2010 CHEVROLET IMPALA Complaints

2ND AIR INJECTION CHECK & SHUT OFF VALVE HAS FAILED FOR THE 3RD TIME ON THIS VEHICLE. I CONTACTED A FRIEND OF MINE AT GM AND A GLOBAL TECHNICAL SPECIALIST IN THE EXHAUST MANIFOLDS/HEAT SHIELDS/SAI DIVISION OF THE GENERAL MOTORS GLOBAL PROPULSION SYSTEMS STATED THAT THERE WAS A CORROSION DURABILITY CONCERN WITH THIS PART THAT RESULTED IN ELEVATED WARRANTY. THERE IS NOW A IMPROVED SERVICE PN AVAILABLE THAT REPLACES THE PN THAT HAVE BEEN USED IN MY VEHICLE. I FEEL THAT GM SHOULD RECALL THESE BAD PARTS AND REFUND US FOR THEM. EACH TIME THIS PART NEEDS TO BE REPLACED THE COST IS OVER $400 TO ME. MY FIRST REPLACEMENT PART WENT ON 1-30-13 AT 46737 MILES. THE 2ND REPLACEMENT PART WENT ON 7-8-14 AT 71368 MILES. NOW THE 3RD REPLACEMENT PART NEEDS TO GO ON AT 115429 MILES. THE 1ST REPLACEMENT PART COST ME $567 TO REPLACE AT THE DEALERSHIP. THE 2ND REPLACEMENT PART COST ME $478 TO REPLACE AT AN INDEPENDENT SHOP. IT WILL COST ME THE SAME OR A LITTLE MORE TO GET THIS REPLACED FOR THE 3RD TIME. IS THERE ANYTHING THAT YOU CAN DO TO HELP ME?

I HAVE ALREADY COMPLAINED ABOUT THE SERVICE AIR BAG LIGHT COMING ON, MY COMPLAINT NUMBER IS 11023868. YOU HAVE NOT CONTACTED ME ABOUT THIS, I FEEL LIKE YOU JUST PUT IT ON THE BACK BURNER! I AM NOT HAPPY ABOUT THIS! I WAS FINALLY ABLE TO GET A PICTURE OF IT, PLEASE FIX THIS! THIS PICTURE WAS TAKEN THIS MORNING ON 10/01/2017, MY CAR SHOULD BE ON YOUR RECALL LIST!!!!! INSTEAD OF IGNORING ME THIS TIME PLEASE CONTACT ME, I AM FEELING VERY FRUSTRATED!

MY CHEVY IMPALA WHEN IN MOTION HAS SIGNALS FOR SERVICE STABILITRAC, THE CHECK ENGINE COMES ON AND THE A MESSAGE THAT SAYS REDUCED ENGINE POWER SHOWS UP. IT SEEMS LIKE ALOT OF IMPALA OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING THIS AND SOMETHING SHOULD BE DONE! THE STABILITACK GOES OFF AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGTS STAYS ON BUT USUALLY GOES OFF, AND THEN A FEW DAYS LATER IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN.

THE SERVICE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON BUT YOU CLAIM MY VIN NUMBER IS NOT UNDER RECALL! THIS SHOULD BE LOOKED INTO! IT CAME ON WHEN I STARTED IT AND STAYED ON UNTIL I WAS ON MY WAY HOME FROM WORK THEN IT DISAPPEARED. I ALSO HAVE A BREAK THAT IS GRINDING EVEN AFTER IT HAS HAD NEW ROTORS, BRAKE PADS AND THE CALIPER CHANGED. IT GRINDS CONTINUOUSLY. I AM NOT HAPPY AT ALL! PLEASE CHECK INTO THESE MATTERS! I BELIEVE MY CAR SHOULD BE ON YOUR RECALL LIST FOR THESE ISSUES!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CHEVROLET IMPALA. WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, THE "ENGINE POWER REDUCED" AND "SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL" WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL POSITION SENSOR FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. A DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND PROVIDED THE NUMBER TO NHTSA. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 108,000.

