    Hm. That is strange. Are you talking about the actual shift selector? And is the impala shifter on the floor or the dash?

    Only thing that comes to my mind is the casing on the shift cable is plastic which would heat up and "loosen" on the cable? Might be because it's old. Idk, that's a strange one

    might need to lube the shiftier in the console. or its grease is cold and thick making it harder to move.

    The Shifter is On the Floor. I’m going to take it to a local shop and see what’s could be causing it Thanks For the reply

    Another thing this could be. Floor shifters are also cables and routed up through the firewall. Sometimes when an air filter is changed the cable routing gets moved and that can cause some tension on it.

    Pop the hood.. post a couple of pictures of the routing.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.
