The contact owns a 2016 Chevrolet Camaro. The contact stated that while driving over the train tracks at an undisclosed speed, the contact noticed that there was smoke and a burning odor coming through the vents. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The contact pulled over to the side of the road. The contact opened the hood and inspected the engine compartment, but the contact could not find the origin of the burning odor. The vehicle was towed to the residence, where the contact discovered that the smoke and the burning odor were coming from the starter that was 3 inches away from the exhaust manifold, by design. The contact purchased the starter from the dealer, and the contact replaced the starter; however, the failure persisted. The contact then noticed that the wires and the wiring harness of the starter were severely burned. The contact purchased the wires and the wiring harness from the dealer. The contact replaced the starter, the wires, and the wiring harness, and installed a custom-made heat shield between the starter and the exhaust manifold. Additionally, the contact stated that the steering wheel had failed to lock after turning off the vehicle. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 59,000. The VIN was not available.

The blind spot warning system stopped working, and yes it is available for inspection upon request. I have heard this leads to further electrical problems and am worried this may compromise my safety if not dealt with. The problem has not been confirmed by a dealer. The component has not been inspected. There was a warning that popped up stating “service side detection system” that appeared randomly on my drive home the other day. I had not hit anything or done anything to the car that might have caused this. After a couple of rain storms, it appears that this is directly related to water intrusion.

The transmission temperature sensor has gone bad in my 2016 Camaro ss with 6.2L engine, GM has recalled thousands of 2016 vehicles with this very issue, these transmissions have enough issues as it is, and GM knows it’s an issue or they wouldn’t have already recalled all those other 2016 vehicles. It can cause damage to the already fragile/finicky transmission in the 2016 models and other years, causing overheating of the transmission and causing the car to go into limp mode, and in my case it didn’t even throw a check engine light, I took my car to a mechanic about a different concern and he told me and showed me the code, he cleared it out and It immediately came back and still no check engine light.it’s a P0711 code, faulty/dead transmission temperature sensor. My car isn’t acting right shifting and I’ve noticed other issues, but is it that sensor or is it one of the many other issues with the 8L45 and 8L90 transmissions? So if that sensor is an issue in many other 8L90 transmissions why do they think it’s not an issue in the Camaro? You can go on any GM related forum and read all the complaints for this issue, and there are recalls about it for other GM vehicles but not Camaro. And it’s not a cheap repair, and it depends on which wiring harness that in the car to how much of the transmission has to be taken apart to repair the issue.

Before purchasing a 2016 camaro last year I took it to a Chevrolet dealership for a safety inspection with no safety concerns found and after purchasing it around 57,000 miles went to another Chevrolet dealership to diagnose any electrical concerns occurring with the car that I noticed. There was nothing found but I still noticed humming sound and let them know and they found no concerns whatsoever. The battery was replaced twice as over the course of the year the electricals decreased in power. I then notified my insurance there was an issue with the car drawing power and it would not start. Upon checking the trunk noticed water had gotten into and possibly damaged the trunk/rear fuse block. I went through my insurance to fix any body damage but no electricals were fixed based on the insurance representative declining to accept liability for the damage and upon return of my vehicle, the repair facility started the car against my wishes and the rear fuse block in the trunk sparked and caused a fire to start in the trunk that continued for about a minute or two. Upon taking it to Chevrolet this year again after this, I was charged $800 for them to not diagnose anything but to say the x-connectors were burned up in the incident as well (I said this previously as this started the fire as it carries the currents from the fuse block) and to say they cannot find the source of the water leak/entry or replace the fuse block as the x-connectors and harness for the car, the first parts needed to be repaired to establish power to the car, have been discontinued. For more details on the cause, effects, and repair steps necessary but not been able to completed by GM/Chevrolet please refer to this service bulletin that I noticed was raised after I purchased this car upon researching the issue MULTIPLE chevrolet dealerships, ignored, didn't notice, and now are saying cannot repair and should be followed up on: 18-NA-375. Car is at ~70,000 miles currently.

