POWER TRAIN, ENGINE, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? - the car itself stopped as I was driving up a hill. The car would not accelerate and while in Drive, the car began to roll backwards. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? - as I the car stopped accelerating, I was at a red light with other cars present. I have to put my car in park and have my emergency brakes. Luckily the car did not ram into me and luckily I did not ram into the other car due to the car rolling backwards. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? - yes the transmission needs replace. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? - it has been inspected by my local dealership (not at the dealership that the car was previously bought from) Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? - no

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
When shifting the vehicle into park and attempting to turn off car, vehicle will give a message on dash “shift to park” when the vehicle is already in park. This issue can cause possible rolling of vehicle for not properly being in park. Power draining due to instruments not shutting down properly. Possible theft of vehicle due to vehicle not locking while exiting. You have to remove from park and shift back into park a few times so the computer can actually recognize that vehicle is in park. A lot of 2017+ Camaros are having this issue. Needs to be addressed because it can cause people to be stranded due to drained batteries or theft of vehicle because vehicle doesn’t lock properly due to computer thinking vehicle isn’t in park.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
At random times the car will get the check engine light (Code P2138 when scanned) & show a message on the dash saying “engine power reduced”. This happened to me twice while driving on the highway & 4 other times while driving on city streets. When this happens , I have to pull over to the side of the rode as fast as I can to avoid getting hit by other vehicles since the car looses power. The car has been to the Chevrolet dealership a total 4 times having the pedal replaced but the issue has not been fixed.

SEATS, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, AIR BAGS
The "Safety Restraint system" service warning kept coming on the dash. The chevrolet place said they would have to change the "connectors" on the sensor under the passenger seat. So I had to pay them $100 to fix this. My passenger could have been in danger of NOT having an airbag deploy if needed if I was to get in a wreck! Yes the problem was confirmed by Westgate chevrolet in Burgaw, NC.

BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR DURING A TRACK DAY. THE CAMARO WAS A 1LE TRACK PACKAGE AND GM SELLS IT WITH A WARRANTY FOR TRACK AS WELL AS INSTRUCTIONS FOR CHANGES TO THINGS INCLUDING MOVING TO A DOT 4 BRAKE FLUID. I HAD DONE THAT.
