The car powered off on me while driving on the interstate causing an extremely dangerous situation for me and other drivers without any warning, no signs the vehicle abruptly stopped I coasted to the side and avoided traffic and started right up but drove rough. It’s fuel and fluids in the car and no check engine lights were on.

Torck converter gets stuck in off mode and it stops on highway it stops you have to cut it off and cut it back on then it will drive and the car shutters to when driving and cranking i been having the same issues sense 2015
I got my car back from the local dealership after they replaced my motor then 2 weeks later to the day my husband was backing in our driveway and the shifter went in reverse but the car wouldn't. So badically the vehicle rolls whild in park. The dealership said this couldn't possibly be them so it has to be a defective. My car only has 64,000 miles on it. They replaced the part, a Transmission control lever, at my expense of $962.59. This is overwhelming considering the expense of the new motor at 64,000 miles, which is absurd. Thank you for your time.
The radio was making loud popping electrical sounds and the instrument panel screen turned off. Also, while shifting the stereo continued to go off, and the turning signal chimes did not work . I took the vehicle to mechanic and was told that the entire stereo system was the problem and need to be replaced.. The failure had been reoccurring while driving. The manufacturer wasnt notified.. The vehicle has not been repaired vehicles was also taken to a local dealership for a second opinion and was told that the stereo wiring system has completely failed and the entire system needs to replace with a new dash kit and stereo!
2015 Chevrolet Camaro , having malt issues with the ignition switch or solenoid . It will not release the key when put into park. Key will stay stuck for HOURS and will result in a dead battery. I have been dealing with this for months on end. I can’t shirt to fix this even this is a common issue with other Chevys. The dealership advised this should be under recall
Check engine light is on. High pressure fuel pump issue. Also, key keeps getting stuck I the ignition at random times after parking.
I have purchased a 2015 Chevrolet Camaro and it has become obvious that there is an electrical issue that was not previously disclosed by the dealership. The radio and air conditioning shut off randomly while driving and it is accompanied by a loud popping sound. In addition, when pressing on the brake or using the right turn signal, the radio will also shut down completely, while the air conditioning is making a loud rumbling noise. This happens frequently and there is also a constant blinking in the lights on the front of the radio. This appears to be an electrical issue and the safety concerns are based on the premise that it can be reproduced by stepping on the brake or using the turn signal. Each of these need to be in proper working condition in order to be considered safe on the road. I am writing as after going to several shops thinking it was an issue with the radio itself, I was advised that this is a known issue with the Chevrolet Camaro. There are countless posts online with other Camaro owners complaining of the same symptoms and this defect should likely be included in a recall or repairs covered by the manufacturer. Please look into my concerns.
The convertible top on this car is up and secure but the information system says it's not secure. In this situation the trunk will not open and the top not secure warning with a alarm bell goes off. GM is aware of the issue and has done nothing. The most often reported is a bad switch for the top latch. The switch is no longer available through GM. So how can I get it fixed?
Key continuously gets stuck in the ignition and will not come out until approximately 30 minutes. Safety of person and vehicle was at risk due to extreme heat condition and potential for theft. Local dealership says it is a wiring issue. After researching it is a common, persistent complaint with 2015 vehicle owners. Also, there are numerous videos in which to resolve the issue by detaching the wires from the yellow box under the steering wheel. No warning lights occurred. Would get stuck briefly prior to the 30 minute period, but would reset after putting gears in neutral or drive, then park
Key stick in ignition

The key is getting stuck in the ignition and is known as a recall but it’s saying not for this car. It’s expensive I don’t trust anyone with my car and this is stopping me from doing normal things for the day and night activities.
This is a very know common within the 2015 Camaros. The ignition key always gets stuck when put in park. Many believe it is due to gearshift button getting stuck. There has been recalls on this in many states.
Driving in extreme cold and heat conditions and the heater would not heat nor would the air conditioner blow cool air. The window would not defrost making visibility impossible during heavy rain and snow. Nearly recked due to heater and air not working. Had vehicle trouble to dealer and discovered blend door to air conditioner /heater is faulty. there was a recall in 2019 for this part on 2015 Camaro yet I am told by GM my vin is not covered. My car is not safe to drive in extreme heat due to the possibility of heat stroke or exhaustion nor in inclimate weather due to visibility issues. GM needs to add my vin to the 2019 recall due to the highly dangerous possibility of bodily injury from the faulty blend door. In addition, the key fab gets in the way of leg room causing the car to shut off when driving.
