2000 Chevrolet Impala LS review from North America
"The style and lines make this car a head turner"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
In the first week of my purchase the turn signal wiring proved to be defective. I took the car in and it was fixed the following day.
My spark plug wires also proved to be defective during the second week. I had my car towed to the dealer, and it was fixed within 3 days.
The side airbag on the driver's seat isn't fitted right, or is otherwise not flush mounted to the seat.
General comments?
After the annoying, but easily fixable, problems which happened in the first month of purchase, the car has proven itself to be more reliable.
The seats are comfortable and have good leg room (as I am 6 foot 6 inches).
It has good acceleration and is very stylish, which gives it a sportier feel even though it is a 4 door car.
However, an SS model, if they had made one, would have been even better.