1: convertible top needs replacement. The glass is separating from the actual convertible top. there is also a plastic trim piece that also breaks constantly. This part could fly off with the top down. The glass could also come off causing me and others to be at risk. The dealer has confirmed the issue but wants me to pay out of pocket when my car is used but only a year old. This is not the first time I have heard people have this issue. New cars and older ones need to be recalled and they need to fix these mistakes with manufacturing. It’s unacceptable and putting lives in danger. 2: RPM will flutter / fluctuate so I’m assuming it is an electrical failure. I have no idea exactly what is wrong which puts everyone at danger. I could have a car fire one day. Or maybe the car will just die on a freeway going 65+. The dealer has inspected and acknowledged the issues. They have yet to fix the RPM issue as they couldn’t and didn’t know what was going on. I have been waiting for a part that “may or may not fix the issue” for about 5 months now. But the convertible top as well as this rpm issue needs to be a recall. It is putting countless lives in danger every day. It’s time for them to take ownership of the problems. Videos of RPM issues will not upload but I have multiple videos

Hello I’ve purchased this car from Ajs Auto inc and since purchasing it I’ve been complaining to them about my transmission and rear end I am now going on my 3rd transmission in this vehicle and I pay way to much money monthly for this to be going on and Chevy knows about the issue but refuses to do anything about and or the dealership

Every sense the car was bought from the dealership and it would rain the trunk leaks and holds water to cause electrical damage and problems. I took it back to the dealership and they said they didn’t see a problem but there was a problem. Currently I am so hurt to have a car I can’t drive under raining conditions and now my trunk smell of moldy and its problems due to electrical issues. The trunk leaked enough to cover the fuse box caused lots of electrical problems.

our insured, [XXX] , owners of the 2016 Camaro, turned in their vehicle to Atkins Kroll, Inc, Guam, due to complaints of the wiring harness within the trunk burned due to water infiltration into the trunk cavity, due to the trunk weatherstrip failing to keep out the water from the trunk. AK has determined that this is considered wear and tear. our insured advises that there are three other Camaros at AK with the same problem.

2016 CHEV CAMARO SS STARTER ISSUES. STARTER IS TOO CLOSE TO THE EXHAUST SYSTEM WHICH HEATS UP EXTREMELY HOT AND AFFECTS THE COMPONENTS IN THE STARTER AND LOCKS UP STARTER.

The RPM gauge is malfunctioning, it’s hard pin point when it exactly it happens because i could be driving one day and it would be fine but the next it would be happening. What happens with the gauge is that It jumps to high rpms without any rev sounds the meter just seems to jump like crazy, it coursed a safety concern because the first time it happened was in a freeway going around 60mph and it started to bounce a lot and braked thinking my car was revving high and almost got rear ended, i pulled over and turned my E-Lights and turned the car off and turned it back on and it was fine after that, i took it to the dealer and they said they could not find anything and that it was probably something that would go away, i left and to this day it still does it not every time but there is times it randomly jumps a lot, sometimes when I accelerate sometimes when I’m decelerating i really don’t know what causes it. The car also seems to have no lights or warning lights of what it could be no warning lights are on the dash. I bought the car used from the dealership 4/5/2022 on the way home on that day was the first time it happened.

I took my 2016 Camaro in to get checked out because bit was driving funny. Come to find out the sensor in the transmission was going out. After i put it in for the warranty, my screen , dash, and all the sound went out in my vehicle. The next day on November 27th my car battery drained out and i had to get it replaced. 2 days later on November 29th 2021 my car battery went out again and had to get another battery. So at this point something is draining the battery down so i changed the batter and noticed there was water in the trunk of my car after it rained. But didn’t think nothing of it. That same day i parked my car at work turned the car off and went inside the building. 45 mins later they said my car was on fire from the trunk. The fire department came and put the fire out… the fire and smoke cleared and the thing that caught on fire was the fuse box which is in the trunk and everything around it. I took my car to the Chevy dealership clay Cooley Chevrolet in Dallas Texas and they couldn’t figure out why it caught on fire and that everything was too burnt up to tell what happened alls they know is that the fuse box shorted out. I took my complaints to GM and they did an investigation. It took 2 months and i did not get a rental till 3 days before they completed my investigation and they didn’t search for one i had to go look for one . Then they told me that they are not going to help with the vehicle because the fire was located in the “luggage compartment space”. They said you can’t exactly tell where the fire came from because the fire burned everything up. Today they are telling me to give the rental back after just getting it 3 days ago and I’m without a car.

