2015 Chevrolet Impala Complaint Log

BRAKE LIGHTS GASKETS ARE FAULTY FROM THE FACTORY AND ALLOW WATER TO FILL THE TRUNK WHEN IT RAINS. WHICH LEADS TO MOLD AND MILDEW SMELL THROUGHOUT THE VEHICLE. GM HAS PRODUCED A GASKET THAT IS "THICKER" AND CORRECTS THE PROBLEM BUT REFUSE TO ISSUE A RECALL AND DEALER SAYS ITS NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY. I'VE SPENT HUNDREDS AT DEALERSHIPS TRYING TO FIND FIND CAUSE OF THE WATER.

The contact owns a 2016 Chevrolet Impala. The contact stated that on various occasions while driving at night, the headlights failed to illuminate properly, and the roadway was not adequately illuminated. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer, where the failure could not be duplicated, and no repairs were completed. The vehicle was then taken to Columbia Chevrolet (9750 Montgomery Rd, Cincinnati, OH 45242) where it was diagnosed that the headlight assemblies needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 10,000. The consumer stated he replaced both headlights assemblies.

2015 CHEV. IMPALA-SHORTLEY AFTER I PUT THE KEY IN THE IGNITION TO START IT. I PUT IT IN REVERSE OR DRIVE THE CAR HESITATE THEN GERKS IN THE DIRECTION IM GOING. THEREVVVVBBVCDEEB BFVB B FV BB IS A DELAY IN EVERTHING ON THE DASHBOARD. EX. IF I TRY TO TURN THE RADIO UP RIGHT AFTER STARTING MY CAR THE VOLUME WILL NO TURN UP.

THE POSTS IMPLEMENTED TO KEEP THE FLOOR MATS FROM SLIDING UNDER THE PEDALS ON THE DRIVER SIDE ARE LOOSELY ATTACHED TO THE CARPET ONLY AND EASILY RIP OUT CAUSING THE MATS TO SLIDE BACK UNDER THE PEDALS. THESE POSTS ARE NOT ATTACHED TO THE FLOOR BOARDS OR FRAME, THEY ARE ONLY ATTACHED TO A 1/4" PIECE OF FABRIC THAT IS THE FLOOR CARPET. THESE POSTS SHOULD BE ATTACHED TO THE FLOOR BOARD OR FRAME AS THEY ARE A SAFETY FEATURE.

"SEVICE STABILITRAK" LIGHT CAME ON, THEN 2 HOURS LATER ABS LIGHT CAME ON AND ON EVERY LEFT TURN THERE IS A CRUNCHING SOUND IN THE FRONT TIRE AND ALARMS SOUND, AND MY ENGINE STARTED STALLING AS I WAS TURNING ONTO A BUSY STREET, ALMOST WAS IN A CRASH. WHEN I MADE IT HOME I RESEARCHED IT AND FOUND MANY OTHER IMPALA OWNERS HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM, SAME SCENARIO. THIS CANNOT BE A COINCIDENCE THAT EVERY CHEVY CUSTOMER IS DESCRIBING THIS SAME SITUATION. CHEVROLET NEEDS TO HAVE A RECALL ON THESE IMPALA'S. WE ALL LOVE OUR IMPALA'S BUT YOU CANNOT ALLOW US TO BE OUT THERE ON THE ROAD IN DANGER. WE WANT TO SUPPORT AMERICAN MADE!! PLEASE DO THE RIGHT THING AND FIX THIS PROBLEM.

THERE IS A CONSTANT WATER PUDDLE UNDER THE FLOOR MAT ON THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE OF THE CAR. IT DRIES AND THEN IT IS THERE AGAIN.IT IS A HUGE PROBLEM TO ME AND I WANT IT FIXED.

THE REAR WINDOW IS SMALL AND I DEPEND ON THE BACK UP CAMERA BUT IT IS DARK AND I CANNOT SEE A PERSON BEHIND THE CAR -- THE DEALERSHIP SAYS THAT'S THE WAY IT'S MADE AND GM GOES WITH THEIR DEALERSHIP -- THEY'RE WRONG -- TRIED TO GET IT FIXED SEVERAL TIMES WITH NO LUCK

I AM WRITING THIS EMAIL IN REGARDS T MY 2015 CHEVROLET IMPALA. ON MARCH 14TH 2016 I PURCHASED A USED 2015 CHEVROLET IMPALA. WHEN I PURCHASED THE IMPALA IT HAD 12,050 MILES. MARCH 17TH 2016 ONLY THREE DAYS AFTER I PURCHASED THE CAR, I GOT IN THE CAR TO HEAD TO WORK, WHEN I TURNED THE CAR ON THERE WAS AN ERROR STATING POWER STEERING NEEDS SERVICE. THE STEERING WHEEL WOULD NOT TURN AND WAS IN A LOCKED POSITION. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND AT THAT POINT THEY SAID THEY HAD TO SEND A TOW TRUCK TO PICK UP THE VEHICLE. AROUND 11:00AM THAT DAY A TOW TRUCK CAME TO PICK UP THE CAR AND I WENT WITH THE TOW TRUCK TO THE DEALERSHIP TO PICK UP A LOANER VEHICLE. A FEW HOURS LATER I RECEIVED A CALL FROM THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT STATING MY CAR WAS REPAIRED AND I COULD PICK IT UP. WHEN I PICKED UP THE CAR I WAS TOLD THERE WAS A COMMUNICATION ERROR WITH THE POWER STEERING PROBLEM THE SYSTEM WAS RESET AND I SHOULD HAVE NO PROBLEMS MOVING FORWARD . PLEASE SEE ATTACHED DOCUMENT DATED MARCH 17TH 2016. ON MAY 6TH 2016, I WAS BACKING OUT OF GARAGE/ DRIVEWAY AND AS I WENT TO TURN (STILL IN REVERSE POSITION) I SUDDENLY WAS UNABLE TO STEER THE CAR. I IMMEDIATELY CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS SENT TO A VOICEMAIL DUE TO THE TIME BEING AFTER HOURS. I THEN PROCEED TO TURN THE CAR ON AND OFF SEVERAL TIMES AND THE WARNING WENT OFF AND I WAS ABLE TO MOVE THE CAR INTO A SAFE POSITION ON THE ROAD. PLEASE SEE ATTACHED DOCUMENT DATED MAY 11 2016. ON JUNE 25TH 2016 IT HAPPENED AGAIN AND THIS TIME I WAS DRIVING. I THANK GOD THAT MY BOYFRIEND AND I WERE ON A SIDE STREET AND WE WERE GOING AT A VERY SLOW SPEED. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP IMMEDIATELY AND WAS TOLD TO BRING THE CAR IN FOR SERVICE.

