#10 of 17 2003 impala outer door handle by mark_1078

May 03, 2007 (2:52 pm)

Hi I own a 2003 Impala LS. My passenger side rear outer door handle just snapped off on one side. I was wondering if anyone else has dealt with this and how difficult it is to change? Ive taken the door panel off but have not removed the door handle as I am awaiting the part to arrive. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I have a broken "clip" for my driver side visor... which is quite annoying because the visor doesn't lock into place, just flops around.
 
Anyone know what the part is actually cost, part # and where I can get one? I've checked a couple GM parts delaers but none have it.

Ummm...hmmm...this is an embarrassing question. I've got a used Impala LS and the trunk light has never worked. I've put of fixing it for months but now that its getting darker earlier its becoming a nuisance. This afternoon I went into the trunk to look at what kind of bulb I needed and I couldn't find it!! Where is it located??
 
I did notice there's a small wire hanging down from the top of the trunk where one would expect the light to be - maybe its missing??

the weatherstrips on the doors of the 2006-2007 impalas are scratching the paint off the body where the door closes on to it. due to the texture of the weatherstrips on all four doors. please contact gm customer assistance to complain about this issue so they will get a fix for this big problem. i am a dealer employee and they said they need more complaints to consider this a real problem. CALL 1-800-222-1020 TO COMPLAIN OF THIS SOON OR YOUR CAR WILL BEGIN TO RUST AROUND THE DOORS

I have complained about this to the dealer, GM district manager and the GM 800 customer service line. I'm told it is normal and that all cars do this, but I continue to get more red paint on the weather stripping. AND, the weather stripping is so rigid, it is cracking. I started noticing it within 2-3 months of owning the car. I'm at a year now and after numerous complaints, they will do nothing.

#16 of 17 Rattling Sunroof Shade, '06 Impala SS by quietpro

Is anyone else out there having an issue with the sliding shade of their sunroof rattling? Mine has started this problem within the last couple of months. It's not a terribly loud noise but it is constant (as long as the car is moving) and definitely annoying. As it began, I could stop it by just sliding the shade open and closed. However, now it rattles no matter what I do...other than leaving it open.
 
Any thoughts?

Ron, I chuckled as I read your comment. I then read it to my wife, and she chuckled also. You have perfectly described the situation she has with her 2007 Grand Prix. We, too, have not been able to find a cure. I haven't taken it to the dealer--yet. If the annoyance continues into warm spring and summer weather, then I will have to consider it. It's interesting that what appears to be an identical problem would occur in both the Impala and the Grand Prix. Clark
