2010 Chevrolet Camaro Complaint Log

PASSENGER AIR BAG SENSOR DID NOT DETECT A PASSENGER IN THE SEAT, HAD TO PAY $$ TO HAVE THIS REPLACED. ON STAR RED LIGHT WAS ALSO ON THEN GREEN ON & OFF. ON STAR SAID IT A COMMUNICATION FAILED & WITH THE ACCIDENT NOTIFICATION. THE CAR WAS CHECKED AT DEALERSHIP SAME TIME THE AIR BAG SENSOR WAS CHECKED. THEN CHECKED 2 MORE TIMES SINCE. THE DEALERSHIP COULD NOT FIND THE PROBLEM & TOLD US THEY WOULD HAVE TO TAKE DASH & CONSOLE OUT TO FIND PROBLEM AT OUR EXPENSE & OUR EXPENSE FOR A DIAGNOSTIC AGAIN. WE NOW HAVE THE CAR AT A DIFFERENT GM DEALERSHIP THAT HAS A TESTING INSTRUMENT FOR THE ANTENNA AND. IT CHARGING US FOR THE DIAGNOSTIC. WE BOUGHT THIS CAR OFF SHOW ROOM AT DEALERSHIP FOR OUR DAUGHTER TO HAVE A DEPENDABLE SAFE CAR TO GET HER THROUGH HIGH SCHOOL & COLLEGE. NO THE EXTENDED WARRANTY HASN'T COVERED ANY OF THIS. *TR

WITH NO ONE SITTING IN THE PASSENGER SEAT, I TURNED THE CAR ON AND THE PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT FLASHED ON AND OFF. THE DRIVERS PANEL AIRBAG LIGHT WAS FLASHING. IT WOULD GO OFF WITH SOME TURNS OFF THE CAR. LEFT OR RIGHT DIDN'T MATTER. THIS WENT ON FOR A FEW MONTHS. IF SOMEONE SAT IN THE SEAT THEY WOULD HAVE TO MOVE AROUND FOR THE SENSOR TO PICK UP THEY WERE IN THE SEAT. THE AIRBAG LIGHT IN THE DRIVERS PANEL EVENTUALLY STAYED A SOLID LIGHT AND NO LONGER FLASHED. *JS

I HAVE TAKEN THIS VEHICLE IN SEVERAL TIMES FOR LOSS OF POWER WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY. IN ADDITION TO THE VEHICLE LOSING POWER, REDUCED SPEED VEHICLE DROPPED FROM 60 MPH TO 25MPH. THE FIRST TIME THE DEALERSHIP STATED THE VEHICLES COMPUTER HAD 5 ERROR MESSAGES & JUST NEEDED TO BE RESET. THE SECOND TIME OCCURRED A COUPLE OF MONTHS LATER. I ADDRESSED THE MANUFACTURER & DEALERSHIP MANAGER...THEY SAID NOTHING COULD BE DONE. THEY RESET THE COMPUTER AGAIN, AFTER THE 3RD INCIDENT ALMOST CAUSED ME TO HAVE AN ACCIDENT THE DEALERSHIP PROVIDED ME A RENTAL & THOROUGHLY INSPECTED THE VEHICLE TO DIAGNOSE THE ISSUES. THE VEHICLE WAS ALSO MAKING A GRINDING NOISE BETWEEN 20-30MPH BETWEEN 2ND & 3RD GEAR. THE VEHICLE HAS ONLY BEEN SERVICED BY AN AUTHORIZED GM DEALERSHIP SINCE I PURCHASED IT. THIS TIME THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER WAS THE MAIN CULPRIT, HOWEVER THE VEHICLE WAS ALMOST ENTIRELY VOID OF OIL....THIS WAS IN BETWEEN THE MANUFACTURER RECOMMENDED OIL CHANGE INTERVAL- APPRX HAD DRIVEN IN 4700 MILES THE GRINDING NOISE WAS SAID TO BE DUE TO LACK OF OIL BUT NO OIL LEAK WAS DETECTED. I RESEARCHED THIS ISSUE IN SEVERAL AUTO FORUMS & DISCOVERED THAT THE HIGH OUTPUT 3.6 LITER V6 ENGINES HAD A KNOWN PROBLEM FOR BURNING OIL & CAUSING THE ENGINE TO WEAR & BREAKDOWN PREMATURELY. DEALER ADVISED ME THAT I WOULD NEED TO TAKE THE VEHICLE IN EVERY 1000 MILES TO CHECK HOW QUICKLY THE OIL WAS BURNING IN BETWEEN OIL CHANGES. THEY CONFIRMED THAT IF INDEED IT WAS BURNING OIL THEY WOULD REPLACE THE ENGINE UNDER WARRANTY. I BELIEVE THIS TO BE VERY DANGEROUS, LOSS OF POWER AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS MULTIPLE TIMES IS VERY ALARMING & WAS NOT TAKEN SERIOUSLY BY GM CUSTOMER SUPPORT - DEALERSHIP SERVICE ADVISOR WAS MORE HELPFUL THAN THE MANAGER. *JS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CHEVROLET CAMARO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT HE NOTICED THAT THERE WAS A CRACK ON THE DASHBOARD ABOVE THE PASSENGER'S SIDE AIR BAG. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR INSPECTION WHERE THEY STATED THAT DASHBOARD NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 28,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

