On the 2014-2020 Chevrolet Impala, the 2014-2020 Impala uses an electric power steering system with a motor mounted on the steering column. The motor can fail, causing loss of power steering assist (steering becomes very heavy). The steering control module can also lose communication, triggering warnings. GM issued a recall for some model years.
Replace the electric power steering motor/column assembly. Remanufactured units available from Cardone. Recall coverage may apply - check with dealer.

On the 2006-2020 Chevrolet Impala, the power window regulators in the 2006-2020 Impala fail frequently, causing windows to fall into the door, move slowly, or stop working entirely. The cable-style regulator uses thin steel cables that fray and break, or the motor gears strip. The driver window is the most commonly affected due to highest usage. In cold weather, ice can bind the window in the channel and burn out the motor when the switch is pressed. Some owners report windows falling into the door with a loud clunk.
Replace the window regulator assembly ($60-$150 for parts) — always replace the regulator and motor as a unit since the motor is often damaged by a failed regulator. Labor is 1-2 hours per window ($100-$250). The door panel must be removed for access. Buy a quality aftermarket regulator (Dorman is widely available) or OEM ACDelco. In cold weather, never force a frozen window — use the defroster to warm the door seal before attempting to operate the window.

On the 2006-2020 Chevrolet Impala, the intermediate steering shaft on the 2006-2020 Impala develops a clunk or pop felt through the steering wheel when turning, especially at low speeds and when going over bumps. The intermediate shaft connects the steering column to the steering gear and uses a slip joint that loses its lubrication over time, causing a binding and releasing action that creates the clunk. The noise is most noticeable when turning while going over speed bumps or entering driveways. GM issued TSB 08-02-32-007 for this issue.
The intermediate shaft can be temporarily improved by injecting lithium grease into the slip joint through a small hole drilled in the shaft boot. The permanent fix is replacement of the intermediate steering shaft with the updated GM design ($150-$300 for parts, $100-$200 labor). The updated shaft has improved lubrication retention. Some owners apply grease every 6-12 months as a cheaper maintenance approach rather than full replacement.
