Almost had an accident I want to know why the 2013 model of impala has not had any recalls as the 2010 models with same issues..... My vehicle has the same major issue and need to be addressed & Recalled...... The 2013 Chevrolet impala LTZ Need to be Recalled to fix this issue for the safety of my family and the families on the road and Highways........ I can't express more the need of recall for my vehicle!!!!! I attached documents on the pervious 2010 model recall that had the same issues....

Stabiltrak ABS traction control warning lights all come on vehicle shudders and power is reduced. Researched and found 100's of reports of the same issue with the impala and similar complaints in the light truck and SUV models. Fix is relatively inexpensive if your mechanically / electrically inclined as involves splicing in a new wire harness for the ABS sensor. Said harness is about $20 it shorts out due to insufficient gauge of wire used on original factory install. Replace harness has much sturdier gauge from what my research says. Repair shop quoted $700 to repair glad I told them to put it back together. They have a fleet of impalas as loaners so they know they are gouging people when they say replace wheel hub assembly ABS sensor and wiring harness when they know it's the ABS sensor period. Chevy needs to do a recall. Issue happens when car is in motion after turning or going over a bump wiring that has been wore thru due to placement of wiring in a high friction area, wire wears through coating exposes wiring that shorts out and sends codes to computer concerning ABS stabiltrak and traction assist causes vehicle to behave erratically others have reported caused vehicle to stall and not restart until problem corrected. I'm sure they are gouged for a thousand $ or more. Wet road conditions,extreme heat or cold,left turn while backing, jarring bumps, all trigger the dash to light up like christmas tree dinging alarm goes off steering shudders power is reduced. It's a huge distraction and safety concern for so many to be experiencing gm should stand up and take care of the problem.

It keeps saying on the odometer electric stability control or track and lower the power. My car was on motion on a city street with cars all around us. I've read that several people were having trouble with the same thing. Why don't they recall

There is a "known" issue with this vehicle, especially when turning left. The car will decelerate and traffic is a safety issue. I found the cause via google and needs to get addressed. The car will always display driver feedback on the dashboard. It simulates when driving through an icy patch. The car will not excel but rather decelerate. This happened to me just last week turning into payton manning children's hospital.

I was in motion on a 50 MPH state road, when all of a sudden my dash started dinging and when I looked down it stated "service stabilitrac" , and "engine power reduced". My car suddenly went down to about 40 MPH and would not go any faster. It appears chevy has had recalls for this issue, but not for my model year.

My vehicle has 66,000 miles on it. I am taking it in for the 3rd time due to the service stabilitrak and service ABS warning. The car makes a grinding noise in the front end when turning (usually left) or when shifting from reverse to drive. The front speed control hub has been replaced twice to supposedly correct his problem. However, since it is happening again, I am relatively certain that the hub will need to be replaced a third time. That is unacceptable in a vehicle with only 66,000 miles on it.

At roughly 26,000 miles my ABS, stabilitrac, and traction control lights came on. I took my car to dealership to repair ignition recall, they replaced the ABS wire harness and corrected the the problem. At roughly 56,000 and 86,000 the ABS, stabilitrac, and traction control lights came back on. I am carrying my car back into the dealership again tomorrow for the 3rd time for the same issue. My car is now decelerating on its own and the wheels are abruptly locking. The car is moving during all of these incidents. My car has begun flashing ABS, stabilitrac, and traction control lights and abruptly decelerating on its own at 60/75 miles per hour.

Tl* the contact owns a 2013 chevrolet impala. The contact stated that the electronic stability control warning indicator kept illuminating. While making left turns, the wheels on the vehicle made an abnormal noise and the speed reduced. It was difficult to accelerate each time the failure occurred. The vehicle was taken to the dealer more than twice for various repairs, but the failure recurred. The manufacturer was notified. The approximate failure mileage was 76,000.