Power steering locked up and would not allow me to turn

Jun 14, 2021

Around 3/2/2021 I received a dash warning light for the electronic parking brake indicating some form of malfunction. The electronic parking brake began to stay on once set and when I would accelerate a bit, it would release. Thereafter the rear brakes and calipers completely locked up while sitting in my garage and would not move. I had to have it towed out of my garage and to a Chevrolet dealership for repair. The Chevrolet dealer repaired it after approximately one week or more and five or six days later the indicator light returned stating electronic parking brake malfunction so I took it back to the Chevrolet dealership and they repaired again. I had also contacted the dealership I purchased from in Tennessee and made them aware of the problem and they agreed to pay for the repair because my warranty did not cover this repair because it happened to be from prior damage to the car before i purchased it. After speaking in great detail with the Chevrolet dealer, it was explained to me that this is beyond repair at this point if I were to have any further issues with this and strongly recommended having this replaced and that it is currently unsafe considering this could happen again including while I am driving and could result in to an accident and possible injury to myself and others. I then hired an attorney to dispute this with the dealership I purchased from and they on many occasions declined any compensation for this. It is very pricy and the salesperson had told me at one point the car tire had had a blowout and defected a wiring issue with the electronic parking brake and that the switch had been replaced and that the side indicator lights were not working off and on. He assured me that this had been fixed, meaning it only needed a switch. The whole Body Wiring Harness was very badly effected and there are currently seventeen wires that are not secure in which control a lot of the car. I did also retrieve the service records.

DURING ACCELERATION AND DECELERATION, THE 8-SPEED AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSIONS SEEMS TO JUMP AS IF IT IS MISSING GEARS. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUE FOR SOME MONTHS. THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED BRAND NEW IN 2016 WITH ONLY 12 MILES. DIAGNOSTIC TESTING HAS BEEN PERFORMED AND NOTHING HAS BEEN FOUND. HOWEVER, THIS ISSUE STILL PERSISTS. ALSO, THE BACKUP CAMERA, RADIO, AND ENTIRE MYLINK SYSTEM WENT OUT. AFTER DIAGNOSTICS, IT WAS CONFIRMED THAT THE HMI MODULE WAS BAD--THE CAR WAS NOT 3 YEARS OLD AT THE TIME. UNFORTUNATELY, THIS IS A $1000 DEALERSHIP REPAIR TICKET. GM HAS STATED THAT THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO. ALSO, OTHERS IN THE DEALERSHIP AS WELL AS OUTSIDE LICENSED REPAIR SHOPS SAID THEY HAD THE SEEN THE SAME ISSUE WITH THE CAMARO.

WHEN DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEED THE COMPUTER GENERATES A MESSAGE: REDUCED PERFORMANCE, REDUCE CLUTCH USE. WHEN THIS HAPPENS THE POWER OF THE ENGINE IS REDUCED TO 1/3 OR TO TWO CYLINDERS, AND THE SPEEDOMETER GOES FLYING ALL AROUND, VARYING BY ABOUT 25 MPH UP AND DOWN. WE HAVE TAKEN THE CAR FOUR TIMES TO THE CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP AND HAD THE CLUTCH AND FLYWHEEL REPLACED, TIGHTENED, ETC., AND THEY HAVE REPROGRAMMED SEVERAL THINGS IN COMPUTER. TWO SEPARATE CASES HAVE BEEN FILED WITH GM AND TO THIS POINT THEY HAVE NOT FIXED THE PROBLEM. THE TRANSMISSION IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY, BUT THEY SAY ITS NOT THAT. THIS CREATES AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS DRIVING SITUATION.

