Takata recall my intake manifold have a recall on it and I would like to bring it in to get fixed. I bought the car from an auction. Also my fuel flow does not work.
Exterior lights 133,000 miles lights went out on my 2000 impala in may 2014. This is what happened. I had fractured my left rib at home and was driving to the emergency room at mercy hospital when I hit my bright lights, because the road was dark, and all of my lights when out. I pulled over and kept clicking the lights lever and it would go from no lights to bright lights with each click. I got the low beam to finally come back on after several back and forth clicks. The police stopped me that night because I had to use my right hand to click the lights, which is on the left side of the car, which caused me to weave a little. He also observed me pull off the road for a minute, to get lights back on. He said he thought I had been drinking but saw that I was hurt, 65 years old, and I explained how my lights had just gone out on me while I was driving to the emergency room and I had to keep clicking the high beam, low beam, back and forth to make low beam come back. He saw that I was hurt and couldn't use left arm and he saw how I had to lean over with right hand to keep clicking switch to get my low beams to come back on, keeping in mind, I?m in severe pain. I was able to get low beam back on while the officer was standing there and he saw the problem and understood and told me to be careful. No ticket. I don?t use my high beams anymore. Also, I have no lights in the cluster, I can't tell my speed, I use my phone to see how fast I'm going and then set the auto drive. I can't see the gas gauge, but the low fuel light works, it will come on and no indoor lights on top of doors. However the red security light on the dashboard works. When I open car door it's completely dark, I have to use a flashlight or my phone to see or look for things.
Tl* the contact owns a 2000 chevrolet impala. The contact stated that the turn signal lights, hazard lights, and headlights suddenly failed to activate. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 160,000.
While driving and high beam on, the headlights totally go out. Move lever on steering column to activate low beam, the lights come back on. This has happened a number of times and is very scary.
I own a 2000 chevrolet impala. The dimmer switch on the steering column has failed/misfunctioned several times and is now locked in a permanent "hi beam" position. The lights have totally failed in the past. A website named "topix.com" has cited many instances of this type of light failure, resulting in several near misses as regards serious accidents. T is very apparent (and evident from the number of complaints filed with your office) that this is a very serious safety issue for which chevrolet is denying the existence and/or responsibility of any problem. They are simply ignoring this serious issue and trying to charge anywhere from $600 to $800 to fix this problem this problem apparently extends through many model years, from 2000 (or earlier)to 2007/2008. It is only a matter of time before someone driving at night is killed because of this defect. Please advise what you have done regarding prior complaints, and what you intend to do to resolve this issue..
Turn signals have started not working intermittently. Not good if you have to merge into traffic on the highway. I have googled it and found that there are many complaints about this issue although not on this website. Most resources say it is the hazard switch.
Multi function head light switch I own a 2000 chevrolet impala I was driving home from work the other night the lights went off I had to hold the lever to engage the high beams the lights came back on as long as I held on to the lever. I went to the auto parts store to discover that this was a common problem with chevrolets the replacement part was 330 dollars very expensive .
Tl*the contact owns a 2000 chevrolet impala. The contact stated that the combination control switch was defective. Whenever the high beams were on and the low beams were activated they would not function independently. The gear lever box that was illuminated at night also failed. The VIN was not available. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure and current mileages were approximately 208,000.
My daughter with her permit was driving the vehicle and the turn signals stopped working in the middle of traffic. Luckily she pulled over safely and I continued to drive home. The hazards worked fine and after some research, the hazard switch is the failure. This has been going on intermittently for a month and finally they would work only one time after car was turned on. My local dealer wanted $400 dollars for a $60 part and labor. Thank god for used parts and an easy dash remove only seven bolts instructions online. Do it yourself for cheap. My daughter at 16 did most of it as I told her with instructions. I do love chevy will remain loyal but they need to wake up and solve some issues.
