The 2013 Chevrolet Impala LT is a moderately easy car to maintain, and a good choice for the experienced car owner. Accessing the transmission fluid level is no problem, as the dipstick is easily accessible in the engine bay. Other models do not include this dipstick. Both the engine and interior fuse boxes are easily accessible on this vehicle. You only have to remove one cover to access either set of fuses, allowing you to troubleshoot electrical problems easily. The components of the spare tire are easily accessible in the rear of the vehicle. This keeps the tire and jack kit ready to go with reliability.

Some things are tougher to maintain on the 2013 Chevrolet Impala LT. To access the tail lights, you will have to completely remove the bulb housing first. This requires many steps, which are that you remove fasteners and a lining. Other models make this access easier. You will have to remove a few bolts and fasteners in order to access the headlights on this vehicle. This would have been much easier if all you had to do was simply reach behind the housing. To remove the battery, you will have to reposition the sway bay first. An extra step you won’t have to complete on other models.
