I have had nothing but issues with this car. It started out with tire pressuring monitoring, pretty much fixed except on extended trips still get dummy light. Driver's and passenger side windows scratched and still on occasion screech. I just apply oil and it stops for a while. Tranny line leak - repaired, brake rotors where replaced 13,000 miles ago went bad again, vehicle out of alignment again and wearing tires out. Mechanic states that intermediate steering shaft needs replaced. Car has 95,000 checked on line and all of these items are known problems with Chevy / GM vehicles.

2006 Chevy ss Impala started having issues with the dash board readings, the car would not start because it would show the car was in drive when it was not, there was no readings for the speed, all electrical readings were out of control, finally the ABS would not work and then the car would not start at all and had to be towed in. The ABS module at only 75,000 miles had to be replaced. This is a serious safety issue that needs to be addressed by Chevy, the repair needed put me in a serious driving safety concern and Chevy should not say sorry this is no longer under warranty and we can't do anything for you.