STARTED HAVING ISSUES WITH THE CV AXLES POPPING WHEN STARTING AND STOPPING AT 18000 MILES. MOTOR MOUNT WENT BAD SHORTLY AFTER AND STEERING STARTED ACTING REALLY SLUGGISH WHEN TRYING TO TURN. AROUND 25K MILES IT STARTED GETTING WORSE ABOUT TURNING AND THE GAUGES WOULD START RESETTING ON THERE OWN. AFTER A DAY OF THAT HAPPENING THE PASSENGER SIDE DASH CAUGHT ON FIRE.

IN MOTION ON CITY STREET GOING ABOUT 45 WHEN VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME WAS IN MOTION TO MAKE A RIGHT TURN AND CAME TO AN ABRUT STOP. I HIT MY BRAKES AND MY CAR DID NOT STOP AND I HAD MY FOOT ON BRAKE PUSHED ALL THE WAY TO FLOOR AND CAR CONTINUED ALMOST LIKE IT SLID INTO THE IMPACT/COLLISION. HIS CAR WAS NOT DAMAGED BUT ATTACHED IS THE DAMAGE TO MY CAR.

BOUGHT A PRE-CERTIFIED IMPALA, WE WERE TOLD THAT THEY HAD CHANGED THE POWER STEERING PUMP FROM THE PREVIOUS OWNER AND EVERYTHING WAS GOOD. I JUST MADE MY FIRST PAYMENT ON MARCH 26, 2016 AND THAT SAME DAY I WENT OUT AND GOT IN MY CAR TO LEAVE FROM MY DAUGHTERS HOUSE AND I PULLED OUT ABOUT 100 FT AND THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP ON ME, I COULD NOT TURN THE WHEEL AT ALL. I TURNED MY CAR OFF AND CALLED MY HUSBAND, HE CAME OUT AND IT DONE THE SAME THING TO HIM AND THEN IT FINALLY STARTED MOVING AGAIN SO HE TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY STATED THAT IT WAS GROUND WIRE TO THE POWER STEERING, SO WE SAID OK IT SHOULD BE FINE. TODAY I WENT TO STOP AT A STOP LIGHT ON A CITY STREET AND THE WHEEL PULLED TO THE RIGHT AND I TURNED IT BACK TO THE LEFT AND THE STEERING WHEEL WOULD TURN BUT IT KEPT GOING TO THE RIGHT. THANK GOD I GOT STOPPED, IT FINALLY DECIDED TO STRAIGHTEN OUT AND IT WAS PULLING TO THE RIGHT SO NOW IT IS BACK IN THE SHOP AND I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR AGAIN. THIS HAS BEEN A VERY STRESSFUL EXPERIENCE.

THIS IS THE 2ND COMPLIANT I AM FILING AND IT IS THE 3RD TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. ON MARCH 12, 2016 I WAS LEAVING MY FRIENDS HOUSE AND GOT ABOUT 2 BLOCKS FROM THEIR HOUSE WHEN MY STEERING WHEEL LOCKED AND A MESSAGE ON THE DASH BOARD READ POWER STEERING SERVICE CAUTION! AND AT THE BOTTOM DISMISS, I ALMOST HIT A PARKED CAR THAT WAS PARKED ON THE STREET. I CALLED GM ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE AND AFTER WAITING ABOUT 15 MINUTES I STARTED THE CAR BACK UP AND THE WHEEL WAS TURNING SO I TOOK IT BACK AND PARKED IT HAD MY FRIENDS HOUSE INSTEAD OF ON THE STREET AND HAD GM SEND A TOW TRUCK THE NEXT MORNING TO HAVE IT TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER FOR SERVICE. THE PAST 2 TIMES THIS HAS HAPPENED THEY COULD NOT OR WOULD NOT GUARANTEE ME THAT IT WOULDN'T HAPPEN WHILE I WAS DRIVING IT AND NOW IT HAS. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE WITH THIS ISSUE BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED.

THE VEHICLE IS EQUIPPED WITH AN AUTO STOP/START THAT SHUTS DOWN THE ENGINE TO REDUCE FUEL CONSUMPTION. AND WHEN YOU PUT YOUR FOOT BACK ON THE GAS PEDAL THE ENGINE IS SUPPOSE TO ENGAGE ITSELF AGAIN SO THAT YOU CAN TAKE OFF. ONCE MY VEHICLES AUTO STOP HAS ENGAGED THE ENGINE IS STAYING OFF FOR SOMETIMES UP TO 2 MINUTES CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO NOT MOVE AND CAUSING A SUDDEN JERKING MOTION.

INITIALLY IT STARTED OUT WITH LOSING ALL LIGHTING CONTROL DURING DRIVING FOR ABOUT 10SEC AFTER WHICH IT COMES BACK ON. THIS WHEN ON ARE ABOUT TWO MONTHS AND ABOUT A WEEK AGO, I STARTED GETTING THE ERROR MESSAGE 'POWER STEERING DRIVE WITH CARE' WHICH ALTERNATES WITH ANOTHER ERROR MESSAGE 'STABILITRAK'. EACH TIME THIS COMES ON DURING DRIVING, THE CAR JERKS A LITTLE WITH THE EMERGENCY PARK LIGHT FOR ABOUT 2SEC AND IF I WERE DRIVING WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL ON, IT AUTOMATICALLY DISABLES IT. THIS IS REGARDLESS OF HOW FAST AM DRIVING.

FIRST EXPERIENCE WHERE CAR SHUT OFF COMPLETELY WHILE DRIVING DOWN A HILL DURING A SNOW STORM. FOOT IS ON BRAKE, SLOWING SPEED, ALL ELECTRONICS SHUT OFF - LIGHTS, GAUGES - EVERYTHING. ALMOST INSTANTLY, CAR RESTARTS ITSELF. CAR HAS REMOTE START, CRUISE CONTROL AND PUSH BUTTON START. DEALERSHIP STATES NO ERROR CODE RECORDED AND CHARGES $125 EACH TIME WE COMPLAIN ABOUT THIS. ONE OWNER (ME).

