ALL OF THE ACID CLEANED UP. ENGINE CRADLE STILL HAS NO PAINT IN SPOTS AND ACID STILL SHOWING ON SPOTS. AFTER A DAY OF RAIN. WENT OUT TO THE CAR THE NEXT DAY AND WHEN I OPENED UP THE DRIVERS DOOR THERE WAS A VERY BAD ODOR. ALMOST WANTED TO THROW UP. AFTER LOOKING ALL OVER THE CAR FOUND 2" OF WATER WERE THE SPARE TIRE IS AND ALL OF THE CARPET WET IN THE TRUNK. TOOK IT TO AUTONATION CHEVROLET SUPERSTITION SPRINGS IN MESA, AZ. THEY HAD IT FOR 2 WEEKS AND THEY DETERMINED I DID NOT HAVE THE TRUNK CLOSED ALL THE WAY. THIS TRUNK WILL NOT STAY DOWN. WHAT I MEAN IS THE SPRING IS SO GOOD IT'S ETHER CLOSED ALL THE WAY OR OPEN ALL THE WAY. AFTER THAT AND SOME RESEARCH I FOUND GM HAS PUT OUT A #PI1133 TRUNK WATER LEAK. THE SEAL AROUND THE REAR TAIL LIGHT LEAKS WATER INTO THE TRUNK. SO I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER AND HAD TO TELL THEM IT WAS NOT ME LEAVING THE TRUNK OPENED. *TR
