I purchased a 2006 impala gt in january. Around august 3, 2006, my fob key stopped working. I called the dealer and set an appointment for sat. Aug 5. They fixed my key and as i was leaving an employee informed me that she had to get her key fixed approx. 6 times. Monday, august 7, 2006 as i was walking to my car i tried to unlock my doors and i couldn't; my keys failed only 2 days after having it fixed. I called the dealer to see if i could bring it in. I was informed i had to make an appt. I made one for saturday because they refused to let me bring my car in after i came home from work even though they closed at 7:00 pm. I took my car in saturday and a customer service rep tried to fix it himself. He couldn't, so they took it to the back. As i am waiting for my car, a man bought in his chevy cobalt for the same reason, his keys would not work. Once my car was ready the rep gave me a receipt and told me that they usually didn't fix keys on the weekends...i had them fixed the week before and no one said anything, plus i had an appointment.
Reduced engine power light came on, then car stopped. I was not far from home on the first failure. The car was towed to dealership. They found a bad ground wire and replaced it. The second failure , the reduced engine power light came on and the car stopped. I was on the interstate this time and was towed. They found a brake switch shorted and wire shorted to the bcm this occurred on 10-12-05. Nowwhen the wipers are on high the car rocks from front to back !
The vehicle ran hot, when i went to check on it, i suffered severe burns on the upper portion of my body sending me to the hospital.a week later the vehicle did it again after the dealership claimed nothing was wrong with it.

Dt*:the contact stated the trunk was not accessible with a key.the only entry available was by the key fob.also, the release inside the trunk would not be visible if locked in the trunk.the dealership determined this is how the vehicle was manufactured and no repair was available.updated 3/17/2006 -
Transmission slams into gear from a start. Transmission will slip while stopped then jerk into gear and accelerate roughly. Dealer will not cover as it is intermittent.
New 2006 chevy impala transmission does not engage upon acceleration after coming to a complete stop when transmission is cold.this causes hesitation upon acceleration after stop signs and traffic lights.
Center console shift button sticking, making difficult to shift from park to drive.

My eight year old granddaughter had cut her left leg just above the knee when entering the right rear door of the new chevrolet impala that we had just bought that same day, april 29, 2006.there is a "latch plate" located on the lower door jams of both rear doors and they are openly exposed and have very sharp edges.as she was entering the vehicle, her left leg brushed across the "latch plate" causing her injury. She required emergency room treatment and three stitches in her left leg.the design and location of this "latch plate" make it dangerous for persons entering and exiting the through the rear doors of this vehicle.
Water leak to rear of vehicle.
Tire pressure monitor system failed key fobs became inoperative including remote start, issues are related gm has placed tsb.
Dash has come up from windshield
Sunshade warped.
Rear window defogger not operating due to loose wire, causing to spark when going over bumps did not know this till recently vehicle may have caught on fire if i did not see it was detached from the windsheild.

A week after picking up the vehicle, the driver's window was making screeching sound when lowered.i took it back on july 3, 2006.the inside door panel was removed and the actuator was lubricated.less than a week later the screeching noise came back. I then took it back to the dealer and was told that chevrolet was in the process of making new window seals but they were not yet available.i was told to wait until my first oil change and by that time the new gaskets should be available.
