Rolling down window at highway speed while top up just pops out back window. the service bulletin states that and insufficient amount of primer is used during the assembly process. This allows the material to separate from glass. Window just pops out. purchased car new november of 2018 with 50 miles on it. car is garage kept and has less then 17000 miles. i am on my 3rd top. Gm will not cover the serious and potentially dangerous problem. TOP right of passenger side window failed. driving with top up and window open will further seperate glass from top and blow out. car is not safe to drive with top up.
Was driving down the road and steering just went away, I also hit a mailbox
My Steering system failed while I was goin around a curve which caused me to run someone of the road which I had to pay for the damage to their car, and caused me to hit a mailbox, I had it towed to a mechanic shop which the mechanic told me about recalls on the Camaros and stated that steering failure was one of them. Police came and I explained and showed them how my steering failed, It wasn’t any warning lights until after the incident happened.
came upon stopped traffic on I15 freeway i pushed on my brakes and had none i had to run off of the road to avoid a rear end collision at 75 mph ,brakes were solid no movement of petal at all no matter how hard i pushed ,after i got my car back under control and came to a rolling stop a notice came on in my dash saying ...brake assist...nothing was assisting anything I HAD NO BRAKES !!! I had to have my car brought home by a towing company (2) states away from my home .had i not had a way to get off the road to avoid the stopped traffic it would have been a 75 mph rear end accident with very possibly and more than likely..... fatalities ....I HAVE SINCE FOUND OUT THIS IS A VERY COMMON FLAW WITH CAMAROS ,LOOK ON LINE AND READ THE FORUMS !!! I MY DAUGHTER AND MY 5 MONTH OLD GRANDSON RIDE IN THIS CAR DAILY ..ONE OF MY QUESTIONS IS ..IF IT WAS YOUR FAMILY WHAT WOULD YOU DO TO FIX THIS PROBLEM AND SAVE THEIR LIVES ....
Synchronizer problem shifting into 2nd gear. The car on occasion (hot or cold) has trouble shifting completely into 2nd gear. Happens under normal every day driving conditions or while trying to accelerate hard and shift into 2nd. Car feels like it went into gear, but when you release the clutch it grinds the teeth on the synchros due to not being fully in 2nd gear.
I began slowing down for a traffic light and experienced what felt like a car hitting me from behind. The problem is, "no one was behind me". A few days later I began noticing a distinctive shutter between 40 -70 Mph. under my seat, " It felt like I was going over rumble strips . I began researching this issue and learned that GM issued a Service Bulletin ( 18-NA-355 ), and the problem is a "known Issue". My question for my Senator is this "why wasn't a recall sent out"? Apparently a major car makers can get away with designing, building, and marketing a product with know problems which could lead to more serious issue. Since the issue deals with the power train, transmission safety, and the safety of the drivers , "How was GM permitted to simply issue a service bulletin? I followed the instructions and the dealership did not want to complete the work, "I had to write to GM and ask them to mandate the service on my vehicle. After the service my vehicle ran ok for a while, "but now I have strange shifting, slipping, clinking, and a violent jerk at times. How can the NTSB allow a vehicle with issues on the road? Again, this is a question for my Congressman and Senator.
My vehicle dies while going 60 MPH or at red lights, creating a dangerous situation in traffic or on the highway. At times when yielding it feels like I've been hit by another vehicle from behind, the transmission does not downshift normally, and the TSB (see attached) proves that General Motors knew about this issue and did not notify customers or recall the vehicle for repairs. I have 2 issues with my vehicle and both issues remain unresolved even after utilizing the power train warranty. My vehicle was taken to the dealership for repairs multiple times, the "check engine" light was on the vehicle, no one checked it, and General Motors did not honor its Power Train Warranty Obligations, "the defects remain unresolved". My vehicle is dangerous to operate, I have tried working with General Motors to arrive at a solution, "But I should not be forced pay additional expense for issues General Motors knew about a, issued TSB's warning dealerships, and made no effort to notify customers. I am reporting this issue to the NTSB before providing a 30 day Notice of Intent to sue, to General Motors
Purchased vehicle in 2018. I’m the only owner. At the 84,000 miles mark lost brake pedal pressure. Detected the problem while parking. Took the car to the dealership for repairs. The car is at the dealership now and the dealership so far has said it may be the vacuum pump. They said that they are confirming if this is the case.
When I place my car in park, I get a message on my display that says “shift to park”. Once that message comes on, I cannot turn my vehicle off and have to keep restarting my car until the message goes away, so it does not drain my battery completely. It happens every time I shift to park.
The car starts to shake violently at any speed and it does it all models whether it switches between V4 or V6 or V8 mode. I am taking it into the dealership on 10/01/21. I have found one 106 complaints on your site since Sept 21, 2021. The issue at hand is either a faulty torque converter and transmission. I have also found several hundred reports on the internet. And as of today GM has flushed the transmission only to have the problem happen again. I feel they know they have a costly issue at hand. I am more concerned about the safety factor and my family in the car and it decides to fail at highway speeds.

