| 2004 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | MY IMPALA IS HAVING SEVERAL SAFETY ISSUES WHICH I HAVE NOTICED IS A COMMON OCCURRENCE IN THESE VEHICLES. I HAVE ALSO NOTICED GM HAS NOT RECALLED THESE ISSUES. FIRST SAFETY ISSUE IS IN THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER PANEL IN WHICH THERE ARE FAULTY STEPPER MOTORS THAT CAUSE MY GAS GAUGE, TEMPERATURE GAUGE AND SPEEDOMETER TO NOT FUNCTION AT ALL. NOT KNOWING HOW MUCH GAS YOU HAVE, HOW FAST YOU ARE GOING, OR WHAT TEMPERATURE YOUR CAR IS. THESE ARE SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUES TO ANY DRIVER. SECOND ISSUE, MY PASS LOCK SECURITY SYSTEM IS MALFUNCTIONING. THE SECURITY LIGHT STAYS ON AND CAUSES MY CAR TO NOT START, LEAVING ME AND MY INFANT SON STRANDED FOR UP TO THIRTY MINUTES UNTIL IT DECIDES TO START. SHAME ON GM FOR NOT RESOLVING THESE ISSUES IN ALL THEIR MODELS. WHEN WILL THERE BE RECALLS FOR THESE OBVIOUS SAFETY ISSUES?! THIS IS THE LAST GM CAR I BUY! *TR |