ORIGINAL OEM CLUTCH FAILURE DUE TO BAD DESIGN, NO REPLACEMENT PART AVAILABLE FROM GM. FAILURE OF CLUTCH AT HIGH SPEEDS COULD CAUSE DAMAGE AND POSSIBLE DEATH TO DRIVER AND OTHER SURROUNDING VEHICLES. *JS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CHEVROLET CAMARO. THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING 70 MPH WHEN DRIVER'S SIDE HEATED SEAT BURNED THROUGH HER RIGHT LEG. THE HEATED SEAT WAS IN USE FOR ABOUT AN HOUR BEFORE IT FAILED. THE SEAT CAUSED BLISTERS TO THE CONTACT'S LEG THAT WERE TREATED BY THE CONTACT HERSELF. THE VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED BUT WAS NOT REPAIRED OR DIAGNOSED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 34,000.

VEHICLE DISPLAYS A "SERVICE AIRBAG" LIGHT AND MESSAGE IN THE MESSAGE DISPLAY. I WAS TOLD THAT THIS WILL LEAD TO A NON-DEPLOYABLE AIRBAG IN CASE OF AN ACCIDENT. SEVERAL PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. I WAS TOLD THAT THE SENSOR IS DEFECTIVE. *TR

REPAIR AIR BAG LIGHT DISPLAYS ON INSTRUMENT PANEL. CAR TAKE TO DEALERSHIP AND EVEN THOUGH I BOUGHT EXTENDED WARRANTY THE SAY IT'S NOT COVERED AND THE WANT $600.00 TO FIX IT. I CHECKED INTERNET AND THERE ARE LOTS OF PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR

I HAVE HAD MY CAR FOR 1 YEAR. WHEN I GET TO 55MPH THE STEERING WHEEL SHAKE SO BAD, IT'S UNBEARABLE. THIS HAVE BEEN GOING ON SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID IT WAS THE ALIGNMENT. THEY ALIGNED FOR ME. WELL IT RAN PRETTY GOOD FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS AND THEN IT STARTED BACK SHAKING. I ALSO HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE ROTORS OR BRAKES OR SOMETHING TO THAT NATURE. IT SOUNDS LIKE A 18 WHEELER WHEN I STOP. THE ROTORS OR SOMETHING MAKE SOME KIND OF WOBBLING NOISE WHEN I DRIVE. I TURN THE RADIO DOWN QUITE OFTEN SO I CAN HEAR IF ANYTHING IS COMING OFF FROM THE BRAKES. I'M NOT PARANOID, BECAUSE PASSENGERS IN THE CAR ASK ME ALL THE TIME, "WHAT'S THAT NOISE". FOR ME TO HAVE A DECENT CAR LIKE THE CAMARO, I DON'T UNDERSTAND. CAN YOU PLEASE RUN A THOROUGH CHECK ON THE TIRES, ROTORS, BRAKES ON THESE CARS. ALSO CHECK THE TRUNK TOO, BECAUSE SOMETIME MY TRUNK WON'T OPEN WITH THE KEY NOR BY PUSHING THE BUTTON ON THE INSIDE OF THE CAR. I AM CONCERNED BECAUSE I PURCHASED A CAR OVER $30K AND I'M NOT GETTING ANY ENJOYMENT OUT OF IT. I'M SCARED TO DRIVE TOO FAR BECAUSE THE ROTORS OR SOMETHING MAY COME OFF. HELP PLEASE. *JS

CHEVROLET CAMARO 2010, DRIVING ON INTERSTATE VEHICLE STEERING BECAME STIFF (FELT AS IF IT LOCKED UP). SLID OFF INTERSTATE ACROSS TWO LANES OFF TRAFFIC INTO THE CRASH BARRIER. $23,000 WORTH OF DAMAGE. TOTAL OF COURSE. AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY, ONSTAR DID NOT ACTIVATE. *TR

MY 2010 CHEVY CAMARO 2LT IN 37,000 MILES THE FRONT RIGHT BRAKE CALIPER GOT STUCK AND ATE UP MY ROTOR AND PAD. IN 40,000 MILES IT BROKE A VALVE SPRING. EVER SINCE THEY SAY THEY FIXED IT, IT STILL RUNS LIKE CRAP LOSS OF POWER, AND STILL MISSES BUT DEALER SAYS ITS FINE AND FROM DAY ONE EVERYTIME I GO OVER A BUMP AT ANY SPEED IT SOUNDS LIKE GLASS IS SHATTERING AND IT COMES FROM THE FRONT SUSPENSION. ITS SAD THAT MY 1995 CHEVY PICKUP WITH OVER 300,000 MILES WITH ALL STOCK PARTS STILL RUNS BETTER THAN MY CAMARO. *TR

