ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
THE IGNITION KEY WON'T COME OUT AFTER PUTTING THE VEHICLE IN PARK. IT STOPS AT THE ACC POSITION. ONE TIME AFTER A FEW MINUTES IT RELEASED AND IT TURNED FROM ACC TO OFF AND CAME OUT. I HAVE TRIED EVERYTHING, PUTTING IT IN AND OUT OF PARK, RESTARTING THE ENGINE, TURNING THE KEY ON AND TO ACC AND NOTHING WORKS, THEN IT DOES. THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF THE SAME COMPLAINTS ALL OVER THE INTERNET INCLUDING THIS NHTSA WEBSITE.. GM NEED TO FIX THIS FAULT FOR FREE AND RECALL ALL THEIR FAULTY VEHICLES ASAP.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
ABOUT 1 MONTH AGO, KEY STARTED TO GET STUCK IN IGNITION AFTER PARKING AND TURNING OFF ENGINE. BECAME MORE FREQUENT WHERE IT WOULDN'T COME OUT UNTIL I FOUND OUT THAT THE PROBLEM THAT IS CAUSING THE KEY TO GET STUCK, IS IGNITION SWITCH RELATED. SHOWED ME A WAY WHAT TO DO AND GET THE KEYS OUT. NOW WHEN I PUT IT IN PARK, I HAVE TO CLICK THAT BUTTON ON THE SHIFTER A FEW TIMES UNTIL I HEAR A CLICKING NOISE FROM THE DASH BETWEEN STEERING HEEL AND THE SPEDOMETER CLOSE TO IGNITION. I TURN VEHICLE OFF. BUT THAT IS THE ONLY WAY TO REMOVE THE KEYS. YESTERDAY HAD TO REPLACE BATTERY. IT WENT COMPLETELY DEAD W/O ANY WARNING. WENT BACK TO AUTOZONE TO HAVE THE BRAND NEW BATTERY TESTED AND THE RESULT OF THAT WAS AS FOLLOWED. BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR CHECKED OUT FINE WITH GOOD READINGS BUT STARTER IS NOT EVEN READING AT ALL. ABSOLUTELY NOT GIVING ANY REDING AT ALL! BOTTOM LINE: HAVE TO REPLACE THE STARTER. MY VEHICLE IS A 2015 AND I HAVE 46,254 MI ON IT. THE AVERAGE LIFE SPAN OF STARTER RANGE 100K - 150K. ALREADY WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE THE CAR WAS PURCHASED BUT WAS TOLD IT COULD NOT HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE IGNITION SWITCH. WRONG !!! P.S. CAR WAS STATIONARY IN PARKING LOT OR DRIVEWAY IN EVERY SINGLE INCIDENT. THANK GOD! AFTER READING UP ON THIS ONLINE, AFRAID OF VEHICLE TO TURN OFF WITHOUT ANY WARNING WHILE DRIVING AND LOSING ALL CONTROL OF VEHICLE. WAS TOLD THAT STARTER IS WHAT KILLED MY BATTERY OVER NIGHT WITHOUT ANY WARNINGS. AND YES, I DO FLIP THROUGH ALL MY SETTING DAILY WHEN DRIVING CHECKING TIRE PRESSURE, OIL ETC. BATTERY NEVER DISPLAYED AS WEAK NOR ENGINE LIGHT SHOWING.

