SEATS
I RECEIVED A LETTER IN THE MAIL IN 2015 REGARDING THE ADJUSTABLE SEAT FOR THE PASSENGER AND DRIVER SEATS. THE RECALL INVOLVED A PROBLEM IN WHICH THE SEAT WAS FALLEN TO THE LOWEST POSITION. WHEN I RECEIVED THE LETTER, I DID NOT HAVE ANY PROBLEMS, BUT IN MY ATTEMPT TO BE RESPONSIBLE I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP. RECENTLY I FACED THE PROBLEM, THE LEVER TO ADJUST THE INCLINE OF THE SEAT IS STUCK, AND MY SEAT IS IN ITS LOWEST POSITION. IT'S INCLINED ALL THE WAY TO THE BACK. I CONTACTED GM AND THEY SAID THE REPAIR WAS GOING TO BE COVERED THROUGH THE RECALL, SO I MADE AN APPOINTMENT AND TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP. MY CAR WAS IN THE DEALER FOR 1 1/2 WEEKS, AND IT WAS NOT REPAIRED. I RECEIVED A TEXT AND THEY SAID IT WAS GOING TO COST ME $381 TO REPAIR. THEN I CONTACT THE HEADQUARTERS OF GM AND THEY EXPLAINED MY CAR WAS NOT GOING TO BE FIXED BECAUSE IT WAS CHECKED BACK IN 2015 (WHEN IT WORKED FINE). THEN THEY SAID THEY WERE GOING TO CONTACT ME IN 3 BUSINESS DAYS TO PROVIDE ME WITH A COUPON TO LOWER THE PRICE OF THE REPAIR. TODAY I RECEIVED A CALL FROM ANOTHER REPRESENTATIVE AND SHE MENTIONED THEY DO NOT OFFER COUPONS. I ASKED EVERYONE FOR A WRITTEN STATEMENT EXPLAINING WHY MY CAR WAS NOT REPAIR AND THEY DID NOT PROVIDE IT; THEREFORE, I PLEASE ASK FOR YOUR HELP TO WORK THROUGH THIS RECALL AND GET MY CAR REPAIRED. FORTUNATELY, WHEN MY SEAT GOT STUCK IN ITS LOWER POSITION DUE TO THE LEVER NOT WORKING THE CAR WAS STATIONARY; HOWEVER, IT'S UNSAFE TO DRIVE THE CAR WITHOUT HAVING A SEAT BACKREST.

AFTER HAVING CAR TOWED TO A FRIEND'S SHOP WE WERE ABLE TO GET IT ON A LIFT AND SEE THAT THE DRIVE SHAFT HAD EXPLODED AT THE MID POINT. AFTER FURTHER INSPECTION WE FOUND THAT THE EMERGENCY BRAKE CABLES HAD BET COMPLETELY DESTROYED AND THE DRIVE SHAFT THAT WAS LEFT ATTACHED TO TRANSMISSION HAD RIPPED INTO THE TUNNEL OF THE CAR. I COULD SEE THE CARPET AND PLASTIC TO CENTER CONSOLE THROUGH THIS HOLE.

AIR BAGS
AT ABOUT 34,000 MILES ON THE CAR, I STARTED GETTING INTERMITTENT CODES WHENEVER SOMEBODY WAS SITTING IN THE PASSENGER SIDE SEAT ABOUT THE AIRBAG NOT BEING ACTIVATED. AFTER SOME TIME THE CODE WAS STEADY AND NOW THE AIRBAG REMAINS DEACTIVATED AT ALL TIMES, EVEN IF SOMEONE SITTING IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. I DID HAVE THIS DIAGNOSED AND IT CAME UP AS THE PASSENGER AIRBAG MODULE, THE REPLACEMENT COST IS APPROXIMATELY $1,000. I HAVE ALSO DISCOVERED THROUGH A RELATIVE THAT HAS ACCESS TO THE MECHANICS COMMUNICATION BOARD THAT ALTHOUGH IT COMES UP AS THE MODULE IT IS A KNOWN WIRING ISSUE. APPARENTLY THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN GOING ON THROUGH SEVERAL YEAR MODELS OF THE CAMARO. I DID REACH OUT TO CHEVROLET ABOUT THE PROBLEM HOWEVER THE ONLY HELP THAT THEY WOULD OFFER WAS TO CALL THE DEALERSHIP SO THE DEALERSHIP COULD CALL ME SO I CAN BRING IT IN AND HAVE IT FIXED. FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND CHANGING THE MODULE DOES NOT FIX THE PROBLEM AS IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE WIRING SYSTEM. I'M A LITTLE OUTRAGED THAT CHEVROLET HAS KNOWN ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND YET CONTINUES TO USE THE SAME SYSTEM IN OTHER YEAR MODELS AND CHOOSES TO DO NOTHING ABOUT IT. SO AT THIS MOMENT I AM DRIVING AROUND WITH OUT AN AIRBAG ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. I'M NOT REALLY SURE WHY THEY HAVE NOT BEEN HELD ACCOUNTABLE ON SUCH A SAFETY ISSUE.