WHEN STARTING CAR GETTING ISSUE STATING SERVICE STABILITRAK...SOMETIMES THE CAR IS VERY LIGHT WHEN TRYING TO START UP. THERE ARE TIMES WHERE I AM TURNING MY CAR ON AND IT SEEMS THE ELECTRIC HAS RESET AND ALL CONTROLS AND RADIO ARE NOW RESET. I AM GETTING ISSUES

AIR BAG SENSOR HAS BEEN TRIPPED FOR THE PAST 7 MONTHS, I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS RECALL, AND IT LOOKS LIKE THE WIRING HARNESS MIGHT BE THE ONLY THING THAT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. HOWEVER, WHENEVER, I PUT IN MY VIN NUMBER, THERE AREN'T ANY RECALLS FOR THIS. ALSO, I HAVE RECEIVED A LETTER ABOUT THE GAS SENSOR POSSIBLY BEING BAD, HOWEVER, WHEN I TOOK IT INTO A CHEVY DEALER TO HAVE IT FIXED, THEY REFUSED TO. THEY TOLD ME THAT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WASN'T ON, AND THAT I HAD TO WAIT UNTIL IT FAILED BEFORE THEY WOULD FIX IT! FAILURE OF THIS SENSOR MEANS, IT COULD FAIL IN AN INTERSECTION, OR WHILE I AM PASSING SOMEONE, OR WHATEVER, THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN!!! I AM VERY UNHAPPY THAT THEY WOULDN'T FIX IT. NOW, MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON, HOWEVER, IT IS BECAUSE ANOTHER SENSOR IS BAD! THE EVC SENSOR NOW HAS TO BE FIXED. THE AIRBAG SENSOR WAS TRIPPED WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE HWY AT 70 MPH ON A WARM DAY OF 80 F OR SO. THE EVC SENSOR TRIPPED OVERNIGHT WHEN I STARTED THE CAR IN THE MORNING. THE GAS PEDAL SENSOR HAS BEEN A PROBLEM FOR 3 YEARS BECAUSE CHEVY DEALERS REFUSE TO FIX IT. THESE CONCERNS ARE IN ADDITION TO THE OTHER MECHANICAL FIXES THAT I HAVE HAD TO DO ON A CAR THAT HAS LESS THAN 87,000 MILES ON IT! I AM FEELING LIKE I HAVE A LEMON OF A CAR AND THAT THIS IMPALA IS THE WORST CAR ON THE MARKET. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL CHEVY PRODUCTS, AND HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED PROBLEMS LIKE THIS. WHAT HAPPENED TO THE GREAT PRODUCTS THAT CHEVY ONCE PRODUCED???

LIGHT. FOR SERVICE AIRBAG ON AND UPON SRARTING VEHICLE AND PERIODICALLY WHILE DRIVING A MESSAGE ALSO APPEARS ON DASH INFORMATION AREA STATING SERVICE AIRBAG. CONCERNED IF IT'S SAFE BUT DEALER SAID NO RECALL AT THIS TIME AND IT "HAPPENS". STILL OCCURRING.

#1 EVERY TIME I MOVE THE DRIVERS SEAT MY AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON SAYING THAT THE AIRBAG IS DISABLED. #2 THE CAR'S TRACTION WILL ACT LIKE I'M ON ICE (EVEN ON A HOT 90 DEGREE JULY DAY). THE TRACTION LIGHT COMES ON AND THE ENGINE WILL GEAR DOWN, TO THE DEGREE OF LOSS OF ENGINE POWER, POWER STEERING, AND POWER BRAKING. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES WHILE DRIVING LONG DISTANCES ON THE HIGHWAYS I FOUND RECALLS PENDING FOR THESE PROBLEMS AND MY VIN # IS NOT ON THE LIST. WELL I'M TELLING YOU NOW THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND VERY SCARY. SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET INJURED OR KILLED!!
