Although this vehicle is a police car it is supposed to be built for police service according to General Motors yet is is not holding up like the Ford Crown Vics.
Attempts to talk to GM customer service have failed with excuse after excuse, but no help in rectifying these problems.
I suppose you're right, but a police package car is built for that usage. But I would never compare a new 06 up 9C1 to the 94-96 police Caprice, even the 00-05; they aren't the same cars anymore. Caprice was Chevy's last real police car like Crown Victoria PI body on frame. They can take a beating like a pickup truck ram, and tow highway patrol 260hp 330tq low down more than these new FWD Impalas for police use.
