  "TAKATA RECALL" MY VEHICLE IGNITION SWITCH HAS WENT OUT AND MY " SERVICE AIR BAG " LIGHT HAS CAME ON AS WELL. I SEARCHED MY VIN NUMBER ON THIS SITE AND "0 RECALLS" SHOWS UP AS A RESULT. HOWEVER ITS HARD TO BELIEVE THAT THE EXACT SAME PROBLEMS THAT WAS ONCE RECALLED ARE BOTH IN TACT ON MY VEHICLE. IN ADDITION TO, I RECENTLY SEARCHED "IGNITION SWITCH RECALL" ON THE RECALL LIST AND "CHEVY IMPALA 2013 " CAME UP AS RESULT AND THAT IS CURRENTLY THE VEHICLE IM DRIVING AND THAT IS THE PROBLEM IM HAVING. I REACHED OUT THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY INFORMED SAID MY VEHICLE ISN'T LISTED FOR RECALLS HOWEVER LIKE STATED BEFORE I HAVE THAT SAME VEHICLE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM AND NOTHING CAN BE DONE. TO ADD MORE INFORMATION DEALERSHIP EVEN INFORMED THAT THE RECALL HAS EXPIRED BUT THE PROBLEM HAD JUST BEGUN.

• 12/29/2017· STEERING,ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)

  STABILITRACK AND TRACTION CONTROL WILL RANDOMLY FAIL WHILE BACKING AND DRIVING. ESPECIALLY WITH RIGHT HAND STEERING INPUT. MANY TIMES WHILE DRIVING AND TURING RIGHT, STANILITRACK AND TRACTION CONTROL WILL ALERT FAILURE AND THE INPUT FROM THE ACCELERATOR WILL CEASE CAUSING SLOW TIRING LEADING TO NEAR MISS TRAFFIC COLLISIONS. CHEVY CAN NOT FIND PROBLEM AND NUMEROUS ONLINE REPORTS OF THE SAME ISSUE. ON GOING ISSUE.

  WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOP WHILE TURNING LEFT, ABS ENGAGES AND BRAKES LEFT FRONT WHEEL CREATING A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION STOPPING THE CAR IN INTERSECTIONS WITHOUT WARNING. SERVICE STABILITRAK, SERVICE ABS AND SERVICE BRAKE ASSIST MESSAGES ALSO APPEAR ON DASHBOARD MESSAGE CENTER. ALL WARNING LIGHTS RESET WHEN VEHICLE IS TURNED OFF, UNTIL A LEFT TURN IS MADE WHILE ACCELERATING AGAIN, AND THE ABOVE ISSUES OCCUR AGAIN.

• 12/09/2016· WHEELS

  "TAKATA RECALL" WHEN I TURN MY WHEEL TO THE LEFT AND PROCEED TO DRIVE . THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT COMES ON AND I HEAR A RUBBING NOISE. I HAVE HAD IT LOOKED AT AND THEY DON'T BELIEVE THE WHEEL HUB OR BEARINGS IS BAD. I HAVE NOTICED OTHER IMPALA OWNERS ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. MY VEHICLE IS 78,000 MILES AND MY BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED. I FEEL THAT THIS SHOULD BE FIXED BY CHEVROLET BY A RECALL. ASAP I AM NEEDING TO DRIVE ACROSS THE COUNTRY OF ROUND TRIP MILES OF 4,000. VERY SCARED TO DRIVE MY CAR , AFRAID THAT IT IS THE BEARING AND WILL LOCK UP ON ME ON THE FREEWAY. PLEASE TAKE IMMEDIATE ATTENTION TO THIS PROBLEM. *TR

• 12/06/2019· ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)

  WHILE ON THE FREEWAY THE SERVICE STABILITY TRACTION LIGHT CAME ON AND I BEGIN TO LOOSE POWER I TRIED PUSHING THE OFF BUTTON AFTER A FEW MILES IT WENT BACK TO NORMAL AND THE NEXT DAY IT HAPPENED AGAIN SO I PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND TURNED THE CAR OFF HOPING TO RESET IT BUT THE CAR WOULD NOT START BACK UP. I'VE HAD MY STARTER CHECKED, MY BATTERY, MY ALTERNATOR ALL THOSE CAME OUT FINE BUT THE CAR WON'T START AND THE MECHANICS ARE SAYING THEY HAVEN'T SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THIS BEFORE THAT THE TRACTION SYSTEM WILL KEEP THE CAR FROM STARTING. ALSO PRIOR TO THIS I WOULD HEAR A THROOTLING SOUND AS WELL TO ME IT SOUNDED LIKE A TIRE WAS LOOSE SO K EVEN HAD THAT CHECKED BUT I BELIEVE IT'S CONNECTED TO THIS TRACTION LIGHT THAT CAME OWN BEFORE THE CAR WAS TURNED OFF.

