Consumer Description

MY 2003 CHEVROLET IMPALA LS HAS HAD THIS PROBLEM FOR YEARS AND EVERYONE ELSE WITH THE IMPALA HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. WHY IS THERE NO RECALL? THE DEALERSHIPS HAVE BEEN CHARGING PEOPLE $600 TO CHANGE THE IGNITIAN THAT DOESN'T EVEN FIX THE PROBLEM. THAT IS WHAT THEY CHARGED ME 3 YEARS AGO. THE CAR WILL NOT START ONCE IN AWHILE AND YOU HAVE TO WAIT 15-20 MINUTES FOR IT TO FINALLY START. IT STARTED OUT EVERY OTHER MONTH THEN EVERY MONTH THEN TWICE A MONTH. NOW IN 2010 IT HAPPENS 2-3 TIMES A WEEK FOR ME. HERE IS ONE OF THE MANY FORUMS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM HTTP://64.13.204.178/CHEVROLET/IMPALA/2002/ELECTRICAL/PASSLOCK_PROBLEM_WONT_START_AND_SECURITY_LIGHT_IS_ON.SHTML
