All the lights are flashing on dashboard. Car won't start. No gages work on dash. Lights won't work blinkers don't work. Radio panel is black. I had same issues in 2018 and had to replace detection module and harness on both sides. Paid $1200. Now I am having the same issue again.

Blind spot detection system warning sensor (object sensor/ control module) on my vehicle has gone out. I was driving and all of a sudden my dash goes black. Then it cuts back on going haywire, all sorts of lights and warnings came on. I pulled over to check the car out, turning it off to see if a restart would fix the issue and the car would not start. So I had to tow to the dealer which in this pandemic was closed. When the guy at the dealer told me it was bad he said it goes bad from getting wet. Cars are supposed to get wet no? After looking online someone said that gm knows about this problem and redesigned the part to work better, yet they want me to pay almost $1000 to fix a problem they fixed for the same reason. This is ridiculous.

I have a chevy impala 2015 with 1401k miles. I am experiencing gm bulletin n172097060 side blind zone alert module water intrusion issue. I was told by both the dealer (macmulkin chevrolet in nashua) and gm that my issue is not covered due to the fact that my car has exceeded the 80k miles. I told them that I did not receive the notice until my car well exceeded the 80k mileage. The problem is getting extremely worse. It's effecting the whole electrical system of the car. The car's instrument panel is flashing all of the sensor alerts intermittently and my car will not start until I have it towed to a mechanic and they clear the faults. This has happened twice.

While driving, side detection error. All gauges started jumping around and not working. After shut off car and tried to restart, it wouldn't turn over. Checked and battery was ok but ignition was acting like no power. Tow truck to the dealer. Dealer said it was a known issue and they would repair for free. That was 6 weeks ago and it is still sitting at dealer because the part is on back order. Chevrolet will not cover the cost of a rental vehicle. I have talked to 4 different people (I have kept escalating) over a 3 week period - however with no resolution. After my last request for escalation, they said I would get a call back in 3-5 days. That was 2 weeks ago and I've never received a call back. Dealership is unable to provide an estimate of when the part will be available.

My side detection system has failed and not working on my 2015 chevy impala lt. My car nearly caught on fire twice now. White smoke was billowing from my taillights and before that my entire instrument cluster went dead. At first it said to have it serviced. Then my fob would no longer unlock my doors without manually using it, the same day my car would not start. I had all sorts of lights and warnings go off. My whole computer system went haywire thus not being able to start my car. After getting my car started, I did not have any gauges, lights,nothing. It was very dangerous driving

I have had my car back at the dealership where I purchased this car new 21 months ago, 3 times now, and the dealer cannot fix the problem. The car all of a sudden will not start, and I am told the battery is fine and no codes are stored. When trying to start vehicle, elec. Stability control warning begans to flask on screen, but vehicle will not start.

They replaced part # 2410350 electronic brake and traction control module with brake pressure modulator valve and part # 23208065 f (s) module reprogram ed and bleed the system said they road tested it for 40 miles with 6 ignition cycles but the mileage when it went in was at 16036 and when it came out was at 16055 as you can see on the document I am attaching. They returned my car to me on august 28, 2015. But they could not tell me if this could happen while I am driving the car. On december 19, 2015 I went to start my car and it would not start so again I called gm roadside assistance they sent a tow truck and he took the car to the local dealer for service they the cause was a defective battery 4041510 battery replacement 247 w and replaced it with part# 88865245.