I TOOK MY CAR IN FOR SERVICE, IE, OIL CHANGE, TIRE ROTATION, AIR FILTER REPLACEMENT. I WAS INFORMED THAT MY TIRES, EVEN THOUGH THEY HAD PLENTY OF TREAD LIFE LEFT ON THEM, 6/32 FRONT, 5/32 REAR, THAT THEY WERE DRY ROTTED AND SEPARATED BETWEEN THE TREADS. ALSO WAS INFORMED THAT THIS COULD BE VERY DANGEROUS, THE TIRES MAY COME APART WHILE DRIVING. I WAS INFORMED BY THE TECHNICIAN THAT THIS WAS A DEFECT IN THE TIRES. IN ADDITION, THE TIRES WERE PUT ON A 2010 CAMARO AND THE MANUFACTURES DATE ON ALL 4 TIRES ARE FROM 2008. I KNOW EVENTUALLY I WOULD HAVE TO BUY NEW TIRES, BUT IF THE TIRES WEREN'T IN THE CONDITION THEY ARE IN I MORE THAN LIKELY COULD GET ANOTHER 30,000 MILES OUT OF THEM. MOST IMPORTANTLY IS THE SAFETY HAZARD OF THE TIRES. LOOKING THROUGH THE REPORTS ON THIS PARTICULAR TIRE, I SAW SIMILAR COMPLAINTS. *TR

CAR WILL NOT GO INTO FIRST OR REVERSE. SHIFTS FINE IN OTHER GEARS AND WHEN CAR TURNED OFF. TOOK TO DEALER WHO SAID CLUTCH WAS WORN AT 50,000 MILES BECAUSE I WAS TOO HARD ON IT? I DON'T RACE, HOT ROD ETC, THAT'S WHY I BOUGHT A V6 MANUAL FOR DURABILITY. AM ONLY OWNER ONLY DRIVER. THIS IS NOT MY FIRST MANUAL TRANSMISSION VEHICLE AND TO HAVE A CLUTCH GO BAD AT 50,000 MILES IS PRE-MATURE AND UNACCEPTABLE AND COSTING $1700.00 GM IS THE ONLY ONES MAKING CLUTCH SO I WAS FORCED TO GO TO DEALER AND PAY FOR REPAIRS FOR A FACTORY ISSUE THAT CAUSED EARLY CLUTCH BURN OUT AND FALSE "OK" DIAGNOSTIC ON TRANSMISSION. TURNS OUT ALOT OF OTHER OWNERS ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AND ITS COSTING US $$$. ANY MECHANIC DRIVING THIS CAR SAID "THIS IS A TRANSMISSION ISSUE, NOT A CLUTCH". A CAR NOT GOING INTO GEAR IS NOT THE CLUTCH. THERE WAS NO GRINDING OF GEARS, IT JUST WOULDN'T GO DESPITE FORCE AND CLUTCH PUSHED ALL THE WAY IN NUMEROUS TIMES. *TR

BOLTS ON THE DRIVE SHAFT ARE DEFECTIVE AND BREAKING OFF THE DRIVE SHAFT. CAR BEGINS TO VIBRATE HEAVILY ON STICK SHIFT AND STEERING WHEEL. IT IS ALSO REPRESENTED AND EQUALLY EXPLAINED ON OTHER WEB PAGES REGARDING THE CHEVROLET, CAMARO PRODUCTS, SAME YEAR OR NEWER. AFTER INSPECTION TWO OF THREE NUTS AND BOLTS EITHER BROKE OFF OR CAME OFF, LEAVING ONE BOLT TO CONTROL THE TORQ AND HORSE POWER TRAVELING DOWN THE DRIVE SHAFT. VEHICLE WAS HARD TO MANEUVER AND CLEAR OFF THE ROAD TO A SAFE LOCATION. *TR

I WAS GOING FOR A DRIVE IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD. I WAS DRIVING DOWN A HILL WHEN THE ACCELERATOR STUCK. AT THE BOTTOM OF THE HILL WAS A BUMP IN THE ROAD. AFTER HITTING THE BUMP THE ENGINE TURNED OFF. I HAD NO BRAKES AND NO STEERING. I THEN SKID OFF THE ROAD INTO A TREE. THERE WAS ONE INJURY, A LADY IN THE BACK SEAT PASSENGER SIDE HIT HER HEAD ON THE BACK OF THE FRONT SEAT PASSENGER. SHE HAD A HUGE GOOSE EGG ON TOP OF HER HEAD AND A BLACK EYE. *TR

