My understanding is that a rain leakage into the front passenger floor is a very common problem with 2003 and 2004 Chevy Impala's. This is a safety issue due to mold. My complaint is about the fact that this is not a safety recall under NHTSA that Chevy Dealers must repair at no cost. I have this issue and it is a big problem for health and safety, so the fact that it is not a recall is infuriating. This is NOT a simple wear and tear problem. It is a manufacturing or design defect in 2003 and 2004 Chevy Impalas.
- Electrical system
My car sometimes cuts off while driving. Was on highway 301 running about 60 mph in the middle lane and just lost power no warning. No code no nothing. Sacred me, I truly feel that's a safety issue, for me and the cars behind me. It's bad not knowing when or where this will happen again.

I have a 2003 Chevrolet Impala! Look it up on the internet, and you will see that the failure rate of the GM passlock system is huge, and massively expensive to repair! In fact from a inside relative, says GM makes more money in parts, and repairs than on selling a new vehicle! This is without doubt a premeditated flow to rip off the public! This is in fact insensitive for GM to engineer a constant, and ongoing failure of the of its vehicles! This passlock defect can not be fixed by accessing the cars computer! It should be that easy but it is not a option. Being stranded by this defect is life threatening. The problem is the Passlock system that has failed for me, and hundreds of thousands owners of GM vehicles, and tens of millions of dollars in repairs that GM should be forced to repair, at no costs, past, and present to the owners, and including towing, and a rental car! The passlock defect, and failure completely locks up the cars entire electrical system, so the owner can not start, or even open the trunk of their car in a emergency! After it happens you can’t even access the car radio to reset back to the original factory functions! Even if you disconnect the battery, to get this accomplished, it will be a short while before it happens again! It is crazy expensive just to diagnose this problem! Please note that this is not just a Impala problem! This passlock defect falling involves dozens of Models of all types, old, and new. These vehicles number in the many hundreds of thousands over decades! Many tens of millions of dollars in repairs, and hundreds of thousands waiting to happen! This needs to be addressed at a government level! We won’t to see some consumer protection, and Justice! Thank you for your time, and consideration!

Traveling at 58 mph in Cruise Control for 10 minutes I increased speed with 4-6 rapid pushes of the Accelerate button in less than 1.5 seconds, Each push is 1 mph. I have never pushed it that rapidly.The engine acted as if I floored the accelerator & the transmission went from 4th to 3rd gear…
Traveling at 58 mph in Cruise Control for 10 minutes I increased speed with 4-6 rapid pushes of the Accelerate button in less than 1.5 seconds, Each push is 1 mph. I have never pushed it that rapidly.The engine acted as if I floored the accelerator & the transmission went from 4th to 3rd gear, speed went to 70+ and rapidly increasing. I stepped on the break pedal several times to disable CC but no help, I switched the CC button to the off position several times, no help. Now at 85+ and accelerating hard in wide open throttle (WOT). I shift to Neutral and turned the ignition to the ACC position to retain steering ability as the engine was RPM'ing out to destruction. I coasted off the highway and set ignition to off. After a few minutes I turned engine on and it rev'd out of control, still WOT. Ignition off did not reset the problem. I opened the hood to disconnected the battery & I observe that neither the CC or accelerator cables are not holding the throttle body (TB) in "WOT", it was closed in an idle position. It is not mechanical. I disconnected the battery for several minutes and then the system operated normally. I have used CC a million times but never have pushed that accel button that fast. I served 7 years as a Reactor Operation onboard US navy Fast attack Submarines, have torn apart and assemble mechanical and electrical reactor systems. I have been a Hardware Engineer for 40+ yrs and have 10 US patents in fault tolerant server design. I've been a car guy since 5 yrs old. This is a problem with the cars computer or its code. The rapid pushing of the CC accel button is key here as well as memory retaining this CC state after Key OFF. Its a good thing I experienced with many hard casualty life and death situations while serving, because my car was accelerating out of control, my experience and training in the US Military taught me to keep cool and think.You really should investigate this. I can tell you more specifics but I'm character limited.

