I know this shouldnt be a safety issue but on most every impala the AC does a clicking noise and blows hot when the AC is on and blows cold when the heat is on ( which could be a safety issue because you cant get the windows to defrost) most people I know their impala does this. This should be a factory recall. When there are so many out there doing this same issue. The car will not even be running and the ticking noise will start if you shut a car door beside it.
Seatbelts aren't locking up, when turning it's giving me delays then normal acceleration kicks back in.