POWER TRAIN
STARTED W THE CAR POPPING OUT OF 2ND. DRIVING, THEN SUDDENLY IN NEUTRAL. OBVIOUSLY, NOT SAFE IN TRAFFIC OR IN ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE. SOON IT WOULD GRIND WHEN GOING INTO 2ND. I FOUND IT WOULD GO INTO GEAR BETTER IF I 'GUNNED' IT A BIT. BUT, THEN, I'M RISKING GOING TOO FAST UNEXPECTEDLY, AND CAN'T BE GOOD ON THE MOTOR. BEFORE TOO LONG, IT IS BASICALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO GO INTO 2ND, EITHER UP (1-2) OR DOWN (3-2). NOW, I JUST SKIP 2ND. BUT, THIS ISN'T GOOD FOR MOTOR!! ALSO, HAVING TO REV HIGH IN 1ST FOR A SMOOTHER JUMP TO 3RD ISN'T GOOD. SLOWING FOR TURNS, THE MOTOR BOGS DOWN, SOMETIMES STALLS!!! DANGEROUS WITH SOMEONE BEHIND ME! LOOKED UP ISSUE, SEEMS TO BE VERY COMMON PROBLEM. TAKEN TO SHOP 3X, CAN'T REPLICATE OR PINPOINT PROBLEM. I REPLICATE IT EVERY DAY!! DEALER ADVICE IS VERY COSTLY TRANSMISSION WORK! IF THIS IS SO COMMON, ISN'T THIS A DESIGN FLAW?? IT SEEMS TO ME A POTENTIALLY VERY DANGEROUS DESIGN FLAW. SOME RESEARCH SUGGESTS THERE IS A SIMPLE ADJUSTMENT THAT CAN BE DONE, THRU THE GEAR SHIFT COVER?! BUT, DEALER NOR AUTO SHOP INTERESTED IN 'INTERNET EASY FIX'. (NOT ENOUGH CASH IN POCKET??) AT A LOSS, I DON'T WANT COSTLY WORK DONE ON A TRANS, WHEN NOT NEEDED. BUT, IT'S CLEARLY GOING TO NEED THE WORK IF I CAN'T GET HELP SOON. NEED CHEVY TO BE HONEST ABOUT THIS CLEARLY COMMON ISSUE, RECOGNIZE THE PROBLEM RATHER THAN DENY! RECALL FOR THE WORK. AND, STOP PLAYING GAMES. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS. WE SHOULDN'T HAVE ISSUES STRAIGHT OFF THE LOT AND/ OR ON-GOING SOON AFTER AND FOREVERMORE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET CAMARO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, HE WOULD HEAR AN ABNORMAL POPPING SOUND EMIT FROM HIS SPEAKERS. ONCE THE NOISE STARTED, THE SPEAKERS WOULD GO SILENT WHICH THEN RENDERED OTHER ELECTRICAL FEATURES SUCH AS THE TURN SIGNALS AND HAZARD LIGHTS TO NOT OPERATE AS NEEDED. IN ORDER TO CORRECT THE FAILURE, THE CONTACT WOULD HAVE TO DISCONNECT THE BATTERY FOR A FEW MINUTES, RE-INSTALL AND RESTART THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT THEN STATED THAT THE FAILURE WOULD RECUR SOON AFTER THE RESET. THE CONTACT CALLED HENDERSON CHEVROLET BUICK GMC (2746 US-41 NORTH, HENDERSON, KY 42420) WHERE THEY INFORMED HIM THAT THEY WERE UNAWARE OF THE FAILURE AND THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS ON THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS THEN NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND THE CONTACT WAS GIVEN A CLAIM NUMBER. THE VEHICLE HAD YET TO BE REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 49,000.

AT RANDOM, THE KEY DOES NOT COME OUT OF THE IGNITION. IT HAPPENS FOR NO SPECIFIC REASON, THE STEERING WHEEL IS STRAIGHT WHEN I SHUT OF THE CAR, IT IS NOT PARKED ON A HILL. THE KEY JUST WON'T COME OUT. I TOOK IT TO A CHEVY DEALER, BUT THEY COULD NOT GET THE KEY TO NOT COME OUT WHEN THEY HAD THE CAR, WHICH WAS AN 1 1/2 HOURS. I WAS CHARGED $130 EVEN THOUGH THEY DIDN'T FIX ANYTHING. THEY WANTED ME TO LEAVE THE VEHICLE WITH THEM FOR A DAY, CHARGE ME $400, TO SEE IF THEY COULD FIX IT. MY FIX WAS TO WATCH A U TUBE VIDEO OF A MAN TAKING APART THE STEERING COLUMN AND UNHOOKING A PLUG, THEREFOR YOU THEN WOULD BE ABLE TO PULL OUT YOUR KEY. I DID THAT, MY KEY NO LONGER DOES NOT COME OUT. BUT UNSURE IF THAT IS THE BEST THING TO DO, OR IF IT IS EFFECTING SOME OTHER PART OF MY CAR BADLY. APPRECIATE SOME HELP.

