Faults:

Motor ticking at idle. Dealer said "that's normal".

Have replaced the A/C because of noise, still doing it though. Dealer said this is normal too. Good thing the doors aren't coming off because this would be " normal" too!

Steering gear squeals when turning, dealer IS going to replace this.

Paint peeling on rear fenders.

Also leaks or uses oil... nothing on dipstick when I checked it between changes.

The first month I got the car something went wrong with the charging system. The dealership changed a sensor and replaced the battery.

About 5 months later only 7,000 miles on it... the transmission was slipping. The dealership kept it for a month the had to rebuild the transmission.

A Year Later 15,000 miles again having problems with the charging system and the battery was replaced.

When the dealership had the car I had them check 3 of they 4 windows because the were making weird noises when rolling them up.

All 3 Window motors were Replaced.

I've now had the car for 3 years. It's Beautiful but it's a lemon...

The transmission is slipping again the dealership will not help me because the warranty has expired.

My Impala will not drive in reverse and again charging system is out. Car won't even start. Starter is bad.

My car is beautiful and luxurious but it's a lemon... I have had nothing but problems with it for the last 3 years.

Faults:

The power steering pump went out at 48,000 miles and the head gasket had to be replaced.

The wires on the harness were burned out and my heat and rear defrost would not work.

There were other minor repairs that were performed once I took the my car to the dealership.

Currently, I received a message to tighten the gas cap.

Now my engine light is on.

General Comments:

I was so happy when I leased my Impala.

It was fast and drove smooth.

I love the car, but I have experienced trouble with it.

Highway mileage is good, but city mileage isn't.

With gas prices increasing, the Impala is not economical.

The dealership was very friendly and accommodating when I took my car in for the many issues.

The repairs were covered under warranty and I was given a free rental.

When I took my car in for repairs, other consumers were there who had experienced the same problems.

I can't wait for my lease end, but I have enjoyed my Impala.

Faults:

Engine light went on: was some type of egr tube on the engine. Replaced at dealer no cost under warranty.

Back trunk lid developed a small rust spot. Dealer fixed no charge under warranty.

Ignition key barrel went bad causing the car to make chiming and dinging noises when exiting the car. Replaced by Dealer no charge under warranty.

General Comments:

All of the problems with the car were all minor and fixed under the warranty.

The dealer was fantastic, I dropped the car off in the morning they drove me to work, picked me up at work, drove me back to the dealer and gave me a loaner car to drive. The next day I picked up my car with no hassles what so ever.

This car has plenty of power out of the 3.5 engine (211 hp).

With gas so expensive I turned in my Dodge caravan from lease and bought the Impala used.

This car gets great millage (approx 29mpg) and seats 6 passengers.
