Tl- the contact owns a 2010 Chevrolet Impala. The contact stated that the vehicle stalled several times and when applying force to the brake pedal it went to the floor and did not stop the vehicle on numerous occasions. The contact constantly saw the sensor for the abs illuminate and the air bag is off light intermittently. The contact inidicated that while traveling 60 mph, force was applied to the brake pedal and it did not stop the vehicle causing the contact to crash into the rear of another vehicle. The air bags did not deploy. The contact was not injured. A police report was filed. The insurance adjustor had the body damages to the vehicle repaired by an independent repair shop, however the failure continued to recurr with the brake pedal and the air bag sensor showed off when the crash occured. The contact was later notified of NHTSA campaign id number: 14v355000 (electrical system ) and was waiting for parts to get the vehicle repaired. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired by the authorized dealer and the contact was waiting for the parts and approval from the manufacturer to remedy the recall. The contact was told parts were not available by one dealer and another dealer indicated that they would repair the vehicle without parts. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 70,000. Dyd.
At first it was when backing up and turning sharp. The traction control message would come on and a grinding like sound from the front driver wheel area. Later it included the abs warning and would also occur after backing with turn and going forward at that moment. Now randomly when pulling out and the service air bag light comes on. Recently also the oil pressure low message and dummy light come on 3-4 times before stopping (and yes the oil pressure is good with correct oil, tires, pressure, brakes, sensors all check good). Best guess diagnostics is shorting in wiring harness that can not be located until it fails completely. However with grabbing with traction control when pulling out and air bag problems it is obvious this is a safety hazard.