THE KEY GETS STUCK IN THE IGNITION. I HAVE TO RESTART THE CAR, BACK IT UP, PULL IT FORWARD AND TRY TO TURN THE KEY TO STOP SO IT WILL RELEASE. USUALLY HAVE TO DO THIS SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE IT RELEASES. I DID FIND IF I TAKE THE FOB OFF AND ONLY HAVE THE IGNITION KEY ON A KEY RING IT DOESN'T HAPPEN AS OFTEN. IF I FORGET AND LEAVE THE FOB ATTACHED TO THE KEY, I HAVE ISSUES GETTING MY KEY TO RELEASE JUST ABOUT EVERY TIME. THIS HAS BEEN ONGOING FOR SEVERAL MONTHS.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
ON AUGUST 17, 2019, I PURCHASED A CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED 2015 CHEVROLET CAMARO FROM CHAPMAN FORD OF HORSHAM. THE CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED CHEVROLET CAMARO THAT I PURCHASED IS DEFECTIVE AND DOES NOT CONFORM TO THE MANUFACTURER AND DEALER EXPRESS AND IMPLIED WARRANTIES. THE VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY LOCATED AT CHAPMAN CHEVROLET IN PHILADELPHIA DUE TO THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY SHUTTING OFF WITHOUT WARNING WHILE MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING IN TRAFFIC ON THE HIGHWAY. THE TECHNICIAN WHO DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM DETERMINED THAT THE CAUSE WAS DUE TO A LARGE PRE-EXISTING WATER LEAK FROM A HOSE DETACHING FROM THE SUNROOF THAT IS LOCATED IN THE TRUNK CORRODING THE WIRING AND CAUSING ELECTRICAL SYSTEM DAMAGE THAT EXISTED PRIOR TO MY PURCHASE OF THE VEHICLE. WHEN I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE, THE MILEAGE WAS 29,883. THE CURRENT ODOMETER READING OF THE VEHICLE IS LESS THAN 34,000 MILES. THIS IS CLEARLY A DESIGN AND SAFETY DEFECT THAT ENDANGERED MY HUSBAND'S LIFE, AS WELL AS MINE, AND COULD HAVE RESULTED IN THE CAR CATCHING ON FIRE OR CAUSING A CRASH. THIS DEFECT OF THE CAR HAS SUBSTANTIALLY IMPACTED MY ABILITY TO USE THE VEHICLE AND ITS VALUE. THE DEFECT HAS ALSO RENDERED THE VEHICLE UNSAFE FOR USE. WE HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT ONCE THE VEHICLE IS REPAIRED THE HOSE LOCATED IN THE TRUNK CAN DETACH AGAIN WITHOUT US KNOWING AND WATER WOULD BE ABLE TO LEAK INTO THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. HERE IS A LINK TO THE DIAGNOSIS VIDEO: HTTPS://CHAPMANFORDHORSHAM.UNOTIFI.COM/PIC_WATCHVIDEO.PHP?VID=B76E24CC-5E35-4E45-9C4C-646F092D7729&DID=6C330823-C29E-6895-19EA-5A538F785D5A

2015 2LS CHEVY CAMARO- RADIO SYSTEM FLICKERS ON AND OFF, WHILE THE CAR IS PARKED OR IN MOTION. WHEN IT SHUTS OFF THE SPEAKERS POP, AND NO AUDIO (EVEN DOOR CHIMES AND TURN SIGNALS) CAN BE HEARD AT ALL. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE (GOOGLE IT) AND CHEVY REFUSES TO ISSUE A RECALL. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND IS VERY DISTRACTING WHEN DRIVING. I'M SOME CASES, THE ENTIRE CLIMATE CONTROL DOES NOT WORK EITHER!

NEWLY LICENSED SON WAS DRIVING DOWN BUSY 4 LANE ROAD WHEN CAR SHUT OFF. HE WAS ABLE TO MAKE IT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD SAFELY EVEN THOUGH STEERING BECAME VERY HARD AND NO ACCELERATION, CAR STARTED RIGHT BACK UP, HOWEVER WE WORRY ABOUT NEXT TIME. WE JUST PURCHASED THE CAR AT THE A LOCAL CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP. THEY GAVE US ONE KEY FOB, WE HAD TO PURCHASE A 2ND KEY. THEY WOULD ONLY MAKE A KEY AND FOB SEPARATELY. THERE IS A PROBLEM, WE BELIEVE WITH THE IGNITION SWITCH. HAVE CHECKED, IT APPEARS TO BE AN ISSUE BUT THERE IS NO RECALL. OTHER CHEVROLET VEHICLES WITH THE SAME ISSUE HAVE RECALLS, BUT THIS ONE DOES NOT?? *TR
