NHTSA Complaint #11193219 — 2014 CHEVROLET IMPALA

THE REAR SIDE DETECTION MODULES CORRODED DUE TO BAD PLACEMENT ON THE VEHICLE. THE MODULE IS DIRECTLY BEHIND THE REAR WHEEL WITHOUT ANY SHIELDING, SO WHEN THE SNOW AND SALT FROM THE WINTER CAME OFF THE TIRE, IT WOULD LAND DIRECTLY ON THE READ SIDE DETECTION MODULE CAUSING CORROSION. THERE ARE A TON OF FORUMS ONLINE SUCH AS HERE HTTPS://WWW.CARGURUS.COM/CARS/DISCUSSION-T54868_DS885696. CHEVY HAD THIS PROBLEM IN 2014.5-2016 MODEL BUT WON'T COVER IT EVEN THOUGH THEY CHANGED THE MODULES IN NEWER MODELS TO PROTECT AGAINST THE ELEMENTS BETTER. THEY KNOW THERE IS A PROBLEM BUT REFUSE TO FIX IT FOR OLDER MODELS.
