This car is equiped with remote start. When the vehicle is up to temp acording to the gauge it only blow cold air at idle speed. When the vehicle is being driven or if you depress the accelorator it will blow warm air but not like it should. I can only assume that it is a switch or sensore of some kind. Can anyone help me?
Impalas are known for this issue, where the heating won't work properly.... usually caused by trapped air/bubbles in cooling system or slightly low coolant level. Park car so that the right front side is elevated and remove the coolant OVERFLOW bottle cap (NEVER the radiator cap) while engine is running.. This should allow the trapped air to escape. Also add a bit more coolant if needed.

I have an 06 impala and the tunk won't open. It is electronic (no way to key it open) I push the trunk release button in the car and nothing, I push the trunk release button on my key fob and nothing. I do not have fold down seats...HELP!
you have a fuse for it ,check the fuse box ,it might not say trunk on fuse panel, you might need to pull those fuses out one by one checking each one to see if blown, if the center between the two sides are broke the fuse is blown, hope this helps you, thanks robert b.

chevy impala engine hot a/c off light just came on
YOUR ACTION IS REQUIRED:
If the engine is not really overheating and not low of coolant.
IF IT IS DO NOT CONTINUE TO RUN THIS VEHICLE.
RECOMENDATIONS: Sight unseen.
Replace the temperature sensor.
The Failed temperature sensor has a zero reading for the Control board, without this reading the car starts running in limp home mode or Default and assumes the engine is running hot, first thing to go is your comfort... The AC.
In addition starts the engine cooling fan to running full time.
Hope this tip helps.

we changed the sensor and still get the same reading. car was involved in front end collision. not the sensor, already ruled that out. outside temp is really like 80deg and the ac won't work if the car thinks it's freezing outside
If you replaced the right sensor, there must be a problem in the wiring to the computer.
You did reset the computer - hit ac and recirculate buttons at the same time ??

where is the lever to fold down the seats
First fold down the rear head restraints by pressing the button on the side of the head restraint. Now you can fold your seat down in either of these two ways:
1. Pull the button on the top of the seat to unlock it from its position; you will notice a raised tab when the seat is unlocked
2. Depending on the type of seat you have, you can lower it by pulling a lever on the right side of the rear cargo area.
Remember, the seat belts should not be fastened when you attempt to lower the seat.

The remote start does not work. We replaced the battery in the fob bur it still does not work.
Did you reprogram the remotes if so there is a modual in the car that could have gone bad this seem to be a common problem on impalas for some reason not sure why
