| Bought 2006 impala lt used in june 2009 with 41,000 miles replaced the factory tires didn't like the way they rode. started hearing a grinding noise that got louder with acceleration mechanic said all four tires were bad wearing on the inside. the tires only have 21,000 miles on them and most of my tires last me 40,000 minimum. did some online research found numerous complaints about premature wear for tires on chevy impalas. looking at another $500 + for brand new tires if the place i bought them doesn't uphold the warranty which is for 50,000 miles/5 years. i really like this car but there a numerous problems major and minor gm needs to focus more on quality. | |||

| My traction control, abs and service brake assit light continue to come on despite the fact that i have had the sensors replaced 3 times now. i will hear a growling noise when i put on the brakes or get a foul smell when i turn on the defrost, also when i get that smell the defrost doesn't work properly then later the abs, traction control and brake assist light will come on. i have had a chevy dealer and the dealer i bought the car from check the problem and say its fixed 3 times but the problem continues. | |||
