2015 CHEVROLET IMPALA Complaints

OWNERS OF 2014-2015 IMPALAS ARE NOT ABLE TO GET THIS PART CALL THE ROCKER ARM CONTROL VALVE. THEY NO LONGER MAKE THIS PART TO FIX THE CARS. SO PEOPLE WHO OWN THOSE MODEL CARS ARE FORCED TO TRADE IN CARS THAT THEIR STILL PAYING CAR NOTES ON. GMC HAS NOT SPOKE ABOUT THIS MATTER AND LEFT THEIR CUSTOMERS STUCK OUT WITHOUT WARNING. WE ARE FORCED TO GO BACK INTO LONG TERM CAR NOTES WHEN HALF OF THE PEOPLE ALMOST FINISHED PAYING OFF THEIR NOTE. AND OTHERS HAVE PAID OFF THEIR CAR THAT'S 5 YEARS OLD THAT THEY CAN NO LONGER BUY. IT'S VERY SAID .

SIDE BLIND SPOT DETECTION FAILURE, BURNING WIRE SMELL BEFORE FAILURE. TWO DAYS LATER RIGHT SIDE MIRROR STARTS BLINKING FOR NO REASON AND THEN STOPS, LEFT SIDE DOES NOTHING STILL

GOING DOWN THE ROAD I HAD A STEERING WITH CARE LIGHT POP UP. AND I HAD TROUBLE CONTROLLING THE VEHICLE. AFTER TURNING THE VEHICLE OFF FOR A COUPLE MINUTES THERE IS NOT PROBLEM. CURRENTLY I AM TERRIFIED OF DRIVING THE VEHICLE IN THE SENSE OF LOOSING CONTROL OR EVEN MY LIFE.

THE PASSENGER SIDE BLIND ZONE INDICATOR LIGHT IN THE MIRROR IS MALFUNCTIONING. EVEN WHEN THE VEHICLE IS OFF THE THE LIGHT IS FLICKERING ON AND OFF. I HAD THIS EXACT SAME PROBLEM OCCUR WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS UNDER WARRANTY AND WAS REPLACED. I EVEN ASKED IF THERE WAS A WAY TO ASSURE THAT THIS WASN'T GOING TO HAPPEN AGAIN. THE DEALER TOLD ME THAT IT WOULDN'T, BEHOLD IT'S BACK BUT NOW MY VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY. NOT HAPPY AND CONCERNED THAT THIS ISSUE MAY CAUSE A ELECTRICAL FIRE WHILE IT IS PARKED IN MY GARAGE OR HAVE A ISSUE WHILE DRIVING WITH MY FAMILY.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN INTERSTATE STEERING ASSIST DISABLED ALARM CAME ON. VEHICLE BASICALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO STEER !! TOOK EXTREME AMOUNT OF EFFORT TO TURN WHEEL AT ALL. WAY BEYOND WHAT A NORMAL NON ELECTRIC STEERING CAR WOULD TAKE WITH POWER STEERING OUT. VERY DANGEROUS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. MANAGED TO GET CAR OFF ROAD WITHOUT KILLING MYSELF OR ANYONE ELSE. TOWED TO DEALERSHIP. STEERING GONE. $3100 TO REPLACE. RIDICULOUS FOR A 4 YEAR OLD CAR.

BLIND SPOT WARNING SYSTEM MODULE SENSOR 23424941 ISSUE I JUST HAD MY REAR BUMPER REPLACED BY THE AUTO BODY SHOP. WHEN THEY WENT TO PULL BOTH MODULES OUT AND PLACE THEM INTO THE NEW BUMPER, BOTH OF THEM WOULD NOT FIT DUE TO A CORNER OF THE MODULES EXPANDING FROM CORROSION FROM INSIDE THE MODULE. THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THESE. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR THE REPLACEMENTS FROM GM.

SERVICE SIDE DETECTION SENSORS. I OWN A CHEVY CRUSE,CHEVY IMPALA,AND A GMC ACADIA AND ALL 3 OF THESE CARS HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. WATER,SALT AND DIRT GET INSIDE OF THESE SENSORS AND THEY SHORT OUT. ON THE IMPALA THEY SHORTED OUT AND I COULD NOT START THE CAR THE NEXT DAY. THE BATTERY DIED.WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY DISCONNECTED THEM TILL THE PARTS CAME IN. STILL WAITING FOR THE PARTS. I WAS TOLD THAT THIS WILL ONLY HAPPEN AGAIN THERE IS NO PERMANENT FIX. THIS IS A $1400 REPAIR. NOT HAPPY!

I HAVE A CHEVY IMPALA 2015 WITH 1401K MILES. I AM EXPERIENCING GM BULLETIN N172097060 SIDE BLIND ZONE ALERT MODULE WATER INTRUSION ISSUE. I WAS TOLD BY BOTH THE DEALER (MACMULKIN CHEVROLET IN NASHUA) AND GM THAT MY ISSUE IS NOT COVERED DUE TO THE FACT THAT MY CAR HAS EXCEEDED THE 80K MILES. I TOLD THEM THAT I DID NOT RECEIVE THE NOTICE UNTIL MY CAR WELL EXCEEDED THE 80K MILEAGE. THE PROBLEM IS GETTING EXTREMELY WORSE. IT'S EFFECTING THE WHOLE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM OF THE CAR. THE CAR'S INSTRUMENT PANEL IS FLASHING ALL OF THE SENSOR ALERTS INTERMITTENTLY AND MY CAR WILL NOT START UNTIL I HAVE IT TOWED TO A MECHANIC AND THEY CLEAR THE FAULTS. THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE.

"SIDE AIRBAG WARNING SYSTEM" INDICATION. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THE OBJECT DETECTION MODULE AND WIRE HARNESS HAD FAILED DUE TO CORROSION AND IT WOULD NOT BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. I RESEARCHED THIS ISSUE AND FOUND THAT THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE FOR GM VEHICLES. THE MODULES ARE LOCATED IN A POSITION THAT HAS NO PROTECTION FROM THE ELEMENTS. TO MAKE IT WORSE, THE MODULE ACTUALLY HAS A VENT THAT ALLOWS MOISTURE TO INFILTRATE THE MODULE. THIS IS A DESIGN FLAW THAT GM IS WELL AWARE OF. GM ISSUED A LETTER TO OWNERS OF EFFECTED VEHICLES BUT IF YOU DIDN'T GET A LETTER YOU ARE OUT OF LUCK. THE LETTER IS SPECIFIC ABOUT MOISTURE INFILTRATION OF THE MODULE AND OFFERS AN UPGRADED KIT TO FIX THE ISSUE. THE DEALERS HAVE NO IDEA THIS LETTER EXISTS BECAUSE IT'S TECHNICALLY NOT A RECALL. IN A NUTSHELL, GM IS AWARE THIS SAFETY ISSUE EXISTS IN THEIR VEHICLES BUT ARE DOING THEIR BEST TO AVOID DOING THE RIGHT THING AND REPAIR UNDER A RECALL. TO ADD INSULT TO INJURY, THIS IS THE 3RD MODULE THAT HAS GONE BAD. EACH REPLACEMENT IS $983.00. I'M BUYING A TOYOTA! GM CARS ARE AWFUL AND THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE IS WORSE!
