The service air bag light keeps coming on while we are driving our car. and i'm worried that the air bags will not deploy in a accident, or they may deploy while driving down the road. i don't want to disable the air bags but not knowing why the light for the air bags is coming on. i have looked online to see what i can do about this and i have found out that this is happening a lot on the 2006-2014 impala's. and people have taken there car in to the dealership to get fixed and the dealership can't figure out why this is happening. and they can't seem to fix it. plus our service our traction control keeps coming on and the dealership can't figure out why this is happening. this seems to be the problem with this car and the dealership can't figure out why this is happening so they can't fix it. so i'm worried that this car isn't safe to drive because the air bags might not deploy in a accident or if they will just deploy driving down the road.
Reaccuring problem with grinding on front wheels with traction control and abs lighting on control panel. have had wheel hubs replaced which had no effect on the problem. the car feels unsafe to drive. have read many complaints of other impala owners with the exact same problem. the grinding occurs during acceleration when moving forward or backward mostly when turning but has occured when just moving forward, mostly on city and suburban streets. the problem developed about 5 months ago and continues to date. need help and advice please.
While driving on roads and interstates, i frequently receive a dash notification "engine power reduced" and my service traction control and check engine light comes on. when this happens, my vehicle loses speed and cannot accelerate above 40mph - dangerous, especially on an interstate. the notification lights and symptoms occasionally go away after turning the engine off and on, only to come back later. i cannot find and answer to this problem.
Abs and traction control lights intermittently come on causing car to jerk with acceleration, or occasionally, to slip during braking. wheel hub assemblies have been replaced multiple times and the same faulty issue keeps reoccurring. low quality wiring and position and tautness going into the harness are a recipe for disaster. sensors can be set off with as little effort as gently rocking the car, definitely going off if there are any bumps or potholes in the road. also had other annoying although less dangerous issues: door lock actuators and heating/ac actuator, causing door locks to not respond and causing a horrible clicking noise in the car, respectively. i have walked away from the car thinking i had locked it only to find one or more of the doors did not lock. actually had items taken from the car. the clicking noise from under the dash was sporadic, usually upon starting the car, but occasionally while driving with no notice. this ear splitting, headache inducing noise would for the most part stop after several minutes of driving, but would sometimes continue after the car was shut off and would drain the battery. the electrical system throughout the car is horrible.
The impala displays service traction control followed by engine power reduced. throws a code for throttle body sensor, but that does not fix the issue. accelerator pedal position sensor is another reason they say, which also does not fix the issue. my car has shut off on me going down the interstate, on a highway, and and over a hill. it shuts down and says 'starting disabled, service throttle' with no warning at all. several people have had the same exact problem and no one seems to know how to fix it. they say wiring but it never fixed anything.
The engine will shut off. then the stereo will turn off for a second then come back on and display service stabilitrak. the vehicle was stationary at a stoplight. the engine has always come back on when trying to restart it with the key.
As i go down the road the engine light comes on and the stabletrek waring trackion light also comes on light and power reduce engine power light comes on but not all the time it goes off after a day or so and than no one can fine the problem.
This vehicle traction control problem never ends
Airbag light is on paid to get it fixed and it's still on afraid to drive it if i get into an accident it will probably not deploy the electrical system doesn't work my brake lights don't work to fix them and get new balls it's all electrical i seen there's a recall but i bought the car after the recall so i had no idea there was a recall for the electrical system wiring and the electrical system ignition my key gets stuck in the ignition and i have to push a button in the back in order for it to release
Lost power and shut off completely when accelerated at high speed when getting onto a freeway. my husband was able to coast to an exit and get off. after waiting some minutes, turned car back on and was able to go home. also traction control alert comes on when driving slow in a parking lot or making a slow right or left turn. causes a grinding noise.
My sterring wheel on my 2009 chevy impala has recently started getting stuck once the engine hs been cut off and parked. sometimes i don't have any problems turning the key and it cranks right on up while majority of the time i have to rock my steering wheel back and forth while turning the key. my tire and pressure light stays on even after i have brought new tires and a oil change. my actuator makes a clicking noise when i crank up my car and last about a minute or two then stops.
Tires: are constantly needing replaced have had three sets of 60k goodyears tires in addition to a set of perillis with about 40 % tread since febraury 2015. brakes: three sets of brakes on vehicle since february 2015. everytime vehicle goes to mechanic they state that rotors are severely warped. electrical: having issues with abs traction control. this is causing reduced engine power when turning. when crossing a main intersections the car coasts across oncoming traffic. actuators and wiring to many vehicle components having ongoing issues. air conditioner, doors, door locks, relays the main issue i am having is non operational doors locks in vehicle. i have to craw through the car to open the door locks. i have young children and my daughter was standing out of the car awaiting me to unlock the door. another vehicle pulling into a parking spot nearly hit my ...
Takata recall everytime i drive my vehicle 5 seconds the car jerks makes loud sound, starts beeping, messages appear flashing back and forth engine power reduced, service traction control, car slows down, car jerks and chugs, makes loud sound, beeping noise from message board, throttle something appears, steering wheel locks, car stops, can't steer car out of road, won't crank, my car sits in the road.
After starting my car and pressing on the accelerator car starts to jerk lights flicker and the message service traction control. the car will sometimes lose power. and does this while driving and will not accererate. i have changed the accerator petal positioning sensor as well as the battery. i do not feel safe driving this care whatsoever. and i've seen that many other impalas have had this issues. this has happened many times. i should not have to pay for repairs when this is clearly a manufacturer issue.
For the last two days, i have driven my vehicle. every time i would drive over 40 mph, the engine would lock up. the vehicle would jerk back and forth. the car would do this every time i would try and drive over 40 mph, no matter the roadway or stop at an intersection. whenever this happened, the check engine light would stay on. a month before this problem started, my father had been driving the car and had an auto accident. *tr
