2009 impact heater not working on idle.

I have a 2009 Impala that has a heater problem when the car is started using the remote start and while the car is on idle? The heater blows cold air until the car is driven? Any ideas?

Check the coolant level in the radiator?

You may have a stuck open thermostat ? I had a similar situation last winter with my Impala .

Engine needs to warm up before any heat will come out of the vents.

#1 its an 8 year old thread.

#2 I bet it was auto correct to the rescue. I think Impact is supposed to be Impala.
