2015 CHEVROLET IMPALA Electrical System Problems

TAKATA RECALL. SIDE DETECTION SERVICE MESSAGE CENTER LIGHT IS A DAILY MESSAGE. ALSO RADIO BLACK SCREEN. RADIO SHORT,DASH BLACK SCREEN.

WHILE DRIVING, SIDE DETECTION ERROR. ALL GAUGES STARTED JUMPING AROUND AND NOT WORKING. AFTER SHUT OFF CAR AND TRIED TO RESTART, IT WOULDN'T TURN OVER. CHECKED AND BATTERY WAS OK BUT IGNITION WAS ACTING LIKE NO POWER. TOW TRUCK TO THE DEALER. DEALER SAID IT WAS A KNOWN ISSUE AND THEY WOULD REPAIR FOR FREE. THAT WAS 6 WEEKS AGO AND IT IS STILL SITTING AT DEALER BECAUSE THE PART IS ON BACK ORDER. CHEVROLET WILL NOT COVER THE COST OF A RENTAL VEHICLE. I HAVE TALKED TO 4 DIFFERENT PEOPLE (I HAVE KEPT ESCALATING) OVER A 3 WEEK PERIOD - HOWEVER WITH NO RESOLUTION. AFTER MY LAST REQUEST FOR ESCALATION, THEY SAID I WOULD GET A CALL BACK IN 3-5 DAYS. THAT WAS 2 WEEKS AGO AND I'VE NEVER RECEIVED A CALL BACK. DEALERSHIP IS UNABLE TO PROVIDE AN ESTIMATE OF WHEN THE PART WILL BE AVAILABLE.

BLIND SIDE DETECTION SYSTEM RECALL IS ONLY FOR 5 YEARS AND 80000 MILES. CHEVY KNOWING THIS IS A BAD PART, SHOULD HAVE TO FIX ALL SYSTEMS THAT FAIL DUE TO BAD MODULES.

BLIND SIDE DETECTORS MALFUNCTION, SMELL OF WIRE BURNING IN THE CAR, ALL DASHBOARD SYSTEMS STOPPED WORKING WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY.

BLIND ZONE ALERT MESSAGE IS DISPLAYED ON THE DRIVER INSTRUMENT CLUSTER (DIC) DUE TO WATER INTRUSION. CHEVROLET IS REPLACING THE PART(S) UNDER WARRANTY BUT THE PART(S) ARE CURRENTLY NOT AVAILABLE AND HAVE BEEN ON BACK-ORDER FOR SEVERAL WEEKS. THE FOLLOWING THREE (3) SAFETY FUNCTIONS ARE NOT OPERATING: "REAR CROSS TRAFFIC ALERT", "REAR PARK ASSIST" AND "LANCE CHANGE ALERT WITH SIDE BLIND ZONE ALERT". ALSO HAVE NOTICED THE "FORWARD COLLISION WARNING ALERT" IS NOT FUNCTIONING. GM CUSTOMER CARE STATES THE PART(S) ARE ON ORDER. ESTIMATED DELIVERY TIME IS UNKNOWN.

MY SIDE DETECTION SYSTEM HAS FAILED AND NOT WORKING ON MY 2015 CHEVY IMPALA LT. MY CAR NEARLY CAUGHT ON FIRE TWICE NOW. WHITE SMOKE WAS BILLOWING FROM MY TAILLIGHTS AND BEFORE THAT MY ENTIRE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER WENT DEAD. AT FIRST IT SAID TO HAVE IT SERVICED. THEN MY FOB WOULD NO LONGER UNLOCK MY DOORS WITHOUT MANUALLY USING IT, THE SAME DAY MY CAR WOULD NOT START. I HAD ALL SORTS OF LIGHTS AND WARNINGS GO OFF. MY WHOLE COMPUTER SYSTEM WENT HAYWIRE THUS NOT BEING ABLE TO START MY CAR. AFTER GETTING MY CAR STARTED, I DID NOT HAVE ANY GAUGES, LIGHTS,NOTHING. IT WAS VERY DANGEROUS DRIVING

MY SERVICE AIRBAG LIGHT AS WELL AS CHECK ENGINE LIGHT GO ON AND OFF WITH NO APPARENT REASON. I BELIEVE AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE.

