Driving on the highway and dash notification popped up that i needed to service my power steering, service my stabiltrac, service abs. i lost power (electric) steering and barely able to exit and park safely. i'm a small woman with not much strength and i could hardly turn my wheel with every bit of muscle. this is not safe! i could've been seriously injured or died along with other drivers/vehicles! this needs to be a complete recall!!!!
Side airbag warning system indication. i took the car to the dealer and was told the object detection module and wire harness had failed due to corrosion and it would not be covered under warranty. i researched this issue and found that this is a common issue for gm vehicles. the modules are located in a position that has no protection from the elements. to make it worse, the module actually has a vent that allows moisture to infiltrate the module. this is a design flaw that gm is well aware of. gm issued a letter to owners of effected vehicles but if you didn't get a letter you are out of luck. the letter is specific about moisture infiltration of the module and offers an upgraded kit to fix the issue. the dealers have no idea this letter exists because it's technically not a recall. in a nutshell, gm is aware this safety issue exists in their vehicles but are doing their best to avoid doing the right thing and repair under a recall. to add insult to injury, this is the 3rd module that has gone bad. ...
The vehicle had water damage from 'clogged sunroof drains', which cause water to run all down the side and back panels causing an extensive amount of damage from one horrible design flaw. some of the things effected was electrical company's such as electronic parking break was engaged and would not release cause the vehicle not to move! next was corrosion on several other inside wires having to do with steering and possibly air bags, but who knows if they will be effective until there is an accident and it's too late to find out if they are dmamged. other safety features such as side detection was corroded so it too malfunctioned. there was a lot of other electrical things damaged but the car is in the shop and i don't know what else could be a huge safe concern. there is now so much mold which is dangerous to be breathing in if not totally replaced. there is an extensive amount of water in the spare tire wheel well that is causing rust and the inability to use this safety feature if needed! this became a horrible safety concern for myself and whomever my be traveling in my vehicle. please ...
While at red lights all electronics will turn off. the car has to be restarted. the lights, locks, and screens go off intermittently while driving.
Side mirror light stays on with car off...also shut down of heater instrument lights while driving.
While i was driving on the highway, my vehicle gave me a 'service side detection system' warning. a few more miles down the road, i smelled an electrical smell almost like something was burning. luckily, i made it home and am taking it to the dealership tomorrow. it was very scary and i'm thankful my 1 year old son wasn't in the car with me at that time.
While driving in town- side detection message appears on dash. left side detection indicator stays on. vehicle taken to dealership for service. service technician informs me the detection module is corroded, likely from moisture. the statement reads two "miscellaneous body electrical- repair" recommendations totalling $1104.91. i can not afford this. i ask if we can disable or turn off the sensor and i am told no. i ask if neglecting to replace the corroded module can cause further disruptions with the vehicle, including safety systems, and i am told yes, it can. this is outrageous. the module should never be made in a way where it is susceptible to water damage, especially given its placement in the rear bumper. this is negligent design and complete disregard for safety, the user, or the product. i hope i havent left anything important out. i am trying to be factual and keep my frustration aside.
Side detection lights don't work and followed all the ideas to make them work other than replacing them.was going down the round and was going to make a turn and the lights weren't working. the next time they work ,now there out completely.
Concerning the 2016 chevrolet impala trunk, there were several occasions of the trunk being found opened on it's own when not in use. recently, the trunk will not close or will not open. i've purchased fuses to no avail as they continue to blow. contacted chevrolet customer care, they lied and said no complaints had been received on any models since 2000. there are at least 2 other complaints about the trunk on the nthsa site. chevrolet (rob) informed me my complaint is now in their records. concerning the electrical system, doors could be heard clicking when not in use. my battery has drained several times due to erosion. i purchased new cable which worked fine for some months but then had to purchase new battery. these are obvious issues gm should address.
