NHTSA Complaint #10822245 — 2008 CHEVROLET IMPALA

THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN RECALLED DUE TO AIR BAGS, AND IN A YEAR NO ONE HAS BEEN ABLE TO GET THE REPAIRS DONE TO THE VEHICLE. BUT FURTHERMORE THE CAR HAS SEVERAL OTHER MECHANICAL ISSUES THAT I AM SHOWING AS A TREND WITH IMPALAS BEING THAT MY SISTER AND COUSIN HAVE ONE ALSO IN DIFFERENT YEARS, THE CAR MAKES A TICKING NOISE WHEN THE AIR OR HEAT IS TURNED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE DELIVERS OPPOSITE TEMP AS THE DRIVER SO IF AIR IS ON THE PASSENGER WILL DELIVER HEAT AND VICE VERSA. IF THE CAR GOES OVER A SPEED BUMP THE ENGINE REDUCES POWER AND SERVICE STABILITRAK APPEARS ACROSS THE LIGHTING AS WELL AS THE CAR DROPPING OUT OF GEAR IF I GO OVER ANY BUMP. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS ESPECIALLY BEING THAT MY CHILDREN AND I WERE IN THIS CAR AND IT DECIDED TO DO THIS ON THE INTERSTATE AT NIGHT IN 70 MPH TRAFFIC. AFTER DOING RESEARCH ON THE VEHICLE I AM SHOWING THAT I AM NOT THE ONLY PERSON WITH ALL OF THESE PROBLEMS LISTED, AND IT BOTHERS ME THAT NONE OF THESE ISSUES HAVE BEEN RECALLED JUST AS THE AIR BAGS WERE EVEN THOUGH I THINK THE RECALL, IS JUST TO SAVE FACE BECAUSE NO ONE IS ACTUALLY DOING THE WORK TO GET THEM FIXED. AT FIRST I THOUGHT THESE THINGS WERE JUST MECHANICAL PROBLEMS WITH AGE OF CAR BUT AFTER RESEARCH THESE ARE ISSUES THAT ARE IN CARS MADE IN THIS TIME FRAME AND WARRANTS A RECALL FOR THE SAFETY OF CONSUMERS.
