DRIVING UPHILL & THE SERVICE STABILTRAK & THE SERICE TRACTION CONTROL WORDS CAME ON FOLLOWED BY REDUCE OF ENGINE POWER & THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT & TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON. WE COULD STILL DRIVE AT ABOUT 20 MPH UPHILL & 45-50 ON FLAT ROADS. WE SHUT THE CAR OFF 4 ABOUT 2 HRS 2 COOL DOWN. BUT THEN AS SOON AS WE HEADED UP A HILL IT STARTED ALL OVER.

I WAS SITTING IN THE PARKING LOT WITH MY ENGINE RUNNING FOR ABOUT 10 MIND. ALL A SUDDEN 'REDUCED ENGINE POWER' CAME ACROSS MY DASH AND MY SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I TURNED MY CAR OFF. ABOUT AN HOUR LATER I TURNED IT BACK ON AND THE MESSAGE WAS GONE. THEN AS I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD MY SERVICE AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON. IT ONLY COMES ON WHEN THE PASSENGER SEAT BEAT IS CLICKED ON. AND MY DRIVER SIDE BACK DOOR AUTO LOCK STOPPED WORKING.

THE TAKKATA INFLATOR SYMBOL IS SHOWING I HAVE TOOK IT TO SEVERAL MECHANIC AND THEY SAY THEY CAN FIX THE PROBLEMS. MY CAR JUMP AND STOP AT TIME. WHEN I TRY TO START MY CAR IT TAKES LIKE 5 OR 6 TIME BEFORE IT START. IT MOSTLY JUMP , SHAKES AND THAT THE ENGINE BEFORE IT STARTS. THE HEAD LIGHTS WHERE CHANGES AND THEY STILL KEEP GOING OUT

2010 CHEVY IMPALA ONLY HAS 58,000 MILES ON IT. I'VE ALREADY HAD BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH THE CAR NOT STARTING ALL OF THE TIME AND NOW AFTER PUTTING NEW TIRES ON IT, I AM DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND GET "SERVICE STABILITRACK," "SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL," AND "ENGINE POWER REDUCED." I WAS ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY GOING ABOUT 60 MPH AND WAS ALMOST REAR-ENDED DUE TO THE SUDDEN LOSS OF SPEED. I WAS ABLE TO MOVE INTO A TURNING LANE AND GET TO A PARKING LOT WITHOUT GETTING MYSELF KILLED. I STILL, HOWEVER, HAVE TO FIGURE OUT HOW I'M GETTING HOME FROM WORK! I HAD NOTICED WHEN I FIRST WENT OUT THAT IT SEEMED TO BE SHIFTING HARD, BUT THE ROADS WERE WET, SO I THOUGHT PERHAPS IT WAS THE STABILITRACK KICKING IN, NOT GOING OUT! I HAVE TWO SMALL CHILDREN, WHO THANKFULLY WERE NOT WITH ME. THE CAR HAS BEEN NOTHING BUT TROUBLE SINCE I'VE PURCHASED IT. WITH SUCH LOW-MILEAGE, I FIGURED I WAS GOOD TO GO FOR AWHILE. I HAVE A 2003 CHEVY TAHOE WITH ALMOST 200,000 MILES AND HAVE NOT HAD THIS MANY ISSUES OUT OF IT!! CONTACTED CHEVROLET, BUT AM TOLD NO RECALLS HAVE BEEN MADE. WHY NOT?!?!

2ND AIR INJECTION CHECK & SHUT OFF VALVE HAS FAILED FOR THE 3RD TIME ON THIS VEHICLE. I CONTACTED A FRIEND OF MINE AT GM AND A GLOBAL TECHNICAL SPECIALIST IN THE EXHAUST MANIFOLDS/HEAT SHIELDS/SAI DIVISION OF THE GENERAL MOTORS GLOBAL PROPULSION SYSTEMS STATED THAT THERE WAS A CORROSION DURABILITY CONCERN WITH THIS PART THAT RESULTED IN ELEVATED WARRANTY. THERE IS NOW A IMPROVED SERVICE PN AVAILABLE THAT REPLACES THE PN THAT HAVE BEEN USED IN MY VEHICLE. I FEEL THAT GM SHOULD RECALL THESE BAD PARTS AND REFUND US FOR THEM. EACH TIME THIS PART NEEDS TO BE REPLACED THE COST IS OVER $400 TO ME. MY FIRST REPLACEMENT PART WENT ON 1-30-13 AT 46737 MILES. THE 2ND REPLACEMENT PART WENT ON 7-8-14 AT 71368 MILES. NOW THE 3RD REPLACEMENT PART NEEDS TO GO ON AT 115429 MILES. THE 1ST REPLACEMENT PART COST ME $567 TO REPLACE AT THE DEALERSHIP. THE 2ND REPLACEMENT PART COST ME $478 TO REPLACE AT AN INDEPENDENT SHOP. IT WILL COST ME THE SAME OR A LITTLE MORE TO GET THIS REPLACED FOR THE 3RD TIME. IS THERE ANYTHING THAT YOU CAN DO TO HELP ME?
