TRANSMISSION REPLACED FOR THE 3RD TIME WITH 140009 MILES ON 2006 IMPALA SS
ON A 2006 CHEVY IMPALA, THE AIR BAG INDICATOR LIGHT ON DASHBOARD CAME ON AND REMAINED ON. CAR WAS TAKEN TO CHEVROLET DEALER WHO SAID IT WOULD BE QUITE EXPENSIVE TO REPAIR, SO LETTING IT GO. RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET REVEALS THIS PROBLEM. ALSO SAW A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN RELATED TO CODES RELATING TO AIR BAG LIGHT REMAINING ON. DANGER HERE IS THAT THIS SHOULD BE FIXED BY CHEVROLET WITH A RECALL, BUT NO RECALL AS OF YET. THIS DEFECT SHOULD BE FIXED BY CHEVROLET. SOMEONE IS GOING TO DIE BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE NOT BEING RECALLED BY CHEVROLET. *TR
MY 2006 CHEVROLET IMPALA HAS NOTHING BUT ISSUES. WINDOW SCRATCH WHEN GOING UP AND DOWN, TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR NEEDS REPLACED, REMOTE START HAS NO DISTANCE, WATER PUMP LEAKAGE, TRANSMISSION LINE LEAKING, ROTORS, TIRES AND ALIGNMENT WEAR OUT PREMATURELY. *TR
THE 2006 CHEVROLET IMPALA HAD A TECHNICAL BULLETIN ON A POWER STEERING HOSE I WAS NEVER NOTIFED OFF. THE HOSE EXPLODED, AND THE CAR COULD NOT MOVE. IT WAS TOWED TO THE 1ST DEALERSHIP. THEY SAID IT WAS FIXED, BUT IT WOULD NOT STEER OUT OF THE BAY. THEY FLUSHED THE POWER STEERING UNIT, AND WITH DAYS IT WOULD NOT STEER PROPERLY. I TOOK IT TO ANOTHER DEALERSHIP, WHICH AFTER TWO VISITS, DETERMINED IT NEEDED A NEW POWER STEERING PUMP. THEN THE ACCELERATOR STUCK TO THE FLOOR WHILE TURNING. THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP AND A NEW ACCELRATOR WAS INSTALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS RETURNED TO ME AGAIN AND ATHE STEERING WENT OUT, THIS TIME, I NEARLY HIT A TELEPHONE POLE WHILE TURNING. THE DEALERSHIP TOOK THE CAR IN AND REPLACED THE RACK AND PINION. THE CAR AGAIN DID NOT STEER PROPERLY, AND I NEARLY HIT A PHONE POLE...
2006 CHEVY IMPALA SS HAS HAD SEVERAL MECHANICAL ISSUES MOST RECENTLY FLAT TIRES. THE FIRST INCIDENT WAS A FRONT RIGHT TIRE LOOSING AIR SLOWLY. TODAY THE FRONT LEFT TIRE WENT FLAT SUDDENLY AND ON THE INTERSTATE. THE DAMAGED SECTION OF TIRE WAS ON THE INSIDE AND APPEARED TO HAVE BEEN PUNCTURED BY ANOTHER PIECE OF THE SUSPENSION. THE DEALER SHIP INSISTS THAT I NEED TO PAY FOR REPAIRS EVERYTIME. THE CAR IS AN UNBELIEVABLE INCONVENIENCE. *JB
