2015 Chevrolet Impala

STARTED WITH SIDE DETECTION LIGHT NOT GOING OFF. THEN SERVICE FOR SIDE DETECTION CAME ON. WITHIN A WEEK I HAD MULTIPLE ERRORS AND SERVICES SUCH AS REAR CAMERA, FRONT CAMERA, COLLISON PREP, PARK ASSIST. REPLACED FUSES EVEN THOUGH NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH THEM. SAME LIGHTS. AS THE DAYS GO ON... I AM EXPERIENCING TROUBLES WITH CAR STARTING HAVING TO MANUALLY START/INSERT FOB INTO CENTER CONSOLE. HEATING AND ELECTRICAL INSIDE CAR NOT WORKING, STOPPED IN MIDDLE OF DRIVING AND IT WAS FOGGY AND OBVIOUSLY I COULDN'T DEFROST MY WINDOWS. RESTARTED CAR NUMEROUS TIMES AND THEN HEAT POPPED BACK ON. ALSO IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING IT STATES KEY FOB NOT DETECTED AND IT'S LITERALLY IN THE CUP HOLDER. I HAVE CHANGED THE BATTERY RECENTLY AT THE DEALER SO IT IS NOT A FAULTY FOB OR BATTERY. MY TRUNK HAS BEEN JUST POPPING OPEN FOR NO REASON AND SEVERAL TIMES WHILE I WAS DRIVING BUT ALSO WHILE STATIONARY. FOR SOME REASON MY POWER STEERING IS NOW ACTING LIKE IT IS OUT OF FLUID AND GRINDING HOWEVER ALL FLUID IS FULL. IT SEEMS TO BE ALL ELECTRICAL AND VERY SCARY AND UNPREDICTABLE.

SIDE OBJECT DETECTION SYSTEM FAILED 1ST (2/2018). SEE ATTACHMENT FROM ENGINEERING AT MY FORMER EMPLOYER (GMPG). 2ND ISSUE: DASH ILLUMINATION GOES BACK & FORTH FROM NORMAL TO EXTREMELY BRIGHT, DIMMING INOP. 3RD ISSUE SAFETY...WHEN VEHICLE IS STARTED, ERROR MESSAGES FOR AIRBAG, SIDE OBJECT DETECTION, FRONT & REAR CAMERA-HVAC COMPLETELY INOP. RADIO INOP-BEGINS WORKING AFTER ELECTRIC FACEPLATE LIFTED ON RADIO. HVAC & AIRBAG REMAIN INOP. ASKED DEALERSHIP ABOUT SIDE OBJECT ISSUE- THEY HAVE NO INFO ON THIS. ADDITIONAL PROBLEMS STARTED 2/13/2019. WHEN STARTING WITH RKE, SIDE OBJECT LIGHTS IN MIRROR ILLUMINATED SITTING IN A PARKING LOT. THEY HAVE NOT ILLUMINATED WHILE DRIVING IN OVER A YEAR. NO HEAT OR DEFROST WORKING-BIG SAFETY ISSUE IN WINTER WEATHER.

WITH NO PARTICULAR TRIGGER, MY SENSORS STARTED TO FAIL ONE BY ONE. THEN, MY RADIO TOUCH DISPLAY WENT OUT. NOW, MY CAR WILL RANDOMLY SHUTDOWN WHILE DRIVING, GO INTO THEFT MODE, OR HAVE THE ENTIRE DASH SYSTEM MALFUNCTION, LEAVING ME WITH LITTLE TO NO FUNCTIONALITY OTHER THAN STEERING.

I HAVE HAD MY 2015 IMPALA AT DEALERSHIP TWICE FOR MY AIRBAG SENSOR ON PASSENGER SEAT AND HAVE PAID MONEY OUT OF MY POCKET FOR THIS REPAIR. THIS YEAR AND MODEL CAR HAD A RECALL ON AIRBAGS BUT THE DEALERSHIP SAID EVEN THOUGH IT IS NOT A WEAR AND TEAR ITEM BUT A SAFETY ONE I STILL HAD TO PAY OUT OF MY POCKET. WITH THIS YEAR HAVING ISSUES WITH AIRBAG AND THIS BEING THE SEAT SENSOR I BELIEVE THIS SAFETY ISSUE SHOULD BE COVERED, MY TCN NUMBER IS AIN16-53807
