The supercharged Impala SS joins the lineup for 2004. Besides offering 240 horsepower, the SS features a tightened suspension to allow it to take corners with a bit more gusto. Base and LS models have redesigned bench and bucket seats, and a sport appearance package is now available on the base sedan.

• Six-passenger seating availability, good crash test scores, torquey V6 engines.

• Vague steering, soggy suspension on base and LS models, low-buck interior.

  Just a nightmare - 2004 Chevrolet Impala
  By krzykowski - February 4 - 9:14 pm

  Where do I start? Bought it with 28K miles in 2006, and sold it for junk last week. Passlock problems, oil in the coolant, gauges that are all over the map. People who seem to know what theyre talking about say the 3.4 engine is the problem...that the other engines are fine. But before dying, my children referred to this car as the Adventuremobile because more often than not a trip in the Impala was an adventure. Stay away from the 3.4 engine!

  Never Again - 2004 Chevrolet Impala
  By AmberE - January 4 - 1:51 pm

  I am amazed to see how many people on here are having the same problems as I am and there arent any recalls. I too have had issues with a clunky front end, my abs light coming on at random, and kicking in at random, my traction control light comes on and kicks in also, I now have to turn it off before I start driving because it was kicking in at dangerous times. I have replaced my speedometer. The lights on my rear view mirror work at some moments and not at others. The car is comfy but the pros will never outweigh the cons in this car. I am now considering a Honda or Hyundai or something foreign. I will never buy an impala again. Horrible!

  Time to fix the Impala again : ( - 2004 Chevrolet Impala
  By dloc - April 5 - 10:35 am

  The Chevrolet Impala, Hmm hmm hmm. Where do I start. The exterior design is boring to say the least. The interior design even more boring. The heater/AC vents have all broken on my car (Thanks GM for really putting some effort into designing this car) I bought this car used in 2007. Right after I bought it the AC broke and the water pump went out. About $500 in repairs. What else is wrong with this car that shouldnt be: The cigarette lighter went out, the rear defroster went out, the back right window stopped rolling up, I had to replace the front wheel bearing assembly. Ohh and now it makes a loud annoying squeaking sound coming straight from the serpentine belt.

  Not happy - 2004 Chevrolet Impala
  By impala - November 30 - 6:05 pm

  Bought car in Jan of 04 . I have owned Chevys for about 40 yrs and was allways happy with them . However the 04 was noisy from the start. The dealer said it was the tires. They went to Goodyear this year. Changing the tires helped some but road noise is still bad .Windows fog up whenever it rains. I dont think I will be buying another Chevy any time soon. Find visibilty very poor
