2000 Chevrolet Impala Base review from North America

41k-When I first got the car, all the brakes were bad. They replaced the front rotor at no cost. Beginning to hear the all familiar clunk from the front end.

42k-The fuel pressure regulator leaking gas into engine compartment. Clunking sound checked, nothing wrong.

45k-The blower for the a/c-heater would only work on 5. Replaced resistor under warranty.

47-Had the clunking fixed, warranty wouldn't pay for it. 143.00 to lube it. They had to take it out, lube it and put it back in... if they took it out... why not put a new one in??? Clunking sound gone.

48- shaking while driving down the road. Had alignment done and balance and rotate. Still there! Took it to the dealer, said they couldn't feel it. I then took it somewhere else, they said it was the tires. Replaced, problem fixed.

51k- airbag light keeps coming on and then back off. I replaced the stock radio and put in a stock CD player, light hasn't come on since. Transmission kicks rather hard when trying to up-shift. Also makes the car jerk when going into overdrive. They changed the transmission fluid. Seems to be OK.

53k-Engine is starting to miss and want to stall out. I'm thinking spark plug, or maybe fuel filter. Will fill you in.

The car rides great, and it's very comfortable. These cars hold up awesome in car accidents. I'm an EMT and have seen the cars just mangled, but the main cabin in the car is intact! The crumple zones are very well designed. This thing should have a five star crash rating.

I drove some nice loaner cars, I like the style of the car. As long as I have a warranty, I'm all set:)