I WAS WASHING MY CAR AND I NOTICED A MILKY WHITE LOOKING SPOT ON THE FRONT BUMPER. AFTER I WASHED AND DRIED THE CAR, THE SPOT WAS STILL THERE. THAT IS WHEN I KNEW IT WAS NOT A SPOT, IT LOOKS LIKE THE CLEAR COAT IS COMING OFF THE BUMPER. THEN I LOOKED AT THE REAR BUMPER AND DECK LID AND NOTICED THAT RIGHT WHERE THE FACTORY SPOILER IS ATTACHED TO THE DECK LID ON BOTH SIDES THERE ARE CHIPS OF PAINT MISSING. LOOKS LIKE THE SPOILER HAS RUBBED THE PAINT OFF. I DON'T KNOW WHAT HAS CAUSED THIS, BUT I AM GOING TO CONTACT THE DEALERSHIP AND SEE IF THERE ARE ANY RECALLS OR TSB REPORTS ON BOTH OF THESE ISSUES. *TR

AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON AND WILL NOT GO OFF; I HAVE SEEN SEVERAL REPORTS ONLINE OF OTHERS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR

I HAVE A 2010 CAMARO 2LT WITH 255-20FRONT AND 275-20REAR, AT AROUND 15K KILOMETERS I NOTICED A SLIGHT NOISE OF FRONT TIRES AND EFFECT ON THE STEERING, I FOUND A BIT LATER THAT THE PIRELLI P ZERO'S WERE STARTING TO CUP, I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE INTO MY GM DEALER AND THEY REPLACED THEM THROUGH WARRANTY, I HAD A FULL ALIGNMENT DONE, NOTHING WAS OUT OF LINE OR BALANCE. I AM ON MY 2ND SET OF FRONTS AND THEY ARE ALSO TOAST AT THE SAME MILEAGE INTERVAL. I AM NOT SURE IF THE TIRES ARE THE PROBLEM OR IF THE VEHICLES STEERING/SUSPENSION SYSTEM IS TO LIGHT TO HANDLE THE LARGE TIRES? WHEN I LOOK AT THE STEERING SYSTEM I AM HIGHLY SUSPICIOUS THAT THIS IS THE CASE. GM WOULD OF COURSE DENY THIS AND I CANNOT PROVE THIS UNTIL I CHANGE OVER TO ANOTHER SET OF TIRES. IT WILL BE INTERESTING TO FIND OUT IF THE STEERING BEING TOO LIGHT WOULD BE THE PROBLEM. *TR

MY PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG DOES NOT RECOGNIZE WHEN I HAVE A PASSENGER THAT MEETS THE WEIGHT REQUIREMENTS, I HAVE READ SEVERAL FORUMS OF SAME PROBLEMS AND CAN'T SEEM TO GET CHEVY TO REALIZE THIS IS A MALFUNCTION AND A SAFETY ISSUE, I THINK THAT A RECALL SHOULD BE MADE AND THIS SHOULD NOT BE OWNERS EXPENSE, BUT MY LOCAL DEALER SAYS IT IS. THIS POSSES A THREAT TO MY PASSENGERS AND COULD CAUSE MALFUNCTION IN ANY OF MY AIRBAGS. *TR

I HAVE A DISPLAY ON DASHBOARD THAT SAID SERVICE AIR BAG, I WENT TO THE DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME I HAD TO PAY 900 DOLLAR FOR AN AIRBAG SENSOR ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. I'M THE ONLY DRIVER FOR THE CAR AND IS RARE WHEN I HAVE A PASSENGER. I HEARD OTHER PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME ISSUES. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CHEVROLET CAMARO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 5 MPH AND MAKING A TURN, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHO PERFORMED A DIAGNOSTIC AND REPLACED A COMPONENT TO CORRECT THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE THE EXACT COMPONENT HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO DEALER HOWEVER, NO FAILURE WAS DETERMINED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND AN INCIDENT RECORDER WAS INSTALLED ON THE VEHICLE TO DETERMINE ANY FUTURE FAILURES. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 23,000. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 24,000.

I HAVE A 2010 CAMARO WITH A V6. EVERY TIME I RIDE DOWN THE ROAD, I HEAR A CLUNKING NOISE COMING FROM THE FRONT END. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER BUT ALL THEY SAY IS THEY DON'T HEAR ANYTHING. I BELONG TO A CAMARO CLUB AND 90% OF THE OTHER CAMARO'S DO THE SAME THING. WE BELIEVE IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE STRUTS BUT OF COURSE GM DENIES THAT ANYTHING IS WRONG. THEY NEED TO DO A RECALL BEFORE TO MANY PEOPLE GET KILLED. WE HAVE PEOPLE IN OUR CLUB THAT HAVE 2012 CAMARO'S THAT DO THE SAME THING. MINE HAS DONE IT SINCE DAY 1 BUT LIKE I SAID THE DEALER ALWAYS SAYS THAT NOTHING IS WRONG. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CHEVROLET CAMARO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DRIVER WAS TRAVELING OVER A TWO MILE STRETCH WHEN THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY AND RAPIDLY ACCELERATED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED TO 110 MPH AND PROCEEDED TO TRAVEL THROUGH A FOUR-WAY STOP SIGN. THE DRIVER THEN ENGAGED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE IN AN ATTEMPT TO STOP THE UNINTENDED ACCELERATION AND THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE BECAME ERRATICALLY UNCONTROLLABLE. THE VEHICLE THEN TRAVELED OVER A CURB AND CRASHED INTO THE SIDE OF A RESIDENCE. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. THE DRIVER WAS KILLED IN THE IMPACT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INSPECTED FOR THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THE FAILURE AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 22,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