I was recently involved in an auto accident and my Chevy Camaro was totaled. I was hit on the right passenger fender/tire side area. My air bags did not deploy and i feel that they should have been deployed with the impact that my vehicle took. Component - Airbags Safety - Airbags did not deploy to prevent injury Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer - Yes, Called Chevy & NHTSA on 04/16/24 Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? - No, Not yet. Sitting in initial spot after auto accident. Non Drivable Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? - No. No Warning Lights, or Indicators stating air bag failure.
The stereo system in this car controls alot of the electrical system. For a while it would come on and off now just off. It will not alert you if you forget to fasten seat belt, or if you forget keys in ignition . Defrost has warm air on one side cold on other no matter what settings are on . This causes windshield to fog up horribly and limits vision. It does not make sound when blinkers are on are left on after turning. So you can be driving forward and not know blinker is on giving other drivers the impression you are turning. I've seen videos where drivers are removing stereo and cutting white wire which says stereo comes back on when wire is cut. But it also disables Hazzard lights. Now your in the dark changing a flat and you have no Hazzard lights , but your stereo works very dangerous. This has got to be some sort of wiring issue which also make me fear a potential fire Hazzard
On Sunday, September 10th, The key got stuck in the ignition and would not come out. The car was on and it could not turn off. The car ran for approximately an hour. I had to pull the car out of the garage so that I would not die from carbon dioxide poisoning. It was on Sunday so I could not drive over to the dealership for help. I had to go on YouTube to see how to remove the key out of a 2015 Camaro that will not turn off. After watching numerous videos from random people, I saw a comment where you can remove one of the fuses for the ignition. This appears to be a problem with this model and make according to YouTube and needs to be addressed due to the risk of carbon dioxide exposure or running out of gas and causing engine damage
The A/C blows warm air because the air box used to control the A/C was made with a flimsy part. The part is cheap to replace, but the repair is over $4,000 because of the vehicle’s design. The A/C is controlled by an air box under the dash board but the box cannot be worked on without first removing the dash board and the dash cannot be worked on without removing the windshield. I was told that there was nothing I could have done to create or prevent the problem, it’s just not a sturdy material used. And there is nothing that can be done to prevent this from reoccurring, which would be another $4,000+. In Fresno’s over 110 degree summer heat, driving around without an A/C is a health concern. Also, the vehicle won’t release the key from the ignition when it is turned off. I have to wait up to a minute for the car to release it.
2015 Chevy Camaro Convertible - Consumer is asking for help in finding a dealership that will correct the problem with the key fob. Refers to Recall # N192223230- Incorrect Service Ignition Key
Radio keeps turning on and off by itself with a high volume so annoying and distracting. Even if I turned the volume all way down it will shut off then turn back on with high volume! Also radio flashes after turning the car off.
I have an ongoing issue with my key not coming out of the ignition when in park. Nothing appears out of the normal. Several vehicle owners appear to have the same issue and have taken this to the dealer to be advised it would cost hundreds of dollars. The key not coming out of the ignition poses a security concern because it is unclear if it is the ignition switch or actually the shifter. If the vehicle is not truly in park, will the vehicle roll and injure someone? -or- If someone is in danger, how do you quickly escape from your car without your keys? My keys are a form of protection and my house keys are attached so now an intruder will have access to my home if they know where I live. GM has already had recalls on other vehicles for this same issue. I feel GM should cover this vehicle and year too, especially since there are so many.

Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) stopped working. During a panic stop on a freeway, I was cut off by a van. The rear wheels locked. The Dealer charged $200 to restore the system. Then, a few months later, it happened again. The Dealer comped the repair. However, they said the car needs to be driven more. A safety system's functionality should not rely on the frequency of driving. This is a serious design flaw warranting a recall.
Every once in awhile, the ignition key will not turn off to the steering lock position. Leaving the key in Accessory position. This defect makes the key impossible to remove. The defect in the 2015 Camaro has been documented in many Automotive & Camaro forums, but GM denies that there is a problem. GM had a similar problem in 2.2 million cars; Models with a key-sticking issue, AN says, include the 2005-2010 Cobalt, 2006-2011 Chevy HHR, 2006-2010 Pontiac Solstice, 2007-2010 Pontiac G5, 2005-2006 Pontiac G4/Pursuit, 2007-2010 Saturn Sky and 2003-2007 Saturn Ion.

