Impala While undergoing many facelifts in its history, the Impala has proved itself to both civilians and police forces as one of the most capable 4-door cars GM has ever offered. Currently moving towards its 10th generation the Impala is one of the longest lasting and popular models.

Please let me know if you have any further questions.

This information is for pre-2014 Impalas. The 2014 has a completely redesigned DIC and you have to select with a check mark which items will appear in the INFO display as others have said.

Default Trip B Has Been Found!

Thanks all of you for helping me find the elusive Trip B odometer in my Info Settings. The manual made more sense to me once I found the proper section. Thanks again for all of your help!

No trunk issues either with force to close or fob. I was used to an SUV so it took me a couple of times to get used to the trunk closing versus a heavy liftgate but that was me, not the car.

The time it opened prior to a rain storm (without my knowing it had opened) was not a fun clean up. The dealer cannot find the problem, of course.
Update!
My trunk has spontaneously opened three more times:
11/8/13 -- sometime in the a.m.; in my driveway; Neither key fob had been touched that day.
11/10/13 -- ~1 p.m. ; in my driveway; Neither key fob had been touched that day, but OnStar had accessed the car at 10:39 a.m for its monthly checkup.
11/24/13 -- between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m.; at church; my key fob was in my pocket, wife's was in a pocket in her purse.

Also....Erica Tiffany asked me to PM her with info (post #7 in this thread). I did so, but have not heard from her.


Grrr!

Does this happen anywhere except your driveway or church? If not, that's a big hint for troubleshooting.

Default Keyless Remote Problems.

I have owned my 2014 Impala for about 6 weeks. I have found the trunk open more than a dozen times. Also, sometimes I find the car unlocked when I am sure I locked it. I believe the problems are caused by the buttons on the keyless remote being depressed while the remote is in my pocket. They are not recessed nearly as much as the buttons on my Traverse remote which never gives me trouble. The manual says you have to press and hold the trunk release button for it to work, but a simple quick press will set it off. I consider this a serious problem. It will only take one hard rainstorm with the trunk open to seriously damage my trunk, not to mention theft issues. I have started setting the valet system when I know bad weather is coming, but my wife never does this. The keyless remote needs to be redesigned on this vehicle.

Hi

I test drove the impala 2014 the other day, ... liked almost everything about it, ... that steering though ... its extra sensitive to the point that makes you feel its loss :/ and it (the steering wheel) doesn't stay where it is even when driving straight it keeps on rotating with the lightest force? whats the deal with this super electric power steer? is it normal for Chevys ? or its just the car I drove? I have drove many non-american cars before, and the steering is very different in the impala, is it a new feature or the steering wheel in the car I drove was busted? can the sensitivity be adjusted?

would love to hear from the owners

The keyfob can be reprogrammed for a long trunk release press.
