"Good car, but has issues"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

The power steering pump went out at 48,000 miles and the head gasket had to be replaced.

The wires on the harness were burned out and my heat and rear defrost would not work.

There were other minor repairs that were performed once I took the my car to the dealership.

Currently, I received a message to tighten the gas cap.

Now my engine light is on.

General comments?

I was so happy when I leased my Impala.

It was fast and drove smooth.

I love the car, but I have experienced trouble with it.

Highway mileage is good, but city mileage isn't.

With gas prices increasing, the Impala is not economical.

The dealership was very friendly and accommodating when I took my car in for the many issues.

The repairs were covered under warranty and I was given a free rental.

When I took my car in for repairs, other consumers were there who had experienced the same problems.

I can't wait for my lease end, but I have enjoyed my Impala.

Sometimes if the gas cap isn't tight enough, the engine light will indeed turn on. I'm not sure if it will automatically clear itself or not. Hope so. Anyway, good luck.