I WAS INVOLVED IN A COLLISION WHILE DRIVING MY 2015 CHEVROLET IMPALA POLICE VEHICLE. THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE STRUCK THE RIGHT SIDE OF A VEHICLE THAT TURNED LEFT IN FRONT OF ME. THE PATROL CAR CAUGHT FIRE DURING THE COLLISION AND WAS ONLY PUT OUT WHEN THE FIRE DEPARTMENT CUT THE BATTERY CABLES. THE APPARENT ISSUE IS THAT AFTER A MAJOR COLLISION THE FUEL PUMP DID NOT TURN OFF WHICH CAUSED FUEL TO BE ADDED TO THE FIRE......UPDATED 02/10/16 *BF *JS

I BOUGHT MY CAR WITH 11K ON IT. IT WAS A DEALER USED CAR THAT HAD NEVER BEEN REGISTERED FOR THE ROAD. I HAD A 2009 CADILLAC, SO THIS IS WHAT I COMPARED THIS CAR TOO THEN. THE PASSENGER WIPER BLADE HAS "SCRATCHED" THE WINDSHIELD WHERE IT STOPS TO RETURN BACK DOWN. THIS HAS CAUSED A PERMANENT MARK IN THE WINDSHIELD, THE LENGTH OF THE BLADE. THIS BLOCKS YOUR VISION AT THE WORST TIME; WHEN IT IS RAINING OR SNOWING. NEXT UP ARE THE SAFETY FEATURE CONTROL LOCATIONS WHICH WERE VERY POORLY DESIGNED. THERE ARE 5? DIFFERENT ONES. TWO ARE ON THE LEFT DASH AREA, BUT OBSTRUCTED BY THE STEERING WHEEL. ANOTHER ONE IS ON THE STEERING WHEEL, NEXT TO OTHER CONTROLS AND I'VE TURNED IT OFF BY ACCIDENT. THERE ARE OTHERS, NOT EASILY ACCESSIBLE, BUT YOU HAVE TO OPERATE THE DRIVER INFO CENTER BY SEVERAL CLICKS TO ACCESS THEM. NOT VERY CONSISTENT. THE HORN IS MORE DIFFICULT TO OPERATE THAN ANY OTHER CAR IN MY LIFE! IN THE PAST, IF YOU PUSH THE LITTLE HORN ICON, IT BLOWS. WITH THIS CAR, YOU MUST PUSH AT THE BOTTOM OF THE WHEEL; I FOUND THIS OUT BY TESTING IT OVER AND OVER. THE HORN WILL NOT WORK IN AN EMERGENCY SITUATION BY MOST PEOPLE. SPEAKING OF COVERED CONTROLS BY THE STEERING WHEEL, THE START/STOP BUTTON IS OBSCURED UNLESS YOU TURN THE WHEEL OR LEAN SIDEWAYS. IF YOU JUST PULL INTO YOUR DRIVEWAY NORMAL, YOU CAN'T SEE IT. THE EMERGENCY 4-WAY FLASHER BUTTON IS NEXT TO THE START BUTTON, AND IS ALSO OBSCURED BY THE STEERING WHEEL. ELECTRICAL, MINOR BUT ANNOYING ISSUES INCLUDE THE HVAC SYSTEM AND MUSIC STORAGE. THIS THE THE WORST SYSTEM I HAVE EVER SEEN. IN ALMOST ANY CLIMATE (40'S DOWN TO BELOW ZERO), I HAVE TO TURN THE TEMP FROM 90, DOWN TO 66 TO STAY COMFORTABLE. TO USE AUTO-START, I HAVE TO REMEMBER TO PRESET ALL THE CONTROLS HOW I WANT THEM SET FOR THE NEXT MORNING! THE AUDIO MAKES UP ITS OWN SONG LISTS. THESE THINGS SHOULD NOT BE ON A 2015 CAR! I COULD GO ON EVEN MORE!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET IMPALA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH, THE SUNROOF SUDDENLY EXPLODED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER BUT THE FAILURE WAS UNABLE TO BE DETERMINED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 12,469.

BODY RECALL. THE PAINT ON MY 2015 CHEVY IMPALA SEEMS TO BE DEFECTIVE. IT HOLDS AN IMPRINT OF EVERYTHING THAT TOUCHES THE VEHICLE. OR IT MAY BE A FAULTY CLEAR COAT. BUT THE PAINT JOB IS DEFECTIVE.

CAR WAS TRAVELING AT 79 MPH ON HIGHWAY IN CRUISE CONTROL WHEN CAR LOST ALL POWER (ENGINE, EXTERIOR/INTERIOR LIGHTS, BRAKES, ETC.) WAS ABLE TO GET CAR TO THE SHOULDER, AND RESTART THE VEHICLE. LATER DETERMINED THE ISSUE TO BE WITH THE KEY. A SLIGHT BUMP OF THE KEY, E.G. TAPPING THE ATTACHED KEYRING OR HITTING A BUMP WHILE DRIVING, CAUSES THE CAR TO TURN OFF . THIS WAS A RENTAL CAR RENTED FROM BUDGET.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET IMPALA. WHILE DRIVING 10 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, BUT FAILED TO STOP THE VEHICLE. AS A RESULT, THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE CRASHED INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. NO INJURIES WERE SUSTAINED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKES FAILED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 7,027. UPDATED 01/12/16*LJ *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET IMPALA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE EXTERIOR LIGHTS OFFERED NO SIDE VISIBILITY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE HEADLAMPS COMPLIED WITH FEDERAL STANDARDS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS INVALID. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 5,000. UPDATED 05/11/16*LJ

