My car has worked fine scince i bought it with no check engine codes.i pulled into parking space and put car in park,all of a sudden it stalled out and will not crank anymore but has power.key will not come out of ignition and battery will not shut off.the ignition switch is a very common problem with impalas and is very dangerous.it locks people out of there cars,gets stuck in gears,wont let key release,wont start,sets off anti theft signal which cuts power to door locks,trunk,starter,fuelpump,and more.i have read hundreds of forums of this problem with chevy impala that has been going on for years without the problem being fixed.elderly women breaking down on highway or car just shutting off and not restarting.it is soooooo common with chevy that they can diagnose the problem just over the phone.this is very unacceptable and has to be dealt with.please recall this problem.

Driving uphill & the service stabiltrak & the serice traction control words came on followed by reduce of engine power & the service engine light & traction control light came on. we could still drive at about 20 mph uphill & 45-50 on flat roads. we shut the car off 4 about 2 hrs 2 cool down. but then as soon as we headed up a hill it started all over.

I was sitting in the parking lot with my engine running for about 10 mind. all a sudden 'reduced engine power' came across my dash and my service engine light came on. i turned my car off. about an hour later i turned it back on and the message was gone. then as i was driving down the road my service air bag light came on. it only comes on when the passenger seat beat is clicked on. and my driver side back door auto lock stopped working.

2010 chevy impala only has 58,000 miles on it. i've already had been having issues with the car not starting all of the time and now after putting new tires on it, i am driving down the road and get "service stabilitrack," "service traction control," and "engine power reduced." i was on a major highway going about 60 mph and was almost rear-ended due to the sudden loss of speed. i was able to move into a turning lane and get to a parking lot without getting myself killed. i still, however, have to figure out how i'm getting home from work! i had noticed when i first went out that it seemed to be shifting hard, but the roads were wet, so i thought perhaps it was the stabilitrack kicking in, not going out! i have two small children, who thankfully were not with me. the car has been nothing but trouble since i've purchased it. with such low-mileage, i figured i was good to go for awhile. i have a 2003 chevy tahoe with almost 200,000 miles and have not had this many issues out of it!! contacted chevrolet, but am told no recalls have been made. why ...

I have a 2010 chevy impala lt with 90k+ miles on it. i originally bought the car in 2011 used with 40k+ miles on it, so the car is no longer covered through warranty. engine power reduced, service stabilitrac, etc. i'm a full time college student, and a full time uber driver. last night i was with a passenger on [xxx] towards o'hare airport. my car reduced speed and suddenly dropped speed from 70mph down to 50mph. as i turned on the emergency light and start steering to the right to get onto the shoulder i was in the third lane to the right (the expressway is 4 lanes) as i was turning to the right to get onto the shoulder and to get to safety my steering locks, and there was a reckless driver going 100mph trying to cut off traffic. the lanes to the left were blocked so he had to cut me off by overtaking me by going onto the shoulder. he damaged his right rearview mirror and probably scrapped the right side of his car pulling off that reckless stunt. had i delayed the breaking for a second i wouldn't be alive making ...
Tl* the contact owns a 2010 chevrolet impala. while driving 50 mph, the reduced engine power indicator illuminated. in addition, the vehicle began to jerk and the engine stalled. the vehicle was able to restart. the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who diagnosed that the throttle body sensor failed and needed to be replaced. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was notified of the failure. the failure mileage was approximately 166,000.
Reduced engine power lights came, on traction control light came, on it was hard to accelerate in the middle of a highway, car almost shut down, but i made it home. it has happened twice on the highway and turnpike. i thought it was oil but that wasn't the issue. it stops (the problems) after i shut the car off for an evening, but i'm scared it will power down while on the highway again. when this issue happens the car beeps, then the traction light comes on with warning and so does the engine light and reduced engine power warning. always in motion, especially higher speeds than normal city streets. such as turnpike and highway.
While driving my impala, with no warning, my car lost power. the dash beeped at me and said reduced engine power, service stalinktrak, service traction control. i had to turn my car off, i waited a few minutes then turned car back on. the car was able to run and drive after this, but my check engine light was on. i had vehicle computer scanned and had a code for throttle position sensor. after further research, i have learned i will need to replace the whole throttle body. my car has now lost power several times and my rpm gauge 'bounces'. i will be parking my car until the part comes in. this was very dangerous as you lose all power with no warning going down the expressway. *tr
I was traveling west bound on interstate 22 when the stabilitrak requires maintenance displayed across driver's information center. next the traction control light and display lights up followed by, reduced engine power, in which i lost almost all power to my vehicle. i was traveling around 70 mph in the left lane and had to navigate two lanes of traffic to reach a safe spot on the shoulder of the interstate.
