Very bad knocking noise also electrical fire could've caught on fire
Takata recall. when vehicle is started a loud screech happen every time vehicle is started, once vehicle is in motion on highway, street, city.and in motion the vehicle starts alarming and lettimg me know in the information widow check tire monitoring system with tire pressure light consistently on then vehicle alarming sounds again to check stability trak and then it alarm s again with the check engine light that the vehicles engine power has been reduced and vehicle is no longer able to pick up speed right away this has been going on sense i purchased it. also when im making turns the vehicle will alarm about having stability trak serviced
My vehicle experiences an 'engine power is reduced' message in addition to losing capability of driving faster than 40 mph likely as a result of a common fault by the manufacturer.
Throttle pedal gone bad /service traction control warning ?
Engime power reduced seevice tractuon control. while driving power is cut to near nothing. about 20 mph. after shutting the car off and starting a few hours later it's fine. a couple days later it happens again. faulty equipment from gm.
I was told from a mechanic the car has either pcm or ecm problems. the car starts to die out when i'm driving it then i have to turn it off then restart it. it jerks really hard when driving it. the oil pressure low stop engine message comes on. it just has a lot of electrical problems and the mechanic told me the other impalas like mine are having either all the same problems or some of the same problems. recall
While driving my car for only two minutes, the reduced power sensor came on and traction control came on also. my car would not go above 20 mph. went back to normal after an hour. very concerning if i was on the interstate when this happened.was on a back country highway when this happened.
Traction control and the stability trac reduces the engine speed under normal weather conditions drastically without any warnings. been acting up for some time. dealers don't know what the problem is and doesn't give a code. very dangerous and frustrating.
I started see a warning light on in my car that read "engine power is reduced, service traction control" so i sent gm an email regarding this and maybe a month or so later i received a notice that said the gas throttle sensor will cause this to appear when it is bad. they advised if i felt this was the problem i could take it to a gm dealer and have it check, but if it wasn't they would not cover it and i would be responsible for the cost of the diagnostics test. i took my car and took my car , along with the notice to sunrise pontiac on 12/31/15. i was told that i needed a thermostat a gas pressure sensor. the cost to repair these items would run me almost $900 and i could not afford that t this time. i asked the technician, which could i get away with not fixing right now and he said i needed to go ahead and replace the thermostat to get the check engine light off. i had that work done and the light still was on, as well as, the warning lights. so i contacted gm again ...
2006-2009 chevrolet impala ss ticking noise, engine misfire and/or ses light. this may be the result of an afm (active fuel management for displacement-on-demand) lifter that unlocks as soon as the engine is started or one that is mechanically collapsed/stuck. if an afm lifter unlocks as soon as the engine is started, a ses light and dtc p0300 will be experienced with engine misfires on cylinder 1, 4, 6 or 7 but it is unlikely that any noise will be experienced. if an afm lifter is mechanically collapsed/stuck, a consistent valvetrain tick noise, ses light and dtc p0300 will be experienced with engine misfires on cylinder 1, 4, 6 or 7.
My daughter was driving my car on a city street. she stopped at a stop light and as she was preparing to accelerate the check engine light came on and a warning message flashed stating (engine power reduced). my daughter stated that the car would only get up to 40 mph and rpm gauge would not go pass 2, even when she pressed the gas pedal down to the floor. she had to drive the car for 10 miles in fear that the car was going to stop in the middle of the city street while in transit. she finally made it home. however, the car speed remained at 40 mph; despite her attempts to increase the speed. after 2 hours had passed, i started the car-the check engine light was off and when i drove i was able to drive faster than 40 mph. after driving around the block, the check engine came back on. i contacted onstar for an engine diagnostic- the result was that the powertrain system has failed- a malfunction of the electronic throttle control system. after i received that message, i checked on line for a recall- i discovered several ...
While driving my vehicle, i went to make a left hand turn and the traction control service message apeard along with abs lite and engine reduction causeing my vehicle to almost stall out on a major highway.
Stopped during out-of-state trip and then esc sensor lite came on and car would only go 20 mph. gm dealer in nashville not much help. repeated pushing of tc/esc button finally cleared fault. now hesitant to drive this car. last gm car that i will ever own.
While driving my car my car stalled as if it was in neutral. i stopped and tried to put the car in park, but nothing happened. i tried reverse and the car wouldn't move. it crakes up but there are no shifting of gears. i had to replace my gas tank as well as my pedals for this car. please help.
(reduced engine power) my 2008 chevy impala randomly shows down after the dash reads reduced engine power. i am lucky to be alive i was doing about 60 on the expressway and the car speed just dropped to 20mph i had to swerve because the car behind could not slow down in time. my two year old was in the car and i hear that gm cars have this problem all the time. this is ridiculously dangerous someone has to do something about it. the gm dealership has no ideal how to fix this.