THE HID HEADLIGHT BEAM OF THE 2015 CHEVROLET IMPALA LT IS VERY POOR. THE BEAM OF LIGHT IN THE LOW SETTING PROVIDES NO ILLUMINATION TO THE SIDES OF THE ROAD, FORWARD ILLUMINATION IS MARGINAL. I CONTEND THAT WHEN THE 2015 IMPALA LIGHTS ARE ON THE HIGH OR "BRIGHT" SETTING IT IS COMPRABALE TO THE LOW BEAM SETTING IN MY 2012 IMPALA. IN MODERATE TO HEAVY WEATHER, RAIN, SLEET, SNOW THE HEADLIGHTS OFFER NO ASSISTANCE, DRIVER IS NAVIGATING BLIND, CAN NOT EVEN SEE THE LINES ON THE ROAD. I LIVE AND DRIVE PRIMARILY IN A RURAL AREA, ALONG WITH THE WEATHER CONDITIONS THERE ARE MANY WILDLIFE HAZARDS. I HAVE EXPERIENCED SEVERAL CLOSE ENCOUNTERS WITH WILDLIFE AND TWO IMPACTS, ONE WITH A DEER CAUSING SUBSTANTIAL DAMAGE TO MY CAR. I SIMPLY CAN NOT SEE ANYTHING UNTIL IT IS DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF THE CAR. IT IS IN MY JUDGEMENT THESE HEADLIGHTS ARE UNSAFE NOT ONLY FOR THE OCCUPANTS OF THE VEHICLE, BUT OTHERS SHARING THE ROADS WITH THE VEHICLE.

I LEASED A NEW 2015 IMPALA AT THE END OF MAY 2015. IT IS THE LT2 MODEL. IN OCT. 2015 I WAS TRAVELING ON THE FREEWAY WITH MY CHILDREN. THE CAR HAD A SUDDEN REDUCTION OF POWER, DROPPING FROM 70MPH TO AROUND 30MPH. THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND I HAD TO MOVE OUT OF TRAFFIC TO AVOID BEING HIT BY OTHER CARS. AT THE DEALERSHIP, I WAS TOLD THE FUEL PUMP WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. I FOUND IT ODD IN A BRAND NEW CAR, BUT FIGURED IT WAS A FLUKE. IN OCT. 2016 IT HAPPENED AGAIN! THE VEHICLE QUICKLY DROPPED FROM 60MPH OR SO, DOWN TO 30MPH AND I WAS ALMOST HIT FROM BEHIND BY A SEMI. I PUT ON MY HAZARDS AND EXITED AFTER DRIVING A MILE OR SO IN THE EMERGENCY LANE. THIS TIME, I TOLD THE DEALERSHIP THEY WOULD NEED TO TOW IT BACK. AFTER THEY CHECKED OUT THE CAR, I WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS ONCE AGAIN THE FUEL PUMP. 2 FUEL PUMPS AND TWO NEAR DEATH EXPERIENCES UNDER 20K MILES. I TOLD THE DEALERSHIP THEY NEEDED TO DO SOMETHING.I COULD NOT CONTINUE TO DRIVE THIS CAR IN FEAR. THE REASON WE DECIDED TO LEASE A NEW VEHICLE WAS TO HAVE A SAFE, RELIABLE CAR. WE WERE INFORMED BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT THE SUDDEN REDUCTION OF POWER (RESULTING IN 2 NEAR ACCIDENTS) WAS A "SAFETY FEATURE" IN THE PARTICULAR TRIM PKG OF OUR VEHICLE. IT WAS DESIGNED TO PROTECT THE ENGINE IN THE EVENT OF A PROBLEM. IT SEEMS THAT CHEVY IS MORE CONCERNED WITH PROTECTING THEIR VEHICLES THAN THE OCCUPANTS INSIDE. AFTER WRITING A NEGATIVE REVIEW ON THE CHEVY CUSTOMER SURVEY, I WAS CONTACTED BY GM. I EXPLAINED MY COMPLETE DISSATISFACTION WITH THE VEHICLE AND SINCE I NO LONGER FELT SAFE DRIVING MY FAMILY IN THIS UNRELIABLE VEHICLE, I WANTED OUT. THEIR SOLUTION? A FREE YEAR OF XM RADIO. THIS PAST WEEKEND (3/5/17) THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. MY HUSBAND USED A DIAGNOSTIC MACHINE TO FIND OUT THAT IT IS THE FUEL PUMP FOR THE 3RD TIME! THE CAR HAS JUST UNDER 29K MILES ON IT & IT WAS BARELY 3K MILES SINCE THE LAST TIME THIS HAPPENED.

THE TRUNK LID UNLOCKED AND RAISED WHILE IT WAS PARKED AND I WAS SITTING INSIDE A HOUSE, WITH THE FOB IN THE FRONT POCKET OF MY TROUSERS, WITHOUT ANY INTENTIONAL APPPLICATION OF FORCE ON THE FOB BUTTON. THIS UNINTENTIONAL ACTION EXPOSED THE CONTENTS OF THE TRUNK TO POSSIBLE THEFT.

TRUNK AUTOMATICALLY POPS OPEN WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY/ROAD, WHILE PARKED, AND WHEN INITIALLY STARTING AND WON'T PROPERLY CLOSE DUE TO THE LATCH RECYCLING CONSTANTLY WHEN IT POPS OPEN. PURCHASED VEHICLE IN OCT 2015 AND REPORTED TO THE DEALERSHIP WITHING THE FIRST COUPLE DAYS. IT HAS BEEN IN TO HAVE REPAIRED ON 3 SEPARATE OCCASIONS WITH THE SAME ISSUE REOCCURRING. EXTREMELY UNSAFE!

AT 1884K MI LEAVING HOME DEPOT PARKING LOT PWR STEERING WENT OUT WITH WARNING ON DASH (POWER STEERING FAILURE DRIVE WITH CAUTION). TOWED TO PORTER CHEVROLET IN NEWARK DE. WHERE THEY REPLACED THE ELECTRIC PWR STEERING RACK. THE CAR WAS IN THE SHOP FOR A WEEK. NOW, AT 3838K MI THE SAME SITUATION HAS OCCURRED AFTER PULLING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY AND STARTING DOWN THE STREET. THIS 4908 LB. CAR IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO STEER WHEN THIS HAPPENS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2015 CHEVROLET IMPALA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT UNKNOWN SPEEDS AND ATTEMPTING TO MAKE A COMPLETE STOP, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT STOP. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE STEERING WHEEL FAILED TO RESPOND CAUSING THE CONTACT TO CRASH INTO A DITCH AND IMPACTED THE DRIVER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT INJURIES WERE SUSTAINED THAT REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DEEMED DESTROYED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 8,000.