I PURCHASED MY 2010 CHEVY CAMARO 2SS, IN FEBRUARY OF 2012. IT HAD 4,400 MILES ON IT. ABOUT A MONTH OR TWO, AFTER I BOUGHT IT, IT COMPLETELY SHUT OFF ON ME, ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY, WHILE DOING 65 MPH. I THREW IT INTO NEUTRAL AND TURNED THE KEY AND IT STARTED RIGHT BACK UP. ABOUT A MONTH AFTER THAT, I WAS DOING ABOUT 20MPH ON A BACK ROAD AND IT DID THE SAME EXACT THING. JUST RECENTLY, ABOUT 2 WEEKS AGO, I WAS IN 6TH GEAR, ON CRUISE DOING 60MPH AND I FELT THE CAR "JERK" OR BUCK" A LITTLE BIT. FOLLOWED IMMEDIATELY BY THE CAR DECELERATING. I DOWN-SHIFTED TO 4TH GEAR AND WAS GIVING IT GAS, BUT STILL WOULDN'T SPEED UP. IT FELL DOWN TO ABOUT 40MPH, BEFORE FINALLY CATCHING ITSELF AND SPEEDING BACK UP. ABOUT A MILE LATER, I GOT OFF MY EXIT AND WAS COMING DOWN TO THE STOP SIGN,WHEN ALL THE INDICATOR LIGHTS CAME ON FOR ABOUT 10 SECONDS. THEY WENT OFF AND I MADE A LEFT HAND TURN AND WENT ABOUT A MILE UP THE ROAD. AT THAT POINT, THE CAR COMPLETELY SHUT OFF DOING ABOUT 35MPH. THERE WAS HEAVY TRAFFIC, SO I PULLED OVER AND STARTED IT BACK UP. I CALLED THE CHEVY DEALERSHIP, WHERE I BOUGHT IT FROM, AND THEY HAD NO OPENINGS FOR A WEEK. SO I TOOK IT LAST WEEK TO GET IT CHECKED AND THEY FOUND NOTHING THAT COULD HAVE CAUSED IT, THEY SAY. I AM VERY UPSET, BUT VERY THANKFUL THAT MY TWO CHILDREN WERE NOT WITH ME WHEN IT HAPPENED. I AM CURRENTLY CONTEMPLATING TRADING IT IN, CUZ I AM WORRIED THAT IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN,AND MY CHILDREN ARE IN THE CAR, THAT IT MIGHT SHUT OFF IN VERY CONGESTED BUMPER TO BUMPER TRAFFIC, ON THE HIGHWAY AT NIGHT, AND A TRACTOR TRAILER IS BEHIND ME AND I CAN'T GET IT STARTED OR SOMEONE DOESN'T SEE ME CUZ MY LIGHTS WOULD BE OFF. THE THOUGHT OF THAT COMPLETELY SCARES ME. *TR

WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE FIRST SHUT OFF AT A RED LIGHT FOR NO REASON ON FEB 28 2012 SAME INCIDENT ON MARCH 1ST SHUT OFF A RED LIGHT THIRD TIME IT WAS WHILE DRIVING 10 MPH MAKING A TURN IN A PARKING SPOT. WAS ABLE TO TURN BACK CAR ON WITH NO PROBLEMS BUT IT IS OF GREAT CONCERN NOW IF THIS SHOULD HAPPEN AT A HIGH SPEED I AM SURE CAR CAN CAUSE INJURIES TO OTHERS AS WELL AS MYSELF. *TR

ENGINE CHECK LIGHT CAME ON, AND CAR STARTED RUNNING BADLY AND SHAKING. THIS ALSO HAPPENED IN MARCH 2013, JULY 2013, AND SEPTEMBER 2013. EVERYTIME, THE ECM WENT BAD. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CHEVROLET CAMARO. THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING 5 MPH WHEN THE VEHICLE BECAME HESITANT TO ACCELERATION AND SMOKE WAS RELEASED FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER WHERE THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THE FAILURE AS A BLOWN PISTON. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED WITH A NEW MOTOR. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 25,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

MY CAR WILL NOT DOWNSHIFT INTO 2ND GEAR FROM ANY SPEED. MY CAR WILL ALSO NOT UP-SHIFT FROM 1ST GEAR TO 2ND GEAR AT HIGH RPM'S. *TR

FOR THE PAST THREE YEARS THERE HAS BEEN A TEAR IN THE TOP OF THE DASH ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AND IT APPEARS TO BE SOMETHING UNDER THE DASH IS PUSHING UP TO CREATE THE SLIT IN THE DASH. I AM CONCERNED THAT IT IS THE AIRBAG AND I DO NOT KNOW IF IT IS GETTING READY TO GO OFF ON ITS OWN OR EXACTLY WHAT IS GOING ON WITH IT AS IT IS GROWING. THE SLIT OR TEAR IS APROX. 4 INCHES LONG AND THE BUMP UP IS TO THE RIGHT OF IT. *TR

