We bought this car new and we really like it. I had heard they were noisy inside but this on is very quiet. Great ride and I love the trunk. Have not taken any long trips yet but recent 100 trip gave us a nice quiet and comfortable ride. Have only had it a couple of months but very pleased so far. I really like the style and looks of this car
Good value

I bought this car August of 2010. It was between the Malibu and Impala. I was able to get the Impala cheaper than the Malibu. So I got more for my money. As of today I have 21,000 miles on it. This car has been great except of the steering was squeeking and the rear struts where squeeking after owning it for three months. But I took it in and the greased the steering nuckle and replaced the rear struts. No other problems since. That could have been the problem. I recently noticed that my front rotors needs to be turned, but the way we drive in detroit, it happens to all the cars I own lol. I get 29mpg, and thats great for the way I drive.
Whistle type air leak

I purchased a 2010 Impala in Oct. 2012 with less then 19,000 miles on it. When I am driving down the road with the window down and air button circulating air from outside there is a whistle from the passenger side. If you turn the fan on it stops. If you have the button circulating the air inside the car there is no whistle with the window down and fan off. I have been told now that all the Impala's do this. Really? I don't believe this is true. Why would you manufacture a car that when you drive it you can't enjoy due to whistle. I am fed up with the run around from the dealership. I had a 2004 Impala and my friend has 2009 Impala and they don't have the whistle
I used to like this car but now I don’t

I got this car in august of 2020 with 98k miles on it, ltz trim level I have a issue with the way it drives and performance, my first issue is vibrating idle goes away when air conditioner turned on. Replaced. Plugs wires and coils. Replaced map and maf sensors and all the other maintenance that’s needed. Still no difference, I have had 8 different mechanics look into it and they can’t figure it out. And the money light refuses to turn on Second issue is the transmission, when taking off after sitting at a stoplight for 5 minutes. The car will accelerate and then slam as if I was just rear ended. Took it to my local transmission shop and they don’t know what’s causing that issue because the computer isn’t showing anything. So now I am forced to wait until the transmission breaks completely for them to I mount it and look inside of it. It’s ridiculous. I shouldn’t have to feel like I’m being rear ended every other stop light. I honestly hope this car breaks down so I can address the issues. And that’s sad to wish that. Oil leaks are very common in this car and especially engine. Every gasket has been replaced except rear main seal. This car feels sluggish despite it being a 6 cylinder. The road noise is pretty noticeable on the highway. I have to turn my radio half way up to drown out the sounds. I like that it has tons of room especially inside the trunk The blind spots take a little bit to get adjusted and the side view mirrors are pretty small. Overall I’m happy with my car somewhat. It’s not even the vibrating idle because I usually have my air conditioning running anyways. It’s my transmission. The 4T65E are completely junk I wish gm gave them a more durable build Other than that. Decent gas mileage especially on highway and the seats are pretty comfy

Hope all the LTZ's weren't built this badly!

I had one that had to be built on a Monday; horrible amount of repairs made to it. June 2018: Sold it. Bought a sweet 2015 Mercedes Benz C300 4-matic with 31,000 miles.....huge quality difference. Won't go back to GM.

Climate control

I have not one but two parts ticking from my climate control! I already replaced one and it didn't last 6 months and is bad again! Now I have to replace two of them. It ticks at random times and eventually ruined my battery. I don't even have to be in the car and it starts ticking. This should be a recall since they're putting cheap parts made in China! I bought an Impala because I thought they were good cars. I already had to replace the transmission at 72,000 miles! It went completely out with no warning! They really need to stand behind their product! I'm a very unhappy customer and not sure I'll ever buy a Chevy again!

Expensive manufacture defect maintenance

Expensive maintenance due to manufacture defects not covered under warranty. Transmission failure at 94,000 miles. Worn engine oil intake gaskets and valve seals at 50,000 miles. Brakes and rotors/drums rust and wear out fast. Climate system actuators fail at 80,000 miles. Air bag harnesses needs rewired and wires gets smashed under seat. Drivers side seat belt receptacle broke. Safety features are not covered under lifetime warranty. Passenger air filter compartment is on the outside of the car and water can leak inside the passenger side dash and get into the fuse box and corrode wires. It’s a great car if you keep up on the maintenance.

Week Long Rental

I was given the 2010 Chevy Impala Lt to drive while my 2008 Mazda 3 was in the shop. I came away missing my Mazda real bad. Gas Mileage during the week averaged 21.3 which is terrible because I drive mostly highway to work. The ride is pretty comfortable compared to my Mazda. The V6 engine is nice on the highway, but acceleration seems slow. Overall my Mazda is much more fun to drive.
Alignment issue