• 12/03/2016· ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)

  WHILE DRVING AT ANY SPEED THE STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM ACTIVATED RESULTING IN REDUCED POWER, LEFT SIDE NOISE FROM WHEEL AND RUMBLING IN THE BRAKE PEDAL. TOOK IT TO MY LOCAL CHEVY SHOP AND PAID OVER 500 DOLLARS TO REPLACE "GYRO". COUPLE OF WEEKS LATER HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. RETURNED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT MY ALTERNATOR WAS BAD. HAD IT CHECKED OUT AND THE ALTERNATOR HAS NO PROBLEMS OR CODES WHEN IT WAS CHECKED. THE ONLY CODES THAT SHOWS POINT TO THE STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM!!!. FUSTRATED WITH CHEVY DO TO LACK OF CONCERN. CONSIDERING THE LEMON LAW AS A MEANS OF FIXING THE PROBLEM. THIS IS MY LAST CHEVY PRODUCT!!!!!!

  TAKATA RECALL- FAULTY AC FLAP. CAUSES THE AC TO MAKE LOUD POPPING NOISE AND DRAINS ENERGY FROM THE BATTERY.

• 11/29/2019· ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC),SERVICE BRAKES

  THE SERVICE STABILITRAK/ABS/BRAKE CONTROL LIGHTS TURN ON AND OFF INCESSANTLY REGARDLESS OF WHETHER I'M MOVING, TURNING, BREAKING, ETC. IT'S SEEMINGLY COMPLETELY RANDOM. EVERY IME THEY DO, THE CAR DINGS, MAKING THE RIDE UNBEARABLE ("DING, DING, DING...DING, DING, DING" AD NASEUM). THIS HAPPENED BEFORE AND I HAD THE VEHICLE SERVICED UNDER WARRANTY, A LITTLE OVER 1.5 YEARS AGO. IT'S NOW HAPPENING AGAIN. COUNTLESS REPORTS ON FORUMS INDICATE THAT IT'S A VERY COMMON ISSUE WITH THE WIRING HARNESS GOING TO THE HUB ASSEMBLY. GM SHOULD RECALL THIS. IT'S DISTRACTING, UNSAFE, AND SEEMINGLY UNFIXABLE IN THE LONG TERM. THIS WILL BE THE SECOND TIME I'VE FIXED THIS IN LESS THAN 50,000 MILES DRIVEN.

WHEN I STOP AND PARK THE VEHICLE, I AM ABLE TO SHIFT THE LEVER TO THE "PARK" POSITION, BUT THE VEHICLE IS NOT ACTUALLY IN PARK POSITION. I CURRENTLY HAVE THE EMERGENCY BREAK ON. VEHICLE WILL NOT STAY IN PARK WHEN GEAR IS IN PARK POSITION. THE LIGHTEST TOUCH WILL KNOCK GEAR SHIFT INTO REVERSE AND CAR ROLLS AWAY.

• 11/21/2016· VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL,ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)

  BOUGHT MY 2013 IMPALA USED BUT AROUND 25000 MILES STARTED GETTING ISSUES WITH TURNING LEFT AND ACCELERATING. THE TRACTION CONTROL WILL ENGAGE AND CAUSE THE CAR TO HESITATE. BIG ISSUE WHEN TRYING TO CROSS IN FRONT OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC. HAD INTO THE DEALER MANY TIMES BUT THEY DO NOT SEEM TO KNOW WHAT THE ISSUE IS. TWICE I HAVE HAD ALL THE LIGHTS GO OFF AND POWER REDUCED WHILE ON THE INTERSTATE. THEY HAVE REPLACED THE COMPUTER TWICE FOR THAT ONE. THIS MIGHT BE MY LAST CHEVY. 3/36 WARRANTY IS A JOKE ANYMORE!