THE TRUNK OF THE CAR LEAKS AROUND THE TWILIGHTS CAUSING THE TWILIGHTS TO SHORT OUT AND WATER TO GET INTO THE TRUNK

SIDE VEHICLE DETECTION GETS HOT AND SMOKES. CAUSING ELECTRICAL MALFUCTION.IN MOTION AND STANDING STILL.

MY CAR HAD LESS THAN 60,000 MILES ON IT WHEN IT FIRST SAID SERVICE SIDE DETECTION, NOW I NO LONGER HAVE BLIND SPOT DETECTION, FRONT CAMERA OR ANY OF THE OTHER SAFETY FEATURES I PAID EXTRA TO HAVE. ITS BECAUSE THE COMPUTER FOR IT IS PLACED NON WEATHER PROTECTED IN THE BUMPER OF THE CAR AND AFTER IT GETS EXPOSED TO OUR WEATHER IT RUINS IT. IT'S A PRICEY FIX THAT WILL JUST KEEP GETTING RUINED. ITS A FAULTY ERROR ON CHEVYS END THIS SHOULD BE RECALLED AND REPLACED. WHEN MINE FIRST WENT OUT I READ ABOUT MANY OTHERS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM, I JUST KEEP WAITING HOPING THAT CHEVY WILL STEP UP AND DO THE RIGHT THING. THIS IS MY 3RD IMPALA I HAVE OWNED, I ALWAYS SWORE THEY WOULD BE MY ONLY CAR BUT NOW THIS WILL BE MY LAST IMPALA I WILL NEVER OWN ANOTHER ONE. WAY...

SIDE BLIND ZONE ALERT IS MALFUNCTIONING. THE DEALER HAS MENTIONED THAT THIS IS DUE TO WATER GETTING INTO THE ELECTRICAL UNIT/MODULE.

ON FEBURARY 2ND MY SIDE DETECTION SERVICE ALERT TURNED ON IN MY INFOTAINMENT CENTER AFTER I STARTED THE CAR.. NOW BOTH SIDES DRIVER AND PASSENGER DETECTORS DONT WORK AT ALL.. I FEEL IT'S THE RESULT OF MOISTURE GETTING INTO THE MODULES.

SIDE DETECTION SYSTEM HAS FAILED AT JUST OVER 38000 MILES.

SIDE DETECTION SYSTEM FAULTED OUT. NOW OTHER ISSUES WITH FRONT CAMERA AND OTHER SYSTEMS FAILING.

OCCASIONALLY THE DASH AND RADIO GO ALL BLACK, GETTING NO POWER. WHEN OPENING OR CLOSING SUNROOF, IT WILL STOP IN THE MIDDLE. IT EITHER STOPS COMPLETELY OR WILL STOP AND GO IN OPPOSITE DIRECTION AS THE BUTTON PUSHED. WHEN STEPPING ON THE BRAKE TO PUSH START, THE BRAKE GETS SUPER HARD AND THE DASH PANEL WILL SAY, 'PRESS BRAKE TO START.' I AM PRESSING THE BRAKE! MOST RECENTLY, 'SIDE DETECTION' IS DISPLAYING ON DASH PANEL AND BLIND SPOT LIGHTS ARE NOT LIGHTING UP ON MIRRORS. I'VE READ A NUMBER OF SIMILAR ISSUES ONLINE WITH THE SAME YEAR. I HAD THIS CAR BACK 7X FOR WATER GETTING IN THE TRUNK. IT LAYS WHERE THE SPARE TIRE IS AND THE CARPET ABOVE IS NEVER WET. EVERY-TIME THE DEALERSHIP SAID IT WAS SOMETHING DIFFERENT. OH AND IT STILL IS GETTING WATER IN THE TRUNK. DEALERSHIP SAID THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE TO DO!...

