| I had a blow out on a front passenger tire. went to raise car on flat level surface. i used the car jack for the first time since buying the car two years ago. the jack failed to stay under the frame rail ridge. its was half way up and the car bent the frame of the jack and the threaded rod. luckily no one was near the car it just roll forward and crushed the jack. i was unable to straighten and fix the jack. bad metal or frame was not qa correctly. i had a police officer use the same jack on his squad car different year impala and it worked fine. i need to find a way to report the jack failure and get a replacement jack from the chevorlet company. do not want to go to a dealer or service center. the act of this failing is a safety concern to many impala owners and i would like the jack mail to me or replaced as soon as possible. *tr | |||

| I own a 2010 chevy impala on a short trip to shankville, pa. as i tried to slow down by tapping the brakes and the vehicle began to shake and pulsate violently. this happened again as i was taking my wife to the airport. the vehicle will begin to shake violantly when i apply the brakes at around 60 to 65 mph. i took the vehicle to the dealership and was told that the rotors are warped, and i should get new brakes with new rotors. i informed the individual that the vehicle had just had its yearly state inspection done by them in march of 2012 this was early august 2012 and the vehicle had only been driven less then 2000 miles. a check on the internet shows that the impla is prone to warped brake rotors. this is a serious saftey issue, | |||
