2000 Chevrolet Impala Lights Problems

Your intake manifold is subject to a Takata recall and needs to be serviced. Additionally, your fuel system isn't delivering fuel to the engine properly. You should contact a Chevrolet dealer to address both the recalled intake manifold and have the fuel flow system diagnosed and repaired.

EXTERIOR LIGHTS 133,000 MILES LIGHTS WENT OUT ON MY 2000 IMPALA IN MAY 2014. THIS IS WHAT HAPPENED. I HAD FRACTURED MY LEFT RIB AT HOME AND WAS DRIVING TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM AT MERCY HOSPITAL WHEN I HIT MY BRIGHT LIGHTS, BECAUSE THE ROAD WAS DARK, AND ALL OF MY LIGHTS WHEN OUT. I PULLED OVER AND KEPT CLICKING THE LIGHTS LEVER AND IT WOULD GO FROM NO LIGHTS TO BRIGHT LIGHTS WITH EACH CLICK. I GOT THE LOW BEAM TO FINALLY COME BACK ON AFTER SEVERAL BACK AND FORTH CLICKS. THE POLICE STOPPED ME THAT NIGHT BECAUSE I HAD TO USE MY RIGHT HAND TO CLICK THE LIGHTS, WHICH IS ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE CAR, WHICH CAUSED ME TO WEAVE A LITTLE. HE ALSO OBSERVED ME PULL OFF THE ROAD FOR A MINUTE, TO GET LIGHTS BACK ON. HE SAID HE THOUGHT I HAD BEEN DRINKING BUT SAW THAT I WAS HURT, 65 YEARS OLD, AND I EXPLAINED HOW MY LIGHTS HAD JUST GONE OUT ON ME WHILE I WAS DRIVING TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM AND I HAD TO KEEP CLICKING THE HIGH BEAM, LOW BEAM, BACK AND FORTH TO MAKE LOW BEAM COME BACK. HE SAW THAT I WAS HURT AND COULDN'T USE LEFT ARM AND HE SAW HOW I HAD TO LEAN OVER WITH RIGHT HAND TO KEEP CLICKING SWITCH TO GET MY LOW BEAMS TO COME BACK ON, KEEPING IN MIND, I?M IN SEVERE PAIN. I WAS ABLE TO GET LOW BEAM BACK ON WHILE THE OFFICER WAS STANDING THERE AND HE SAW THE PROBLEM AND UNDERSTOOD AND TOLD ME TO BE CAREFUL. NO TICKET. I DON?T USE MY HIGH BEAMS ANYMORE. ALSO, I HAVE NO LIGHTS IN THE CLUSTER, I CAN'T TELL MY SPEED, I USE MY PHONE TO SEE HOW FAST I'M GOING AND THEN SET THE AUTO DRIVE. I CAN'T SEE THE GAS GAUGE, BUT THE LOW FUEL LIGHT WORKS, IT WILL COME ON AND NO INDOOR LIGHTS ON TOP OF DOORS. HOWEVER THE RED SECURITY LIGHT ON THE DASHBOARD WORKS. WHEN I OPEN CAR DOOR IT'S COMPLETELY DARK, I HAVE TO USE A FLASHLIGHT OR MY PHONE TO SEE OR LOOK FOR THINGS. *TR

WHILE DRIVING AND HIGH BEAM ON, THE HEADLIGHTS TOTALLY GO OUT. MOVE LEVER ON STEERING COLUMN TO ACTIVATE LOW BEAM, THE LIGHTS COME BACK ON. THIS HAS HAPPENED A NUMBER OF TIMES AND IS VERY SCARY. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 CHEVROLET IMPALA. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING AT SPEEDS OF 50 MPH, THE HIGH BEAMS WERE ENGAGED AND WHEN SET BACK TO LOW BEAMS, ALL INTERIOR AND EXTERIOR LIGHTS WERE ILLUMINATED ON THE VEHICLE.