I HAVE A WARNING ON THE MESSAGE CENTER ASKING TO "SERVICE SIDE DETECTION SYSTEM" I'M FINDING THAT THE LIGHTS ON THE MIRROR WILL SOMETIMES COME ON QUICKLY FOR ONLY A SECOND OR TWO AND THEN SHUT OFF. THEY ARE DOING THIS ON RANDOM OCCASIONS AND OBVIOUSLY NOT WORKING PROPERLY. I FOUND SOME WEBSITES SHOWING WHERE THESE MONITORS ARE AND HAVE FOUND THAT MINE ARE COVERED IN DIRT AND SEEM TO HAVE THE DRIED SALT "WHITE" CRUST ON THEM. MY GUESS, JUST LIKE EVERYONE ELSE IS THAT THEY ARE CORRODED AND NEED REPLACING. THIS SEEMS TO BE A SERIOUS ISSUE THAT NEEDS LOOKING INTO AS THIS CLEARLY IS A SAFETY CONCERN.

OBJECT SENSOR/ CONTROL MODULE CORRODED PREMATURELY OR WAS NOT PROPERLY DESIGNED. I HAVE A DIC LIGHT ON AND WIRING HARNESS CORRODED AS WELL. PART NUMBER 23133813.

THE OBJECT SENSOR MODULES THAT CONTROL SAFETY FEATURES LIKE BLIND SPOT ALERTS AND GAP ALERTS HAVE FAILED CREATING MORE PROBLEMS FOR MY VEHICLE. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN AND SHOULD BE RECALLED BY CHEVY. MY DEALERSHIP SAID THAT MY EXTENDED WARRANTY WILL NOT COVER THIS ISSUE EVEN THOUGH IT IS ULTIMATELY AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM AND NOTHING I DID CREATED THIS MAJOR ISSUE. THIS ISSUE OCCURRED WHILE I WAS DRIVING AND IMMEDIATELY HAD AN EFFECT ON MY DRIVING CONDITION.

SIDE DETECTION MODULES ARE IN AN AREA, REAR BUMPER, WHERE MOISTURE CAN SATURATE THE SENSOR/MODULE WHICH THEN CAUSES A FAULT. THE DASH DISPLAY THEN BEGINS TO FLASH AND TURN OFF AND ON. GAS PEDAL CAN ALSO BE AFFECTED, WHERE YOU CANT CONTROL ACCELERATION. THIS HAPPENS WHEN VEHICLE IS STATIONARY AND IN MOTION.

SIDE BLIND ZONE MONITORING SYSTEM FAILURE. AT APPROXIMATELY 40,000 MILES PASSENGER SIDE SBZM LIGHT WAS CONSISTENTLY ON THEN SYSTEM FAILED. AT APPROXIMATELY 47,000 MILES DRIVER SIDE LIGHT IS CONSISTENTLY ON. SEEMS TO BE A VERY COMMON ISSUE ON THESE CARS

I WAS DRIVING ON 2-LANE ROAD AND THE RIGHT SIDE DETECTION SYSTEM (SDS) INDICATOR LIGHT IN THE SIDE MIRROR CAME ON EVEN WHEN THERE WERE NO CARS OR OBJECTS NEXT TO ME. THE INDICATOR LIGHT WOULD NOT TURN OFF EVEN WHEN THE CAR WAS OFF AND PARKED. NO WARNING MESSAGES CAME UP WHEN THE CAR WAS STARTED. I TURNED THE SDS AND PARK ASSIST OFF IN SETTINGS, BUT THE LIGHT REMAINED ON. I REMOVED FUSE 62 (REAR CAMERA/PARK ASSIST/SIDE BLIND ZONE ALERT) IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT FUSE BLOCK TO GET THE LIGHT OFF. I REINSTALLED THE FUSE AND THE LIGHT REMAINED OFF UNTIL THE NEXT TIME I STARTED THE CAR AND IT TURNED BACK ON AND STAYED ON. A FEW DAYS LATER I GOT A WARNING MESSAGE TO SERVICE THE SDS WHEN I STARTED MY CAR. THE BLIND ZONE ALERT SYSTEM INDICATOR LIGHTS DID NOT COME ON AND THE SYSTEM...

