Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2001 CHEVROLET IMPALA. I HAVE HAD MY CAR SINCE FEBRUARY OF 2009 AND IT IS A TERRIFIC CAR WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE CAR CUTS OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC, ON THE HIGHWAY AND ANYWHERE IT LIKES. I COULD BE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND THE CAR JUST CUTS OFF. THE BATTERY LIGHT COMES ONE AND I TURN THE CAR SWITCH OFF AND BACK ON AND IT STARTS UP AGAIN. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO SEVERAL PLACES AND NO ONE SEEMS TO KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS FOR A PERSON TO BE DRIVING AND THIS HAPPEN TO THEM. I HAVE GONE ON THE 2001 CHEVROLET IMPALA WEBSITE FOR RECALLS, DEFECTS, AND OTHER ISSUES AND THERE ARE SOOO MANY IMPALA'S WITH THIS SAME ISSUE. I HAVE THREE SMALL CHILDREN AND THIS IS NOT SAFE BUT IT IS MY ONLY SOURCE OF TRANSPORTATION. *TR
