2006 Chevrolet Impala SS review from North America
"Handles nice, should have waited a couple years until Chevy worked out the kinks"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Motor ticking at idle. Dealer said "that's normal".
Have replaced the A/C because of noise, still doing it though. Dealer said this is normal too. Good thing the doors aren't coming off because this would be " normal" too!
Steering gear squeals when turning, dealer IS going to replace this.
Paint peeling on rear fenders.
Also leaks or uses oil... nothing on dipstick when I checked it between changes.
General comments?
Nice color --- Pearl white.
