Power Train Problems of Chevrolet Impala - part 2

I have a 2018 Chevrolet premier Impala that has started skipping gears at 1st and 2nd while driving. The vehicle shudders when it changes gears. Took vehicle to dealer who informed me that the transmission needs to be replaced already. I haven't received any dash messages or vehicle warnings prior to noticing the transmission problem. I always kept the car properly serviced by the dealer for all routine maintenance requirements. I am the original owner of this vehicle. The car has under 100,000 miles. Dealer informs me that it will take at least a week before they can possibly get new transmission for vehicle. I may be without vehicle for at least 2 weeks minimum.

The manufacturer patented stabilitrak system continues to fail on my vehicle. Initial odi 114406439. Dealership charged $1,7832. 15 to replace transmission control module (tmc) on 11/5/21. On 12/22/21 vehicle indicated the exact issue (service stabilitrak), took vehicle to same dealership, awaiting response. The car is not drivable when "service stabilitrak" is indicated as engine power is substantially reduced. Gm technical service bulletin pic5992a seems to apply to my issue. However, chervolet and the dealership says it does not apply, but continue to charge for engine light analysis and unnecessary, expensive repairs. Your assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Automatic transmission shifting problems. Shifting from starting to any kind of incline resistance, car can not shift through first 2 gears. Shaking, rumbling, check engine light flashing, engine bogs, car slows down, causing safety concerns. Had car checked at dealer. Reprogramed transmission. Did not fix it!.

The car can have moments of power loss where the speedometer suddenly, erratically spikes while the tachometer slightly lags. It almost stalled my vehicle while transmission was in drive while stopped. It feels like dragging when the power loss occurs. This has occurred randomly for the past month, mostly during interstate driving with cruise control operating. It has happened the last six times I have driven, but the previous several times it did not occur. It also occurred in a similar random fashion for the prior two weeks. When it does occur it feels like power drain and deceleration that can last a second and this will occur several times during a twenty minute drive at 70mph. Mechanics at two shops seem confused and don't know where to begin except for a transmission fluid flush. That was completed and the problem has persisted. There are no related error codes. To lose power suddenly and unexpectedly could cause an accident especially if a system failure shuts off the vehicle while driving. This vehicle has had an oil consumption/burning problem since I bought it with around 60,000miles. It needed 2 quarts of oil added between the last oil changes. I have spent $1400 in July of this year on gasket replacements and that did not stop the leak. More gasket heads and an oil pan are going to be need to replaced and the estimate is another $1400. This is too much to be spending on possibly related issues in a short time span that may not resolve the problem.

Service stabilitrak message displayed and reduced engine power to 0 mph while driving. Throttle body, accelerator pedal position sensor (whole pedal assembly), and ecm replaced. Issue continues. P2138, p2122, p2127 codes present. Stonebriar Chevrolet incompetent to resolve.

Transmission pulls back from second to third gear around 20 mph. Serviced transmission fluid and problem persists. I personally checked the transmission by removing trans cover and determined the problem; he shifting solenoids are faulty.

The car was stopped at a stop sign, turned right onto the highway and the front wheels locked. The car would not move in any gear, even in neutral. A tow truck had to place front wheels on skids and drag onto the bed. The transmission repair shop never saw anything like it, all the gears on the trans axel were stripped smooth and metal fragments all over the inside of the transmission. Very dangerous situation if there would have been oncoming traffic.

The car has been in the shop twice within 6 months having it. It was towed twice, once for transmission issues and having no power to it at all then it back in the shop for warning lights. I also had it in the shop for about an hour to have a new tire put on it after loosing air. It had to be towed back home for all the brakes being shot and I'm now having an issue with the rear left caliper having a slow leak, the rear left sway bar is also broken in half. The whole entire car has issues and the leasing company and dealership refuse to do anything to help along with not helping me get the payment down. After one thing gets fixed, another thing happens. The suspension is getting bad and has been like that since my fiance and I got the car. The dealership said everything was new and fixed. We had 2 kids in the car and their safety was put at risk as well as others that got in the car. The car is getting to be a death trap for me. The warning lights that were coming on were service stabilitrak, service brake assist, service trac control and service brake system. These were coming on after I had the car in the shop for the transmission issue. Those lights are now not coming on. My fiance and I were told by the dealership that the brakes were new, nothing mechanically wrong with the car and drives smoothly, this was said before we took the car for a test drive. We were there to buy a car but after we signed the papers, we were told it was a lease.