When driving it started shuttering like it was road problems but it kept on getting worse then it started shifting hard taking off like it is gonna stall in middle of the road or if you take off and know you have plenty of time before the other car gets to you and it hard shifts at that time before you can get it to go to get out of the way the car is upon you braking hard honking it has done that a few times on me it is scary I’m having it fixed today to find out my extended warranty I paid for with the dealer does not cover to fix this the warranty runs out at 60,000miles mine has 64,000 so now it is costing me 452.48 to fix this when there is so many complaints online same thing it should already be a recall not a law suit.
In the middle of driving, power steering shut off and a notification saying "Service Power Steering" popped up on the dashboard. There were no signs/issues/warnings prior to this happening. Restarting the car didn't fix the issue so the car was taken to the dealer to diagnose the issue, which turned out to be a faulty power steering gear. This exact piece was replaced in Aug 2019 under a recall (NHTSA campaign id: 19V086. GM recall id: N182182760). I believe the recall does not address the issue or I was given a faulty piece. The dealer replaced the part but at my expense. GM could not give me a reason for why I should be held responsible for a faulty piece even though they stated that the part that needed to be replace is a sealed part and the fault was an internal fault/short. I had no control over damaging the part and the dangers of sudden loss of power steering put me, my passengers, other drivers, and pedestrians at risk. Power was lost in the middle of a rain storm and I needed to drive over an hour with no power steering just to get back home. The difficulty to turn with no power steering was so difficult that I couldn't even parallel park/pull over in a safe manner. I understand parts fail but GM should be held accountable for the faulty parts or properly address the recall from years ago because the "solution" clearly didn't fix the problem.
The contact owns a 2017 Chevrolet Camaro. The contact stated while his wife was stopped at a traffic light, the light turned green and the vehicle lost motive power and stalled. The contact stated that his wife was unable to restart the vehicle. The contact stated that when he attempted to jump start the vehicle, the vehicle remained off, but the passenger’s side rear taillight illuminated, and the windshield wipers engaged independently. The contact was able to restart the vehicle after three attempts. There were no warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a dealer who diagnosed that the battery had failed. The vehicle was then taken to Connell Chevrolet (2828 Harbor Blvd, Costa Mesa, CA 92626) who diagnosed that the battery needed to be replaced. The battery was replaced, and the dealer test drove the vehicle but informed the contact that they could not duplicate the failure. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and a case was opened. The approximate failure mileage was 42,767.
Steering torque sensor failed when trying to turn into driveway and was put at risk of being rear-ended by not being able to get off of roadway (will only turn so far and no further). It is documented on the internet several times (Camaros, Corvettes & Cadillacs) and when you restart vehicle it resets for anywhere from 5 secs. to 5 min. My vehicle has approximately 21,500 miles on it and should not have this kind of defect. There is a message that comes on when it happens that says power assist disabled. There is no advance warning of occurrence. Dealer wants $1,886.82 to fix.
We purchased a vehicle from shamley in El Paso Texas and we were in volved in a head on coullsion. We tried to stop and the breaks didn't function we were going 25 mph. We lost traction control and hit a car who took the red light and the air bags popped and the driver airbags emblem was marked on my forearm. May you please assist me
I had bought a 2017 camaro on 5/18/2021 and on 6/13/2021 I was in a car accident and once we were hit the air bags pop out we were not going to fast and on the driver side the embrome pop out and also smoke the driver had put his arm to cover his face and he has the mark on his arm of the embrome
Was involved in a hit n run June 13 2021. My insurance claim stated my car has 2 unrepaired recalls. The emblem hit me on the forearm
Screen display plan out words when weather get cold. I heard a lot people complain about that problem. Please record that problem, also blind spots. Very dangerous
Transmission in the 2016 and up 6 speed manual will pop out of second gear and making horrible grinding noises upon engaging and releasing clutch. I know several people who have had this issue and they told me GM is aware of the issue but ignoring it but it is a safety issue because it leaves a person in neutral in traffic when shifting to second it will go in and pop out. It is defective transmission housing in these expensive cars and mines has been doing it since I have had it and it is definitely the defective transmission housing and there is even a YouTube video on it. This needs to be addressed before Gm gets sued for this. Pandemic has made it even harder to get dealership to get stuff done because personally my car sat at Butler Chevrolet in Macon two months and they still never touched it and told us to come get my vehicle because they had no one to work on it and they had us in a loaner car with improper tags and registration issues and we reported that to local authorities and we are planning to sue them also if they don't settle for the discrimination and hard time they gave us letting my car sit months for no reason just to tell me they had no qualified technician to work on it and they had got my car full of ants and insects. We need this recalled so that anyone with these dangerous transmissions will get it repaired. Don't do your customers like this we are well aware of what's happening here. We pay good money for these cars. Recall these things before it leads to bigger class action issues and I'm a car truck guy and very mechanically inclined and have many friends who have these cars in manual and some of them have had transmission replacement due to defective housing and that solved the issue.
