Overview & Reviews

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.

  retired - 2004 Chevrolet Impala
  By mike12 - December 3 - 2:00 am

  Hi guys after owning chevs since 1970 i naturally chose one to start into my retirement with .Can say i am happy with the overall performance, but not to happy with the ride the tires give i find they are hard riding and noisy the dealer agreed and is trying to work something out with G.M. other than that the only thing i find wrong is the back seats are a little hard for long drives. sure would be nice if they came back with the 5.7 eng . I will look closer next time i buy a new car .Hope everyone has a great yr.

  Road Sense - 2004 Chevrolet Impala
  By tom c. mc loughn - December 3 - 2:00 am

  The best thing about this car is its ability to allow me to relate to road conditions. On a rain soaked highway this car feels very stable and drives that way . In snow and ice the traction control takes over and once again the stability feel is there . I call it road sense. My experience with higher priced cars that lack that road sense (Acura) give me an uncomfortable insecure feeling.

  Great all around car - 2004 Chevrolet Impala
  By Kevin R - October 1 - 11:22 am

  Love the fuel economy, and quality of leather seats. Only thing I dont like is the front seats are not real comfortable on long trips. Need more lumbar support. Only thing replaced in 100,000 miles are the front wheel bearings.

  Time for a new car - 2004 Chevrolet Impala
  By 04 Imp - July 24 - 8:29 pm

  Bought this car from my father-in law so the price was right. At 40000 miles I had to replace the water pump. The transmission slams hard between 2nd and third. Steering makes an awful sound (poor lubrication of the intermediate shaft). Trunk freezes shut in the winter and with no handle is almost impossible to open. The security system (passlock) has malfunctioned a few times meaning the car wouldnt start. Brakes warp prematurely. On the up side, the car is comfy and rides well, but steering is vague. Decent power and fuel economy. This was one of Chevys better cars, and shows why GM is struggling. I have owned a few cheaper imports which have been bullet proof. Time to sell!

  great car - 2004 Chevrolet Impala
  By grafton - March 29 - 10:00 am

  I like the car, I was not happy that at only a year old (it is a 2002, and it had 42 thousand miles on it already. It runs great. It tells you when you need an oil change, washer fluid, all that. It runs great and very quiet!

  Mostly Happy - 2004 Chevrolet Impala
  By susan - February 17 - 9:12 pm

  Bought the car late 2003. Still have it and am now at 108,000 miles. Replaced the temp gauge at 80,000 miles, brakes at 87,000 miles and had no other major problems until 106,000 miles and then the biggie: Transmission went bad. Had to be rebuilt ($2,000). After that bummer, I have resummed my love for the car. Rides smooth, love the interior room. Not the easiest to handle on curves, but this car will fly! Lots of power, with a hint of a luxury feel. Great for road trips. Could be more sound proof inside, but overall well-built car. Would probably buy another.

  Still in love after 3+ years - 2004 Chevrolet Impala
  By OwenW - December 17 - 9:24 pm

  Purchased my Impala Oct 04 and it ranks as my best purchase ever. More than 42 years of driving & owning 11 previous cars + 4 or 5 company vehicles. Key points: Fuel economy is outstanding. Who needs econo-boxes? On cruise control at 55 = 35+ MPG all day long. At 60 it gets 31 MPG. Maintenance: This cars been trouble- free for nearly 56,000 miles. A defective dashboard display was replaced at dealers request and under warrenty early in 2007. Im on 2nd set of tires and brakes (49K miles). The cars a hoot to drive and the kids in the little imports cant believe the way my Impala handles and outperforms much smaller cars. Im sold!