THE CONSUMER'S WIFE HAD TO SIT ON A CUSHION, IN ORDER TO SEE OUT OF THE VEHICLE AND TO PROPERLY POSITION HER BODY IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. THE CONSUMER WOULD LIKE TO HAVE THE PASSENGER SEAT SENSOR DEACTIVATED. *JB

MY VEHICLE DASH BOARD CLUSTER LIGHTS UP, AND EVERY COMPONENT ON THE DASHBOARD IS VISIBLE AND A RED BAR IS DISPLAYED ACROSS THE DISPLAY AREA. THIS HAS HAVE HAPPEN MORE THAN TEN TIMES .I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR IN TO REPAIR AT THE DEALERSHIP , BUT THEY ARE NOT ABLE TO FIND WHAT IS CAUSING THE PROBLEM. ON TWO DIFFERENT OCCASION I PICKED UP MY CAR FORM THE DEALER AND IN LESS THAN 5 MINUTES AND ABOUT 5 MILES THE SAME THING REPEATED ITSELF. ON NOV 9 I WILL BRING IT IN AGAIN FOR THE DEALER TO TRY AND FIX THE PROBLEM. THIS HAVE OCCUR ON CITY STREET, HIGHWAY, AND TURNING ALWAYS IN MOTION. NEVER STATIONARY THIS OCCUR IN SECONDS THAT PREVENT ME FORM GETTING A PICTURE OF THE OCCURRENCES. I WAS TOLD BY ANOTHER TECH AT THE SAME DEALERSHIP THAT THIS IS HAPPENING TO ANOTHER CUSTOMER ALSO. I HAVE TAKEN MY VEHICLE INTO THE DEALERSHIP ON OCT 1, 13, 27, AND NOV. 3 THIS NOV 9 WILL BE THE 5TH TIMES I WOULD HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE IN TO REPAIR. THE IS ALSO MORE INFORMATION ON THE THEY WANT ME TO BUT ANOTHER CAR FORM THE AND PAID WHAT THEY DEPRECIATION VALUE. MEANING THAT WHAT THE CAR IS WORTH LEST DEPRECIATION WILL BE CARRIED OVER TO THE NEW CAR FOR ME IF GM OKAY THE DEAL. I WILL KNOW BY NOV.10, BUT WILL NOT TAKE THE DEALER .ALSO IF I TAKE THE DEAL THE DEALER WANT TO PLACE THAT DEFECTED CAR ON THE LOT FOR SALE TO CUSTOMER WHO WOULD NOT KNOW ABOUT THE DEFECT. THE CAR WAS BROUGHT AT MUNDAY CHEVROLET HERE IN HOUSTON TX.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET IMPALA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HORN SYSTEM FAILED. THE CONTACT HAD TO PRESS THE HORN WITH FORCE TO BE ABLE TO SOUND A WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE HORN SYSTEM WAS OPERATING NORMALLY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 4,000.

I WENT OUT THE NIGHT OF AUGUST 28TH TO CELEBRATE THE ARRIVAL OF MY FIRST CHILD. AS MY FRIEND AND I WERE RETURNING HOME AROUND 1 AM ON THE 29TH OF AUGUST, I WAS STOPPED FOR DRIVING WITH NO HEADLIGHTS ON. I ASKED THE OFFICER HOW CAN THAT BE CONSIDERING I HAVE AUTOMATIC HEADLIGHTS. HE DIDN'T EVEN UNDERSTAND THERE WERE AUTONOMOUS EQUIPMENT IN VEHICLES TODAY. THE POLICE OFFICER APPLIED FOR A WARRANT FOR MY BLOOD AND DREW IT WITHOUT MY CONSENT. WHEN I GOT TO THE JAIL, I TOLD THEM I DIDN'T WANT TO TALK TO ANYONE OTHER THAN MY ATTORNEY OR JUDGE. THEY TOOK THIS AS SIGN OF HAVING SUICIDAL THOUGHTS. THEY HAD TWO GUARDS ASK ME FOR MY CLOTHES IN EXCHANGE FOR A BEACH BLANKET WHICH WOULD ONLY COVER THE BOTTOM, UPPER, FRONT, OR BACK SIDE OF MY BODY. ALL THIS BECAUSE I HAD A DEFECTIVE SAFETY DEVICE. THE OFFICER STATED HE NOTICED THE CAR'S HEADLIGHT WERE OFF AFTER I WAS HIT WITH HIGH BEAMS. THE SENSOR TURNS THE LIGHTS OFF WHEN IT'S HIT BY A PHOTON AND SLIPS INTO A DELAY SCENARIO. AND DOESN'T TURN THEM ON UNTIL THE SENSORS BELIEVE IT'S DARK ENOUGH. WHATEVER THAT IS. THE STATE'S (TEXAS) LAW REQUIRED THE LIGHT TO BE ON WHILE DRIVING BETWEEN A CERTAIN TIME FRAME. I'VE REPORTED THIS ISSUE TO THE MANUFACTURER ON TWO OCCASIONS. I'M ASKING THAT YOU INCLUDE STATE REGULATIONS SO THAT THIS KIND OF THING DOESN'T HAPPEN TO ANYONE ELSE. THIS EXPERIENCE HAS REALLY SHAKING MY TRUST WITH FEDERAL GOVERNMENT AGENCIES. IN FOLLOWING THE FEDERAL REGULATIONS TRYING TO ADDRESS SAFETY, IT SEEMS A LAW WAS BROKEN. AM I PROTECTED BY ANY FEDERAL PREEMPTION PROVISIONS? I HAVE A HARD TIME UNDERSTANDING WHY MY BLOOD HAD TO BE TAKEN WHEN IT WAS THE SOFTWARE MAKING THE DECISIONS. ARE THERE ANY SAFEGUARDS? I AM CONCERNED WITH WHO ELSE THIS WILL EFFECT.

AS I PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE THE DRIVER'S SIDE FRONT BRAKE STAYED CLUTCHED AGAINST THE ROOTER. I NOTIFIED THRIFTY CAR RENTAL NUMEROUS TIMES BUT NO ASSISTANT AS YET.