STARTED WITH SIDE DETECTION LIGHT NOT GOING OFF. THEN SERVICE FOR SIDE DETECTION CAME ON. WITHIN A WEEK I HAD MULTIPLE ERRORS AND SERVICES SUCH AS REAR CAMERA, FRONT CAMERA, COLLISON PREP, PARK ASSIST. REPLACED FUSES EVEN THOUGH NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH THEM. SAME LIGHTS. AS THE DAYS GO ON... I AM EXPERIENCING TROUBLES WITH CAR STARTING HAVING TO MANUALLY START/INSERT FOB INTO CENTER CONSOLE. HEATING AND ELECTRICAL INSIDE CAR NOT WORKING, STOPPED IN MIDDLE OF DRIVING AND IT WAS FOGGY AND OBVIOUSLY I COULDN'T DEFROST MY WINDOWS. RESTARTED CAR NUMEROUS TIMES AND THEN HEAT POPPED BACK ON. ALSO IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING IT STATES KEY FOB NOT DETECTED AND IT'S LITERALLY IN THE CUP HOLDER. I HAVE CHANGED THE BATTERY RECENTLY AT THE DEALER SO IT IS NOT A FAULTY FOB OR BATTERY. MY TRUNK HAS BEEN JUST POPPING OPEN FOR NO REASON AND SEVERAL TIMES WHILE I...

WHILE DRIVING, SIDE DETECTION SYSTEM WARNING LIGHT APPEARS. 66800 MILES.

I STARTED MY VEHICLE AND INSTANTLY THE PASSENGER SIDE BLIND SPOT INDICATOR LIGHT CAME ON. EVEN AFTER I SHUT OFF MY VEHICLE; THE INDICATOR LIGHT STAYED ON. IT WOULD CHANGE IN BRIGHTNESS OCCASSIONALLY. I WAS HOPING THAT IT WOULD NOT DRAIN MY BATTERY OVER NIGHT AS I'M NOT A MECHANIC. I CHECKED THE SENSORS ON THE BUMPER FOR CLEANLINESS.

4-4-2019 DROVE TO WORK. NOTICED AFTER PARKING CAR THAT THE SIDE BLIND SPOT WARNING SYSTEM LIGHT WAS "ON": TURNED CAR ON AND THEN OFF, BUT IT STILL STAYS LIT. THIS WILL RESULT IN THE CAR BATTERY BEING DRAINED, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM BEING FRIED, OR THE SENSOR EVENTUALLY BURNING OUT. NOT SURE WHICH

BLIND SPOT DETECTION HAS FAILED AGAIN. SERVICE SIDE DETECTION ERROR IN DASH DISPLAY THE SYSTEM FAILED UNDER WARRANT IT HAS FAILED AGAIN OUT OF WARRANTY. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN CHEVY NEEDS TO FIX.

2015 CHEVROLET IMPALA. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO DEFECTIVE BLIND SPOT DETECTION SYSTEM. *LD *TR THE CONSUMER STATED HE HAD TO PAY ALMOST HALF THE REPAIRS WHICH IN COST IS OVER $600. *TR *JS

INITIAL WARNING LIGHT WAS "SERVICE SIDE DETECTION SYSTEM" BUT THEN RESULTED MASS ELECTRICAL FAILURE. ALL WARNING LIGHTS ON MY DASHBOARD WERE LIT UP. ALL THE GAUGES ON MY DASHBOARD WERE AT ZERO. THE FOLLOWING VEHICLE MESSAGES WERE TRIGGERED: SERVICE FRONT CAMERA, SERVICE PARK ASSIST, SERVICE SIDE DETECTION SYSTEM, SERVICE AIRBAG, SERVICE TIRE MONITORING SYSTEM. I SPORADICALLY LOST POWER IN THE INFOTAINMENT SYSTEM AND CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEMS. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO CHEVROLET CERTIFIED SERVICE AND AFTER 3 HOURS THEY INDICATED THEY REPLACED A COUPLE BLOWN FUSES AND THAT ALL SYSTEMS WERE UP AND RUNNING EXCEPT THE "SIDE DETECTION SYSTEM". AT THAT POINT, I HAD TO LEAVE AND GO TO WORK. WITHIN THE DAY, I WAS BACK A SQUARE ONE WITH ALL OF THE SAME ISSUES. AFTER TAKING IT BACK A SECOND TIME, THEY INDICATED THAT THEY NEEDED TO REPLACE THE "REAR SI MODULE" IN ORDER TO FIX THE ISSUE. SO,...

