| 2008 | VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL | ON 4/28/13, WHILE TURNING INTO CHURCH PARKING LOT, TRACTION CONTROL AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS CAME ON. COMPUTER CHECK THE NEXT DAY SHOWED CODE 2127. THE COMPUTER WAS CLEARED AND THIS PROBLEM CODE DID NOT REAPPEAR. ON 5/28/13, WHILE DRIVING ON A FLAT COUNTRY ROAD AT ABOUT 50 MPH, TRACTION CONTROL AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS AGAIN CAME ON. I HAD TO DRIVE APPROX. 20 MILES TO GET BACK TO MY MECHANIC. PART OF THE COMPUTER RESPONSE DURING THE THIS TIME WAS TO REDUCE ENGINE POWER. THIS WAS NOTICEABLE ON ANY MINOR HILL. AGAIN, MY MECHANIC CHECKED THE COMPUTER DIAGNOSTIC AND SAID CODE 2127. I TOOK MY CAR TO MY DEALER 5/29/13 AND THEY REPLACED THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL ASSEMBLY. *TR |
| 2013 | VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL | "SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL" AND "REDUCED ENGINE POWER" WARNING DURING NORMAL DRIVING ON MY WAY TO WORK THIS MORNING. THE CAR SUDDENLY DECELERATED AND STARTED RUNNING TERRIBLY, CAUSING A POTENTIAL SAFETY ISSUE. I'VE ONLY HAD THE CAR FOR 2 MONTHS! APPARENTLY THIS HAS BEEN A COMMON PROBLEM WITH IMPALAS FOR SEVERAL YEARS NOW THAT GM IS SEEMINGLY UNABLE TO FIX. HAD I KNOWN ABOUT THIS ISSUE I WOULD NOT HAVE PURCHASED AN IMPALA. GM SOLD ME A LEMON. VERY DISAPPOINTED. *TR |