ON AUGUST 19, 2015 I STARTED MY CAR PUT IT INTO REVERSE AND THE STEERING WHEEL WOULD NOT TURN AND IT DISPLAYED SERVICE POWER STEERING I TURNED OFF THE IGNITION WAITED A FEW MINUTES AND TRIED AGAIN BUT IT STILL WOULD NOT TURN,I CALLED GM ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE AND THEY SENT OUT A TOW TRUCK TO HAVE THEM TAKE IT TO THE LOCAL CHEVY DEALER FOR SERVICE WHEN THE DRIVER GOT HERE HE STARTED THE CAR AND THE WHEEL TURNED BUT HE PUT IT ON A FLAT BED AND TOOK IT TO THE DEALER THEY SAID THE CAUSE WAS A DEFECTIVE B.P.M.V. THEY REPLACED PART # 2410350 ELECTRONIC BRAKE AND TRACTION CONTROL MODULE WITH BRAKE PRESSURE MODULATOR VALVE AND PART # 23208065 F (S) MODULE REPROGRAM ED AND BLEED THE SYSTEM SAID THEY ROAD TESTED IT FOR 40 MILES WITH 6 IGNITION CYCLES BUT THE MILEAGE WHEN IT WENT IN WAS AT 16036 AND WHEN IT CAME OUT WAS AT 16055 AS YOU CAN SEE ON THE DOCUMENT I AM ATTACHING. THEY RETURNED MY CAR TO ME ON AUGUST 28, 2015. BUT THEY COULD NOT TELL ME IF THIS COULD HAPPEN WHILE I AM DRIVING THE CAR. ON DECEMBER 19, 2015 I WENT TO START MY CAR AND IT WOULD NOT START SO AGAIN I CALLED GM ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE THEY SENT A TOW TRUCK AND HE TOOK THE CAR TO THE LOCAL DEALER FOR SERVICE THEY THE CAUSE WAS A DEFECTIVE BATTERY 4041510 BATTERY REPLACEMENT 247 W AND REPLACED IT WITH PART# 88865245. ON DECEMBER 26, 2015 I WAS LEAVING A FRIENDS HOUSE WHEN I STARTED THE CAR PUT IT IN REVERSE AND THE STEERING WHEEL WOULD NOT TURN AND THE DISPLAY READ SERVICE POWER STEERING. SINCE IT WAS LATE ON SATURDAY NIGHT OUR FRIEND DROVE USE HOME I WENT BACK TODAY STARTED THE CAR AND THE STEERING WHEEL WAS TURNING SO I DROVE IT HOME BUT SINCE THE DEALER IS CLOSED AT THIS TIME I WILL CALL ON MONDAY MORNING TO HAVE IT TAKEN BACK TO BE SERVICED AGAIN THE MILEAGE AT THIS TIME IS 19691.

WHEN I WAS REVERSING THE CAR THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE BREAKS WAS TIGHTLY GRIP ON TOO THE ROTOR. AS I TAP ON THE GAS THE CAR DID IT MOVE. I HAD TO PUT IT IN DRIVE AND TRY AGAIN.

QUESTION: ARE THESE NEW POLICE CARS WITHOUT LIGHTS SAFE IN HIGH SPEED CHASES? I LIVE IN NYC NY AND SEE THAT WE HAVE THESE NYPD CARS WITHOUT LIGHTS ON THE TOP OF THE CARS THERE. YES, IT IS A REGULAR CHEVY IMPALA POLICE CAR BUT WITHOUT THE LIGHTS ON TOP OF THE POLICE CAR WHICH ARE THERE WHEN CARS ARE IN PURSUIT OR IN CHASES OR SOMETHING. I THINK THE ONLY LIGHTS THAT THE NYPD CAR HAS WOULD BE LIKE IN THE FRONT MOTOR. WOW, THEY ALSO HAVE HIGHWAY PATROL CARS WITH THE NYPD WHICH DO REGULAR DUTIES WITH THE CAR WITHOUT THE LIGHTS ON TOP OF THE CAR THERE. WOW, IS THAT CAR ESPECIALLY THE NYPD HIGHWAY PATROL CAR TO DO CHASES WITHOUT THOSE LAMPS ON TOP. WOW, THAT IS ODD, YES, NYPD HIGHWAY PATROL HAS THOSE CARS WITHOUT LIGHTS ON TOP OF THEM DOING REGULAR PATROLS ON THE HIGHWAYS THERE. SAFE FOR CHASES AND ALL OF THAT?(REPLY BY E MAIL)...UPDATED 10/01/15*BF

THE GLOVE COMPARTMENT DOOR REMAINS SLIGHTLY OPEN. HOWEVER WHEN DRIVING THEN BREAKING IT WILL OPENED OCCASIONALLY

I PURCHASED A NEW 2015 CHEVROLET IMPALA LT2 ON JUNE 30, 2015 WITH 25 MILES ON THE ODOMETER FROM RED RIVER CHEVY, BOSSIER CITY, LA. THE GPS AND NAVIGATION AND THE WHOLE INFOTAINMENT SYSTEM STOPPED WORKING. ONSTAR COULD NOT LOCATE MY VEHICLE. IT KEPT SAYING I WAS IN TEXAS WHEN I HAVEN'T BEEN TO TEXAS IN THIS VEHICLE. THE CAR MUST HAVE COME FROM TEXAS. THE CAR WAS PLACED IN THE REPAIR SHOP ON JULY 27 AND IS STILL IN THE SHOP. THEY COULD NOT GET IT TO WORK WHILE I WAS AT THE DEALERSHIP. THE BRAKES ON THE CAR HAVE A BURNING SMELL TO THEM AND HAVE A CREEKING SOUND. WHEN I STOP IT SOUNDS LIKE SOMETHING IS RUBBING THE TIRES. I ASKED ABOUT THE BRAKES, I WAS TOLD IT COULD NOT BE FIXED BECAUSE GM HAS NOT RELEASED THE SOFTWARE TO FIX THE PROBLEM AND THE SOUND THE BRAKES MAKE, HE STATED HE PROBABLY COULDN'T FIX THE SOUND. THE ROAD NOISE IN THIS CAR IS REALLY LOUD NOW. IT WASN'T LOUD LIKE THIS WHEN I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. MY 83 YR OLD MOTHER MENTIONED THE NOISE AND SHE'S HARD OF HEARING. A LOCAL MECHANIC TOLD ME BALL BEARINGS WILL MAKE THAT TYPE OF NOISE. I KNOW GM INSTALLED BAD SWITCHES, I HOPE THEY DIDN'T INSTALL BAD BRAKES AND BALL BEARINGS. THEY ARE AWARE OF THE SOUND AND I WAS TOLD ITS JUST LOUISIANA HIGHWAYS. WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO ABOUT THE BRAKE ISSUE? I WOULD LIKE A NEW CAR THAT IS SAFER TO DRIVE. IT HAS NOT BEEN 30 DAYS CAN I GET A REFUND OR ANOTHER VEHICLE?

