NHTSA Complaint #10542998 — 2009 CHEVROLET IMPALA

TODAY MUST OF BEEN A RECORD FOR HOW MANY TIMES MY IMPALA SHUT ITSELF OFF! I LOST COUNT AT ABOUT 20 TIMES! IM OVER A HUNDRED MILES AWAY FROM HOME AT MY PARENTS HOUSE AND ON MY ATTEMPT TO GET HOME THE IMPALA WOULDN'T LET ME DRIVE MORE THAN 10 MINUTES. BECAUSE OF THIS I HAVE NOW HAD TO CALL OFF WORK AND AM OUT OF A DAYS WAGE BECAUSE I MADE THE MISTAKE OF BUYING THIS CAR. I HAVE NO MONEY AND CANT GET THIS FIXED FOR AWHILE BUT IT SEEMS THAT I MAY HAVE TO CHOSE BETWEEN EATING THIS MONTH OR FIXING THIS SO I GUESS ILL JUST GO HUNGRY. I'VE BEEN SEARCHING THIS SITE FOR OTHER YEAR IMPALAS AND IT SEEMS THAT EVERY SINGLE YEAR IS HAVING THIS ISSUE, EVEN THE 2014 MODELS! THIS HAS MADE ME REACH THE CONCLUSION THAT THE NHTSA DOESN'T REALLY CARE ABOUT OUR SAFETY NOR DO THEY ATTEMPT TO SOLVE ANY PROBLEMS BASED ON HOW MANY TIMES THIS COMPLAINT GETS REPORTED AND DOES ANYTHING EVER HAPPEN!? THE ANSWER IS NO! SO IM BASICALLY WRITING THIS TO INFORM OTHERS WHO PLAN ON GETTING AN IMPALA, PLEASE FOR THE SAFETY OF YOURSELF, THOSE AROUND YOU, AND YOUR WALLET DON'T! THIS IS MY LAST GM CAR I WILL EVER PURCHASE! NOT THAT GM REALLY CARES BECAUSE THEY ALREADY GOT MY $60,000 FOR MY LAST 3 CARS SO THIS PROBLEM WILL NEVER GET RECALLED, NOR WILL THIS WEBSITE ATTEMPT TO PROVIDE ANY TYPE OF HELP SO SAVE YOURSELF THE HEADACHE AND BUY FOREIGN. *TR