THE TURNING SIGNALS ON MY 2000 CHEVROLET IMPALA FAIL INTERMITTENTLY. I HAVE NOW HAD SEVERAL CLOSE CALLS AS A RESULT. A SIMPLE SEARCH ON THE INTERNET REVEALS THIS IS NOT A UNUSUAL PROBLEM WITH THESE CARS. JUST PASSING THIS ALONG IN CASE ENOUGH PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR

TURN SIGNAL WILL GO OUT AT RANDOM TIMES AND WORK AGAIN ONCE I HIT THE HAZARD SWITCH. *TR

I HAVE A 2000 CHEVY IMPALA AND THE TURN SIGNALS FLASHER STOPS WORKING EVERY NOW AND THEN AND I FOUND MANY OTHER COMPLAINTS ONLINE ABOUT THE SAME PROBLEM. I HAVE TO PUSH THE HAZARD SWITCH A FEW TIMES TO GET THE SIGNALS TO START WORKING AGAIN. IT IS VERY HARD TO TELL WHEN THE SIGNALS STOP FLASHING BECAUSE THE LIGHT STILL COMES ON AND TURNING WITHOUT A SIGNAL IS NOT ONLY GOING TO GET ME A TICKET BUT IT'S DANGEROUS. I ALSO READ THAT CHEVY HAD TO DO A RECALL ON THE SAME TYPE OF PROBLEM ON THE MALIBU BUT HAVE NOT ISSUED A RECALL ON THE IMPALA. *TR

TURN SIGNALS NOT WORKING WITH NO APPARENT REASON. THIS ISSUE WILL HAPPEN AND THEN START WORKING AND THEN QUIT AGAIN. NOTHING HAS BEEN ABLE TO HELP THE ISSUE. *TR

MY CAR IS A 2000 CHEVY IMPALA. THE HIGH BEAM SWITCH WILL NOT CHANGE THE LIGHTS FROM LOW TO HIGH. AS WE ALL KNOW SOME ROADS ARE DARKER THAN OTHERS AND HARDER TO SEE AT NIGHT. I CANT PUT MY LIGHTS ON HIGH BEAM AND 2 NIGHTS AGO I HIT A BLOWN TIRE OFF A SEMI THE DAMAGE WAS MINIMAL BUT COULD HAVE BEEN FATAL. I AM A GOOD DRIVER WITH OVER A MILLION MILES ACCIDENT FREE. GM NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS. I HAVE READ ABOUT A LOT OF THESE CARS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR

THE TURN SIGNALS AND HAZARD LIGHTS ON MY 2000 IMPALA DO NOT WORK ALL THE TIME. THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN GETTING PROGRESSIVELY WORSE. THE TURN SIGNALS MAY WORK ABOUT 40% OF THE TIME. WHEN THEY DO WORK THEY MAY JUST QUIT W/O WARNING. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESS. WHEN THE PROBLEM FIRST STARTED TO OCCUR, I COULD TURN ON THE HAZARDS AND THIS WOULD JUMP START THE BLINKERS AND THEY WOULD WORK FOR A WHILE. THIS NO LONGER WORKS, BOTH THE HAZARDS AND THE TURN SIGNALS ARE INTERMITTENT. I AM NOT THE ONLY IMPALA OWNER TO EXPERIENCE THIS PROBLEM. THIS APPEAR TO BE A WIDE SPREAD DEFECT WITH THE IMPALAS. THIS PROBLEM IS SIMILAR TO THE FOLLOWING EXISTING VEHICLE RECALL FOR THE 2000 CHEVROLET MALIBU... CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 03V327000 DATE: 2003-AUG-28 . WHY WAS THIS CONSIDERED A GREAT ENOUGH SAFETY HAZARD TO WARRANT A RECALL ON THE MALIBU BUT NOT ON THE IMPALA. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS IS A SERIOUS HAZARD AND NEEDS TO BE RECALLED. *TR MODEL YEAR 2000 MAKE: CHEVY MODEL: IMPALA ENG: 3.4 V6

