I have replaced my hub bearings on my both front tires twice . I continue to get a grinding noise and jerking while I'm trying to accelerate. While reversing, turning left or right this happens. Also doesn't matter the speed. This is very dangerous as it almost caused me to get into several accidents. I put my money and trust into chevy. This should be absolutely be a recall.

When stabilizer light comes on, the vehicle jerks and the engine runs hard. It could come on while driving or when u turn on the car. Sometimes the stabilizer light turns off when shutting off the vehicle a few times. The vehicle would drink a lot of gas when the stabilizer is on.

Tl* the contact owns a 2015 chevrolet impala. While the contact was parallel parking with one foot on the brake pedal, he opened the driver's door and placed the other foot on the outside pavement. The vehicle suddenly surged forward and pulled the contact out of the vehicle. The contact's foot became pinned by the rear wheel of the vehicle. It took the contact half an hour to wiggle out from under the vehicle. The contact quickly shut off the vehicle. The contact was bruised and scratched and later received medical attention. A police report was not filed. The dealer (nimnicht chevrolet, 1550 cassat avenue, jacksonville, fl 32210, (904) 677-8823) diagnosed that the purge solenoid was stuck open and caused the vehicle to lurch forward. The vehicle was repaired. A week later, while driving, the engine revved and the contact had to depress the brake pedal with both feet. The contact shifted the vehicle into neutral and the engine immediately decreased from 3,000 rpms. The contact called the manufacturer and was provided a claim number. The manufacturer sent a claims representative to visit the contact, take pictures, and record the failure. The contact was waiting for a representative from the manufacturer to call him back. The failure mileage was 29,000. *tt

The vehicle is equipped with an auto stop/start that shuts down the engine to reduce fuel consumption. And when you put your foot back on the gas pedal the engine is suppose to engage itself again so that you can take off. Once my vehicles auto stop has engaged the engine is staying off for sometimes up to 2 minutes causing the vehicle to not move and causing a sudden jerking motion.

Initially it started out with losing all lighting control during driving for about 10sec after which it comes back on. This when on are about two months and about a week ago, I started getting the error message 'power steering drive with care' which alternates with another error message 'stabilitrak'. Each time this comes on during driving, the car jerks a little with the emergency park light for about 2sec and if I were driving with the cruise control on, it automatically disables it. This is regardless of how fast am driving.
