2009 CHEVROLET IMPALA Complaints

WHILE DRIVING THE CAR DISPLAYED "POWER REDUCE". THEN THE CAR SLOWED DOWN BY ITSELF. THE NEXT DAY THE CAR LOST POWER. TODAY, THE CAR IS STATING THE SAME THING AND SIGNAL TURN THEMSELVES ON, AND ONCE THE CAR IS OFF THE DOORS WANT LOCK YOU HAVE TO MANUAL LOCK THE DOORS. THE CAR HAVE BEEN JERKING WHILE DRIVING AND MAKING A FUNNY NOISE. *TR

I WAS KNOCKED UNCONSCIOUS AND HAVE NO RECOLLECTION UNTIL GAINING AWARENESS IN THE HOSPITAL. THE WRECK HAPPENED IN ROBINSON TOWNSHIP, PA AND I WAS DRIVING HOME. THE AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY AS IT SHOULD HAVE. THANKFULLY, I WAS WEARING MY INVISALIGN, WHICH SIGNIFICANTLY MINIMIZED THE SHARPNESS OF MY TEETH OR ELSE I WOULD HAVE LOST HALF MY TONGUE. IT WAS STILL SEVERELY DAMAGED AND YOU CAN SEE THE SCAR. A MRI SHOWED THE CONCUSSION. I HAD TO SPEND $6,000 ON MY CAR TO BE FIXED. IT TOOK ME ALMOST A MONTH TO BE ABLE TO WALK ON CONRETE DUE TO THE DAMAGE TO MY BODY. I HAVE BEEN THROUGH PHYSICAL THERAPIES AND STILL HAVE NECK AND NERVE DAMAGE. *TR

THERE IS A CLICKING SOUND COMING FROM THE A/C OR DASH AREA OF THE VEHICLE. IT CLICKS FOR ABOUT 5 MINUTES AND THEN GOES AWAY. IF YOU TRY CHANGE THE TEMPERATURE, IT STARTS AGAIN. I HEARD MANY OTHER IMPALAS HAVE THIS SAME ISSUE. I HOPE CHEVY FIXES THIS, IT COULD CAUSE THE DRIVER TO BE DISTRACTED WHILE DRIVING AND CRASH. LUCKILY THIS HASN'T TO ME. *TR

CAR TURNED OFF BY ITS SELF WHILE DRIVING. LUCKILY HAD ENOUGH MOMENTUM TO PARK IT. WHEN I STOPPED I PLACED THE VEHICLE IN PARK AND THE KEY WAS STUCK IN THE IGNITION AND THE SHIFTER WOULD NOT MOVE. I CONTACT MY CHEVY DEALERSHIP AND ASKED IF THIS WAS A SAFETY RECALL. IT WAS NOT. I DON'T KNOW WHY THIS IS NOT A RECALL. HAVING YOUR CAR STOP WHILE DRIVING IS INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS. CONSIDERING THAT MY POWERSTEERING AND BRAKES WENT OUT ON ME. I CAME OUT OF THIS WITHOUT INJURY BUT I WHAT IF SOMEONE WAS GOING AROUND A CURVE OR DRIVING IN DANGEROUS CONDITIONS. I REALLY HOPE CHEVY TAKES RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS AND RECALL OR IN MY CASE REIMBURSE OWNERS. *TR

WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THE TRACTION LIGHT CAME ON THEN I LOST COMPLETE POWER WHILE ON THE INTERSTATE GOING AT A SPEED OF 70MPH. I WAS IN THE FAR LEFT LANE AND HAD COMING TRAFFIC BEHIND ME. THE CAR COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN CAUSING ME TO LOSE ALL POWER ALMOST REAR ENDED AND TRYING TO MAKE MY WAY OVER CUTTING IN FRONT OF CARS SO THAT I WOULD NOT BE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE EXPRESSWAY WITH ON COMING TRAFFIC. WAS ABLE TO MAKE OVER TO THE MEDIAN AND THOUGHT IT WAS SOMETHING ELSE. SO THEN I WAITED THERE FOR 20 MIN UNTIL MY FRIEND ARRIVED TO HELP ME AND THE CAR CRANKED UP AND DROVE LIKE NOTHING WAS WRONG. SO I STARTED DRIVING AGAIN AND WITHIN 45 IT HAPPENED AGAIN. I WAITED A FEW MINS AND IT CRANKED UP. ABOUT A WEEK OR TWO LATER IT HAPPENED AGAIN AND HAS BEEN HAPPENING MORE. I DON'T MAKE MUCH MONEY AND DON'T HAVE IT TO TAKE TO A MECHANIC AND ITS MY ONLY SOURCE OF TRANSPORTATION. PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF THIS IS SOMETHING THAT HAS A RECALL. I HAVE SEEN AND READ THIS HAPPENING TO OTHER CARS IM WONDERING IF THEY MISSED A YEAR OR SOMETHING. *TR
