2009 Chevrolet Impala

THIS PROBLEM INCLUDES MORE ITEMS THAN YOUR FORM ALLOWS ME TO CHECK. IT STATED OUT ABOUT 7 MONTHS AGO WHEN YOU WOULD BE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND THE SERVICE STABLE TRACT AND SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT WOULD COME ON CAUSING THE ENGINE POWER TO BE REDUCED WHICH IS AN ANNOENCE BUT IS ALSO A SAFETY ISSUE IS YOU ARE PASSING SOMEONE ON A TWO LANE ROAD WHEN IT HAPPENS AND YOU CAN NOT COMPLETE THE PASS DUE TO REDUCED POWER. IF YOU PULLED OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND SHUT THE CAR OFF THE SERVICE LIGHTS WOULD GO AWAY AND MAY NOT COME ON AGAIN FOR WEEKS. THIS PROBLEM WENT AWAY AFTER A COUPLE OF MONTHS AND THEN THE CAR STARTED A NEW ONE WITH A NO CRANK, NO START PROBLEM WHICH WHEN THIS WOULD HAPPEN YOU WOULD GET UP TO THREE WARNING LIGHTS, (SERVICE TABLE TRAC, SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL, AND SERVICE AIR BAGS) WITH TIME THE NO CRANK, NO START PROBLEM KEPT COMING AND GOING AND THE ONLY LIGHT THAT CAME ON WHEN IT WOULDN'T CRANK OR START WAS THE SERVICE AIR BAG LIGHT. IF YOU KEPT TRYING TO START IT AFTER 3 TO 30 TIMES IT WOULD START AND RUN FINE AND MAY NOT ACT UP AGAIN FOR 1 DAY OR EVEN UP TO A WEEK. A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO I HAD MY WIFE SWITCH CARS WITH ME AS THIS WAS THE CAR SHE DROVE TO WORK DAILY AND I DIDN'T WANT HER TO GET STRANDED. I AM SO GLAD I DID THAT AS THE VERY FIRST DAY I DROVE IT TO WORK ON MY WAY HOME WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY THE CAR SHUT OFF FOR NO REASON AND THE SERVICE AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON, I LOST MY POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES AND AGAIN I COULD HAVE BEEN IN VERY BIG TROUBLE IF THIS WOULD HAVE HAPPENED WHEN I WAS TRYING TO PASS ANOTHER CAR AND I DON'T THINK THE AIR BAGS WILL DEPLOY WITH THE SERVICE AIR BAG LIGHT ON. I REPORTED THE TO CHEVROLET AND THEY TOLD ME TRYING TO FIX IT WOULD BE AT MY COST SINCE IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY. THE LOCAL DEALER AND FOUND THAT THEY HAVE BEEN TRYING FOR 3 DAYS TO FIND A NO CRANK, NO START ON A CORVET WITH NO LUCK.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 CHEVROLET IMPALA. WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO SWERVE INTO ADJACENT LANES WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL AND THE FAILURE STOPPED. THE FAILURE RECURRED RANDOMLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DETERMINED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 110,000.

A TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT COMES ON SAYS IT IS REDUCING SPEED AND THE CAR WILL LOOSE POWER AND JUST DIE. THIS IS SO DANGEROUS IT HAS HAPPENED THREE TIMES ON THE FREEWAY WITH MY KIDS IN THE. I RECEIVED A SPECIAL NOTICE RECALL BUT WHEN I TOOK IT IN THEY SAID THAT SINCE I WAS OVER THE MILEAGE THEY COULD NOT DO THE REPAIR. THE KEY IS ALSO STUCK IN THE IGNITION AND WILL NOT COME OUT DRAINING THE BATTER, AAA HAS COME OUT TWICE TO SWITCH THE BATTERY OUT FOR ME. THERE IS ALWAS A CLICKING SOUND COMING FROM THE DASHBOARD.

I HAVE A 09 CHEVY IMAPALA AND MY CAR MAKES THIS AGGRAVATING TICKING NOISE WHEN I ENTER MY CAR WHEN I CRANK UP THE CAR WHEN IM OUTSIDE AND TOUCH HE CAR IT TICKS FOR ABOUT A MINUTE OR TWO. IT ALSO TICKS WHEN I HAVE TO TURN THE AIR ON FOR THE DRIVER SIDE I HAVE TO LEAVE THE TEMP OR HOT AND WHEN THE TICKING STOPS COMPLETLY ( THERE IS TWO REPS OF IT) THEN I CAN MOVE IT TO THE COLD SIDE.

CAR IS CURRENTLY AT 134K MILES AND JUST GAVE ME A "REDUCED POWER ENGINE", "CHECK TRACTION CONTROL", AND A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. I GOOGLED AROUND AND CAME ACROSS A LOT OF CHEVY IMPALAS AROUND THE SAME YEAR (07-10) ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. IT SEEMS TO BE SOMETHING WITH THE "ACCELERATOR PEDAL POSITIONER PEDAL SENSOR. ALSO READING INTO IT, IT CLAIMS THAT THIS PROBLEM CAN CAUSE THE CAR TO SUDDENLY STOP FROM 60MPH ALL THE WAY DOWN TO 20 OR ZERO. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND NEEDS TO BE LOOKED INTO BEFORE SOMEONE IS HURT OR KILLED.

I WAS ON THE INTERSTATE, GOING THE SPEED LIMIT. I HAD THE CRUISE CONTROL ON WHEN THE CAR ALERTED ME THAT THE ENGINE POWER REDUCED AND SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL. I CONTINUED TO DRIVE AS THESE MESSAGES HAVE APPEARED ON MY CAR BEFORE. I TRAVELED ANOTHER 40 MILES ALONG THE INTERSTATE AND WAS ABOUT A MILE FROM MY EXIT. I WAS PASSING AN OVER-SIZED TRACTOR TRAILER GOING UP HILL WHEN THE CAR DISPLAYED STARTING DISABLED THROTTLE SERVICE AND THE CAR SHUT OFF. I WAS IN THE LEFT LANE AND HAD TO INITIATE MY EMERGENCY LIGHTS AND WAIT FOR THE TRACTOR TRAILER TO PASS ME SO I COULD MOVE THE CAR OVER TO THE RIGHT SHOULDER. AS THE CAR WAS COMPLETELY SHUTOFF AND WAS JUST COASTING, I HAD TO FIGHT THE STEERING WHEEL TO CONTROL THE CAR. I FEEL LIKE HAD MY SITUATION WAS JUST A LITTLE DIFFERENT, THE CAR COULD HAVE CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSTATE WITH CARS TRAVELING 70+ MPH AND POSSIBLY CAUSED A CRASH. I'VE ALREADY REPLACED THE THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR AND THAT REMEDIED THE SITUATION FOR A COUPLE MONTHS. THIS A HIGHLY DANGEROUS OCCURRENCE THAT I KNOW IS COMMON WITH THE IMPALA'S AS I'VE HEARD IT HAPPENING TO SEVERAL OTHER PEOPLE OWNING IMPALA'S.