ON JUNE 30, 2015 I PURCHASED A 2015 CHEVY IMPALA FROM RED RIVER CHEVY, BOSSIER CITY, LA 71111, (318) 549-7500. ON JULY 17, 2015 THE ENTIRE MY LINK SYSTEM WHICH INCLUDES, ONSTAR, GPS, CD PLAYER AND SIRIUS XM RADIO QUIT WORKING. ONSTAR COULD NOT LOCATE MY VEHICLE. ON JULY 27, 2015 I TOOK MY CAR IN TO HAVE THE GPS/MY LINK FIXED. THEY HAD TO REPLACE THE WHOLE MODULE. BEFORE THE MY LINK FAILURE I KEPT HEARING A ROARING NOISE ON THE CAR AND SOMETIMES SMELLING A BURNING ODOR. I ASKED A LOCAL MECHANIC WHAT THAT COULD BE AND HE GAVE ME THE OPTION OF BALL BEARINGS, TIRES COULD MAKE THE NOISE AND CHECK THE BRAKES. I LOOKED ON YOUR WEBSITE FOR ANY RECALLS ON THE IMPALA AND THERE IS A RECALL FOR THE EMERGENCY BRAKE PADS STICKING TO THE TIRE THAT COULD RESULT IN A FIRE. I ASKED THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT TO FIX THE BRAKES RECALL. I WAS TOLD THERE IS NO FIX FOR THE BRAKES, BECAUSE THEY HAVEN'T RECEIVED THE SOFTWARE. I ASKED THE OWNER TO REFUND MY MONEY, BECAUSE I WAS AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR. HE DIDN'T WANT TO DO THAT AND TOLD ME IT WAS A USED CAR. I COULD TRADE THE CAR FOR ANOTHER VEHICLE AS A USED CAR TRADE IN. THIS DEALERSHIP KNEW THERE WAS A SAFETY RISK WITH THE BRAKES AND NO REPAIR FOR THE POSSIBLE FAILURE AND STILL SOLD ME THIS VEHICLE. THEY FAILED TO DISCLOSE THIS INFORMATION TO ME. IF MY CAR CAUGHT FIRE GOING DOWN AN INTERSTATE I WOULD NOT KNOW IT UNTIL IT WAS TOO LATE, PLUS I TAKE MY 83 YR OLD MOTHER IN THE CAR; I MAY NOT HAVE TIME TO GET HER OUT. THIS DEALERSHIP DID NOT CARE ABOUT MY SAFETY IN DRIVING THIS CAR. I WAS GIVEN A IMPALA LOANER WHILE THEY REPAIRED THE GPS AND IT ALSO HAS A BURNING ODOR. GENERAL MOTORS DOES NOT NEED TO SELL ANY CARS WITH THIS ISSUE UNTIL A FIX IS GIVEN. I COULD SEE IF I HAD THE CAR BEFORE A RECALL NOTICE, BUT I BOUGHT IT AFTER THE RECALL. THIS IS PURE NEGLIGENCE ON GENERAL MOTORS PART AND RED RIVER CHEVY. I WANT ALL OF MY MONEY BACK.

LT MODEL. HEADLIGHTS ARE EXTREMELY INADEQUATE SUCH THAT THEY REPRESENT A HAZARD WHEN DRIVING ON UNLIT ROADS. THEY SEND FORWARD A FOCUSED BEAM WITH NO LIGHT COVERING THE SIDES OR OVERHEAD. THIS MAKES IT VERY DIFFICULT TO TURN ON TO A SIDE ROAD BECAUSE THERE IS NO ILLUMINATION OF THE ROAD YOU ARE TURNING ONTO UNTIL YOU HAVE ACTUALLY MADE THE TURN. IT IS ALSO EASY TO MISS EXIT RAMPS. OVERHEAD SIGNS AND SIGNS AT THE SIDES OF EXITS ARE USUALLY UNREADABLE. THE LOW BEAMS ACTUALLY HAVE A SHUTTER COVERING THE TOP OF THE BULB (I GUESS THAT'S WHAT MAKES THEM LOW BEAMS) SO OBJECTS MUCH ABOVE THE LEVEL OF THE TOP OF THE CAR ARE NOT ILLUMINATED. WHEN DRIVING ON HILLY COUNTRY ROADS, THE CUTOFF ON TOP MAKES THE APPROACHING HILL JUST ABOUT INVISIBLE. WHEN DRIVING IN THE RAIN, IT IS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE LANE MARKINGS, ETC. THE CAR ALSO DOES NOT OFFER FOG LIGHTS AS AN OPTION SO THERE IS NO SUPPLEMENTAL LIGHTING TO ALLEVIATE THE PROBLEM. I STRONGLY URGE A RECALL TO EITHER CHANGE THE HEADLIGHT DESIGN OR TO INSTALL SUPPLEMENTARY LIGHTING SUCH AS FOG LIGHTS TO BETTER ILLUMINATE THE PAVEMENT AND THE AREAS TO THE SIDES OF THE ROADWAY.

