general problems of the 2013 Chevrolet Impala

Driving home on 9/3/22 I began to turn into a curve in the road at which time the brake light on dash came on and felt as though one wheel in the rear locked up. 2 seconds later it caused my car to spin uncontrollable down the road and slide into ditch however I slid into a field entrance and it caused my car to roll more then once and landed on passenger side. Airbags did not deploy at any time during this accident.

Since I purchase the car December 2016, I have had an issue with the front driver wheel well. From a tire rod, cv axle, wheel hub, and the stabilitrak off light. Today, I get an engine light and my car slowed down drastically. Now I have a check engine light, service stabilitrak, engine power reduce, stabilitrak off and traction off!.

My brake catches while driving and under dash board makes noise and when you turn on the heater it makes noise and all my dash board hazards light are on and want go off wiper radio front seat. This car has been nothing but trouble and the shop I took it to told me to contact you because this should be a recall issue.

The wire harness that controls the left front abs and stabilitrak broke causing the abs to engage on it's own while driving on the highway. After reading online it is apparent that this is a common problem with the Impala that even has a TSB for the problem. This is a extremely dangerous issue that should be recalled. I have attached a picture of the broken harness along with the $272. 94 bill for having the dealer repair it.

2013 Chevrolet Impala. Consumer writes in regards to front end noise while traveling at a low speed. The consumer stated that the wheel bearing was replaced, but the failure continued.

My car makes a grinding sound when I turn left and loses power, also today the service brake assist and the traction lights all came on when I was driving. I have read many things from many people about this certain problem and it is costly to get this fixed and I feel something should be done about this. This could be very dangerous trying to turn into traffic and having your car lose power.

Unwanted traction control/abs activation at low speed. It usually happens from a stop when turning left, but also has occurred at low speed when turning left, when going straight over a bumpy road and also when turning right. The roads are dry. Traction control/abs activates with a distinct noise and vehicle hesitation. Dash lights/notifications are usually not activated however service traction control has appeared a few times. This is a safety issue especially when making left turns and the vehicle hesitates in the middle of the turn with on-coming traffic. This has been ongoing for one and a half years very intermittently, but has become constant now every time the car is driven. The car has been to the dealer 3 times for 6 days over the last 2 weeks and has not been fixed. I finally drove with a mechanic and easily replicated the problem several times. The car is currently at the dealer for a 4th time (after the mechanic verified that there is a problem). The car is a safety hazard and the problem must be repaired permanently.

I have a chevy Impala I bought it a year ago July 2016 my service traction control light, service sabilitrak , and service brake assist keeps blinking on and off while driving my brakes automatically contracts as if my car is trying to stop itself making me jerks and the car jerks reported it to my finance company that finance the car and the company that I bought the car from so it should be on record thank you for your time. P. S my car brakes contracts, jerks when I am driving on the street and on the freeway. My car brakes contract when I am driving in motion and when I'm turning after I come from a complete stop.

The contact owns a 2013 Chevrolet Impala. While driving 25 mph, the electronic stability control warning indicator illuminated. While attempting to make a right turn, the front driver's side wheel seized, and the contact's vehicle was rear ended by another vehicle. There were no injuries and a police report was not filed. The vehicle was taken to the dealer to be diagnosed, but the mechanic was unable to retrieve a fault code. While test driving the vehicle, the mechanic experienced the failure. The contact was informed that the front driver's side wheel hub assembly, stabilizer bar, the front driver and passenger side tie rods, and brakes should be replaced to mitigate the failure. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure recurred. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 80,000.

When starting from a standstill, the traction control system seems to kick in and the indicator light comes on. Initial occurrences only seemed to happen when turning left from a standstill, but now it is occurring when turning either direction from a standstill. This is occurring at low speeds on both dry and wet pavement with very little acceleration (I. E. , no tire slippage).

Break and steering system defect. While driving the antilock break light came on, also the traction control, stabili-trak, and break assist lights started flashing. The car was being driven in downtown traffic at moderate speed. The vehicle was taken to a local dealership who said that this was not a safety problem (what!!!!) and that it was not covered under the drivetrain but only part of the 30k coverage. They then said it would be at least a week before they could look at the car. (break and steering issues not a safety problem?) in doing some checking on the internet it appears that this is a serious and ongoing issue with cheverolet and gm vehicles for several years. In addition to the above problem there have been even more serious side effects associated with the break, stability system. Some even reported to your department. It would be good if your department would be proactive and have this issue investigated by someone other than gm. Before there are fatalities associated with this issue. Perhaps you could spend some time looking at the various forums on the web and see that there seems to be a major problem here. I doubt anything will be done but thank you for allowing me to vent. I am writing this to help my son out since it is his car, and he a) has a full load in college and b) he is a less happy camper than I am.

