2010 Chevrolet Impala

INTERMITTENT ABS, TRACTION CONTROL, STABILITRAK ISSUES HAVE BEEN HAPPENING FOR THE LAST FEW YEARS. IT STARTYED AT ABOUT 80K MILES. I HAVE REPLACED THE WHEEL HUB TWICE DUE TO A LOOSE BEARING. THIS SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCED THE PROBLEM THE FIRST TIME, BUT HAS NOT RESOLVED THE ISSUE THE SECOND TIME. IT TENDS TO HAPPEN WHEN THE VEHICLE IS JARRED (SUCH AS HITTING A POT HOLD ON A DIRT ROAD) OR WHEN TURNING HARD TO THE RIGHT WHILE ACCELERATING. IF IT HAPPENS A FEW TIMES WITHIN A SHORT TIME, THEN THE SYSTEM WILL ABS, STABILITRAK, AND TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEMS SHUT DOWN. IT

WHILE DRIVING MY IMPALA, WITH NO WARNING, MY CAR LOST POWER. THE DASH BEEPED AT ME AND SAID REDUCED ENGINE POWER, SERVICE STALINKTRAK, SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL. I HAD TO TURN MY CAR OFF, I WAITED A FEW MINUTES THEN TURNED CAR BACK ON. THE CAR WAS ABLE TO RUN AND DRIVE AFTER THIS, BUT MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON. I HAD VEHICLE COMPUTER SCANNED AND HAD A CODE FOR THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR. AFTER FURTHER RESEARCH, I HAVE LEARNED I WILL NEED TO REPLACE THE WHOLE THROTTLE BODY. MY CAR HAS NOW LOST POWER SEVERAL TIMES AND MY RPM GAUGE 'BOUNCES'. I WILL BE PARKING MY CAR UNTIL THE PART COMES IN. THIS WAS VERY DANGEROUS AS YOU LOSE ALL POWER WITH NO WARNING GOING DOWN THE EXPRESSWAY. *TR

REDUCED ENGINE POWER LIGHTS CAME, ON TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT CAME, ON IT WAS HARD TO ACCELERATE IN THE MIDDLE OF A HIGHWAY, CAR ALMOST SHUT DOWN, BUT I MADE IT HOME. IT HAS HAPPENED TWICE ON THE HIGHWAY AND TURNPIKE. I THOUGHT IT WAS OIL BUT THAT WASN'T THE ISSUE. IT STOPS (THE PROBLEMS) AFTER I SHUT THE CAR OFF FOR AN EVENING, BUT I'M SCARED IT WILL POWER DOWN WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY AGAIN. WHEN THIS ISSUE HAPPENS THE CAR BEEPS, THEN THE TRACTION LIGHT COMES ON WITH WARNING AND SO DOES THE ENGINE LIGHT AND REDUCED ENGINE POWER WARNING. ALWAYS IN MOTION, ESPECIALLY HIGHER SPEEDS THAN NORMAL CITY STREETS. SUCH AS TURNPIKE AND HIGHWAY.

I HAVE HAD MY 2010 CHEVROLET IMPALA LS FOR ABOUT ONE YEAR NOW. IT CURRENTLY HAS 164,000 MILES. THE FOLLOWING PROBLEM STARTED HAPPENING ABOUT 6 MONTHS AFTER I BOUGHT IT, DURING THE WINTER MONTHS. WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED IN ANY KIND OF WEATHER (BUT HAPPENS MORE OFTEN IN COLD WEATHER) TWO LIGHTS POP UP, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND THE STABILITY TRACK LIGHT. I ALSO GET THREE DISPLAY MESSAGES, SERVICE STABILTRACK, SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL AND ENGINE POWER IS REDUCED. HALF OF THE TIMES THAT THIS OCCURS MY CAR LITERALLY SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING AND A DIFFERENT MESSAGE IS DISPLAYED STATING ENGINE POWER SHUTTING DOWN. I LOSE ALL CONTROL OF VEHICLE, POWER STEERING, GAS ETC. THIS ONLY HAPPENS WHEN GOING AT HIGH SPEEDS ,WHICH IS EVEN MORE DANGEROUS. I TURN THE CAR OFF, IF I IMMEDIATELY TRY TO TURN IT BACK ON IT DOES NOTHING, IF I WAIT A MINUTE OR SO IT WILL TURN OVER. AT THIS TIME USUALLY ALL DISPLAY AND LIGHTS ARE OFF EXCEPT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. WHICH DOES EVENTUALLY GO AWAY. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION AND NEEDS TO BE FIXED OR A RECALL IS IN ORDER. THERE ARE FAR TOO MANY PEOPLE THAT HAVE GONE THROUGH THIS SIMILAR SITUATION. *TR

WIPER STOPPED WORKING WHILE DRIVING ON EXPRESSWAY ON HEAVY RAIN THERE IS NO POWER FROM FUSE TO WIPER HAVE CHECKED EVERYTHING POSSIBLE .SEATBELT SOMETIMES DOESN'T LOCK ON PASSENGER SIDE AND SOMETIMES IT COMES OFF ON ITS OWN KNOCKING NOISE IN FRONT DASH BOARD AND IT SEEMS LIKE THERE ARE TOO MANY PROBLEMS WITH THESE CHEVY UNBELIEVABLE BUT NO RECALLS. REFUSE TO RECOMMEND CHEVY CARS TO ANYONE! *TR
