2004 Chevrolet Impala air bags problems

“Car has turned off 3 times while sitting at a light and took hours to turn back on, car shudders when breaking sometimes and abs/traction control/air bag lights will come on, and will shudder and turn off while driving.”

“WELL THE CODE WAS TELLING ME TO REPLACE THE IGNITION SWITCH. THE CURRENT ONE IS RATHER LOOSE AND DOESN'T TURN OFF ALL THE WAY WITH OUT A LITTLE EXTRA WHICH HAS BEEN CAUSING OTHER ELECTRICAL ISSUES.

“DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY TRAVELING ABOUT 60-65 MPH AND THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED FOR NO REASON. NO DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE. THE PASSENGER AIRBAG DEPLOYED FIRST AND THEN 2-3 SECONDS LATER THE DRIVER AIRBAG DEPLOYED. POLICE WERE CALLED AND MADE A VIDEO REPORT OF THE CAR WITH AIR BAGS DEPLOYED.”

THE CONTACT SUSTAINED INJURIES TO THE LEFT HAND AND SHOULDER, BUT NO MEDICAL ATTENTION WAS REQUIRED. THE POLICE WAS ON THE SCENE, BUT NO REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THEY WOULD SEND AN INSPECTOR TO INSPECT THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 104,000.”

THE DRIVER SUSTAINED A CONCUSSION FROM HITTING HER HEAD ON THE STEERING WHEEL OF THE VEHICLE. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 170,000.”