JUST RECENTLY MY 2000 IMPALA BEGAN TO GIVE ME PROBLEMS WHEN I USED MY BLINKERS. IT FIRST BEGAN WHEN I JUST USED THE LEFT TURN SIGNAL, ALL OF MY WARNING LIGHTS ON THE CLUSTER CAME ON AND THE ALARM SOUND OF THE KEY BEING LEFT IN THE IGNITION WHEN THE SWITCH WOULD BE OFF, YET THE ENGINE WOULD BE RUNNING. LATER IT BEGAN TO STALL THE ENGINE. THEN LATER IT BEGAN DOING ALL OF THIS USING EITHER TURN SIGNAL. I HAVE BOUGHT EACH AND REPLACED THEM EVEN TO REPLACING THE CLUSTER AS NO ONE HAS BEEN ABLE TO FIND WHAT IS CAUSING ALL OF THIS. I COULD REALLY USE SOME HELP IN GETTING TO ROOT OF THIS PROBLEM. I AM A GREAT-GRANDMOTHER AND AM SCARED TO RIDE THEM IN MY CAR. THIS HAS NOW BEGAN HAPPENING EVERY TIME I USE THE TURN SIGNAL. GOOD THING I LEARNED THE HAND SIGNALS. I HAVE BEEN A FAITHFUL CHEVROLET PERSON, I WOULD REALLY HATE TO HAVE TO GO TO ANOTHER MAKE. *TR

HEADLIGHTS ON THIS VEHICLE GO OUT WITH OUT WARNING, AND UNABLE TO CONTROL THE HEADLIGHT BRIGHT AND DIM FUNCTION WITH THE STEERING COLUMN CONTROL LEVER. THIS IS A VERY UNSAFE CONDITION WHEN TRAVELING AT NIGHT AND AN INTERNET SEARCH PULLS UP NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL CAR IN THE 2000-2004 RANGE. WHAT IS THE STATUS OF THE INVESTIGATION FOR THIS PROBLEM AS REPORTED IN MAY 2006? *TR

I BOUGHT A 00 IMPALA 2 MONTHS AGO AND WAS DRIVING I RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC FROM MY HEART DOCTORS OFFICE WELL A SEMI ALMOST HIT ME FROM BEHIND BECAUSE MY TURN SIGNALS STOPPED WORKING . THEN I KEPT PUSHING THE HAZARD SWITCH FINALLY THEY CAME BACK ON. WELL A COUPLE OF DAYS AGO I WENT TO GET SOME MEDICINE AND ALMOST GOT HIT AGAIN. WELL THE TURN SIGNALS STOPPED AGAIN. I HAVE CALLED AND WROTE EMAILS TO GM AND NO BODY WILL GET A HOLD OF ME ON THIS. THEY HAVE RECALLED THE MALIBUS I HAVE FOUND OUT FOR THIS PROBLEM WELL WHY NOT THE IMPALAS??? I HAVE EVEN CHECKED WITH AN ATTORNEY AND HE TOLD ME I SHOULD DO LEGAL ACTION AGAINST THEM SINCE THIS IS A SAFETY PROBLEM. WELL HE WANTS MONEY UP FRONT WELL I USED MY MONEY TO BUY THE CAR. SO IM ASKING WHY AND HOW CAN WE ALL GET TOGETHER AND FORCE GM TO RECALL AND FIX THIS PROBLEM?????I HAVE OTHER PROBLEMS BUT IM FINE WITH THEM ,I JUST WANT TO GET MY TURN SIGNALS FIXED, AND NOT AT MY EXPENSE. *TR

NO EVENTS LEADING UP TO THE FAILURE. HAZARD LIGHTS SOMETIMES STOP WORKING ALONG WITH THE TURN SIGNALS PRESSING THE HAZARD LIGHT SWITCH WILL SOMETIMES CORRECT THE ISSUE. *TR

