The only advice anyone should give you is to call a licensed HVAC (Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning) technician to advise you further. From your description it sounds as if the the compressor motor's start and run capacitor and/or the motor's windings are burning-out and need to be replaced.

It may even make sense to replace the whole unit by a new one which will have a new warranty period.

For personal safety reasons only technicians who are licensed to work on HVAC (Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning) should do this kind of work because they have the right test equipment and tools and have been trained how to use them safely.

Repairing an ac unit is not a Do-It-Yourself job because refrigerant gas is very dangerous to handle: you could suffocate yourself or someone else in the room if you don't know what you are doing.

If a compressor for a impala goes on and off is the compressor bad?

All automotive air conditioner compressors work by going on and off. That is how they control the temperature. If they are mostly off, they make it warmer. If they are mostly on, they make it colder. The fact that it is on an Impala has nothing to do with it. The fact that it is an automobile air conditioner compressor has everything to do with it. Something would be wrong if it was not going on and off.
