When someone sits in the passenger seat the air bag light comes on. This has been going on in the both of the Impala's that we have had. This is the second one different year.
I purchased a 2011 Chevrolet 2011 Impala lt car recently. I find that the heights of the three back-seat head rests are extremely hazardous for a driver of this car. Each head rest is five inches too high to see out the back window. I had not heard before hand that the 2011 Impala was well known for this problem until after I had purchased the car. Recently, because of my limited visibility past the left back-seat window head rests, in backing my car, I bumped a parked car. My left rear fender struck the license plate holder of that car. The cost of this fender repair was $983. 00. I fear that my driving this car without changes made in the construction of these head rests is leading to another more serious accident waiting. To happen. I will appreciate your attention into this matter. Thank you.

I own a 2011 Chevrolet Impala which has a serious traffic hazard involving the three rear head rests affixed/sewn - which makes them non-adjustable. The problem is aggravated by the fact that the head rests are higher than most vehicles. The fixed position of these head rests block the driver's vision out of about one third of the rear window. The middle head rest is especially troublesome. I wrote general motors about this approximately 2 weeks ago and they have not responded. The sales and the service departments at the dealership are well aware of my concerns. Nhtsa complaint 10358310 was also filed concerning this identical problem, I have 61 years of driving experience - all sizes/types of autos. In my considered opinion this is a design flaw. I have raised the driver's seat to the highest setting and have tried all possible adjustments to the inside and side mirrors in an attempt to solve this to no avail.
