problem #1

(reported on)

Impala

  • 69,200 miles

After a month of driving a totally rebuilt engine, it died in the middle of a NY expressway, I had to be towed, the engine had to be totally dismantled - broken camshaft found - FOR THE SECOND TIME. Car is in the shop now for 3 plus weeks, and this time I can't afford a rental. (Inferior material used to make camshaft? Camshaft made where?) Anyone else out there with this problem with a Chevy (Impala) camshaft?
