Blind spot detection system warning sensor (object sensor/ control module) on my vehicle has gone out. I was driving and all of a sudden my dash goes black. Then it cuts back on going haywire, all sorts of lights and warnings came on. I pulled over to check the car out, turning it off to see if a restart would fix the issue and the car would not start. So I had to tow to the dealer which in this pandemic was closed. When the guy at the dealer told me it was bad he said it goes bad from getting wet. Cars are supposed to get wet no? after looking online someone said that gm knows about this problem and redesigned the part to work better, yet they want me to pay almost $1000 to fix a problem they fixed for the same reason. This is ridiculous.

Car would not start and all of my sensors are going off needing to be serviced. Then it goes away. I drove it the day before with no problems. Go to my car the next day and all of my sensors are acting up.

"service side detection" comes on the dash everytime the car is started. Recently I tried to enter my vehicle and the fob did not unlock the doors after several attempts. Once it did, the car would not start. After several attempts of starting the vehicle it finally worked, but the gauges kept turning on and off even while the car was in motion as well as the door locks. This is the first time this has happened, but it was quite concerning while driving.

I have a chevy Impala 2015 with 1401k miles. I am experiencing gm bulletin n172097060 side blind zone alert module water intrusion issue. I was told by both the dealer (macmulkin Chevrolet in nashua) and gm that my issue is not covered due to the fact that my car has exceeded the 80k miles. I told them that I did not receive the notice until my car well exceeded the 80k mileage. The problem is getting extremely worse. It's effecting the whole electrical system of the car. The car's instrument panel is flashing all of the sensor alerts intermittently and my car will not start until I have it towed to a mechanic and they clear the faults. This has happened twice.

Side blind zone alert stopped working due to the poor design of the modules. This caused my gas gauge and odometer to stop working. In addition, the following lights came on and said they needed to be serviced: air bags, tires,theft system, check engine. After all of this, my car wouldn't start. I was left stranded. The faulty modules scrambled my computer in my car. The cost of this repair is around $1400 to fix, plus the modules will fail again and need to be replaced again. The modules are a poor design from gm. This seems to be an ongoing issue with these cars. Currently, gm hasn't been held responsible to fix the design of these modules. Not only do we have to pay for the repair of the faulty modules. We paid and still pay a hefty price for this vehicle. I wish I knew about this issue before I purchased this car. My car was parked and when I tried to start it, it wouldn't start. I finally was able to start it. As I drove it to the shop, I didn't have any speed odometer, turning signals or lights. This was very dangerous due to driving on a 4 lane highway in a busy city. To lose all gauges, lights, turn signals and to have other numerous "check" lights come on is very unsafe. I could have been rear ended.

Vehicle will not start sometimes after driving will usually have to giggle the key in the ignition to get the vehicle started back up. . Nhtsa recall #14v400.

While driving my car on a main street moving along at approximately 50 mph the car completely shut down, electrical system and motor. The car would not recognize the fob. Therefore, it would not restart. I put the car in park to restart. Therefore, it was stuck in park and I could not move the car out of the lane of traffic. We tried to re-set the system by disconnecting the battery and tapping the brakes. This did not work. After my husband had brought me the second fob from home the car still would not recognize the fob. I walked away from the car to re-set the fob. The car still would not start. After being struck in Friday afternoon traffic for an hour I called a tow truck. My husband tried the car again and it started. I drove the car home. The very next day I took it to the dealership and they could not find any problems. Two weeks later the car began not recognizing the fob again. The dealership cannot find the problem. I do not want to see any others get hurt from this problem.

I tried to start my car and smelled smoke. Something under the hood of my car must have been burning because there was a distinct smell of smoke when I opened the hood. When the road service attendant tried to jump the vehicle the next day, smoke came out of the fuse box and the car would not start.

I called Chevrolet customer service about a recall on the car. I explained the problem with the ignition switch and I were told it was covered under the recall #14v400000 electrical system: ignition. They had it towed to a Chevrolet service place to be fixed. I received a call that the problem was not covered under the recall and I was responsible for all charges of the work done on the vehicle. A key was made under the recall and the ignition key lock cylinder was not replaced. I paid the bill and had it towed back. The man that delivered it put the key in the ignition and it would not come out or turn. I do not feel I should be responsible for charges and they needed to change the ignition key lock cylinder. The car was in the driveway and when a person went to start the car the key would not turn and would not come out of the ignition switch. Resulting in the vehicle couldn't be started. I feel this whole recall was handled improperly and I should not have had to be responsible for charges. The frustration of how it was handled I feel they needed to be more professional about the way they handled this recall before they towed the vehicle to a service place and then make me responsible for charges of work done on the vehicle and towing vehicle back not fixed.

