NHTSA Complaint #10303499 — 2003 CHEVROLET IMPALA

CHEVROLET IMPALA 2003: CAR WON'T START OR EVEN TURN OVER WHEN HOT. AFTER ENGINE COOL DOWN START AGAIN AS NORMAL AS NEW. IF I TURN THE ENGINE OFF AFTER DRIVING FEW MILES I SEE ON THE INFORMATION CENTRE THE PASSLOCK WARNING, RADIO IS DEAD, INTERIOR LIGHTS ARE DEAD, AND IF I TRY TO CRANK THE ENGINE ABSOLUTELY NOTHING HAPPEN. I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM EVEN WHEN THE CAR WAS RUNNING OK LET'S SAY THE NIGHT BEFORE, NEXT DAY IN THE MORNING IN A SUNNY DAY THE CAR GETS WARM WITH THE SUN JUST BY SEATING ON MY DRIVEWAY AND IF I TRY TO START THE ENGINE I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. I HAVE TO PUSH IT UNDER A TREE, OPEN HOOD AND DOORS LET IT SEATING ON THE SHADE FOR FEW MINUTES AND WHEN THE BODY IS COLD, THE CAR START NORMALLY. THIS IS DRIVING ME CRAZY BECAUSE I CANT USE MY CAR DURING THE SUMMER (IT WON'T START), AND DURING SPRING, FALL, AND WINTER I HAVE TO LEAVE THE ENGINE RUNNING WHILE I DO MY SHOPPING AND OTHER STUFF. THIS IS A RISK, MY CAR CAN BE STOLEN AND IS TOO MUCH GAS CONSUMPTION. THANKS FOR YOUR ATTENTION. HOW CAN I FIX THIS PROBLEM. I TOOK MY CAR TO GM DEALER BUT THEY CHANGED BCM AND BATTERY BUT NEVER FIX THE REAL PROBLEM. *TR
