Open the full vehicle complaint log (all categories)2004 CHEVY IMPALA: IN AUG 2007 HAD PASSENGER SIDE WHEEL HUBS REPLACED. THAT WA AT 54,000 MILES. NOW IT IS MARCH 2008 AND 25,000 MILES LATER THEY NEEDED REPLACED AGAIN. I HAVE HEARD THAT IF THEY FAIL ALL THE WAY THE WHEEL LOCKS. IS THIS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE?? THERE ARE OTHERS OUT THERE WHO HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AND THE GM DEALERS IGNORE IT. *TR
THE TIRES KEEP LOOSING AIR IT TAKES ABOUT 2 DAYS FOR THEM TO LOOSE ABOUT 10LBS. THEY ARE LEAKING BECAUSE OF CORROSION OF THE WHEEL WHERE THE TIRE BEAD HAS TO SEAL. THE CAR HAS THE INDY SPECIAL EDITION CHROME PLATED ALUMINUM WHEELS. THE PROBLEM IS CAUSED BY THE CHROME PEELING OFF OF THE ALUMINUM IN THE BEAD AREA THE CORROSION CAUSES DEEP PITS THAT WILL NOT LET THE TIRE SEAL. THE DEALERSHIP RECOMMENDED TO PUT INNER TUBES IN THE TIRES WHICH ARE UNSAFE BECAUSE OF SUDDEN DEFLATION IN CASE OF A PUNCTURE. THE WHEELS WOULD COST I THINK OVER $2000 TO REPLACE THE SET. I THINK THIS IS VERY BAD QUALITY ON CHEVY PART. 4 WHEELS BAD ON A CAR IS NOT A NORMAL MAINTENANCE ISSUE. IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE OF THE CONSTANT AIR LOSS. 2004 CHEVY IMPALA SS INDY EDITION. *TR
TIRE PRESSURE WARNING LIGHT ISSUE HAS HAD AT LEAST FIVE VISITS TO THE DEALER! *TR
DT*: THE CONTACT STATED THE PLASTIC HOUSING CAP THAT COVERS THE HUB NUTS BROKE OFF WHICH MADE THE TIRE DIFFICULT TO REMOVE. ALTHOUGH THIS OCCURRED TWICE ON THE RIGHT REAR HUB CAP HOUSING, THE OTHER PLASTIC HOUSINGS WERE NOT AFFECTED. THE VEHICLE WAS SEEN BY A DEALER AND THE PLASTIC HOUSINGS WERE REPLACED AT THE CONSUMER'S EXPENSE. UPDATED 2/27/2006 - *NM
2004 CHEVROLET IMPALA LEFT FRONT TIRE BLEW OUT. *TS THE CONSUMER LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND STRUCK A CONCRETE BARRIER. THE DRIVER COMPLAINED THAT HER NECKED HURT. *JB