MY ENTIRE TURN SIGNAL FUNCTION TOTALLY STOPPED WORKING - NO BLINKING ON DASH OR OUTSIDE OF CAR. *TR

THE TURN SIGNALS DO NOT WORK. THEY CUT OUT ON YOU AT THE FEW TIMES THAT THEY COME ON. THIS IS DANGEROUS. *TR

LOW BEAM LIGHTS WENT OUT. AFTER READING OTHER COMPLAINTS FROM THIS WEBSITE HTTP://WWW.CARSMART.COM/CONTENT/RESEARCH/FORUMS/INDEX.CFM/ACTION/POSTS/FID/136 I DECIDED THAT SOMETHING SHOULD BE DONE AT GM IN LINE OF A RECALL. THIS CAN CAUSE AN ACCIDENT WHEN YOU ALL OF A SUDDEN DON"T HAVE ANY LIGHTS. AND IF YOU DRIVE WITH YOUR HIGH BEAMS ON YOU CAN BLIND ONCOMING DRIVERS. MY CAR IS A 2000 CHEVROLET IMPALA. *TR

VEHICLES TURN SIGNALS STOP WORKING INTERMITTENTLY AND SOMETIMES WILL NOT ALLOW THE HAZARD LIGHTS TO WORK. THIS POSES A SERIOUS SAFETY RISK - I WAS STOPPED IN A DARK UNLIT AREA WHEN MY VEHICLE BROKE DOWN AND VEHICLES WERE UNABLE TO SEE MY CAR OR MYSELF. *TR

I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING FREQUENT (EVERY DAY) TURN SIGNAL FAILURES WITH MY 2000 IMPALA LS. MY IMPALA HAS THE 3.8 LITER MOTOR AND 94,000 MILES. THE HAZARD SWITCH SEEMS TO BE THE REASON FOR THE FAILURE. I HAVE LOOKED AT SEVERAL ONLINE "AUTO HELP FORUMS" AND THIS PROBLEM IS AN EPIDEMIC AROUND THE NATION. GM HAS RECALLED MALIBU MODELS FOR THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM BUT NOT IMPALAS. THE SWITCH IS A $50 PART BUT GM WANTS $300-$400 TO REPLACE IT. IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD THAT GM IS AWARE OF. PLEASE FORCE THEIR HAND IN THIS SAFETY MATTER. THANK YOU. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 CHEVROLET IMPALA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE TURN SIGNAL DOES NOT OPERATE PROPERLY IN RAINY CONDITIONS. THE FAILURE WAS NOTICED WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH. THE DEALER ADVISED HIM TO ACTIVATE THE HAZARD LIGHTS EACH TIME THE FAILURE OCCURS. THE CURRENT MILEAGE IS 140,000 AND FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,000.

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 CHEVROLET IMPALA. THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE PLASTIC COVERS ON THE HEADLIGHTS HAD BECOME FROSTED AND YELLOW IN COLOR. THE DEALER STATED THAT HE WOULD HAVE TO BUY NEW HEADLIGHT COVERS. THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF FAILURE. THE CURRENT MILEAGE IS 143,000 AND FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 37,000.

TURN SIGNALS DO NOT WORK ALL THE TIME. *JB

DT*: THE CONTACT STATED THE VEHICLE'S TURN SIGNAL INTERMITTENTLY DID NOT WORK WHILE TRYING TO SIGNAL IN ANY DIRECTION. ALSO THE HAZARD LIGHTS FAILED TO ILLUMINATE, WHEN THE HAZARD LIGHTS BUTTON WAS DEPRESSED. THE DEALER WAS CONTACTED, AND DETERMINED THAT THE CONTACT MAY NEED TO REPLACE THE TURN SIGNAL. THE CONTACT FOUND MANY OTHER CONSUMERS WITH THE SAME MODEL WHO HAD THIS SAME PROBLEM. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED.

