Follow-up on complaint# 10650094. I have researched this problem,and tried to get assistance from gm with no results other that the run-around. I have explained that the recall of this vehicle and repair that is suggested is not the issue. The ignition is a 2 part switch and the mechanical part of the switch is only part of the problem. The issue in my case is that the electrical part of the switch is what controls the power, brakes, airbag, and all other functions. You need to look at the entire switch assembly. The electrical part is what failed.

I have had this car since it was new. In 2008 it died on my wife,luckly she was able to pull over to the side of the road. To make a long story short she has never drove it since. I have spent about a $1000 bucks trying to find out what is going on. It will start up after you get stoped and put it in park. Ihave took it to the chev dealer and left it with them and it never acts up so they are not any help. You never know when it is going to die on you so you must always drive in the right lane so you can pull over. You loose power stering and power brakes. I have called gm and ask them about it but they just say there is not a recall on my car. After watching tv about all the gm cars that are diying I think my car is doing the same thing. I think it is the key switch. Ilike the old car and would like to keep it but I'am about scard to drive it . I am 68 years old now and don't have sa much get up and go as I once had.

Driving freeway speeds around 60 car shuts of very dangers. Then car started back after 10min.
I have been experiencing this issue for over 1 year, but my Impalas engine will just stop running while in travel up to 65 mph causing problems with inability to steer, or brake while in traffic. Numerous reports in online searches have indicated that there are many Impala owners that are experiencing the exact same issues, but according to them gm is not doing anything about the issue and those same owners are only paying high service fees at gm dealerships with the problem never being fixed. I suspect that in the future my Impala will be involved in a collision due to this problem, but I have no choice but to drive it as it is.
