problem #3

Impala V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 52,000 miles

The speedometer started acting up a year ago, wasn't reading accurately. Now it doesn't work at all. Then the temperature gauge quit working. Then the fuel gauge reads incorrectly about 5 % of the time. When slowing down, a ticking noise is heard from the speedometer. From the other complaints, this sounds like a chronic problem with Chevy's parts. I think they should recall to fix the problem.

Impala 3.2L V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 60,000 miles

First noticed the problem on my way home from work. My temp gauge was not working. I replaced one of the sensors. Next day, the gauge went right to the red. Had to take the day off and get it to a shop. Noone could pinpoint the problem. They wanted to to leave the car so they could tear it apart. NO WAY!! Their temp gauge showed that the car was not overheating so I left. A couple of weeks ago, the speedometer started going haywire. Said I was going 60mph when I was stopped. Have appointment to take to a Chevy dealer to get official word that it is the electronic cluster. I did buy the extended warranty so hopefully it will be covered under that. Will now more this week. I filed a complaint on GM's website and with NHTSA. I figure the more that complain, eventually GM will have to own up to its crappy work.

Impala 3.4L V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 28,000 miles

I first noticed the temperature gauge is stuck on my 2004 Impala at 31,000 miles. I took it to the dealer when it has 33,000 miles. I inquired if there is any recall pending or not. GM must proceed with recall. Those who got it fixed must be reimbursed by GM.
