2017 CHEVROLET IMPALA Complaints

AIR CONDITION QUIT BLOWING COLD AIR. TOOK IT TO THE PLACE WHERE I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE. THEY PERFORMED A DYE TEST AND FOUND THAT DYE WAS COMING FROM AC DRAIN FROM FIRE WALL. VERIFIED REFRIGERANT LEAKING FROM EVAPORATOR. JUDGING FROM OTHER COMPLAINTS ON HERE, I BELIEVE THAT THE REPAIRS SHOULD BE FULLY PAID FOR.

A/C EVAPORATOR CORE LEAKS ALL THE REFRIGERANT, LEAVE A BIG SPOT OF REFRIGERANT ON MY DRIVEWAY AFTER WE DID RETURN FOR A SHORT TRIP, THE COST IS TOO HIGH TO REPLACE IT AND I THINK WE DESERVE FULL COVERAGE OF PARTS AND LABOR, I HAVE BEEN A GM CUSTOMER ALL MY LIFE AND THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THAT ONE OF OUR VEHICLES SHOWS THIS TYPE OF PROBLEM. THANK YOU, [XXX] INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

THE AIR CONDITIONING EVAPORATOR IS LEAKING UNDER NORMAL USE. I WAS TOLD MY VIN NUMBER IS NOT INCLUDED WITH A SPECIAL GM COVERAGE ADJUSTMENT N182186881. MY CAR HAS THE SAME PROBLEM AS THE SPECIAL COVERAGE ADJUSTMENT. I DID TAKE THE CAR TO A DEALER WHO INSTALLED A DYE AND RECHARGED THE SYSTEM TO DETERMINE WHERE THE A/C LEAK IS.

WHEN DRIVING UP HILL AT LOW SPEED A ROUGH CLUCK OCCURS WHEN GEAR CHANGES TAKE PLACE BETWEEN 2ND TO 1ST GEAR.

BROUGHT MY CAR IN FOR ROUTINE OIL CHANGE. INFORMED DEALERSHIP OF LOUD EXHAUST SOUND. ASKED IF THEY COULD CHECK FO AN EXHAUST LEAK. UPON PICKING UP MY VEHICLE I WAS INFORMED THE LOUD EXHAUST WAS DUE TO A CRACK IN THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER. I ASKED WHAT WOULD CAUSE THIS TO HAPPEN. THEY WERE UNSURE OF CAUSE IT IS NOT A NORMAL ISSUE FOR THE MILEAGE AND AGE OF VEHICLE. THEY DID PROVIDE ME WITH A QUOTE TO REPAIR. I TOOK MY CAR TO A DIFFERENT REPAIR SHOP AND THEY WERE CONCERNED THAT THIS PART WAS FAULTY FROM THE MANUFACTURER. THEY INFORMED ME THAT A RECALL COULD BE POSSIBLE AND ADVISED ME TO CONTACT GM.

STARTING IN MARCH 2019 THE 2017 CHEVY IMPALA ENGINE WOULD STOP AND WOULDN'T START BACK UP FOR AT LEAST 30 MINUTES. IT WOULD HAPPEN WHEN I STOP AT A STOP SIGN OR LIGHT OR WHENEVER I STOP THE VEHICLE. THEN IN JULY OF 2019 THE VEHICLE STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET. IT WOULDN'T REVERSE OR GO FORWARD. IT WAS IDENTIFIED AS A TRANSMISSION LEAK. ALL THE TRANSMISSION OIL HAD LEAKED OUT. TOOK THE VEHICLE TO SEVERAL REPAIR SHOPS WHICH THEY COULDN'T IDENTIFY THE PROBLEM. MY TRANSMISSION IS DAMAGED BY NOW. A 2017 CHEVY IMPALA SHOULD NOT HAVE TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS UNLESS THERE IS SOME TYPE OF DEFECT.

ONCE DRIVEN,CAR WILL NOT RE-START. THIS WILL HAPPEN RANDOMLY . NO CLICKING,NO DASH LIGHTS, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING; AS IF NO BATTERY IN CAR. HAD IT DIAGOSED IN SHOP TWICE NOW, CAN NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG (CANNOT DUPLICATE NO START). I NOTICED IN CAR COMPLAINTS .COM THAT SOMEONE IN HORN LAKE, MS HAD SMILAR ISSUE WHILE DRIVING ON 3 DIFFERENT OCCASIONS. I BELIEVE THIS IS A SERIUOS SAFETY ISSUE!!!!

TRANSMISSION FAILURE OF MY 2017 CHEVY IMAPLA LT WHILE DRIVING ON INTERSTATE ON 9/26/20. I HAVE 164,000 ON THE VEHICLE AND ACCORDING TO VEHICLEREPORTS.COM THE LIFETIME EXPECTANCY OF THESE TYPES OF VEHICLES ARE ONLY 160,000. THE TORQUE CONVERTER INSIDE ON THE TRANSMISSION ARE KNOWN FOR FAILING AND COSTING MANY CUSTOMERS SUCH AS MYSELF TONS IN REPAIR COSTS. THERE ARE MANY CONSUMER COMPLAINTS ONLINE OF THE BAD SHIFTING IN 1ST AND 2ND GEAR ON THESE VEHICLES. THE TRANSMISSION JERKED SO BAD REPEATEDLY UNTIL IT CAUSED HEADACHES.

WHILE I WAS DRIVING THE CAR A WHIT CLOUD OF SMOKE FILLED THE INTERIOR OF THE CAR MAKING THE VISION VERY BURRY. I PARKED MY CAR FOR 2 DAYS BEFORE THE MECHANIC COULD LOOK AT IT. HE REPORTED THAT THE A/C EVAPORATOR CORE RUPTURED AND LEAKING FERON INSIDE THE CAR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 CHEVROLET IMPALA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY BEGAN TO VIBRATE AND SEEMED AS IF THE VEHICLE WAS LOSING MOTIVE POWER. THE ENGINE POWER REDUCED AND STABILITY CONTROL WARNING LIGHTS WERE ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT HAD NOT CONTACTED THE DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,836.
