2001 CHEVROLET IMPALA — Complaint #771252
Open-data reference.
NHTSA Complaint about EQUIPMENT:RECREATIONAL VEHICLE/TRAILER:LPG SYSTEMS:LINES AND FITTINGS filed March 7, 2010
NHTSA complaint #771252 (ODI reference 10317503) concerns a 2001 CHEVROLET IMPALA and was filed on March 7, 2010. The owner reports the failure occurred on March 1, 2010. The vehicle had 146,705 miles on the odometer at the time of the incident. The report was geocoded to Alabama based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as equipment:recreational vehicle/trailer:lpg systems:lines and fittings, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.
The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. Because a VIN was supplied, this complaint is tied to a specific vehicle and not just a model-year cohort.
Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same CHEVROLET IMPALA cohort independently describe similar equipment:recreational vehicle/trailer:lpg systems:lines and fittings failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data. Related filings for the same vehicle and component appear below, and the detail page for the full 2001 CHEVROLET IMPALA shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.
