| 5 days after purchasing the impala i sliced my leg quite severely (2x3 and 1/2 deep) simply by closing the door. the bottom corner of both the driver and passenger door come to a very sharp point. because of my age and size i need stand fairly close to the door to close it. this vehicle is very dangerous, especially for children and elderly, actually anyone who may be a little weaker than average. i tried to return or exchange vehicle but dealership wanted me to take a $4315 loss. i would stay away from this vehicle and dealership | |||