BLIND SPOT SENSORS CORODE AND FAIL. SAFETY HAZARD AND EXPENSIVE. AT APPROXSIMATELY 50000 MILES MY BLIND SPOT SENSOR ILLUMINATED AND WOULDNT SHUT OFF.THE DEALER SAID SENSOR CORRODED AND FAILED,THE TECH SAID THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM.THE PARTS ARE BACK ORDERED DO TO SO MANY FAILURES

SIDE OBJECT DETECTION SYSTEM FAILED 1ST (2/2018). SEE ATTACHMENT FROM ENGINEERING AT MY FORMER EMPLOYER (GMPG). 2ND ISSUE: DASH ILLUMINATION GOES BACK & FORTH FROM NORMAL TO EXTREMELY BRIGHT, DIMMING INOP. 3RD ISSUE SAFETY...WHEN VEHICLE IS STARTED, ERROR MESSAGES FOR AIRBAG, SIDE OBJECT DETECTION, FRONT & REAR CAMERA-HVAC COMPLETELY INOP. RADIO INOP-BEGINS WORKING AFTER ELECTRIC FACEPLATE LIFTED ON RADIO. HVAC & AIRBAG REMAIN INOP. ASKED DEALERSHIP ABOUT SIDE OBJECT ISSUE- THEY HAVE NO INFO ON THIS. ADDITIONAL PROBLEMS STARTED 2/13/2019. WHEN STARTING WITH RKE, SIDE OBJECT LIGHTS IN MIRROR ILLUMINATED SITTING IN A PARKING LOT. THEY HAVE NOT ILLUMINATED WHILE DRIVING IN OVER A YEAR. NO HEAT OR DEFROST WORKING-BIG SAFETY ISSUE IN WINTER WEATHER.

2015 CHEVY IMPALA SIDE BLIND ZONE LEFT SIDE ALERT FAILED TO WORK, AND ACCORDING TO MY CHEVROLET SERVICE SHOP IT WAS THE CAUSE OF THE ENGINE NOT STARTING, THE ENGINE KILLING AFTER STARTING REMOTELY, AND THE CAUSE OF MASS COMMUNICATION FAILURE ALERTS WITH AND BETWEEN THE VEHICLE'S OTHER SAFETY AND NON SAFETY ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS. NONE OF THE CARS DASH GAGES WORKED FOR ABOUT 1 MINUTE AFTER THE MASS ALERT HAPPENED. 10 MILES AFTER I HAD THE LEFT SIDE BLIND ZONE ALERT REPLACED, I RECEIVED AN ALERT THAT A BLIND ZONE ALERT NEEDED SERVICE. IT TURNS OUT THE RIGHT SIDE BLIND ZONE ALERT FAILED AFTER HAVING THE LEFT SIDE REPLACED. MY DAUGHTER HAS THE EXACT SAME VEHICLE AND SHE IS GETTING THE SERVICE BLIND SIDE ALERT ALERT AFTER HAVING BOTH LEFT AND RIGHT SIDE MODULES REPLACES A YEAR AND A HALF AGO. THE COST TO REPLACE BOTH LEFT AND RIGHT MODULES...

