2013 Chevrolet Impala Power Train

TFP Switch(Sensor) 4 Circuit Low Voltage

ABLE TO SHIFT GEAR POSITIONS BUT THE INDICATED SHIFT POSITION DOES NOT REPRESENT THE GEAR POSITION THE VEHICLE IS IN. WHEN I STOP AND PARK THE VEHICLE, I AM ABLE TO SHIFT THE LEVER TO THE "PARK" POSITION, BUT THE VEHICLE IS NOT ACTUALLY IN PARK POSITION. I CURRENTLY HAVE THE EMERGENCY BREAK ON. VEHICLE WILL NOT STAY IN PARK WHEN GEAR IS IN PARK POSITION. THE LIGHTEST TOUCH WILL KNOCK GEAR SHIFT INTO REVERSE AND CAR ROLLS AWAY.

THE AIR CONTROL KNOB MAKES A TICKING SOUND. IT DOES WHEN YOU OPEN THE CAR DOOR OPENS, IF THE WIND SHIFTS, OR WHEN YOU ARE ADJUSTING THE TEMPERATURE IN THE CARR

WHEN DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS (EG 20MPH) AND THEN RE-APPLYING GAS PEDAL TO ACCELERATE THERE IS A LARGE JUMP/KICK FROM WHAT SEEMS TO BE THE LOCK UP O F TRANSMISSION AND ENGINE. ALSO THE POWERTRAIN DOESNT FEEL SMOOTH WHEN DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. IT SEEMS AS THOUGH SOMETHING IS LOOSE OR NOT ROTATING ON THE CORRECT AXIS. I HAVE TAKEN CAR TO DEALER AND MECHANICS ABOUT 7 TIMES THIS YEAR ALL TO NO AVAIL. THE VIBRATIONS AND UNSMOOTHNESS AREN'T EXPERIENCED IN COMPETITOR CARS THAT I HAVE DRIVEN. THIS HAS OCCURED OVER THE COURSE OF 7 MONTHS.

2013 CHEVROLET IMPALA RENTAL CAR. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO SHIFT INDICATOR ISSUES *TGW THE CONSUMER STATED GM THOUGHT IT WAS A GOOD IDEA TO REMOVE THE LETTERS FROM THE SHIFT INDICATOR CONSOLE BETWEEN THE TWO FRONT SEATS. INSTEAD, GM PUT THE SHIFT INDICATOR AT THE VERY BOTTOM OF THE SPEEDOMETER, DIRECTLY OVER THE STEERING WHEEL. WHEN THE STEERING WHEEL WAS TURNED LEFT OR RIGHT, THE SHIFT INDICATOR ON THE CONSOLE DASH WAS BLOCKED BY THE STEERING WHEEL. FURTHERMORE, THE HANDS OF THE DRIVER, WOULD ALSO BLOCK THE INDICATOR ON THE SPEEDOMETER.