'INCIDENT #1: ON JUNE 15, 2018, AFTER MAKING MY NORMAL COMMUTE TO AND FROM WORK, I ARRIVED HOME. LATER THAT EVENING, WHEN I TRIED TO START MY CAR, I WAS NOT ABLE TO START IT AT ALL. I WAS UNABLE TO FIGURE OUT WHAT THE ISSUE WAS AND HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP. IT TURNED OUT THAT THE ISSUE WAS THE STARTER - AN ISSUE THAT SHOULD DEFINITELY NOT NEED TO BE OF CONCERN TO A NEW CAR OWNER. WHILE I WAS PROVIDED WITH A LOANER CAR, I WAS HIGHLY INCONVENIENCED DURING MY FATHER'S DAY WEEKEND. 'INCIDENT #2: WHILE DRIVING CAR TO AN APPOINTMENT ON THURSDAY, JUNE 21, 2018, THE GAS PEDAL GOT STUCK AND I COULD NOT STOP THE CAR. I REPEATEDLY TRIED TO APPLY BRAKES BUT THIS DID NOT WORK. TO AVOID CRASHING, RISKING MY SAFETY AND THE SAFETY OF THE OTHER ROAD USERS, I HAD TO MAKE A QUICK DECISION. THIS DECISION WAS FOR ME TO KICK THE GAS PEDAL TO BREAK IT. IN ORDER TO DRIVE THE CAR TO A SAFE LOCATION, I LITERALLY HAD TO USE AN UMBRELLA IN PLACE OF THE GAS PEDAL TO GIVE POWER TO THE CAR.

2016 CAMARO 2LT RS WOULD NOT START 11.23.2017. AFTER CHECKING THE BATTERY COMPARTMENT, WATER WAS FOUND BELOW THE TRUNK DECK LID. DRIED THE AREA OUT AND WAS ABLE TO JUMP START VEHICLE. DROVE 29 MILES AND AS I NEARED MY DESTINATION, YOU COULD SMELL SMOKE. OPENED UP THE TRUNK AND FOUND SMOKE PLUS MELTED AND SINGED FUSES THAT POTENTIALLY COULD HAVE CAUGHT FIRE. VEHICLE TOWED TO CAPITAL AUTO GROUP 11.24.17. ADVISED DEALER THAT WE WOULD ESCALATE DUE TO SAFETY CONCERNS, BUT AUTHORIZED REPAIRS. DEALERSHIP LATER SAID THEY REVIEWED WITH GM AND IT DID NOT QUALIFY FOR GM CUSTOMER GOODWILL PROGRAM. THEY REPAIRED THE WIRING AND THEN CONCLUDED THAT THE WATER LEAK WAS CAUSED BY A DEFECTIVE TRUNK SEAL. REPAIRS WERE COMPLETED 12.26.2017. ASKED THE MANAGER TO RETURN OUR CALL, WHICH NEVER HAPPENED. ON 1.30.2018, WE CALLED GM AND OPENED A CASE WITH THEM. GM ADVISED THAT THE DEALERSHIP DID NOT FOLLOW PROTOCOL AND GM HAS NO RECORD OF THE DEALERSHIP NOTIFYING THEM THE VEHICLE FUSES WERE MELTED. ON 3.7.2018, CHECKED STATUS OF CLAIM WITH GM AND FOUND THAT THEY CLOSED THE CASE. THEY STATED THAT WHEN THEY CALLED THE DEALERSHIP, THEY WERE TOLD THE REPAIRS HAD BEEN COMPLETED, SO NO FURTHER INVESTIGATION WOULD WAS NEEDED. I ASKED MORE THAN ONCE IF THEY WERE NOT CONCERNED WITH VEHICLE SAFETY AND CARS POTENTIALLY CATCHING FIRE. THEY STATED THAT THE REPAIRS HAD BEEN COMPLETED AND THEY WERE NOT INVESTIGATING FURTHER, EVEN THOUGH CAPITOL AUTO GROUP DID NOT FOLLOW GM PROTOCOL ON A SAFETY ISSUE. I EVEN STATED 'SO YOU ARE GOING TO WAIT FOR VEHICLES TO CATCH FIRE BEFORE THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN FOR GM' AND RECEIVED THE SAME RESPONSE. I LET THEM KNOW THAT A CLAIM WOULD BE FILED WITH NHTSA SO THIS COULD BE INVESTIGATED. VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED 01.19.16 AND WAS LESS THAN TWO YEARS OLD WHEN THIS OCCURRED. CUSTOMER RETAINED MELTED FUSES, PHOTOS DEALERSHIP PROVIDED AND THE REPAIR RECEIPTS.
