if your car is kept overnight, the warranty covers a rental. GM covered my rental for 2.5 weeks when the tail lamp leak issue was resolved.

It been a very long time since I posted here.

I bought a brand new 2020 Impala Premier back in June. The A/C stopped working the next day (very hard to believe I know). Took it back to the dealership and they were shocked and confused but looked at it anyway.

They couldn't find a leak so they refilled the system but this time put dye in it just in case it leaks out again.

Well, a week later it stopped working.

Took it back to them and they found a leak at one of the hoses.

They replaced the hose, refilled the system (again) and sent me on my way.

A week later AGAIN it went out.

This was about 5 weeks ago and I haven't been back to the dealer to see what the issue is.

I did some research and I am wondering if this is a known problem with these cars. I read somewhere that it could be an issue that can only be fixed by removing the dash board which is why I haven't been back to the dealer. It's covered under warranty obviously but I know that is not an overnight fix and I don't want to be without my ride for that long.

Anyone know what the issue might be? Anyone else have this problem with these 10th gen Impala's? I'm a bit bummed out by this and kinda wish I went with a different car now. Don't get me wrong the Impala is an awesome car but for the A/C to be an issue is making me feel some type of way.

Since it's getting cooler out the AC isn't much of a priority but I'd still like to know what the issue might be. I appreciate any help!

I have a 2014 Impala 2LTZ - purchased new. The a/c still works and operates well.

I would research the ”lemon law” in your state, and proceed with a replacement vehicle or repurchase (refund). You may want to contact an attorney. Good luck.

 

You need your AC system to be working in cold weather also, for the defogger to function.

 

Have they mentioned the evaporator?

My 2015 2LT's A/C is still going strong. Never had issues.

 

I encountered problems w my ac but it was self induced. Still this advice may be worth checking into. There’s a device on either the pos or neg wire near the battery. If a ground loop or lack of power being read by this device it will shut off ac then other nonessential systems in its effort to save the battery.

 

I have a 2018 Impala Premier that last year AC just stopped blowing cold air..took it to the dealer they found a leak in the condenser which its somewhere below the radio and its a 15 hour job and yes half the dash has to come out..i got my car back in about week..they gave me a loaner mean while

 

^ Fwiw, the condenser is in front of the radiator. The location/component you're describing is the evaporator.

I rented a 2020 impala and the AC blows nothing but hot air unbelievable that’s such a new car can have problems so early with the AC.

 

I’ve had two 2019 impalas ac stop working randomly. Was quoted $1600 to fix it, currently sweating my ass off bc just got out of warwnty:/

 

Try disconnecting the battery for 5 minutes. Worked for me (2019 3.6).

 

Evaporators seem to be a common problem with the newer impalas ...l think they made them out of recycled Fords and Dodges...Take it in make them fix it..They should be getting quicker doing them as so many have faulty evaporators

 

I've had 2014 for about 8 years now and just recently i moved to Texas and my car started having all kinds of issues. my AC was one of them. it just wasn't getting cold at all, so I took it to a shop to check the refrigerant and low and behold it was empty. they recharged it with the correct amount, and it was working fine when I left the shop but a couple of days later it started acting odd. sometimes ill start the car and it will be warm and never get cold, other times it will take really long to get cold and other times it only gets cold when i really really step on the gas and raise the RPMs up during highway speeds.

Then it will do the exact opposite, it will start up cold and as soon as I get on the highway that i hit highway speeds and i gun it, it will lose its cold and stay warm.

I haven't checked it for any dye leaks but i would hate to think that evaporator core is the issue. I've also noticed that the condensation leak under the car is not as much as it use to be when it was working with no issues at all. I would hate to have to take out my dashboard to replace my evaporator core

 

APP signal may be out of range as it's part of system ECM checks for AC operation
Wide open AC shuts down.
Air gap on clutch..clutch face gap between .014 and .024 any more re- shim or replace

 

Thank you very much for that information. is it normal operation for the AC to shut down at WOT? I will try to verify APP Signal as soon as I get a chance with a DMM.
