2005 Chevrolet Impala

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 CHEVROLET IMPALA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT FOR APPROXIMATELY THE LAST SIX MONTHS, THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE PAT O'BRIEN CHEVROLET DEALER IN WILLOUGHBY, OHIO FOR REPAIRS UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V40000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM) AND THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 106,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 CHEVROLET IMPALA. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH, THE VEHICLE'S POWER SEIZED. THE VEHICLE RESTARTED AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS. THE FAILURE RECURRED SEVERAL TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED PER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V400000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM), BUT THE REMEDY FAILED TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

SPEED GAGE IS NOT WORKING CORRECTLY. IT WILL WORK AND STOP WORKING IN ROTATION. WHEN CAR IN NOT IN MOVEMENT, IT SOMETIMES SHOWS VEHICLE IS GOING A SPEED OF 60 TO 120 MILES PER HOUR. WHEN IN MOTION THE GAGE MOVES FROM RANDOM SPEED TO SPEED. SOMETIMES AT ESTIMATED SPEED OF 60 MILES PER HOUR THE GAGE IS SHOWING 5 MILES PER HOUR OR MAYBE 105 MILES PER HOUR.

WHEN STATIONARY AND THE KEY IS INSERTED, THE IGNITION SWITCH WILL NOT TURN THEREFORE THE ENGINE WILL NOT START. WE HAVE ALREADY TAKEN IT IN FOR THE RECALL AND ALL THAT WAS DONE WAS THE KEY WAS RETROFITTED BUT THE IGNITION SWITCH NEEDS FULL REPLACEMENT. THIS HAPPENED PRIOR TO THE RECALL AND CONTINUES TO HAPPEN AFTER THE RECALL. REPAIR COSTS HAVE BECOME EXPENSIVE AND UNAFFORDABLE!!!

THE INDICATORS IN THE FRONT PANEL NEXT TO THE STEERING WHEEL WORK INCONSISTENTLY. THE SPEEDOMETER, THE ODOMETER, GAS GAUGE, TURN SIGNALS,AND EMERGENCY BLINKER SIGNAL WORK SPORADICALLY. THE RIGHT TURN SIGNAL DOESN'T WORK AT ALL. SO IT IS DANGEROUS TO TRY TO TURN LEFT WHEN CARS ARE ADVANCING TOWARDS ME OR TO TURN RIGHT WHEN CARS ARE DRIVING BEHIND ME. THE YELLOW WARNING LIGHT FOR LOW GAS IS THE ONLY CONSISTENT WORKING SIGNAL. THIS CONDITION HAS EXISTED FOR TWO YEARS.

I HAVE ANOTHER COMPLAINT ABOUT THIS VEHICLE AND THE LIST COULD GO ON.I PURCHASED MY VEHICLE AND PAID CASH FOR IT.ABOUT A FEW MONTHS AGO MY DASH METERS STARTED GOING OUT.I HAVE ALMOST RAN OUT OF GAS ON MAY OCCASIONS WITH MY CHILDREN.THE SPEEDOMETER GOES OUT AND I HAVE TO KEEP UP WITH TRAFFIC.ALSO MY POWER STEERING PUMP DECIDED THAT IT WANTED TO LOCK UP IN THE MIDDLE OF A PARKING LOT.IT'S LEAKING AND MESSING UP OTHER PARTS OF MY CAR I BELIEVE.MY CAR HAS BEEN MAINTENANCE AND CARED FOR.THESE PROBLEM CAME OUT OF NO WHERE WITHOUT WARNING.THEY SHOULD BE REPAIRED BY THE MAKERS AND NOT THE CONSUMERS.THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD THAT WARRANTS A RECALL.

WHEN I AM DRIVING MY VEHICLE THE GEAR SHIFT THE STICK ON IT'S OWN.I HEAR A POP SOUND WHEN IT HAPPENS.THIS HAPPENS WHEN I AM IN MOTION AND DRIVING THE CAR..I HAVE ALREADY TAKEN MY CAR IN FOR A RECALL LAST YEAR TO REPLACE A IGNITION SWITCH.IT HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR A FEW WEEKS AND I THOUGHT IT WAS NORMAL,UNTIL I WAS IN TRAFFIC AND IT MOVED ON IT'S OWN. ALSO LAST YEAR I HAD TO HAVE THE FUEL INJECTOR REPLACED ON MY CAR.IT HAD BEEN LEAKING GAS FOR A WHILE.THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME I WOULD HAVE TO PAY TO HAVE IT FIXED.THERE WEREN'T ANY RECALLS DURING THE TIME.