The power door locks are not working. When you try to start the car, the security light comes on and the car will not crank or turn over. In the rare instance you do get it to start, if you turn it off, it will not start again (anywhere from an hour to two weeks or more). I have done my research online and there are literally thousands of people whom own gm cars that are having the same problem with no solution. I cannot get help from anyone and am frustrated beyond reason, so hopefully you can do your research and figure this out! I cannot depend on this car and I am disabled!.

When stationary and the key is inserted, the ignition switch will not turn therefore the engine will not start. We have already taken it in for the recall and all that was done was the key was retrofitted but the ignition switch needs full replacement. This happened prior to the recall and continues to happen after the recall. Repair costs have become expensive and unaffordable!!!.

My car will not crank or start. . . . . It has something to do with the security system so I'm told. . . . . . This is a safety hazard. . . . This happens often when I'm far away from home! I have the key but the security system still shuts the car down. . . This time I went in the store for 10 minutes, when I returned to go home the car would not start.

Security light blinks and car will not start. Have to wait 10 minutes until the light stops blinking and try to start it again.

For the past few weeks I will go to start my car and it will not crank over. But the security light in the message center will blink constantly. At times while I'm driving it will begin to flash also. It takes about 15-20 minutes before my vechile will start after multiple tries.

On my way to work, I was making a next turn at a light when my car all of a sudden shut off and then turned back on twice in a matter of 15 seconds. This is very dangerous, if it wasn't for the very attentive drivers, I could've been rammed!!! the second incident was after I got off of work. My car was in a parking garage when this happened. I tried starting my car and it wouldn't start. I tried a second time and it started but the engine was revving really hard, like I was about to speed off or something. I turned the car off again and started it again for the third time and "service stabilitrak, service traction control, and reduced engine power" all come up on the service screen. After reading multiple forums online with hundreds of complaints about this. I was scared to drive home. I drove at about 40 mph all the way home (my job is a 25-30 min commute) and fortunately I didn't get stranded and my car didn't turn off in the middle of driving like some folk have experienced. Gm needs to address this problem. Why isnt there a recall yet?!.

Sometimes the vehicle will not start right away. The security light comes on and the vehicle will not start. We have had to wait 10 minutes to try again. To bypass this we have to leave the door open, insert the key and wait 5 seconds, turn the key to acc and wait another 5 seconds. Then we turn the key to start but do not turn the engine until the door open warning light comes on. This will give the vehicle a moment to pass the security issue and it starts right up. I hate doing this every time! there has to be a fix we can all afford. I have small children and in an emergency I do not have time to guess or hope or even waste 20 seconds to start my vehicle. This is annoying and it should be fixed at the manufacturer's expense. Or at least pay half of the repairs and diagnosis. Please take into consideration that an emergency trip to the hospital or urgent care should not be delayed by the what-ifs of a car starting properly or wasting 10 minutes to try again.

Arrived at job, finished and car failed to start. When key was in ignition it would not turn. I waited over night and tried again it would not start. Car was parked,could not shift, steering was not locked. With door open the car dinged when key was inserted in the ignition.

The ignition keeps locking out the cars ability to start. On numerous occasions this vehicle would not start after entering the vehicle. The lights would come on and when the key is rotated to the start position nothing would happen. Upon waiting for 10 to 20 minutes this vehicle will then restart. When taken to the garage to have maintenance done this vehicle never failed for them on twenty times of starting in a row. Took the car home and it sat and now it failed again. My daughter is about to be dismissed from her current job because of this constant failure to start. Lately, the time has grown. My daughter took a video of the incident and have taken it back to the dealer and they are not able to duplicate the problem. They said they had to jump it to start it and when questioned about it they stated it took them 10 to 15 minutes to gather all the equipment to get it to start. The problem would have resolved itself in that time. This is now becoming life threating as the vehicle stalls in traffic and an accident could happen. No codes are showing for this according to the dealer. This has been going on for approximately 5 months now and getting worse. In my opinion it is something to do with the ignition or security system. I hope nothing serious happens while my daughter is driving. This is the only vehicle she has for transportation. I am submitting this on her behalf.