SIDE COLLISION DETECTION SENSORS GO OUT AND IT IS A VERY COSTLY REPAIR. ALL MY WARNING SENSORS WENT OUT BEFORE, LUCKILY THIS WAS JUST A FUSE. BUT THE SIDE DETECTION IS STILL. PEOPLE PAY EXTRA MONEY FOR THESE SAFETY FEATURES AND THEY SHOULD WORK! MINE WENT OUT ABOUT 1000 MILES OVER 36000 MILE WARRANTY AND THE EXTENDED WARRANTY I PURCHASED DOESN'T COVER THIS. PASSENGER SIDE DETECTION WENT OUT WHEN DRIVING. ALL OTHER CAR WAS STATIONARY. FROM WHAT I'VE RESEARCHED THESE CAN CAUSE NUMEROUS PROBLEMS IN THE CARS COMPUTER SYSTEM IF NOT FIXED. I CAN FIND THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS LABOUR THIS ISSUE ON THE INTERNET. GM SHOULD TAKE RESPONSIBILITY AS THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET IMPALA. WHILE REVERSING OUT OF A PARKING SPACE, THE REAR CAMERA FAILED TO OPERATE AND THE DRIVER'S SIDE LANE DEPARTURE ALERT FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL DEALER (DOAN CHEVROLET, 5049 W RIDGE RD, SPENCERPORT, NY 14559) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE MODULE HARNESS WAS CORRODED AND THERE WAS WATER INTRUSION. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURES AND OFFERED TO ASSIST THE CONTACT WITH HALF OF THE REPAIR COST. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 41,990.

WITH NO PARTICULAR TRIGGER, MY SENSORS STARTED TO FAIL ONE BY ONE. THEN, MY RADIO TOUCH DISPLAY WENT OUT. NOW, MY CAR WILL RANDOMLY SHUTDOWN WHILE DRIVING, GO INTO THEFT MODE, OR HAVE THE ENTIRE DASH SYSTEM MALFUNCTION, LEAVING ME WITH LITTLE TO NO FUNCTIONALITY OTHER THAN STEERING. A DETAILED THREAD OF THE ISSUE AND OTHERS HAVING THESE ISSUES CAN BE FOUND IN THE FOLLOWING FORUMS. HTTP://WWW.IMPALAFORUMS.COM/CHEVY-IMPALA-9TH-GEN-DISCUSSION/1585778-BAD-BCM.HTML HTTP://WWW.IMPALAFORUMS.COM/AUDIO-VIDEO-AND-ELECTRONICS/1798162-MYLINK-TOUCH-DISPLAY-SHUT-OFF-AFTER-HITTING-POT-HOLE.HTML

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2015 CHEVROLET IMPALA. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED, FLAMES APPEARED FROM THE HOOD. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT EXTINGUISHED THE FIRE AND STATED THAT IT WAS CAUSED BY AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED AND TOWED TO A TOWING LOT. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 22,000.

TRUNK AUTOMATICALLY POPS OPEN WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY/ROAD, WHILE PARKED, AND WHEN INITIALLY STARTING AND WON'T PROPERLY CLOSE DUE TO THE LATCH RECYCLING CONSTANTLY WHEN IT POPS OPEN. PURCHASED VEHICLE IN OCT 2015 AND REPORTED TO THE DEALERSHIP WITHING THE FIRST COUPLE DAYS. IT HAS BEEN IN TO HAVE REPAIRED ON 3 SEPARATE OCCASIONS WITH THE SAME ISSUE REOCCURRING. EXTREMELY UNSAFE!

2015 CHEV. IMPALA-SHORTLEY AFTER I PUT THE KEY IN THE IGNITION TO START IT. I PUT IT IN REVERSE OR DRIVE THE CAR HESITATE THEN GERKS IN THE DIRECTION IM GOING. THEREVVVVBBVCDEEB BFVB B FV BB IS A DELAY IN EVERTHING ON THE DASHBOARD. EX. IF I TRY TO TURN THE RADIO UP RIGHT AFTER STARTING MY CAR THE VOLUME WILL NO TURN UP.

STARTED HAVING ISSUES WITH THE CV AXLES POPPING WHEN STARTING AND STOPPING AT 18000 MILES. MOTOR MOUNT WENT BAD SHORTLY AFTER AND STEERING STARTED ACTING REALLY SLUGGISH WHEN TRYING TO TURN. AROUND 25K MILES IT STARTED GETTING WORSE ABOUT TURNING AND THE GAUGES WOULD START RESETTING ON THERE OWN. AFTER A DAY OF THAT HAPPENING THE PASSENGER SIDE DASH CAUGHT ON FIRE.

