2005 Chevrolet Impala

SPEEDOMETER GAUGE NOT SHOWING PROPER SPEED SHOWS DOING 100 WHEN PARKED, TOOK CAR TO DEALER AND WAS TOLD NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH IT. SPEEDOMETER COMPLETELY QUIT WORKING AND NOW THE FUEL GAUGE IS NOT WORKING. SPEEDOMETER QUIT WORKING 2 YEARS AGO. CRUISE CONTROL HAS WENT OUT SEVERAL TIMES AND NO LONGER WORKS TRANSMISSION STARTED SLIPPING AROUND 80,000 MILES. TRACTION CONTROL AND ABS LIGHT IS CONSTANTLY ON AND STATING THAT IT NEEDS TO BE SERVICE WHEN TRACTION CONTROL WAS NEVER ENGAGED. *TR

I HAVE A 2005 CHEVROLET IMPALA AND THE SPEEDOMETER IS NOT WORKING PROPERLY. I'VE CHECKED NHTSA COMPLAINTS AND FIND OVER AND OVER THIS SAME COMPLAINT BUT WAS TOLD BY A CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP THIS WAS NOT A RECALL. WITH THE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS FILED THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL BY CHEVROLET INSTEAD OF MAKING THE CONSUMER PAY FOR THE REPAIRS. IN LIGHT OF RECENT TOYOTA RECALLS I WOULD THINK CHEVROLET WOULD TAKE SIMILAR ACTION FOR THIS DEFECT IN THEIR AUTOMOBILES. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 CHEVROLET IMPALA. THE CONTACT STATED THE TRANSMISSION, SPEED ODOMETER AND ANTILOCK BRAKE IS FAULTY.

THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER AND CONTACT THE WAS TOLD SHE HAS TO PAY THE EXPENSES FOR THESE REPAIRS. THERE ARE NO RECALLS OR WARRANTIES ON THE VEHICLE. THE VIN NUMBER IS UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 85,000.

2005 CHEVROLET IMPALA. SPEEDOMETER WORKS ONLY INTERMITTENTLY. STICKS AT ZERO WHEN IT ISN'T WORKING. AT TIMES, WHEN FUNCTIONING, THOUGH I INCREASE SPEED OR DECREASE, NEEDLE DOESN'T MOVE IN TIMELY MANNER THUS NOT ACCURATELY REPORTING CURRENT SPEED; NEEDLE LAGS WAY BEHIND CHANGES IN SPEED. THIS IS DANGEROUS AS I CAN NOT DETERMINE HOW FAST I AM GOING, ESPECIALLY IN AREAS SUCH AS SCHOOL ZONES WHERE OTHERS ARE ANTICIPATING A CERTAIN SPEED AND I AM SOMETIMES EXCEEDING IT UNKNOWINGLY LEADING TO SOME CLOSE CALLS WITH ME ALMOST HITTING PEOPLE WHO PULL OUT IN FRONT OF ME; IF I WERE ABLE TO DETERMINE MY SPEED ACCURATELY AND TRAVEL AT THAT SPEED THERE WOULD NOT BE THESE CLOSE CALLS. NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY DUE TO INTERMITTENT PROBLEM NOT COMPLETE FAILURE AND AS WARRANTY IS ALMOST EXPIRED AND WILL BE TOO COST PROHIBITIVE (IN EXCESS OF $800 AND SEVERAL WEEKS WITHOUT A VEHICLE) TO GET IT FIXED AFTER WARRANTY ENDS SO I WILL HAVE NO OPTION BUT TO DANGEROUSLY AND KNOWINGLY DRIVE A CAR NOT ABLE TO DETERMINE MY SPEED DUE TO GM'S FAILURE TO FIX THIS PROBLEM THAT THEY ARE MORE THAN AWARE OF AS THEY HAVE RECEIVED MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS. TO ME, THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE FOR MYSELF AND OTHERS I ENCOUNTER ON THE ROADWAY AND I FEEL IT IS CHEVROLETS RESPONSIBILITY TO FIX THIS PROBLEM FOR ALL OF US AS THEY USED MOTORS IN THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER THAT ARE PRONE TO FAILURE! *TR