On 3/21/2021 I was driving on the freeway for about 25 miles, when my 2003 chevy impala started making a whining noise and it continued to get worse with each turn. My husband soon realized it had to be the power steering fluid. So he put a bottle of power steering fluid in and after starting and driving for a few minutes the car was back to normal! So I proceeded to get back on the freeway to head home. as soon as we got to our exit about 23 miles from where we had just put the fluid in. It started making the same whining noise. So back to the store for more power steering fluid. He fills it up. The next morning same problems. We know now there IS a leak in our power steering but not sure where exactly. My car now sits as we can't afford to be adding bottle after bottle of power steering fluid to my car everytime we need to go somewhere. My husband believes we have run into the same issues that have recently been reported by nhtsa ID# 11316116 being power steering return hose rubs against some part of the motor and rubber hole in power steering return hose.

The incident happened this morning as I was leaving for work. My car was parked in our driveway and had not been driven in 2 days. I got in the vehicle and put the key in the ignition and as soon as I turned it to start there was a loud bang that sounded like a gunshot which I thought was a backfire. The entire plastic intake manifold gasket had exploded into pieces and white smoke began to rise from under the hood. When I opened the hood and the smoke cleared I began to assess the issue, I noticed the manifold gasket cover had been blown completely off and the manifold itself was in pieces. I've done some research and this seems to be a common but uncommon thing among early 2000's gm vehicles.

Vehicle didn't start, security light was flashing, was told to turn the key into the 'on' position and wait exactly 10 minutes before trying to start it. It worked, but the issue became worse and worse until it no longer started. Was then told to replace keys, did that, same issue. When blinkers were used, a loud buzzing noise occurred and every light on the dash lit up, the gear shift labels began flickering and the stereo did as well. The dealership has replaced the bcm and the ignition switch, and it had finally started, until I went to try to go somewhere. No one knows what IS going on and multiple people have said that this issue IS very common in this type of vehicle.

On a cold start my car will not start for at least one time, and once you get it on the highway the car will surge and jump rpms and occasionally will just die and leave me stranded on the highway. I've replaced just about every sensor relating to the issue and the fuel pump and still have no idea what IS wrong. I still owe money on the car and I'D rather just figure out how to fix it.

Rear right brake line leaking fluid. This could be a fatal accident if I was on the highway. my 2003 chevy impala rear right brake line IS rusted badly. The brake line actually rubbing against an across line that has a bunch of electric lines bundled together which IS going over the rusted brake line and ends up causing the brake line worn out and brake fluid leakage. This could be a serious safety issue. IS it possible the administration could conduct a research on the model of this car for this issue?

A total of 646,038 subject vehicles were sold during my 2001-2003, and the complaint and warranty data tabulated above apply to the total vehicle population.complaint reports alleging headlight outage represent slightly more that one-half of the total number of complaints and the balance are allegations of flickering and dimming.investigation disclosed the root cause of the malfunction to be wear of a contact plunger in the multifunction switch that may result in a temporary open circuit, with the plunger in a neutral position between high- and low-beam contact points.consumers consistently reported that manipulation of the switch handle on the steering column restores either high or low beam headlight function.no other potential safety related issues, e.g., fires or windshield wiper failure, were found to be related to this issue.the manufacturer recognized the subject headlight issues from failure and warranty reports, and issued a redesigned plunger in 2003. The manufacturer did not identify a defect requiring recall and remedy.odi has determined that the rates of occurrence, the failure mode and the real-world consequence of the alleged defect as compared to other similar investigations fail to identify a safety-related defect trend.this preliminary evaluation has been closed.the closing of this investigation does not constitute a finding that a safety-related defect does not exist.the agency may take further action if warranted by the circumstances.