SHIFTING FROM 1ST TO 2ND GEAR AT HIGHER RPM RESULTS IN GRINDING AND MISSED/DELAYED SHIFT. *TR

ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AND ENGINE STUMBLES AFTER A HEAVY RAIN OR ENGINE SHUTS OFF DURING A HEAVY RAIN WHEN FIRST STARTING ENGINE ON 2010 V-6 CAMARO. *TR

TRIED TO SHIFT GEAR TO FIRST BUT THE GEAR WOULDN'T ENGAGE. CLUTCH PEDAL WAS STUCK TO THE FLOOR AND NOT RELEASING. TOWED CAR TO DEALERSHIP AND AFTER INSPECTION I WAS INFORMED THAT THE CLUTCH WAS WORN AND THE PRESSURE PLATE AND FLYWHEEL HAD TO BE REPLACED. FINAL COST $1965.77. NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. 10/15/11 THE SAME PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED LESS THAN THIRTY DAYS AFTER REPAIRS. DROVE CAR 200 YARDS AND CLUTCH PEDAL WAS STUCK ONCE AGAIN, GEAR WONT ENGAGE. DISCOVERED FLUID LEAKAGE. TAKING CAR BACK TO DEALERSHIP HOPING TO GET A REFUND. *TR

CAR HAS BEEN REPAIRED BY DEALER MULTIPLE TIMES ALONG WITH REPLACEMENT OF BRAND NEW PARTS ON VEHICLE. EVEN AFTER ALL OF THE REPAIRS THE TRANSMISSION DOES NOT PROPERLY WORK. THE TRANSMISSIONS WILL PREVENT YOU FROM ENGAGING INTO FIRST GEAR AND SECOND GEAR AT CERTAIN TIMES. I HAVE RESEARCHED THE TRANSMISSION AND KNOW THAT THIS IS NOT AN OPERATING FEATURE OF THE VEHICLE. IN ADDITION, THERE HAVE BEEN OTHER VEHICLE IN THE PAST THAT HAVE BEEN EQUIPPED WITH THIS TRANSMISSION AND HAVE THE SAME EXACT ISSUES. GENERAL MOTORS HAS PROVIDED WARRANTY WORK ON THE VEHICLE BUT PROBLEMS STILL PERSIST EVEN AFTER A NEW TRANSMISSION AND NEW CLUTCH HAVE BEEN PUT IN THE VEHICLE. I FEEL UNSAFE AT TIMES TO BE DRIVING THIS CAR WHEN IT PREVENTS ME FROM DOWNSHIFTING INTO CERTAIN GEARS. *TR

TRANSMISSION NOT BEING ABLE TO SHIFT FROM 1ST TO 2ND. HARD SHIFTING UNDER HARD ACCELERATION. ALMOST GET REARENDED AT LIGHTS WHEN TAKING OFF. *TR

NEW 2010 CHEVROLET CAMARO....FOUR NEW PIRELLI TIRES CAME WITH NEW CAR...HAD TO REPLACE TIRES DUE TO SEPARATION OF TREAD...CAR ONLY HAD 16,000 MI A YEAR AND A HALF A LITTLE EARLY TO REPLACE TIRES...TOO DANGEROUS TO DRIVE WITH TIRES IN THIS CONDITION...CONTACTED PIRELLI TIRES TO NO AVAIL...BOUGHT A NEW CAR SO AS NOT TO HAVE COSTLY REPAIRS OR DANGEROUS EQUIPMENT..TIRES SHOULD BE RECALLED.. *TR

2010 CAMARO RS, V6 MANUAL TRANSMISSION.--VEH SHIFTS HARD AND AT TIME'S CAN NOT GET INTO SECOND GEAR AND THIS HAS ALMOST CAUSED ME 3 ACCIDENTS ALREADY. WHILE IM IN TRAFFIC--WHEN ITS NOT SHIFTING TO BAD, IT GETS WHAT I CALL GEAR CLASH, OR TECH TERM IS THAT IT IS THE SYNCROS IN TRANSMISSION GRINDING GOING INTO GEARS AS YOU SHIFT.- ALSO CLUTCH IS INTERMIT RELEASING HIGH AND CAUSES BIG JERK IN VEH LIKE SOMEONE PULLING ON E BRAKE AS YOU RELEASE CLUTCH. DEALER HAS BEEN GRAT [TWO OF THEM] BUT THERE IS ONLY SO MUCH THEY CAN DO UNTIL G.M. ADMITS THERE IS A PROBLEM, AND I KNOW 6 PEOPLE WHO ALREADY GOT RID OF VEH AS GM WONT COME UP WITH FIX, ON THE V6 MANUAL OR THE V8 MANUAL TRANS, WHICH V8 MANUAL HAS A SHIFT ISSUE THAT GM REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE. ITS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE IM REAR ENDED IN TRAFFIC BECAUSE OF VEH WONT GO INTO SECOND GEAR. IN WHICH SHOULD BE ADDRESS FOR SAFETY ISSUE. WIFE WONT DRIVE VEH NOW BECAUSE OF THIS. *KB

