Problems with 2003 Chevrolet Impala EXTERIOR LIGHTING

The multifunction switch malfunctions. in switching from low beam to high beam the headlights do not switch and eventually go out completely. by holding the handle manually for high beams it cancels cruise control when activated.

Chevy impala lights don't work at night daytime lights work off and on high beams at night only.

Tl* the contact owns a 2003 chevrolet impala. while the vehicle was stationary, the low beam headlights malfunctioned. the contact stated that the headlights would not illuminate when prompted. the vehicle was taken to be repaired. the manufacturer was made aware of the issue. the failure mileage was 139,000.

My turning signals work on and off all of a sudden. the first time it happened i was on the freeway and was attempting to get over and my right turning signal wouldn't work but the left turning signal worked fine. then after a day or two the right turning signal would work but then the left turning signal won't work. then all of a sudden they would both work then both stop working. now a month has passed and neither one of them work most the time, but will work for a hot second and then stop working. this is only for the rear turning signal though the front turning signal have always worked properly and still do.

Sometimes when im driving and im trying to pass someone and i go to use my signal light they do not work then i can go down the road they will work plus my lights wont go on bright without shutting off. *tr

Headlights suddenly went out when driving. no warning. could only use high beam lights when lever constantly pressed when driving. very dangerous. not fuses, not bulbs, ultimately $800 multifunction switch needed replacement. appears to be a known hazard. *tr

While driving on interstate 78 at 60 mph i attempted to switch from low beam to high beam. asi did that, i lost all lights. i jiggled the high beam switch and the lights came back on. this has happened several times since then. *js

Every time it rains my entire vehicle floor is flooded. my radio has stopped working and my dashboard lights flicker. i have been researching and there are several models with this problem from 2002 to 2005. this happens often and can eventually lead to electrical problems. i pay a lot if money for this vehicle and still have a ways to go before i am done paying for it. i have 3 children that depend in thus car along with myself if there are so many people with this problem this is definitely a defect and should be recalled. *tr

While driving at night, the headlights have begun to go off automatically. so far, we can click the lights from high beam to low beam or vice-versa and they come back on. this started the latter part of last year, but last week they actually started flickering right before they went off. i searched the web and found this is a common complaint with many consumers. i live in rural america and fear the lights going out where there are no street lights or any other type of lighting. there are many curves and hills and fear what could happen especially if my teenager is driving and panics. we have searched for the "fix" but no one seems to know for sure and gm has made no attempt to recall this problem. my complaint is why nothing has been done to fix this problem. it is very dangerous and needs to be addressed immediately. i have read so many suggestions on what it may be but no one has the exact remedy for it. *tr

I was on my way home from work when my driverside head light went out so i stopped and bought a new bulb at the closest store when i replaced the bulb the light still didnt come back on then the dtr light also started having issues the only time you get any lights on the driver side is when you move the entire headlight assembly around then you get dim lighting so for the past couple months we havent been able to use our car at night. i keep checking for recalls but i havent seen any and we have always had problems with our dtr lighting including the ones that control our dash lights. cause we have none they work during th eday when they want too but at night we have no lights in our dash. also the drivers side heated seat has quit working. it all occured roughly around the same time. nobodys been able to fix the issues. *tr

while driving at night the headlights went out pulled over on side of road, pulled on timer switch headlights came back on. i have been reading about many issues related to headlight failure. gm needs to recall my 16 yr. old daughter 03 impala, before she gets hurt. *tr