ON MY GRANDFATHERS 2005 CHEVROLET IMPALA THE GAUGE CLUSTER STOPS WORKING. IT FIRST STARTED WITH THE WATER TEMP GAUGE. AND NOW THE SPEEDOMETER WORKS INTERMITTENTLY. ITS DEFINITELY A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE YOU DON'T KNOW HOW FAST YOUR GOING. AND AFTER TYPING THE PROBLEM INTO GOOGLE.COM THEIR ARE OTHER OWNERS OF IMPALAS WHO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. THE CAR ONLY HAS 51K MILES ON IT. IM CURRENTLY LOOKING ONLINE FOR A REASONABLE GAUGE CLUSTER SO I CAN REPLACE IT. I FEEL A RECALL IS IN ORDER SINCE THIS ISN'T A LOCALIZED PROBLEM. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. *TR

I HAVE A 2005 CHEVY IMPALA. THE SPEEDOMETER WILL QUIT WORKING AND EITHER DROPS TO ZERO OR SHOWS A SLOWER SPEED THAN WHAT YOU ARE TRAVELING. IN ADDITION THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE WILL ALSO SHOW A LESSER TEMPERATURE THAN WHAT IS NORMALLY SHOWN. THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT HAS GOING ON SINCE 2007. I HAVE TRIED TO GET THIS REPAIRED BUT THE TECHNICIANS SAY THEY HAVE AN ISSUE ISOLATING THE PROBLEM. *TR

I HAVE A 2005 CHEVY IMPALA..MILEAGE ABOUT 83000. MY PROBLEM STARTED LAST YEAR WHEN THE SPEEDOMETER JUST FROZE. WHEN I GOT HOME AND SHUT THE CAR OFF IT STILL STAYED IN THE SAME POSITION. I TURNED THE KEY ON AND OFF AND THE SPEEDOMETER WENT DOWN 5MPH EACH TIME I TURNED THE KEY UNTIL IT WENT BACK TO Z ERO.. THEN SOMETIMES AFTER IT STICKS IT UNFREEZES AND STARTS GOING AGAIN. I'VE HAD THE SPEED READING 120MPH BEFORE STANDING STILL. THIS HAPPENS EVERY DAY WHILE DRIVING AND IS VERY UNSAFE BECAUSE I NEVER KNOW HOW FAST I AM GOING.. *TR

INSTRUMENT CLUSTER HAS FAILED, SPEEDOMETER DOES NOT WORK OR IS INCORRECT ALL THE TIME. DRIVER DOES NOT KNOW HOW FAST OR SLOW THEY ARE GOING ,THIS CREATES NUMEROUS SAFETY ISSUES WHILE DRIVING WITH OR WITH OUT OTHER TRAFFIC AROUND YOU. ALSO THE FUEL GAUGE HAS STOPPED WORKING AND HAS RAN OUT OF FUEL IN MAJOR TRAFFIC. I SEE THERE HAVE BEEN HUNDRED OF COMPLAINTS FILED WITH NHTSA, THERE ARE EVEN MORE ON VARIOUS WEBSITES. *TR

2005 CHEVROLET IMPALA INSTRUMENT CLUSTER FAILURE. SPEEDOMETER WORKS INTERMITTENTLY AND TEMP GAUGE STOPPED WORKING ALL TOGETHER. UNSURE IF FUEL GAUGE IS ACCURATE. WILL GM REPAY ME IF I AM ISSUED A SPEEDING TICKET? UNSURE IF ENGINE IS OPERATING AT SAFE OPERATING TEMPERATURE OR IF ENGINE DAMAGE IS OCCURRING DUE TO INOPERATIVE GAUGE. PLEASE RECOMMEND QUICKLY TO GENERAL MOTORS TO EITHER RECALL THESE DEFECTIVE CLUSTERS OR ADD THIS VEHICLE TO THE LETTER OF UNDERSTANDING THEY ISSUED FOR THE SUV AND TRUCKS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM.*TR
