UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I TOOK THE CAR TO NASH CHEVROLET IN LAWRENCEVILLE, GA FOR THE RECALL WORK ON THE FOB (#14294).THEY PERFORMED THE WORK ACCORDING TO THE GM PROCESS. THE RESULT IS UNACCEPTABLE. NOW I HAVE A HOLE WHERE THE KEY WAS WHICH IS SUSCEPTIBLE TO DIRT AND WATER. SEE ATTACHED PICTURE. THE DEALER WILL NOT CORRECT AND DEFERS TO THE GM. GM WILL NOT CORRECT. YOU INITIATED THE CORRECTIVE WORK AND MUST HAVE APPROVED THE PROCESS. YOU ALL OUGHT TO BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELVES! I'VE SEEN ON THE INTERNET A REPLACEMENT PLASTIC "COVER" THAT COULD BE INSERTED BUT WAS NEVER OFFERED THE SOLUTION. THE FEE WAS RUMORED TO BE $46. AGAIN, YOU ALL OUGHT TO BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELVES! DON'T YOU THINK A SMALL CIRCUIT BOARD OPEN TO THE ENVIRONMENTS IS JUST AS DANGEROUS NOT TO MENTION AESTHETICALLY UNPLEASING? AT A MINIMUM, I AM REQUESTING THE APPROPRIATE CORRECTIVE ACTION TO BE TAKEN AND THE NHTSA RE-OPEN THE CASE AND INVESTIGATE!

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CHEVROLET CAMARO. THE CONTACT STARTED THE IGNITION AND THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. IN ADDITION, THE VEHICLE STALLED, BUT WAS ABLE TO RESTART ON THE FIRST ATTEMPT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER (JIM CAUSLEY BUICK GMC TRUCK, 38111 S GRATIOT AVE, CLINTON, MI 48036) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE CHARCOAL CANISTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CANISTER WAS INFESTED WITH SPIDERS AND SPIDER WEBS THAT BLOCKED THE FLOW OF FUEL FUMES, WHICH CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO STALL. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL AND WERE FAMILIAR WITH THE FAILURE. NO ADDITIONAL ASSISTANCE WAS OFFERED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 26,000.

ENGINE
78000 MILES, TIMING CHAIN ISSUE, SPUN ROD BEARINGS, AND LOW COMPRESSION IN THE ENGINE. OIL AND MAINTENANCE DONE ON A REGULAR BASIS. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT DID NOT GO ON, NO WARNING SIGNS, AND DID NOT AUTOMATICALLY SHUT OFF, KEPT RUNNING. I WAS GOING 40 MILES PER HOURS ON A HIGHWAY, WAS DRIVING AND STARTED HEARING THE ENGINE SOUND LIKE A TRACTOR TRAILER, HEARING BANGS EVERY 3/4 OF A SECOND. HEARING MULTIPLE REPORTS ON CAMARO FORUMS ABOUT THIS, AND NOTHING IS BEING DONE, CHEVY SAID IT IS AN OWNER ISSUE, I NEEDED TO GET MY ENTIRE ENGINE REPLACED BECAUSE OF IT. THIS IS NOT NORMAL FOR 78,000 MILES ON A CAR, BUT I GUESS THAT IS WHY THEY BROUGHT THEIR POWER TRAIN WARRANTY DOWN ABOUT THE SAME TIME PEOPLE STARTED REPORTING THESE ISSUES. CONTACTED GM DIRECTLY AND THEY SAID THEIR WAS NOTHING THEY CAN DO ABOUT IT BUT MAKE A REPORT ABOUT IT, AND IF THEY EVER COME AROUND TO A RECALL THEY WILL PAY ME BACK THE COST OF THE PRIOR REPAIR.

AIR BAGS, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
SERVICE AIR BAG SUDDENLY CAME ON AND WILL NOT GO OFF. THE CAR ALARMS EVERY FEW SECONDS AND FLASHES THE WARNING SERVICE AIR BAG. IT WILL NOT GO OFF AND PREVENT ME FROM SEEING HOW FAST I AM GOING ETC ETC. I STILL HAVE A WARRANTEE ON CAR BUT I AM SURE IT DOES NOT INCLUDE AIR BAG. IT IS SCARY TO DRIVE BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW IF AIR BAG WILL ENGAGE AND CAUSE ME TO WRECK. I AM TERRIFIED. ALSO THE TRACTION ENDED UP FRYING MY COMPUTER AND AFTER 2000 DOLLARS LATER MY CAR SOUNDS LIKE STARTER OR BATTERY IS DRAINED. WHICH IS EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED BEFORE IT FRIED THE COMPUTER THE FIRST TIME.VERY FRUSTRATING.

AIR BAGS
I BOUGHT THIS CAR NEW AND HAS ABOUT 85000 MILES ON IT AND TOOK IT IN BECAUSE OF AIRBAG LIGHT BEING ON. I WAS TOLD PASSENGER PRESENT SENSOR NEEDS TO BE REPLACED WHICH CAUSES AIRBAG LIGHT TO REMAIN ON WHEN CAR IS MOVING. THIS IS RIDICULOUS I LOOKED ABOUT THIS CLAIM AND THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF CAMAROS WITH THIS EXACT SAME ISSUE. THIS IS A $700 REPLACEMENT AND DOES NOT SIT WELL WITH ME AS I'VE ALWAYS BOUGHT CHEVYS AND NOT HAD ISSUES BEFORE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND IF I HAVE TO PAY $700 TO FIX A SAFETY ISSUE THAT WAS DEFECTIVE WITH THIS VEHICLE AND SEVERAL HUNDRED OTHERS THEN THIS IS A MANUFACTURE DEFECT THAT SHOULD NOT FALL ON CONSUMER TO GET IT REPLACED. LET ME KNOW WHAT CAN BE DONE HERE! THANKS *TR
