NHTSA Complaint #10297767 — 2007 CHEVROLET IMPALA

TRANSMISSION "SLIPS" THEN ENGAGES HARD. HAS PROGRESSIVELY GOTTEN WORSE. HAD TRANSMISSION SERVICE JUST ABOUT A YEAR AGO, FLUID HAS BEEN CLEAN AND FULL. I WAS MAKING A RIGHT HAND TURN AND STARTED TO GO BUT THE CAR WOULD BARELY PICK UP SPEED, THE ENGINE REVVED THEN AFTER ABOUT 3 SECONDS IT JERKED HARD AND RESUMED ACCELERATION. MY LOCAL DEALER AND GM THEMSELVES FLAT-OUT LIES ABOUT THE ISSUES WITH THIS CAR (HAS HAD ALL THE COMMON THINGS, TIRE WEAR, BAD ROTORS, MOTOR MOUNTS, WINDOW SCREECHING, STEERING NOISES, REMOTE ENTRY, YOU KNOW, TYPICAL IMPALA) SO UNLIKELY IT WILL GO TO DEALER FOR DIAGNOSIS. THEY WILL LIKELY SAY IT'S DUE TO POSITION OF THE MOON AND DIRECTION OF THE WIND. JUST HOPE THIS DOES NOT CAUSE ACCIDENT BEFORE I CAN DITCH THIS CAR OR NHTSA GETS ON GM'S CASE FOR THESE DEFECT RIDDEN CARS! *TR
