Chevrolet Impala Change Vehicle

"Failure of electronic module (Yaw sensor). Replaced under warranty"

"Had it about a month & kept adding power steering fluid because was leaving on a 1,000 mile drive that couldn't be changed. Had an estimate before leaving & two others when arriving at destination. It was resolved after the third estimate."

"Had to replace entire power steering unit"

"Rear strut broke on driver side, causing damage to the tire. Replaced both struts"

"the rubber bushing went on the rear torsion bars"

"While checking wheel bearing play, mechanic found one tie rod end had excessive play. Replaced both tie rod ends"

"Second front wheel bearing showed signs of play and was replaced."

"Left front wheel bearing has excessive play. It was found at the dealer and verified by an independent mechanic"

"The heater air only came out of the air conditioner vents. It wouldn't blow out of the defrost or the floor. Also my windshield wipers stopped working. The motor had to be replaced"

"When set to defrost it would not blow on windshield, it would blow through the vents on the floor or through the vents in dash in my face"

"the blower motor failed and had to replace it"

"Blower door stuck ooen"

"The heater blend door makes a clicking sound. It has been replaced a few times and begins again in a few months."

"Acuators that direct hot or cold air to vents"

"I had an irritating clicking noise whenever I turned the temperature in the car to a lower temperature. It was on the driver side. I previously had an issue on the driver side where I could not regulate the heat. I previously had the irritating clicking noise on the passenger side 2 different times when I had to have the actuators replaced (one first and then a different one several months later.) Additionally I had the heater/AC blower motor replaced TWICE when it would stop working intermittently. Poorly designed system with parts that can't be replaced by average person. Total cost to repair all of the above was over $1200!!"

"Car:Since the time I purchased this vehicle the battery and cables have given me a problem. I live in the Mojave Desert and this type of vehicle is not suited for summer heat. I would like to know what vehicle CR recommends for this type of environment in the Mojave Desert?"

"This is all part of the same problem. Please note: I have one car"

"Message center indicated that stabilility control system needed service. Took 2 tries for garage to correct"

"A sensor on the left front wheel went out"

"I don't know what to say about it. It just started acting up again within the last week. Every once in a while when you start forward it makes a loud noise and hesitates before engaging to go forward. It has been repaired three times, but it always comes back. The dealer has never really identified the problem, but he makes it go away for awhile"

"The problems I am experiencing are a known issue with the 2009-2012 Impala. CHEVROLET should issue a recall to address it. The wiring harness to the wheel speed sensor on the left front is too short and poorly routed, causing it to fail. When making a sharp left turn, the sensor stretches and loses contact, telling StabiliTrack that it is not turning, when it actually is. StabiliTrack compensates by slowing the right front. This results in the car slowing or coming to a stop in the middle of the turn as the car shudders and makes a horrendous grinding sound. When making a left turn on a two way street, this can stop you in front of oncoming traffic could easily cause a bad accident. Disabling StabiliTrack before the turn prevents this from happening, but only trades one problem for another, especially on a wet road. Several other owners have documented this problem on YouTube and I have included three links. CHEVROLET dealers reportedly perform a variety of unrelated, ineffective and expensive "repairs" to those who report the problem. Please help convince CHEVROLET to do something about this before somebody gets killed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H2GP5ICnaQ4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tPbIj93DXUg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mY-TATSTggo"
