2011 Chevrolet Impala

THE CAR KEEPS RUNNING AFTER IT IS TURNED OFF. THE FAN ALSO KEEPS RUNNING, THEN THE NEXT MORNING THE CAR WOULDN'T START. THE AIR WON'T TURN DOWN AND SOMETIMES IT DOESN'T WORK AT ALL. THERE DOESN'T SEEM TO BE A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN AIR AND DEFROST. WHILE I AM DRIVING, THE LIGHT KEEP GETTING DIM, THEN BRIGHTER, THEN DIM, THEN BRIGHT. IT WAS THE NEXT MORNING THEN WHEN IT WOULDN'T START! SOMETIMES WHEN WE PUT THE KEY IN, WE COULDN'T GET IT OUT. WE HAD TO KEEP TRYING TO TURN IT ON AND OFF, THEN IT FINALLY LET US TAKE THE KEY OUT. *TR

TL * THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CHEVROLET IMPALA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REAR WINDOW SHATTERED. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THERE WERE NO CRACKS ON THE WINDOW TO INDICATE THAT IT WOULD HAVE SHATTERED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A PRIVATE MECHANIC WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 55,000.

WHILE I WAS DRIVING THE SERVICE STABILITY PACK AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON AND IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE REDUCED ENGINE POWER CAME ON. THE CAR THEN JERKED, AND SHUT OFF WHILE I WAS STILL DRIVING, AND WOULDN'T START AGAIN UNTIL APPROXIMATELY 30 MINUTES LATER. THERE WERE NO WET NOR ROAD HAZARD CONDITIONS THAT WOULD HAVE CAUSED THIS TO HAPPEN. FURTHERMORE, I WAS DRIVING AT 60MPH WHEN THIS OCCURRED IN MODERATE TRAFFIC AND ALMOST GOT REAR ENDED. THIS IS A VERY UNSAFE ISSUE, AND I WAS TOLD THAT THE GAS PEDAL NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. SINCE THEN MY VEHICLE HAS DONE THIS SEVERAL TIMES. THIS ISSUES NEEDS TO BE RECALLED BECAUSE A LOT OF INDIVIDUALS HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT HAVING THE SAME ISSUES WITH THE IMPALA. WHAT IS IT GOING TO TAKE AN INJURY OR FATALITY FOR A RECALL ON THESE VEHICLES. MOREOVER, ANY VEHICLE THAT SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED BECAUSE OF AN ISSUES WITH THROTTLE BODY/GAS PEDAL NEEDS TO BE RECALLED BECAUSE THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. *JS