AT HIGH ENGINE RPM (4000 RPM OR HIGHER)WHILE MERGING IN TO TRAFFIC, TRANSMISSION GRINDS OR REFUSES TO GO IN TO SECOND GEAR. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES IN MY CAR. GM REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION WITH THE SAME TYPE TRANSMISSION AND THE SAME THING IS STILL GOING ON. *TR

VEHICLE WILL INTERMITTENTLY, NOT GO INTO SECOND GEAR, AND HAS ALMOST CAUSED ME TO BE REAR ENDED ABOUT 4 TIMES NOW. VEHICLE IS A STANDARD V6 AND HAS INTERMITTENT GEAR CLASH GOING INTO GEARS. WIFE WILL NOT EVEN DRIVE VEHICLE NOW CAUSE OF THIS. I HAD SENT AN E-MAIL TO YOU ON THIS ALREADY, BUT WANT TO MAKE SURE YOU GOT IT AS I HAVE THREE OTHER FRIENDS THAT TRADED IN THEIR V6 MANUAL TRANSMISSION CAMARO CAUSE OF THIS. ALL BECAUSE GM, FAILS TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE THEY ALREADY KNOW OF ISSUES FROM US V6 CAMARO OWNERS COMPLAINING. MY TWO DEALERS HAVE BEEN GREAT, BUT ONLY SO MUCH THEY CAN DO UNLESS GM ADDRESSES THIS ISSUE. IF GM, FAILS TO ADDRESS,THEIR ISSUE WITH THIS TRANSMISSION, I WILL SEE A LAWYER ABOUT THIS AND GO AFTER THEM, IT HAS BECOME A BIG SAFETY ISSUE NOW IN TRAFFIC. P.S. VEHICLE HAS WHAT GM CALL TRANSMISSION A AY6 TRANSMISSION, THAT THEY PUT IN THE V6 CAMARO WITH MANUAL TRANSMISSION

CAR MAKES CLUNKING NOISE IN THE FRONT SUSPENSION WHEN GOING OVER SMALL BUMPS AT LOW SPEED. *TR

FRONT SUSPENSION IS VERY CLUNKY GOING OVER MODERATE BUMPS. WHEN THE FRONT SUSPENSION IS REBOUNDING ONTO A LOWER SURFACE IS BANGS HARD. I HAVE PASSENGERS THAT HAVE ASKED, "WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOUR CAR?" UPON HEARING IT. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER, WHILE STILL UNDER WARRANTY. DEALERS RESPONSE IS ALL IS FINE, WE DIDN'T FIND ANY PROBLEMS. I TOLD THEM IT HAS SOMETHING WRONG BECAUSE WHAT I'M EXPERIENCING WITH IT IS DEFINITELY NOT NORMAL. *TR

I HAVE A 2010 CAMARO WITH THE AY6 MANUAL TRANSMISSION AND V6 MOTOR. I HAD THE PRESSURE PLATE BOLTS REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY AFTER MY TRANSMISSION FAILED TO SHIFT INTO FIRST,SECOND,OR ANY OF THE OTHER GEARS SUDDENLY AFTER 14,000MILES OF ADULT DRIVEN NORMAL USE..THE TECH FROM GM TOLD ME THE BOLTS WERE NOT TORQUED DOWN FROM THE FACTORY(AISIN/WARNER) AND HAD BEEN REDESIGNED BY GM.....OK. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS MATTER FURTHER I'VE FOUND THAT HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE HAVE BEEN HAVING MULTIPLE PROBLEMS WITH THIS TRANSMISSION AND THE DEALERS AND GM ARE TRYING TO IGNORE THAT THE PROBLEM EXISTS. THIS TRANSMISSION HAS A FACTORY TORQUE RATING THAT IS 273 FT LBS AND THE GM 3.6 VVT MOTOR THAT IS IN OUR CAMAROS PUTS OUT 278 FT LBS FROM THE FACTORY.SO RIGHT OFF THE BAT THE TRANS IS DESTINED TO FAIL PREMATURELY FROM THIS OBVIOUS PROBLEM AND THEY ARE TRYING TO PASS THE COST OFF TO THE CUSTOMER IN ALOT OF CASES.I WAS ONE OF THE FORTUNATE ONES WHO HAD THE FIRST PROBLEM COVERED BUT NOW IM AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR LIKE A SPORTS CAR IN FEAR OF FACING THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS IN REPAIRS DUE TO GMS IRRESPONSIBLE ACTIONS BY PLACING AN INADEQUATE TRANSMISSION INTO AN AMAZING CAR.IM SURE YOUR AWARE OF THE PROBLEM FROM THE OTHER COMPLAINTS FILED BUT I KNOW FOR A FACT THAT NOT ALL HAVE WENT THIS FAR AS TO CONTACT YOU ON THIS SITUATION. THERE ARE FOUR TSBS OUT ON THIS PRESSURE PLATE ISSUE ALONE AS WELL AS OTHER MULTIPLE PROBLEMS THAT OTHERS ARE HAVING WITH THIS TRANSMISSION AND I TRULY FEEL THIS CAN BECOME A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND A PROBLEM THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BY GENERAL MOTORS AND NOT AT THE EXPENSE OF THE PEOPLE WHO BELIEVED IN BUYING AN AMERICAN PRODUCT ONLY TO FIND OUT THAT THIS MAJOR FLAW IN PLANNING AND PURCHASING FROM AISIN/WARNER IS HAPPENING TO THE PUBLIC AND PEOPLE THROUGHOUT THE WORLD WHO PURCHASED THIS CAR. THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP AND UNDERSTANDING AND I HOPE THIS HELPS IN RESOLVING THIS PROBLEM WITH GENERAL MOTORS. *TR

