I NOTICED THE CAR'S (2017 CHEVROLET IMPALA) A/C WAS BLOWING HOT AIR WHILE STATIONARY AND IN MOTION. I TOOK IT IN FOR AN A/C CHECK. PER THE CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP'S SERVICE ADVISOR, THERE IS AN EVAPORATOR CORE LEAK INTO DASHBOARD. GM HAS RELEASED TWO SPECIAL OVERAGE BULLETINS (N182186880 & N182186881) IDENTIFYING THE ISSUE AND THE YEAR, MAKE, AND MODEL (2016-2018 IMPALAS 3.6). ALSO, PER THIS BULLETIN, IT STATED IT IDENTIFIED THE VINS THIS IMPACTED, BUT I HAVE THE SAME ISSUE AND CAR. IT DOES NOT STATE WHY SOME IMPALAS WERE NOT SELECTED. BUT DIFFERENT FORUMS ON THE INTERNET, SHOW THERE ARE MORE IMPALAS AND THEIR OWNERS WHO HAVE THIS SAME ISSUE. SEE HTTPS://WWW.IMPALAFORUMS.COM/THREADS/EVAPORATOR-REPLACEMENT.1841471/ . DUE TO VOLUME OF OTHER COMPLAINTS, I BELIEVE THIS SHOULD BE A NATIONAL RECALL. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE ESPECIALLY DURING THE SUMMER MONTHS.

THE CAR SHUT DOWN COMPLETELY ON ME THREE TIMES WHILE DRIVING IT, ONCE AN A RESIDENTIAL STREET AND TWICE ON A BUSY HIGHWAY. THIS IS SO DANGEROUS. I HAD TO WAIT 5-10 MINUTES EACH TIME BEFORE IT WOULD RESTART.

THE WARNING SYSTEM ON THE DRIVER CAR DOES NOT ALWAYS WOR. WILL NOT TELL ME IF BACKING UP IF SOMETHING IS COMING TOWARDS ME FROM THE LEFT SIDE AND THE INDICATOR ON THE DRIVER MIRROE DOES NOT ALWAYS WORK IF A CAR IS APPROACHING ME. I HAVE 63000 MILES ON THE CAR AND I THINK ITS A SAFTY ISSUE AND A FACTORY DEFECT.