THE VEHICLE IS EQUIPPED WITH AN AUTO STOP/START THAT SHUTS DOWN THE ENGINE TO REDUCE FUEL CONSUMPTION. AND WHEN YOU PUT YOUR FOOT BACK ON THE GAS PEDAL THE ENGINE IS SUPPOSE TO ENGAGE ITSELF AGAIN SO THAT YOU CAN TAKE OFF. ONCE MY VEHICLES AUTO STOP HAS ENGAGED THE ENGINE IS STAYING OFF FOR SOMETIMES UP TO 2 MINUTES CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO NOT MOVE AND CAUSING A SUDDEN JERKING MOTION.

INITIALLY IT STARTED OUT WITH LOSING ALL LIGHTING CONTROL DURING DRIVING FOR ABOUT 10SEC AFTER WHICH IT COMES BACK ON. THIS WHEN ON ARE ABOUT TWO MONTHS AND ABOUT A WEEK AGO, I STARTED GETTING THE ERROR MESSAGE 'POWER STEERING DRIVE WITH CARE' WHICH ALTERNATES WITH ANOTHER ERROR MESSAGE 'STABILITRAK'. EACH TIME THIS COMES ON DURING DRIVING, THE CAR JERKS A LITTLE WITH THE EMERGENCY PARK LIGHT FOR ABOUT 2SEC AND IF I WERE DRIVING WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL ON, IT AUTOMATICALLY DISABLES IT. THIS IS REGARDLESS OF HOW FAST AM DRIVING.

I BOUGHT MY CAR WITH 11K ON IT. IT WAS A DEALER USED CAR THAT HAD NEVER BEEN REGISTERED FOR THE ROAD. I HAD A 2009 CADILLAC, SO THIS IS WHAT I COMPARED THIS CAR TOO THEN. THE PASSENGER WIPER BLADE HAS "SCRATCHED" THE WINDSHIELD WHERE IT STOPS TO RETURN BACK DOWN. THIS HAS CAUSED A PERMANENT MARK IN THE WINDSHIELD, THE LENGTH OF THE BLADE. THIS BLOCKS YOUR VISION AT THE WORST TIME; WHEN IT IS RAINING OR SNOWING. NEXT UP ARE THE SAFETY FEATURE CONTROL LOCATIONS WHICH WERE VERY POORLY DESIGNED. THERE ARE 5? DIFFERENT ONES. TWO ARE ON THE LEFT DASH AREA, BUT OBSTRUCTED BY THE STEERING WHEEL. ANOTHER ONE IS ON THE STEERING WHEEL, NEXT TO OTHER CONTROLS AND I'VE TURNED IT OFF BY ACCIDENT. THERE ARE OTHERS, NOT EASILY ACCESSIBLE, BUT YOU HAVE TO OPERATE THE DRIVER INFO CENTER BY SEVERAL CLICKS TO ACCESS THEM....

LATENT DEFECT IN CHEVROLET 2015 IMPALA IGNITION SYSTEMS THAT GM (GENERAL MOTORS) WILL NOT FIX. THE KEYLESS ENTRY FOB WAS REDESIGN FROM PART NUMBER GM/L 22733524 TO PART NUMBER GM 13584829, WHICH HAS RESULTED IN ALL THE PUSH BUTTON SWITCHES NOW RAISED ABOVE THE KEYLESS HOUSING. WITH RAISE SWITCHES ABOVE THE HOUSING, THE TRUNK CAN INADVERTENTLY OPEN WHEN THE FOD IS IN SOMEONES POCKET. THE CAR TRUNK CAN INADVERTENTLY OPEN WHEN THE FODS SWITCH, WHICH IS IN SOMEONES POCKET, IS INADVERTENTLY PRESSED AGAINST SOMETHING WITHOUT THE OWNERS KNOWLEDGE. FOR EXAMPLE: THIS HAS HAPPEN BY JUST SETTING IN A CHAIR WHEN THE FOB PRESSES AGAINST THE CHAIR, OR WHEN LEANING AGAINST SOMETHING LIKE A TABLE OR WALL WITH THE LOWER PART OF THE BODY. GMS OLD KEYLESS ENTRY FOBS SWITCH WERE RECESSED BELOW THE KEYLESS ENTRY FODS HOUSING AND THE OLD DESIGN DID NOT HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM WITH INADVERTENTLY OPENING...
