A flashing check engine light on your 2013 Chevrolet Impala signals an active misfire or another condition that may damage the catalytic converter if driven.

We’ll explain the findings, outline OEM repair options, and show how prompt repair reduces fuel waste and prevents costly downstream failures.

To help manage cost, check our service specials and take advantage of service financing so you can fix problems now and pay over time.
