WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE GOING ABOUT 70MPH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT FLASHES ON GOES OFF THEN POPS BACK ON. MESSAGE COMES ON SAYING REDUCING ENGINE POWER THEN TRACTION CONTROL SERVICE LIGHTS COMES ON AND STAYS ON ALL WHILE I'M LOSING POWER TRYING TO GET OVER TO SAFETY I HAVE MY FOOT ON THE GAS PEDAL BUT NO POWER AT ALL PUT MY FLASHERS ON LUCKY CHP SEEN ME AND HELPED ME TO THE SHOULDER.CALL AAA WHILE WAITING I START THE CAR UP PRESS ON THE PEDAL I HAVE POWER.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CHEVROLET IMPALA. WHILE DRIVING AT 55 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING AND THE STEERING WAS DIFFICULT TO TURN. THE FAILURE RECURRED SEVERAL TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER, BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 70,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CHEVROLET IMPALA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE TRUNK LOCKED AND WAS UNABLE TO BE OPENED. WHEN THE FAILURE OCCURRED, THE TURN SIGNALS ALSO FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO STATED THAT THE 12 VOLT RELAY TO THE TRUNK RELEASE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REAR SEAT WOULD NOT GO DOWN AND THERE WAS NO KEY ENTRY FOR THE TRUNK. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 90,000. UPDATED 7/16/15*CN

ON OR ABOUT MAY 17, 2015, I RECEIVED NOTICE FROM THE CHEVROLET DIVISION OF GENERAL MOTORS THAT MY VEHICLE "MAY HAVE A BROKEN SOLDER CONNECTION WITHIN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL POSITION (APP) SENSOR. THIS CONDITION MAY RESULT IN REDUCED ENGINE POWER AND LOSS OF TRACTION CONTROL ASSIST." ACCORDING TO THEM, I WILL KNOW WHEN MY INFORMATION CENTER DISPLAYS THE WARNING AND THEN THEY WILL BE WILLING TO CORRECT THEIR POOR WORKMANSHIP, BUT NOT UNTIL THAT TIME. GM GOES ON TO INFORM ME THAT I MAY BE WITHOUT MY CAR FOR AN EXTENDED LENGTH OF TIME WHILE THEY ORDER PARTS AND DO REPAIRS. I DON'T SEE WHY I SHOULD BE THE ONE WHO WILL BE INCONVENIENCED FOR THEIR LACK OF PROPER WORKMANSHIP. FURTHERMORE, I FEEL THERE IS A SAFETY ISSUE HERE ALSO. GM NEEDS TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM BEFORE IT CAUSES NEEDLESS HARM TO SOMEONE.

THE DRIVER SEAT BELT IS STICKING AND WILL NOT LATCH. IF YOU DO GET IT TO LATCH IT WILL UNLATCH WITH THE SLIGHTEST MOVEMENT. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT. THEY TOLD ME THE TECHNICIAN WAS UNABLE TO GET THE LATCH UNSTUCK. THEY TOLD ME IT WAS A FAULTY MECHANISM AND THAT IT WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED, BUT THEY DO NOT JUST REPLACE THE LATCH, THEY WOULD HAVE TO REPLACE THE LATCH AND THE ENTIRE SEAT BELT ASSEMBLY WITH THE TENSIONER. HOWEVER THEY DID NOT HAVE THIS ITEM IN STOCK AND THEY WOULD HAVE TO ORDER IT AND I WOULD HAVE TO BRING THE VEHICLE BACK FOR THE REPAIRS. IN THE MEAN TIME I AM DRIVING WITH A FAULTY SEAT BELT THAT IS NOT ONLY A SAFETY ISSUE BUT A LEGAL ISSUE. I MUST WEAR MY SEATBELT - IT IS THE LAW. BUT UNFORTUNATELY IT WILL NOT LATCH. *TR

STARTING IN DEC 2014 WHILE DRIVING AT RANDOM SPEEDS, THE 2010 CHEVY IMPALA WILL JERK HARD AND THEN THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT WILL COME ON. UPON THIS HAPPENING, THE REDUCE ENGINE SPEED APPEARS IN THE DISPLAY AS WELL AS SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL, AND SERVICE STABILITY. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING WITH VARIOUS SPEEDS AND VARIOUS WEATHER CONDITIONS. IF YOU PULL OVER AND TURN CAR OFF FOR ABOUT 5 MINUTES, IT WILL START RIGHT BACK UP AND ENGINE REDUCED WILL NO LONGER BE ON THE DISPLAY. *TR

LOUD TICKING SOUND COMING FROM PASSENGER SIDE VENT. I HAVE CHECKED WITH OTHER OWNERS OF CHEVYS WHO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEMS GOING BACK ABOUT 6 YRS+- WITH IMPALAS AND MALIBU'S. THERE ARE 3 MOTORS ON THE PASSENGER SIDE THAT GO BAD, WHEN ONE IS FIXED THEN AND OTHER TWO GO BAD SHORTLY AFTER. THE COST RANGE IS ABOUT $600.00. I HAVE BEEN ON THE PHONE WITH GM AND THE DEALER WITH NO SATISFACTION. I AM TOLD THE I HAVE TO PAY THEIR HOURLY RATE TO HAVE THIS INSPECTED, THEN THE REPLACEMENT COST. GM SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THIS OBVIOUS DEFECT. WHERE CAN I GET HELP. I AM 74YRS OLD AND ON A FIXED INCOME. PLEASE ADVISE!!!! *TR
