This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
2001 Impala. Pressed unlock on vehicle remote at 4:30 am. The headlights were supposed to come on and did not. I tried the headlight switch, and still no headlights. Two days later, the headlights came on momentarily, then went out. The headlights haven't worked since. I talked to a mechanic that agreed that the multifunction switch has gone bad and needs replacement. He has replace quite a few.
Headlights went off for several seconds, at night, and came back on working the dimmer level. Thank god we were not in heavy interstate traffic. No manufacture should be allow design headlight circuits that can malfunction through faulty switches. Why were the allowed to defer from the old way going straight from battery? my repair source indicates this is not an new problem. I understand there could be problems with the wiring plugs overheating, since there is a "jumper "supplied with replacement. Five day order replacement.original owner
Intermittently while driving at night the headlights failed.this caused poor visibility to the driver. Vehicle was taken to the dealer for inspection, but mechanic could not duplicate the problem at this time.
While driving the vehicle stalled while driving 70 mph, the passenger side headlamp blew, the roof molding was lifting on both sides, the drivers side window leaks air and the window hits hard in the top of the door jam, when going over bumps the vehicle shakes and there is a clunking noise under the vehicle, the dealer replaced the steering shaft and the tie rod ends yet the problem still exist.
