2007 Chevrolet Impala

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET IMPALA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN SHE STARTED THE VEHICLE, SHE RECEIVED AN ILLUMINATED MESSAGE STATING THAT THE ENGINE POWER WAS LOW. LATER THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ALSO ILLUMINATED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND ADVISED HER TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO A DEALER. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 36,000.

MY AIR BAG LIGHT CONTINUES TO COME ON FOR NO REASON, MY TIRE SENSOR LIGHT COMES ON AS WELL EVEN WHEN THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH MY TIRES, MY SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT IS ON I GOT IT SERVICED AND ITS STILL ON , MY SEAT BELTS DO NOT WORK PROPERLY , MY HEAT AND AIR DOESN'T WORK PROPERLY AS WELL THERE'S SO MUCH WRONG WITH MY CAR AND I HAVE SPENT SO MUCH MONEY FIXING IT AND THE SAME PROBLEMS STILL OCCUR. *TR

RETURNING HOME FROM WORK ON INTERSTATE NOTICED IT TOOK HIGHER RPMS TO GET UP TO THE 65MPH SPEED LIMIT. AFTER DRIVING FOR A FEW MINUTES I STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT. THE VEHICLE COULD THEN ONLY GET UP TO 40MPH AND LOST POWER DOWN TO 10MPH WHEN I PULLED OVER AND CALLED IT A DAY. CURRENTLY AT THE SHOP WITH 10 DIFFERENT CODES SHOWING. UNFORTUNATELY I HAVE HAD IT JSUT OVER 5 YEARS AND NOT IN WARRANTY ANY MORE. *TR

SINCE I HAVE HAD MY IMPALA I HAVE HAD SEVERAL PROBLEMS WITH THE CA. THE FIRST PROBLEM THAT I NOTICED WAS THAT MY WINDSHIELD WIPER FLUID STOP COMING OUT AFTER ON HAVING THE CAR A FEW MONTHS, I LATER FOUND OUT THAT THE MOTOR HAD GONE OUT. ANOTHER PROBLEM THAT IM HAVING IS THAT THE CHECK TIRE SERVICE LIGHT CONTINUES TO COME ON EVEN AFTER, TIRES HAVE BEEN FILLED AND REPLACED, I HAVE ALSO NOTICED THAT ON OCCASIONS MANY OF THE OTHER SERVICE LIGHTS COME ON LIKE CHECK AIRBAGS, AND BRAKES EVEN AFTER CAR HAS BEEN SERVICED. MY BIGGEST ISSUE IS THAT MY TRANSMISSION FLUID HAS BEGUN TO LEAK OUT MY CAR AND NO ONE NOT EVEN THE DEALERSHIP CAN FIGURE OUT WHERE OR WHY ITS LEAKING. THIS CAUSES THE CAR TO HESITATE AND JERK UPON ACCELERATION. READING A LOT OF THE FORUMS OUT I'M NOT THE ONLY PERSON HAVING THESE PROBLEMS AND I THINK THAT AN INVESTIGATION SHOULD BE DONE ON THE IMPALA. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET IMPALA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, THE ENGINE REDUCE POWER WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED AS THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT WHENEVER THE MESSAGE ILLUMINATED, SHE WOULD HAVE TO RESPOND RAPIDLY AND MERGE OFF THE ROADWAY BEFORE THE VEHICLE WOULD STALL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 80,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 134,930.

MY IMPALA'S SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL AND ENGINE POWER REDUCED LIGHTS CAME ON 05/07/12 AND I LOSS POWER TO MY CAR. I TOOK MY CAR IN TO A CHEVY DEALERSHIP TO HAVE IT SERVICED, I WAS TOLD AFTER THEY DIAGNOSED IT THAT I NEEDED A NEW THROTTLE BODY SO I HAD IT REPLACED FOR THE COST OF $647.00 1 WEEK LATER I WAS DRIVING HOME AND MY CAR LOSS POWER AND SHUTDOWN COMPLETELY LUCKILY I WASN'T IN HEAVY TRAFFIC AND WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I TRIED TO RESTART IT AND WHITE SMOKE CAME FROM THE TAILPIPE SO I HAD IT TOWED BACK TO THE SAME DEALERSHIP THEY TOLD ME AFTER LOOKING @ IT THAT NOW I NEEDED A NEW ENGINE WHICH WOULD COST ME $6200 I DIDN'T GET ANY LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD OR ANY OTHER INDICATION THAT I WAS HAVING ENGINE TROUBLE AND THEY CANT TELL ME WHY IT HAPPENED. I HAVE MY CAR SERVICED LIKE CLOCKWORK @ THE DEALERSHIP SPENDING GOOD MONEY FOR SUPPOSEDLY GOOD QUALITY SERVICE INSTEAD OF SOME RINKY DINK GARAGE BUT I GUESS THAT DIDN'T MATTER. THIS HAPPENED JUST AFTER WARRANTY EXPIRED, I HAVE 9100 MILES AND 3 CAR PAYMENTS LEFT. *TR