• 11/04/2015· ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)

  TRACTION CONTROL ACTIVATES WHILE MAKING LEFT TURN WHEN LEAVING A STOP OR A RED LIGHT OR AT ANY OTHER OCCASION THAT REQUIRES MAKING A LEFT TURN AFTER BEING STOPPED. CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO HESITATE AND IN THE PROCESS CREATING A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. THIS HAS OCCURRED ON FIVE DIFFERENT OCCASIONS DURING THE PAST FEW DAYS. HAS ONLY OCCURRED WHEN TURNING LEFT FROM A COMPLETE STOP. THERE SEEMS TO BE A METAL SOUND THE FOURTH TIME. HAVE TRIED TO GET IT LOOKED AT AND NO ONE SEEMS TO KNOW WHAT TO DO. VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF DRIVING THIS CAR. ALSO DONE IT ONCE WHEN I WAS BACKING OUT FROM A PARKED POSITION.

• 11/03/2016· ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)

LIGHT STAYS ON 5-10 MINUTES GOES OUT RANDOMLY DEALERS BAFFLED FOR THE CAUSE, DEALER SAYS UNLESS THEY CAN DUPLICATE IT, WARNING LIGHT TO COME ON THEY CAN'T SERVICE. ,I WENT FOR AN OIL CHANGE AT MIDAS THEY CHECKED IT SAID IT WAS THE WHEEL BEARING SENSOR THAT GOVERNS THAT I REPLACE THE WHEEL BEARING , OKAY FOR A WHILE NOW BACK ON AGAIN IN LESS THAN A THOUSAND MILES. STABILITY CONTROL IS VERY VALUABLE FOR CARS NOWADAYS SO THIS IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY FACTOR IF STABILITY CONTROL IS LOST. REPORTS ON THE INTERNET OF PEOPLE REPLACING ALL THE WHEEL BEARINGS ON THE FRONT HUBS AND EVERYTHING AND STILL HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM SO THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED INCIDENT. *TR

  WHEN ACCELERATING FROM STOPPED POSITION, ESPECIALLY WHEN TURNING TO EITHER SIDE, EXPERIENCED A GRINDING NOISE, LOSS OF POWER, DIMMING LIGHTS, AND ABS LIGHT COMING ON. GRINDING NOISE COMES FROM LOWER ENGINE AREA IN FRONT OF VEHICLE. REPEATED OCCURRENCES ARE BECOMING MORE FREQUENT. NOT KNOWN WHAT THE PROBLEM IS, BUT APPEARS TO BE TIED TO ABS/ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. POSTINGS OF SIMILAR SITUATIONS HAVE APPEARED IN VARIOUS WEBSITES DEALING WITH FREQUENT PROBLEMS OF SPECIFIC VEHICLES. GM DEALER CHARGED ME DIAGNOSIS FEE, BUT FOUND NOTHING. GM DEALER SAID IN ORDER TO FIND THE PROBLEM I WOULD HAVE TO BRING CAR IN WHEN ABS LIGHT WAS ON. I AM CONCERNED THAT I AM DUE FOR A SIGNIFICANT FAILURE BEFORE DEALER FINDS THE PROBLEM, OR ACKNOWLEDGES SAME. ALTHOUGH I REFERENCE ONE DATE OF OCCURRENCE, THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR 6 MONTHS WITH INCREASING EVENTS AS OF LATE.

AFTER TODAY, I AM NOT TO HAPPY WITH MY 2013 CHEVROLET IMPALA LTZ. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS CONTINUING PROBLEM WITH THESE CARS.

• 10/15/2019· STEERING

  I HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH STEERING CONTROL IN THIS VEHICLE EVER SINCE I BOUGHT IT FROM SERPENTINI CHEVROLET IN STRONGSVILLE, OHIO. CHEVROLET SERVICE DEPARTMENT REPLACED THE LEFT FRONT HUB AND BEARING ASSEMBLY ON 6/9/16 AT 34,770 WHEN THE CAR WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. ON 8/3/18, WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS OUT OF WARRANTY AT 60039 MILES, THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT TOLD ME THAT THE STEERING GEAR WAS LEAKING AND IT WOULD BE AN $1829.50 REPAIR. THE SYMPTOMS I AM EXPERIENCING NOW ARE THE SAME AS WHEN THE CAR WAS UNDER WARRANTY AND NOT REPAIRED CORRECTLY. IT MAKES A SCRAPING OR GRINDING NOISE WHEN YOU TURN. IF I ADD POWER STEERING FLUID, THE PROBLEM GOES AWAY, WHICH LEADS ME TO BELIEVE THAT THIS WAS THE PROBLEM ALL ALONG. I CHECKED ONLINE AND IT SEEMS TO ME THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING THIS SAME ISSUE WHICH USUALLY ONLY GETS IDENTIFIED AFTER THE CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY. I BELIEVE GM SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO DO A RECALL BEFORE SOMEONE HAS A SERIOUS ACCIDENT.
