NHTSA complaint: 2004 CHEVROLET IMPALA — STEERING
MY 2004 IMPALA HAS THE ABS LIGHT ON. IT SOUNDS AND FEELS LIKE THE ABS IS COMING ON WHILE DRIVING. THE STEERING FELT ODD. I WAS RIGHT BY MY HOUSE SO I SHUT IT OFF AND TURNED BACK ON AND DROVE IT THE BLOCK HOME. I TRIED DRIVING IT AROUND THE BLOCK THE NEXT DAY AND THE SAME THING HAPPENED. I AM FINDING MANY PEOPLE POSTING THE SAME THING ON THE INTRANET. MANY CRASHES.I CALLED CHEVY AND WE READ / LOCATED THE SAME RECALL, FROM 6/14/04 #04049. WE IN TURN CALLED THE DEALERSHIP, AND AFTER MANY DAYS, CALLS, FINALLY GOT MY CAR IN. THEY JUST CALLED SAYING THERE IS NO RECALL ON MY SPECIFIC IMPALA. IT IS DOING EXACTLY WHAT ALL THE OTHER PEOPLE/CRASH VICTIMS TALK ABOUT. I CALLED CHEVY BACK AND THEY SAID IT GOES BY STATE. I GUESS I AM SUPPOSE TO DRIVE IT UNTIL IT CRASHES AND THERE IS AN INJURY/DEATH BEFORE THEY DECIDE THAT THERE ARE MORE IMPALA'S OUT THERE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM THAT NEED THE RECALL. I AM AT WITS END AND DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO NOW. MY CAR IS AT THE DEALERSHIP. I AM HAVING AN ESTIMATE DONE ON DOING WHAT THE RECALL STATED TO DO AND WILL THEN CALL CHEVY BACK TO TRY TO PUSH THE MATTER HIGHER UP THE CHAIN. *TR