Key gets stuck in cylinder when turning ignition switch to off. Cylinder will not turn fully to off position therefore locking the key in the cylinder. This has been reported hundreds of times by other customers.
Please for the love of god make Chevy recall the 5th Gen camaro or 2010-2015 AC blend door mines been broken ever since I’ve owned the car and every camaro owner I talk with has the same issue.
The blend door is broken. I have little air conditioning. No heat. No defrost.
In regards to my electrical system - Issue #1 - once I place the car in park the key won't turn all the way back to come out of the ignition switch. Most often I have to take the care out of park and back or jam the car into park for it to turn all the way to get the key out. Issue #2 - while sitting at a light my car tend to shake as if it's about to cut off. On a couple of times the Service Stabili Trak light, engine light, traction control and two other tire lights all come on and I seem to lose power when I get on the gas. By the time I get it to the shop they don't find the code that sets off these lights.
The steering wheel I have for starters, is not the correct one that is suppose to be with the vehicle. It should say “Camaro” on the center of the steering wheel instead of having a Chevrolet logo on it. It’s also not symmetrical to the vehicle interior, it’s too big for where it is placed and doesn’t match up with the drive train. It poses a risk because it starts to shake after I go a certain speed and is also wobbly when I first start driving like something is loose inside of it. The seats also are not the original seats that the vehicle came with and have been replaced by idk what brand it is but it’s not a safe one because there are visible wires underneath the seat that aren’t covered and it causes me back pain after driving for the smallest amount of time. I have to reach far back to retrieve my seatbelt and it’s very inconvenient due to the strain it puts on me. I bought the car from this allegiances motors place and they allegedly inspected it and also did a safety inspection but they have not yet provided me with a legal safety inspection sticker and when I went in person about the issues I’m having they said buying was wrong with the vehicle. They coerced me in to signing a paper stating the airbags being deployed were unknown so I’m possibly driving around with no air bags in the vehicle which is highly alarming ne has I do drive with children in the backseat. It seems like all the components are slowly malfunctioning especially when I do not respond to the text messages of the car salesmen I bought the car from. They won’t provide me with any information regarding the air bags and let me know what they’re going to do in regards to fixing the visible wiring problem and ensuring I’m driving around with air bags that haven’t been deployed. Also, when I put my vin number in the system it showed me a picture of a convertible which is also pictured on the owners manual that came with the car, and it’s not a convertible. It’s just a regular ol coupe.
The tires spun out of control while going the speed limit and wearing a seatbelt. The brakes ultimately failed. The car had no functional safety features, and I couldn't control the steering. It went airborne and rolled over. The airbags failed to deploy after hitting a tree. My safety and others were put at risk, and I almost died from the accident. I suffer from life-threatening/altering injuries.
The electrical does not work. The radio and the turning signal alert do not work. I took to the shop and they could not fix the issue.
The contact owns a 2015 Chevrolet Camaro. The contact stated while driving 35 MPH, the right turn signal was engaged and made an abnormal ticking sound. The contact also stated that the radio inadvertently made a loud popping electrical sound and the instrument panel screen turned off. There were no warning lights illuminated. The dealer was not notified of the failure. The contact stated that the failure had been reoccurring while driving. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and advised the contact that they would follow up with NHTSA. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 59,500.
The key will not come out of ignition once car is in park. In the event of an emergency, driver no longer has access to keys, driver is unable to leave car, battery drains (electric issues are already an issue that GMC will not address) and in the event driver is inexperienced at mechanics- this could lead to multifactor injuries. Issue has been reported in other make/models for YEARS, GMC refuses to address issue. In order to bypass this issue, owners must take apart steering column, release the Anti-Theft wire that enters the seliniod. Dealerships charge hundreds of dollars, sometimes never addressing the issue, to correct this problem. This key drains the electrical system, which will essentially cause complete failure to the car or a fire- which are happening more and more. A parasitic battery drain occurs due to this issue, resulting in consumers attaching trickle charging units (recommended by dealers). Instead of correcting the anti-theft wiring issues along with the switch blade key fob, a single key was issued along with the defective key fob and dealerships are asking owners to replace their "shifting units" to correct the issue of the key not coming out of the ignition. This is a safety issue that will lead to death; a car fire, a home emergency, a mechanical necessity require immediate need for keys, an internal combustion, a car parked in neutral or a car left running to avoid the hassle of not getting the keys out of the ignition.