2010 CAMARO V6 MANUAL TRANSMISSION. TRANSMISSION IS VERY NOTCHY, HARD FORCE SHIFT FROM 1ST TO SECOND GEAR. CLUTCH HAS STUCK TO THE FLOOR. *TR

1ST TO 2ND GEAR GRIND/BIND WITH MANUAL TRANSMISSION V6 CAMARO. HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM SINCE PURCHASING NEW AND I KNOW MANY OTHERS WITH IDENTICAL CARS WHO HAVE THE SAME ISSUE. GM REFUSES TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE, TAKING IT TO THE DEALER SOLVES NOTHING AS THEY DO NOT ACKNOWLEDGE IT. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CHEVROLET CAMARO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER HAVING THE VEHICLE IN FOR ROUTINE SERVICE, THE TECHNICIAN ADVISED THAT THE LEFT FRONT AND REAR PINS AND CALIPERS WERE WEARING THE BRAKES DOWN BY SIXTEEN PERCENT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE APPROXIMATELY 16,390. UPDATED 07/21/11 *BF THE SERVICE TECH STATED THE LEFT REAR AND LEFT FRONT BRAKES WERE WORKING AT ONLY 20%. THE TECHNICIAN STATED IT WAS DUE TO THE CONSUMER APPLYING BRAKES MORE THAN NORMAL. UPDATED 08/04/11

FRONT SUSPENSION CLUNK NOISE, WHEN GOING OVER SMALL BUMPS, SPEED BUMPS, AND EVEN PAINTED LINES IN WORN ROADS I GET A SUSPENSION NOISE LIKE SOMETHING IS LOOSE IN THE FRONT SUSPENSION.. DEALER SAYS THEY ALL DO IT, ND THAT IT IS NORMAL. *TR

WHEN DRIVING OVER ANY BUMP IN THE ROAD, FRONT END CLUNKS VERY LOUD. IT CAN BE DESCRIBED AS SOMETHING LOOSE ON THE FRONT END. SAFETY CONCERN AS I MAY LOOSE ABILITY TO CONTROL VEHICLE. SOUNDS LIKE SUSPENSION RELATED. IT IS A 2010 CAMARO I PURCHASED IN 2010 AND THE ISSUE HAS ALWAYS BEEN THERE. DEALER SEEMS NOT TO BE ABLE FIND ANYTHING WRONG. TEST DROVE ANOTHER AND SAME ISSUE. *TR

I WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH ON A COUNTY ROAD & UPON APPROACHING THE CITY LIMITS I PUT ON MY BRAKES TO SLOW DOWN & THEY FAILED TO WORK. I TRIED AGAIN SEVERAL MORE TIMES & THEY STILL FAILED TO WORK. I WAS QUICKLY APPROACHING A RED LIGHT, & SEVERAL CARS THAT WERE STOPPED AT THIS RED LIGHT, & I PUT BOTH FEET ON THE BRAKES & WAS BARELY ABLE TO CONTAIN MY CAR. IT SLOWED DOWN FINALLY, JUST INCHES AWAY FROM THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME, BUT IT WAS CONTINUOUSLY REVVING UP BY ITSELF WHILE I STILL HAD BOTH FEET ON THE BRAKES. IT WAS STILL TRYING TO ACCELERATE BY ITSELF. I PANICKED & THREW IT IN PARK & THEN IT JUST SHUT OFF BY ITSELF. I WAS ABLE TO CRANK IT AGAIN & DRIVE HOME. *TR

PASSENGER SIDE SERVICE AIR BAG LIGHT TURNS ON ANYTIME I PLACE SOMETHING ON THE PASSENGER SEAT OR WHEN SOMEONE SITS DOWN. THIS IS A MANUFACTURERS DEFECT IN THE AIRBAG OR AIRBAG SENSOR AND HAS BEEN A PROBLEM SINCE I FIRST PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. I AM CONCERNED THAT IF I HAVE AN ACCIDENT THE AIRBAGS WILL NOT DEPLOY PROPERLY.