TURN SIGNALS FAIL TO OPERATE WHEN LEVER IS MOVED OR STOP WORKING WHEN ACTIVATED. THE ONLY WAY TO RECOVER FROM PROBLEM IS TO PRESS THE HAZARD SWITCH. THEN THE SIGNALS OPERATE CORRECTLY. INTERMITTENT PROBLEM THAT OCCURS ABOUT ONCE A WEEK. DEALER SAID THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO EVEN THOUGH THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS VERY PROBLEM ON MALIBU AND PONTIAC CARS. *JB

TURN SIGNALS ONLY WORKING INTERMITTENTLY - MECHANIC UNABLE TO DUPLICATE PROBLEM ON TEST DRIVES. THIS IS DEFINITELY AN UNSAFE CONDITION ON THRUWAY AND EXPRESSWAY DRIVING WHERE LANE CHANGING AND USE OF SIGNALS ARE NEEDED TO USE OFF AND ON RAMPS. I HAVE DONE ENOUGH RESEARCH AND SEEN ENOUGH REPORTS OF THIS SAME ISSUE WITH BOTH THE IMPALA AND THE MALIBU TO BE QUITE SURE THERE IS A DEFECT IN THE MANNER IN WHICH THIS EQUIPMENT WAS MANUFACTURED OR ASSEMBLED. I AM REQUESTING A RECALL BE ISSUED TO CORRECT WHAT APPEARS TO BE A GREAT NUMBER OF VEHICLES ON THE ROAD WITH THIS SAME UNSAFE CONDITION BEFORE IT RESULTS IN A FATALITY. *JB

TURN SIGNALS FUNCTIONALITY INTERMITTENTLY FAILS. MY AUTOMOBILE TURN SIGNALS FAILURE RATE IS AN ESTIMATED 20 PERCENT. I DRIVE MY VEHICLE NEVER KNOWING WHEN THE OPERATION OF THE TURN SIGNALS WILL FAIL. THIS IS A HAZARD TO MYSELF AS WELL AS TO OTHERS. I HAVE READ OTHER 2000 IMPALA OWNERS COMPLAINTS CONCERNING THIS SAME ISSUE ON WWW.CARCOMPLAINTS.COM. I HAVE DISCUSSED THIS PROBLEM WITH A CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP. THEY CLAIMED THAT NO RECALLS OR SERVICE BULLETINS EXISTED CONCERNING THE TURN SIGNALS INTERMITTENT FAILURE. I HAVE TRIED TO DETERMINE WHAT WAS CAUSING THIS PROBLEM. OBVIOUSLY, IT ISN'T A BLOWN FUSE. IS IT A ELECTRICAL CONNECTION, A MALFUNCTION OF A ELECTRICAL SWITCH OR THE TURN SIGNAL UNIT? *NM

CAR HAS 54,000 MILES WITH LIMITED NIGHTTIME USE. HAD TO REPLACE RIGHT HEADLIGHT MOTOR. 100 MILES LATER THE LEFT HEADLIGHT IS NOT WORKING CORRECTLY AND WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED. *JB

DT: THE CONTACT COMPLAINED ABOUT AN EXTERIOR LIGHTING PROBLEM. THE TURN SIGNALS WILL WORK INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO DEALERSHIP, BUT THEY WERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. *AK

TURN SIGNAL FLASHER FAILURE. *JB

DT: 2000 CHEVROLET IMPALA - THE TURN SIGNALS AND HAZARD LIGHTS WORK INTERMITTENTLY. THE TURN SIGNALS WILL WORK FOR A FEW SECONDS AT NORMAL SPEED AND THEN THEY JUST STOP WORKING. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE PURCHASING THE CAR ABOUT A YEAR AGO. TOOK VEHICLE TO A MECHANIC AND HE COULD NOT FIND THE REASON WHY THIS WAS HAPPENING. CONSUMER HAS NOT CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP OR MANUFACTURER. CONSUMER DID RESEARCH AND FOUND NO RECALL ON THIS VEHICLE, BUT THERE WERECOMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS SAME PROBLEM. *AK