The contact owns a 2013 Chevrolet Impala. While driving 65 mph, the stabilitrac control, service traction control, esc, and engine warning indicators illuminated. The cruise control light turned off and, while depressing the brake pedal, there was a clicking noise coming from the glove compartment. In addition, when the accelerator pedal was depressed, the vehicle failed to accelerate. The failure recurred twice. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 45,000.

Abs multiple times this vehicle will lock up the brakes when attempting to pull out of a parking lot or make a turn from a slow speed I. E. An intersection this has nearly cause many accidents. After doing research on it as well my vehicle is not the only one with this problem its out there and it is a huge safety risk. This problem will occur about 80 percent of the time when turning from a stopped position or slow speed of anywhere from 1mph to 15mph.

My stabilitrack and abs keeps coming on and off. It does not matter if I am driving on a side stree or on the beltway. Beltway driving is dangerous and scary as the car seems like it is brakeing and then speeding up. Making turns it does the same and "jumps" when I use the brakes. This is all very dangerous situation and should be looked at ASAP. I has been happening for 5 months and the service people can not see any issues.

The contact owns a 2013 Chevrolet Impala. While driving 10 mph and making a left turn, the abs, traction control, service brake assist, and check engine lights illuminated. The vehicle began to decrease in speed while the accelerator pedal was being depressed. On several occasions, while the vehicle was in reverse, an abnormal noise could be heard. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failures. The failure mileage was approximately 39,000.

The contact owns a 2013 Chevrolet Impala. Shortly after the vehicle was repaired for a recall with the ignition switch, the stability, traction control, abs, and other warning lights randomly flashed. The failure progressed each time the vehicle was reversing and when making left and right turns. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 69,000.

When accelerating from a stop while turning left, abs engages and brakes left front wheel creating a very dangerous situation stopping the car in intersections without warning. Service stabilitrak, service abs and service brake assist messages also appear on dashboard message center. All warning lights reset when vehicle is turned off, until a left turn is made while accelerating again, and the above issues occur again.

The contact was depressing the accelerator the whole time this was happening and then the vehicle started operating normal. The vehicle was not taken to a dealer or repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 70,376. Ed.

I have only had this car for 3 months and everything was fine until I made a left hand u-turn and all kinds of bells went off- service stabilitrak-service brake assist- service traction control-I called the dealership and just to put it on the machine to see what's wrong is $126. 00 - quite frankly I don't have that kind of money to spare- I am extremely frustrated and according to research I have done this is a common issue that Chevrolet is not acknowledging-.

The contact owns a 2013 Chevrolet Impala. While making a right turn, the vehicle hesitated. In addition, the abs, traction control, and service stabilitrak warning lights illuminated. The failure recurred numerous times. The vehicle was taken to a dealer, but the cause of the failure could not be determined. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 40,000. The VIN was not provided.

Traction control intermidely comes on affecting take off speed and steering resulting in abs system coming on. Happens mainly when starting out form a stop. Cannot accelerate from a complete stop or make consistent turns.

The contact owns a 2013 Chevrolet Impala. The contact heard abnormal noises that progressed without warning. The vehicle stalled several times and the contact had to make several attempts to get the vehicle to restart. Tn addition, the abs and traction control stabilizer warning indicators illuminated multiple times when the failure occurred. The vehicle was taken to the dealer more than three times, but they were unable to replicate and diagnose the failure. The contact was unable to determine if the vehicle would be repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The VIN was not available. The approximate failure mileage was 30,000.

When steering wheel is turned left and now right the front end grinds at times but not all the time. However, it seems to be getting gradually worse, grinding more often. The "service stabilitrac system" comes across the dash panel and now it is stating "service brake assist". All the while nothing seems to be wrong with anything up front. This happens upon acceleration. This can happen in city streets, parking lots and freeways. I happens anywhere upon acceleration. There is no point at which the grinding is taking place can be seen. This seems to be a problem that Chevrolet has with all the models of this particular vehicle yet they are denying anything is wrong with the vehicles.

I have had this worked on about 1 month of purchase. I was told the cheap ball bearings in the wheels are faulty. My car makes a strange noise when I turn the steering wheel and it lunges for a split second and then engages forward. Also when I am braking down a steep incline, the brakes grab and jerk the car slightly. This has gone on since I purchased this car.

Car warning lights come on for traction control breaks and throws car into oncoming traffic at random times without warning. It is very unsafe and is on a recall list. I should not been sold a lemon car.

The contact owns a 2013 Chevrolet Impala. The contact stated that while driving 5 mph, the brake pedal was engaged but the vehicle failed to decelerate and the contact crashed into another vehicle. There were no injuries or visible damage to either vehicle. A police report was not filed. The failure recurred three times while the contact was driving at low speeds. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the defect. The approximate failure mileage was 38,000.