This is the SECOND time that my "Serivce Stabilitrak" along with the traction light has gone off and the engine light blinks constantly, within less than a 6 month period. I paid almost $900, with a dealership coupon, at Grieco Chervolet in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, for the exact same problem, less than 6 months ago; now the same issue occurred today, on my way to work. Uncontrollable shaking and speed. I see LOTS of complaints for this issue on this website, so I am NOT sure how there is NOT a safety recall for this vehicle. No one seems to take this concern seriously, until deaths are reported, I suppose. Shameful! This car is going to cause an injury or fatality, if some agency does not look into this concern, that many Chervy Camaro owners, are reporting.
I was driving down the highway and my rear bumper cover just ripped off on the driver side my sidemarker light went flying into traffic and my bumper was hanging on because of my license plate it was dragging on the ground by the license plate when it came off my car pulled to the left so bad that I thought my suspension system had given out I pulled over and found my bumper cover destroyed so I Called my insurance company and they said it sounds like a maintenance issue and they will NOT cover it nor is it insurance I pay for full coverage collision and comprehensive now I'm stuck with a bill that is ridiculously high

I WAS AT A STOP LIGHT AT A BUSY INTERSECTION. ONCE TRAFFIC WAS CLEAR, I MADE A RIGHT TURN INTO THE RIGHT LANE. I BEGAN TO PICK UP SPEED COMING OUT OF THE TURN AND THE ENGINE BEGAN TO REV. BEFORE IT COULD REACH 1000 RPM, THE ENGINE SHUT OFF COMPLETELY. I WAS ABLE TO COAST TO PARKING LOT. THE POWER STEERING HAD DISENGAGED AS WELL SO TURNING BECAME VERY HARD. THERE WAS NO NOTICABLE ISSUES AS I HAD DRIVEN EARLIER THAT DAY. GAS TANK WAS HALF FULL.
MY RADIO HAS BEEN CUTTING ON AND OFF AND WILL SHUT OFF IF I PRESS THE BREAKS, TURN ON BRIGHT LIGHTS, SHUT THE DOOR, OR ANY JOLTING MOVEMENTS. IT WON'T PLAY THE BLINKER SOUND EITHER IF THE RADIO IS CUT OFF. SOMETIMES IT WILL MAKE A LOUD POP OR SCRATCH NOISE. IT WILL ALSO FLASH ON AND OFF REPEATEDLY AND THAT IS DISTRACTING AT NIGHT. I'VE LOOKED INTO IT AND OTHERS HAVE THESE PROBLEMS.
MY CAMARO BEGAN SHAKING VIOLENTLY WHEN THE CAR WAS STATIONARY. I THOUGHT THAT MAYBE THE CAR WAS COLD DUE TO ME NOT REALLY DRIVING DURING COVID,SO AFTER LETTING THE VEHICLE WARM UP, I DROVE AWAY. AS I DROVE DOWN MY STREET, THE TRANSMISSION LIGHT, AS WELL AS ALL OF THE TRACTION, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL LIGHTS CAME ON. WHILE CONTINUING TO DRIVE, THE CAR BEGAN TO MAKE HARD JERKING MOTIONS. I SEE THAT THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS FOR THE ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL, ELECTRICAL AND POWER TRAIN COMPLAINTS ON THE NHTSA WEBSITE DEALING WITH THIS SAME CONCERN (AS WELL AS THE KEY GETTING STUCK IN THE IGNITION WHICH IS ALSO A COMPLAINT. I WANT IT DOCUMENTED JUST IN CASE AN ACCIDENT, OR GOD FORBIDS A FATALITY HAPPENS, THEY WILL HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED PRIOR. THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED. PLEASE SHARE WITH THE MANUFACTURER AND/OR CHEVROLET

KEY BECOMES STUCK IN IGNITION AFTER TURNING OFF, PUTTING IN PARK AND CANNOT BE TAKEN OUT
THE KEY GETS STUCK IN THE IGNITION. I HAVE TO TURN THE ENGINE BACK ON AND PUT THE CAR IN DRIVE, AND THEN PARK AND CONTINUE DOING THAT PROCESS REPEATEDLY UNTIL THE IGNITION UNLOCKS AND FREES THE KEY. THIS HAPPENS ALMOST EVERY DAY.
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.