The evap core started leaking a month ago had the car for 2 years and as I read online its a common issue and chevy doesnt want to fix it. Sometimes the transmission shifts hard but doesnt happen often.

I have replaced my hub bearings on my both front tires twice . I continue to get a grinding noise and jerking while I'm trying to accelerate. While reversing, turning left or right this happens. Also doesn't matter the speed. This is very dangerous as it almost caused me to get into several accidents. I put my money and trust into chevy. This should be absolutely be a recall.

There is a slight vibration around 20 to 30 mph as gears are shifting and it goes away. . . Does it repeatedly at same position and everything goes back to normal. . . No codes or lights on dash happens mostly in motion on inclines and even ground at same speed grouping.

It was a recall issued in 2014 for stabilitrak for bad grounds on my chevy Impala and I went to chevy about it and paid for the diagnostics to check and they told me it was the transmission that I needed. Also, the paper doesn't tell me I needed a transmission fixed, so I took it to 3 different transmission shops and they said it was the ground that was bad. But I was not paying for it and it was a recall issued in 2014 that is happening and is happening to several others as well. I called the gm and asked if its anything they can do about it since it was unde recall they are saying no. And the I have to go pay for diagnostics again so they can see what it is because it may not be same and I did before and chevy said it was the transmission and the other shops said the transmission is in great shape it was the grounds thats bad and that if the issue was under a recall it should be done again. I take this as safety issue and it puts me and my family in danger and it is my only transportation . So I have my son picking me for work.

Car continuously gets a reduced power message and goes down to 25 mph. In mid January did the same thing, but stalled on i90 ohio turnpike. Almost hit by a semi truck. Have had the car in the shop no less than 5 times for the same problem. At gm and non gm repair shops. We have had this same reduced power on city roads, and the highway, it seems always when it is wet, rainy or slushy. It really appears to be a water causes the problem. We have paid for two sets of throttle body, speed control sensor and harnesses. The problem continues to persist and appears to be dangerous.

When driving up hill at low speed a rough cluck occurs when gear changes take place between 2nd to 1st gear.

When you start it the speed and rpm' s start jumping the coolant gadget waves at you then when you put it in reverse or drive it bumps when you driving you don't know how fast you going because of the gadget bouncing up and down to top it off its jumping the whole time you driving it.

Sometimes when driving an "engine reduced" warning will pop up and when it does so, the car limits the amount of power applied when accelerating. I have to turn it off and sit a few minutes before it goes back to normal.

The brakes are automatically stopping while driving on a city street. The transmission has a pressure valve code that will not give a definite reading. The airbags light stays on along with the abs and stability trak light staying on.

The stabilitrak system gm installed on my vehicle repeatedly indicates a "service" notification. Once this occurs, my vehicle loses power and the ability to shift into any driving mode. This issue began around 60,000, I currently have 77,500+ on my vehicle. Gm issued a technical service bulletin (pic5992a) for my vehicle, however, denies it's the issue and will only attempt a repair from a computer code, which they continue to fail to replicate. The occurrence of this issue is especially worrisome on any interstate highway. Odi 11406439.

Transmission has hard shifting after engine warms up, only has 44,000 miles on it. Stop and go traffic seems to start the problem faster than highway driving.

I dont understand why my car shows no misfires until today and its the fuel control module but it resets and goes away then back again like its remote control. While stationary battery is fair/ alternator fair.

In my 006 Impala ss the transmission is starting to slip. The car is around 83,000 miles when I first noticed this issue, and the vehicle wasn't doing any hard acceleration (around 20-25 miles an hour shifting from first to second gear). I am worried that I will have to pay to get it replaced.

Gears skipping and shruddering between 2nd and 4th gear. Chevrolet dealership recommended engine mounts replaces which was a false diagnose. After further inspection and diagnosing, they revealed that my transmission needs to be replaced for 6200$. I paid the 6200$ and now transmission shifting hard into 2nd gear.

The vehicle was in motion when exiting the freeway the vehicle lost all power without warning. The vehicle turned off completely no power steering or electrical indications of problem shown on dashboard. After pulling over putting the vehicle in park, it turned back on without any problems. The vehicle has 35736 miles and this is the second occurrence. The first time I was pulling up to a stop light as I was waiting for the light to change the entire vehicle turned off, all power train and electrical as well.

As I was driving my car acted as if it was going to stall wouldn't go pass 45-50 miles per hour. I went to a automotive shop just to find out the catalyst converter it's very dangerous why driving in the car stalls.
