general problems of the 2006 Chevrolet Impala

Displayed on panel "reduced engine power" . On star diagnosed service code "p2138". On 05/01/2012 while driving through a large intersection my engine power was reduced to 3 or maybe 5 mph. I was trying to get through the intersection without the acceleration that was so desperately needed. This is definitely a safety issue. In addition to being concerned about getting into an accident, I'm fearful I will be the one causing a fatal pile-up. I have been to the chevy dealer 4 times and they were unable to fix this problem.

I have a 2006 chevy Impala and there seems to be a problem with the transmission. We have taken the car to the dealers several times. We have changed the spark plugs, changed and flushed the transmission fluid. We are still having the car jerk off at a stop light. We you are stopped on an incline it also hesitates to go into gear and the jerks away! the dealer can never find a anything wrong and we have done all the recommended fixes. This seems to be getting worse. The gas cap and solenoid have also had to be replaced which everyone has had problems with. Gm should recall these cars before someone gets hurt!.

I have a 2006 Chevrolet Impala. The gas pedal sensor failed while driving at highway speed, causing a loss of power to the engine. The part is gm25830023. I have had this to a Chevrolet dealer to have fixed, but the part is unavailable from gm. According to the dealer, this is a common problem and they have 2 other Impalas waiting for the part as well. I have been unable to use my car since April 14th.

The gas caps of 2006 Chevrolet Impalas have a design defect in the gas caps which allow for the cap to fail and the evap solenoid to fail.
