THEY RECENTLY HAD A RECALL FOR THE 2014 CHEVY IMPALA FOR THE BRAKES NOT DISENGAING THE ROTORS CAUSING NOT VERY GOOD DRIVABLE CONDTIONS, BUT WHEN I CALLED AND HAVE THEM MY GIN NUMBER IT SAYS MINE DOES NOT HAVE A RECALL BUT MY CAR IS DOING THE VERY EXACT THING. AND IT DOES THIS WHILE DRIVING AND LIKE IT STATED CAN CAUSE YOUR WHEEL TO BURN AND THAT'S WHAT HAPPEN TO MY CAR.

THE OUTBOARD DRIVERS SEAT BELT TENSION CABLE FAILED AT THE POINT WHERE THE CABLE WAS CRIMPED (PHOTOS ATTACHED) WHICH APPEARS TO BE THE SAME FAILURE WHY OUR CHEVY TRAVERSE IS CURRENTLY BEING RECALLED, RECALL WAS ISSUED FIVE YEARS AGO AND COVERED 1.4 MILLION CHEVROLET TRAVERSE, BUICK ENCLAVE, GMC ACADIA AND SATURN OUTLOOK VEHICLES BUILT BETWEEN 2009 AND 2014. IN THIS CASE, THE SEATBELT SNAPPED WHILE THE BELT WAS BEING BUCKLED. THE CAR HAD NOT BEEN IN ANY ACCIDENT.

I'VE ONLY HAD THIS CAR FOR 7 MONTHS AND JUST A COUPLE DAYS AGO THE STABILITY LIGHT AND ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND IT FELT LIKE MY CAR WAS LOSING POWER. I PARKED AND LET IT SIT FOR A WHILE AND IT WAS FINE BUT THE NEXT DAY THE SAME THING

I RECEIVED A RECALL LETTER FROM GM REGARDING AN ELECTRICAL RECALL ON MY 2014 CHEVY IMPALA 2014. THERE IS WATER DAMAGE IN SIDE DETECTION SENORS, WHICH ARE UNDERNEATH THE 2 BACK TIRES. WATER DAMAGE THAT HAS CAUSE ELECTRICAL ISSUES WITH EVERY ELECTRICAL PART OF THE CAR. SPEEDOMETER GOES OFF WHILE DRIVING LIGHTS GO OFF AND ON WHILE DRIVING. SENSORS ARE BEEPING WHILE DRIVING RADIO GETS LOUD TURNS OFF AND ON ON ITS OWN. AIRBAG WARNINGS WHILE DRIVING, BATTERY SHUTS DOWN. ITS A MESS.

WE WERE DRIVING AND THE LIGHTS ALL DASH LIGHTS HEADLIGHTS AND MOTOR JUST CUT OUT WE WE WERE ALMOST REAR ENDED.WE FOUND OUT THE DRIVERS SIDE DETECTION IN THE REAR BUMPER WAS CORRODED AND SHORTING OUT THE ENTIRE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM.

"SERVICE SIDE DETECTION" COMES ON THE DASH EVERYTIME THE CAR IS STARTED. RECENTLY I TRIED TO ENTER MY VEHICLE AND THE FOB DID NOT UNLOCK THE DOORS AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS. ONCE IT DID, THE CAR WOULD NOT START. AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS OF STARTING THE VEHICLE IT FINALLY WORKED, BUT THE GAUGES KEPT TURNING ON AND OFF EVEN WHILE THE CAR WAS IN MOTION AS WELL AS THE DOOR LOCKS. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED, BUT IT WAS QUITE CONCERNING WHILE DRIVING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 CHEVROLET IMPALA. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30 TO 35 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO MOVE ONTO A SIDE STREET AND RESTARTED THE ENGINE. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO AN UNKNOWN DEALER WHERE SEVERAL FAILURES WERE LOCATED.

WHILE DRIVING ON CITY STREETS AND THE HIGHWAY, THE STABLITRAX LIGHTS COME ON THEN SERVICE INDICATORS DISPLAYS: SERVICE STABLITRAX, FRONT CAMERA, AND POWER STEERING. THE CAR SLOWS DOWN SIGNIFICANTLY AND THE POWER STEERING THEN LOCKS UP UNTIL YOU DISMISS ALL OF THE CODES. THEN YOU CAN HEAR A CLICKING THAT SOUNDS LIKE THE CAR IS TRYING TO RESTART. IT HAPPENS SPORADICALLY. I TOOK IT TO A SHOP AND HE STATED TO CHECK FOR RECALLS BECAUSE THERE HAVE BEEN QUITE A FEW IMPALAS BEING BROUGHT IN FOR THE SAME REASON. I CONTACTED CHEVY AND THEY STATED THAT THERE ARE NO KNOWN RECALLS FOR MY MAKE AND MODEL.
