My dealer said that EVERY SINGLE IMPALA WILL eventually have to have its ISS replaced. He said he is telling drivers to bring in their car before the warranty runs out even if there is a little play and lumpy feel in the steering shaft.
He also said GM is losing so much money that it has told dealers to try to grease the ISS first and if it happens again to replace it.
My dealer felt the ISS was so bad it had to be replaced.
I hope that the ISS on my car (If it needs to be re-greased eventually) will only need to have this operation performed at least once while I keep it under warranty.
GM until when!!!????
What's the minimum salary in Hawaii??
Like $20 per hour??
The Impala is definetely a luxury car over there.
Another factor, no competition between dealers, means high mark-ups, there is no competing market place for new vehicles.
When we immigrated in 1996, there was two cars with Hawaii license plates, parked next to our car on the lot of our apartment complex. Hamden, Connecticut.
A friend told me it costs about $1,500 to ship a car to Russia by sea from the East Coast of USA or Canada. Hardly it would cost more to Hawaii.
Lima! I bought mine in Alliance Ohio but it has leather.
mileage 19,500 at replacement on 1/29/02.
clunk started at 18,000 miles.
It felt like new as I drove it off the lot.
I hope GM does something to take care of this problem. The Impala is selling good, but if this becomes a weak point like on the Intrigue sales will probably start going down.
I thought they only had beans in Lima, OH.
They can keep their 4x4's.

Car is pristine and continues to excel at near 11K miles and ZERO problems. Brake pads/rotors look excellent. Tires are wearing nicely and evenly. Next rotation due in 3K miles. Cold A/C that effectively cools down the cabin in under 5 minutes, even if the exterior temp is at 90F plus humidity. Solid, a blast to drive!
I'll check your site, Nathan....
Thanks!

My dashboard looks pristine and even the heat hasn't been able to messed it up.
Before I do, though, I want to look at an Impala they have on the floor. If that one looks the same, forget about it - I'll live with it.

I did have a handsfree package for my cell phone installed, including a bracket thats right beside the radio, so they would probably just say that it's being caused by that install.
I've decided to just live with it (unless something else in the dash needs work).

You've sold your soul to the devil, haven't you? Genie, maybe? Magic mirror?
I would like to do the job myself, including the wiring if it is not too difficult. If anyone can share any experience or advice, it would be appreciated.
Thanks
It isn't a show-stopper, ya know.

The only issue I have with it is the receiver is quite far under the bumper. I had to get a fairly long draw bar to attach the bike rack to. Other than that it's great - very unobtrusive.

They were $59.99 for the Chrome I will know if I am keeping them the minute I take them out of the box. I hope they are in fact better than some $19 Walmart el cheapo's....They should be if they are $60 a set....I like them because they might have a better finish than the OEM's and I hope the Chrome is not like that of a Wrigleys Wrapper...
Click to enter then click on "CHROME" Wheelcovers,16" they are towards the bottom, they show a pic of the Silver "painted" one for reference. I got the Chrome Picture from JC Whitney, Search Wheelcovers and you will find them there, but they are more $$ and exorbanant/SLOW shipping is always a JCW thing....Don
