UNKNOWN OR OTHER
While driving my 2014 Chevrolet Impala Limited Police vehicle, VIN [XXX], the engine unexpectedly shut off. The check engine light illuminated and the vehicle subsequently would crank but would not start normally. A diagnostic scan produced code P069E, Fuel Pump Control Module Requested MIL Illumination. After the failure, the vehicle would crank without starting using the normal ignition. The vehicle was towed home. I attempted to start vehicle using the factory remote-start system. It started as normal with the remote-start system, but shut off after a few minutes. I am reporting this because an unexpected engine shutdown while the vehicle is in motion created a safety risk due to the sudden loss of engine power while driving. I found GM service information addressing P069E and fuel pump control-related conditions on 2014 Chevrolet Impala Limited vehicles, including GM bulletin PI1082. However, this VIN does not appear to be included in a recall or repair campaign for this condition. I am requesting that NHTSA document and evaluate this incident, including whether similar engine-stall, no-start, fuel pump control module, or P069E complaints have been reported for 2014 Chevrolet Impala Limited vehicles outside any previously identified vehicle population.

Additionally, the vehicle lost electrical power and stalled on several occasions. There was no warning light illuminated. While the vehicle was stationary, the vehicle frequently lost power. The contact stated that the battery terminals were disconnected and reconnected after the failure, and the vehicle operated for approximately 15 minutes before the vehicle stalled again.

SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
I have a 2014 Impala limited I started having problems within 6 months after I bought the vehicle from Bergstrom Chevrolet in Wisconsin it was involving the ABS anti-lock stability track and traction control and the braking and steering we're all feeling and locking up while I was driving it presented and problems and endangering my life and the life of any passengers in the vehicle the brakes will lock up and there was no warning before I locked up no lights came on and it would pull to the left or pull to the right depending on which ABS was locking up and it was fixed one time at the dealership then it was fixed again at the dealership later maybe about another 3 to 6 months after and went up for the same thing again and the parts were replaced now I again have had nothing but problems with the braking system. Also the valve that controls the pressure in the fuel tank malfunctioned which caused the car to run irrraticaly it would start hard,stop running at all stops rough ideling and unable to pump gas into the car without the gas pump stopping continuously making the time that it would take to fill the gas tank 3 to 4 times longer than it did that was fixed and it is malfunctioning again. I'm on my fourth time of having my car anti-lock brake system failing on my car multiple systems including the electrical system failing. The dash lights would go off on. The exterior lights going off and on. The car has been off of the streets and unable to be driven many times. I have taken my car in to the Dealership from where I purchased it from. By the third time my car warranty had expired. Then everything was still not repaired all the systems were not ever working correctly. And now the repairs were needed to be paid in full by myself. The cost to me had just begun when it should have been resolved. In excess of $6,000 was what it would cost me the third time I had the Impala in for everything and now it's gone out again and I'm having to get this repaired.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I previously owned a 2011 Buick Regal and now have a 2014 Chevy Impala. Both vehicles have had a Stabilitrack warning come up. Both vehicles experienced the same issue. The car seemed to jerk, lag in speed, cannot accelerate over 40mph. The Regal was diagnosed with an electrical/wiring issue. The Impala was diagnosed with a failed Transmission Control Module. We now have a 2016 Impala and the same issue and warning lights have appeared. That’s 3 vehicles we’ve owned from GMC with the exact same issue. This can’t be a coincidence and should be looked into. There are hundreds, if not thousands, of more consumers on forums experiencing the exact same issue. This should be recalled! Imagine the possibilities of danger this can cause when on the interstate and can’t accelerate over 40mph.

AIR BAGS
On 11/20/2024, the Chevrolet dealership diagnosed the problem as a short in the passenger presence sensor airbag module under the passenger seat. For more than a year, the airbag warning light has almost always been on. On just a few occasions in the past year or two, the airbag light has turned off, usually corresponding with a change in the humidity. I understand that there was a recall for this very same (moisture-related) airbag problem in other GM vehicles some years ago. I think we have the exact same problem here, and that my car should be included in the recall. Note well, this year there was an airbag recall covering a 2007 Nissan Versa, a much older car. It seems that airbag recalls can apply to cars 18 years old.