LATENT DEFECT IN CHEVROLET 2015 IMPALA IGNITION SYSTEMS THAT GM (GENERAL MOTORS) WILL NOT FIX. THE KEYLESS ENTRY FOB WAS REDESIGN FROM PART NUMBER GM/L 22733524 TO PART NUMBER GM 13584829, WHICH HAS RESULTED IN ALL THE PUSH BUTTON SWITCHES NOW RAISED ABOVE THE KEYLESS HOUSING. WITH RAISE SWITCHES ABOVE THE HOUSING, THE TRUNK CAN INADVERTENTLY OPEN WHEN THE FOD IS IN SOMEONES POCKET. THE CAR TRUNK CAN INADVERTENTLY OPEN WHEN THE FODS SWITCH, WHICH IS IN SOMEONES POCKET, IS INADVERTENTLY PRESSED AGAINST SOMETHING WITHOUT THE OWNERS KNOWLEDGE. FOR EXAMPLE: THIS HAS HAPPEN BY JUST SETTING IN A CHAIR WHEN THE FOB PRESSES AGAINST THE CHAIR, OR WHEN LEANING AGAINST SOMETHING LIKE A TABLE OR WALL WITH THE LOWER PART OF THE BODY. GMS OLD KEYLESS ENTRY FOBS SWITCH WERE RECESSED BELOW THE KEYLESS ENTRY FODS HOUSING AND THE OLD DESIGN DID NOT HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM WITH INADVERTENTLY OPENING THE TRUNK. I OWN A 2009 CHEVY COBALT THAT HAS THE OLD KEYLESS ENTRY FOB . THIS MAJOR LATENT DEFECT WILL EXPOSE ELECTRICAL WIRING, AND PERSONAL ITEMS IN THE TRUNK TO RAIN STORMS WHEN THE TRUNK INADVERTENTLY OPENS WITHOUT KNOWLEDGE OF THE CAR OWNER. I CONTEND THAT CHEVROLET LIKELY DID NOT TEST THE CAR WITH THE TRUNK OPEN WHEN RAINING. FURTHERMORE, THE TRUNK CAN INADVERTENTLY OPEN WHILE SHOPPING WITHOUT THE OWNERS KNOWLEDGE RESULTING IN GIFTS, FOOD, AND PERSONAL ITEMS EASILY STOLEN OR DAMAGE BY RODENTS. I E-MAILED AND CALLED CHEVROLET ABOUT THE LATENT DEFECT. I TALKED TO A JENNIFER AT GM (COMPLAINT NUMBER 8-154-782-3093) PHONE NUMBER 866-790-5700 EXT 5921542 ON 1 SEPTEMBER 2015. JENNIFER TOLD ME THAT GM HAS NO FIX FOR THE PROBLEM AND WOULD ONLY FIX THE LATENT DEFECT IF GM RECEIVED ENOUGH COMPLAINTS. SHE DID NOT SAME HOW MANY COMPLAINTS GM NEEDED MAYBE 150% OF CAR OWNERS COMPLAINING OR 2,000S OF CAR FIRES!

SUNROOF EXPLODED! I WAS DRIVING MY NEW, 3 WEEK OLD, 2015 CHEVY IMPALA LTZ ON THE HIGHWAY DOING ABOUT 65 MPH, WHEN THERE WAS A LOUD EXPLOSION AND MY RETRACTABLE PANEL OF THE SUNROOF HAD EXPLODED, WITHOUT CAUSE, AND BLEW OUTWARD. FORTUNATELY THERE WAS NO ONE ELSE IN THE CAR AS THE PASSENGER SEAT AND REAR SEATS WERE COVERED WITH SHARDS OF GLASS. THE REMAINING GLASS IN THE FRAME WAS ALL BENT OUTWARD WHICH MADE IT APPEAR THAT THERE WAS AN INTERNAL EXPLOSION TO PUSH MOST OF THE GLASS UP AND OUT OF THE CAR. WHY THE MFG DOESN'T USE SAFETY GLASS, LIKE THE WINDSHIELD, INSTEAD OF TEMPERED GLASS WHICH BREAKS INTO A THOUSAND PIECES IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. FORTUNATELY I WAS ABLE TO MAINTAIN CONTROL OF THE CAR. THERE WAS NOTHING THAT HIT THE SUNROOF GLASS, IT JUST EXPLODED ON ITS OWN. *TR

WHEN THE SUN ENTERS THE INTERIOR, WHILE DRIVING, THE CHROME TRIM , ESPECIALLY THE STEERING WHEEL BOWTIE REFLECTS INTO THE EYES. CAUSING A DANGEROUS SITUATION.

EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED AND SHOCKED WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT FOR THE FIRST TIME ON A COUNTRY ROAD IN THIS VEHICLE. THE PROJECTOR BEAM HALOGENS UTTERLY FAIL TO ILLUMINATE THE ROADWAY IN A MANNER ANY COMPETENT DRIVER WOULD CONSIDER TO BE ADEQUATE OR MOST IMPORTANTLY SAFE! DEALER OF COURSE SAYS THIS IS "FACTORY" AND CONSIDERED NORMAL. I HAVE CONCLUDED THAT THIS HEADLIGHT DESIGN IS ADEQUATE FOR MOST URBAN (SEMI LIGHTED) HIGHWAY BUT NECESSARILY DANGEROUS FOR RURAL DRIVERS. I WILL BE ON THE LOOKOUT FOR A NEWLY DESIGNED HEADLAMP OFFERING FROM GM. MY FIX IS TO INTENTIONALLY AIM THE (LOW BEAMS) EXTREMELY LOW AND JUST USE THE (HIGH BEAMS) FULL TIME WHICH AT LEAST ALLOWS ALL THE AVAILABLE LIGHT TO BE UTILIZED WITH NO ILL AFFECT TO ONCOMING DRIVERS SINCE THE BEAM IS SO DIM! OH, ALSO IT SEEMS THERE ARE NO PROVISIONS (ADJUSTABILITY) THAT I CAN SEE FOR SIDE TO SIDE AIMING? *TR

WHEN I RECEIVED MY BRAND NEW CAR FROM THE DEALER, BEFORE I EVEN DROVE IT, THERE WAS EXCESS MOISTURE INSIDE OF BOTH HEADLIGHTS. THIS MOISTURE CAN DIMINISH THE HEADLIGHT AND TURN SIGNAL FUNCTION,AND CORRODE THE ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS. THE MOISTURE IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM. WORKING WITH DEALER TO FIX THIS IF POSSIBLE. *TR

SEVERE VIBRATION WITH FOOT ON BRAKE PEDAL TRANSMISSION IN DRIVE, THE COLDER THE OUTSIDE TEMP. THE WORSE THE VIBRATION GETS. BEEN TO DEALERSHIP 6 TIMES DIFFERENT REPAIRS MADE NOTHING WORKED. I HAVE ALL REPAIR DOCUMENTS. CHEVROLET ACKNOWLEGED THE PROBLEM HOWEVER HAS NO SOLUTION.