TURN SIGNAL NOT WORKING RIGHT SOMETIME THEY WORK AND SOMETIME THEY DON'T. *NM

DT: 2000 CHEVROLET IMPALA. THE TURN SIGNAL WILL NOT WORK, IT WILL BE ON AND IT WILL SHUT OFF. CONSUMER REPLACED THE FUSE AND THE FLASHER UNIT. THEY ONLY WORK WITH THE HAZARD LIGHTS ON OR IF THE VEHICLE IS OFF. THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP TO BE INSPECTED. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE JANUARY.*AK

TURN SIGNALS WILL NOT WORK MOST OF THE TIME. IF YOU TURN THE HAZARD FLASHERS ON FOR A MINUTE THEN TURN THEM OFF THE TURN SIGNALS WILL WORK FOR A LITTLE WHILE. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY PROBLEM. *NM

EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS IN MY 2000 CHEVROLET IMPALA SIMILAR TO THE FOLLOWING EXISTING VEHICLE RECALL FOR THE 2000 CHEVROLET MALIBU... CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 03V327000 DATE: 2003-AUG-28. *JB COMPONENT: EXTERIOR LIGHTING: HAZARD FLASHING WARNING LIGHTS: SWITCH DEFECT SUMMARY: CERTAIN PASSENGER VEHICLES HAVE HAZARD WARNING SWITCHES THAT MAY EXPERIENCE SOLDER JOINT CRACKING CAUSED BY RAPID TEMPERATURE TRANSITIONS AND THE SOLDERING PROCESS. IF SOLDER JOINT CRACKING OCCURS AND RESULTS IN AN OPEN CIRCUIT, THE TURN SIGNALS/HAZARD LAMPS BECOME INTERMITTENT OR INOPERATIVE. CONSEQUENCE SUMMARY: WHEN THE TURN SIGNALS ARE INOPERATIVE, THE DRIVER CANNOT USE THEM TO SIGNAL INTENT TO TURN THAT COULD RESULT IN A CRASH. ...THE RESULT IS INTERMITTENT AND UNPREDICTABLE LOSS OF TURN SIGNAL OPERATION WHILE DRIVING. THIS HAS LED TO INABILITY TO SIGNAL INTENT OF DRIVER DURING A TURN, LANE CHANGE, ETC. AND COULD POTENTIALLY RESULT IN A VEHICLE CRASH.*JB

THE TURNS SIGNAL AND BRAKE LIGHT FAILED INTERMITTENTLY. DEALER STATED TURN SIGNAL AND FOUR WAY FLASHERS NEED TO BE REPLACED . *AK

I OWN A 2000 IMPALA. FROM TIME TO TIME, THE TURN SIGNALS WILL STOP BLINKING OR WILL NOT BLINK AT ALL. IF I TURN THE EMERGENCY FLASHERS ON AND OFF, THEY WILL RESUME BLINKING.*AK I KNOW OF A MALIBU WITH THIS SAME PROBLEM. WHEN I MENTIONED THIS TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICHLE, THEY KNEW WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS BUT SAID THERE WERE ONLY RECALLS ON TWO MODELS AND MINE WAS NOT ONE OF THEM. THIS HAS NOT CAUSED AN ACCIDENT BUT I THINK IT IS A SAFETY PROBLEM.

TURN SIGNALS WORK INTERMITTENLY.*MR

I HAVE A 2000 CHEVY IMPALA LS. THE DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS CAN'T BE TURNED OFF. I NEED THIS VEHICLE FOR MY WORK AS I AM A CONTRACT EMPLOYEE WORKING FOR THE UNITED STATES POSTAL INSPECTORS. I DO WORKMENS COMP INVESTIGATIONS AND MY MAIN JOB IS SURVEILLANCE WITH MY VEHICLE. THESE DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS GIVE ME AWAY IN A SURVEILLANCE MODE. I HAVE TALKED TO MY CHEVY DEALER, VAN CHEVROLET OF SCOTTSDALE AZ. WHO STATE THAT THEY CAN DISCONNECT THESE RUNNING LIGHTS WITH A PART AND THEY DO IT ALL THE TIME FOR THE LOCAL POLICE DEPT.
