I received a recall letter from GM regarding an electrical recall on my 2014 Chevy Impala 2014. There is water damage in side detection senors, which are underneath the 2 back tires. Water damage that has cause electrical issues with every electrical part of the car. Speedometer goes off while driving lights go off and on while driving. Sensors are beeping while driving radio gets loud turns off and on on its own. Airbag warnings while driving, battery shuts down. Its a mess.
We were driving and the lights all dash lights headlights and motor just cut out we we were almost rear ended.we found out the drivers side detection in the rear bumper was corroded and shorting out the entire electrical system.
"service side detection" comes on the dash everytime the car is started. Recently I tried to enter my vehicle and the fob did not unlock the doors after several attempts. Once it did, the car would not start. After several attempts of starting the vehicle it finally worked, but the gauges kept turning on and off even while the car was in motion as well as the door locks. This is the first time this has happened, but it was quite concerning while driving.

Takata recall. Stablink first came on my car when driving on a city road it was shaking did not want to pick up speed. Had that fixed, then 9/2018 my side blinders started malfunctioning would come on and off. At times one would just stay on even when the car was off. Received a letter 4/2019 about extended warranty on this but only good for 80,000 miles. My car has 98,000 miles. So here I am stuck to have to pay out of pocket.
Started my vehicle and power steering warning came on, dismissed it, stability control warning appeared, dismissed it, traction control light and ABS light remained on. This occurred when leaving a friend's driveway and driving onto a county road. The power steering was inoperative! took vehicle to repair shop. Mechanic found left rear wheel speed sensor ring broken. This should not happen! there are 50215 miles on this car and it is very well maintained.
I had a problem with the lane departure modules that explode and and caused my system to fail. Saying that my airbag deployed, my gas was empty, they theft is detected, the A/C blower motor turned on and off, finally I got the modules replaced, but now there are new safety issues happening. The light on the mirror to tell if someone is next to me turns on all the time. I almost ran off the raid because I was changing lanes and it went off and now one was there. The backup sensors are delayed in telling me if something is behind me or coming behind me. The front system does not make the car slow down when I am in cruse control and a car goes slo infornt of me. I don't trust that the airbag will go off if it needs to in a collision.. I really don't feel safe in this car.
When starting the vehicle 5E 'service stabilitrack' light will turn on; the gear will be on manual instead of int he park position - and I am unable to switch the gear. I am not able to put it in drive. I have to turn it off and on a couple of times before it will start on park. The car has also switched to the manual position when I'm driving and making a left turn. This happens more frequently after it's rained the service engine light comes on, but after a few days it turns off. The problem of going from park to manual or from being in drive to manual has happened both while the car is in motion or when it is stationary- it's also happened on a busy highway or in town at low speed.
Side detection system quit working. However it is connected to the main computer so sometimes my car will idle poorly and rev high. This could present a huge problem if it revs high when trying to brake for a car in front of me. I have also heard people with the same model having issues with it stalling. So this presents it's own problems. Seems no different than the loss of power like GM had with their ignition switches.
Side detection system failure. Module absorbing moisture. Detection light on side mirror stays on, even when car is off. Instrument cluster flashes various warnings. GM is aware that it is due to a defective part but limits coverage to certain mileage. Seems like a part that could cause a fire near the gas tank would be a big enough safety hazard to warrant a full recall. Issue first happened while driving through town. Gave warnings on the side detection, then light stayed on in the side view mirror.
Driving along on freeway when all of a sudden my dash lit up with various flashing lights and warnings, the cruise control shut off and my HVAC stopped functioning. Had to pull over on busy highway and restart to no avail. Pulled over again once I got to rest stop. Let it sit. Restarted and worked okay. Internet says problem is with side detection system (which dealer confirmed but said my car missed cut-off date by 5 days on a $700 repair bill. Car has but 12,300 miles on it (I am 92 years old). Internet also states that if issue is not fixed it will eventually cause serious issues with dashboard electronics, including fire. GM issued special coverage adjustment #N172097060 (no owner notification), which is what I was told I missed out on by 5 days.
While driving on the interstate the car has shut off and the lights pop up saying rear stability, ABS anti theft detection, and the check engine light.the car has done this three times so far with my child in the car.
