signals, parts that may not have been welded together properly, and a loss of
power steering. The 2014 Chevrolet Impala, for instance, was
identified in February as having a defective transmission shift cable adjuster,
which could cause the car to roll away after the vehicle was parked. In June,
it was recalled again because the ignition could shut off while the car was in
motion, cutting power to the engine and causing the air bags to fail. G.M.
