2010 CHEVROLET CAMARO Complaints

CAR HAS 46500 MILES AND IS STORED WINTERS. CODE P0008 TIMING CHAIN. NICE TO KNOW ALL OTHER 4.6 LITER ENGINES WERE APPLIED THE EXTENDED WARRANTY EXCEPT THE CAMARO. NOW I HAVE TO CONTEND WITH THE DEALER IN HOPES THEY WILL REPAIR UNDER THE GOODWILL ACT. I BET I STILL HAVE TO PAY. WAY TO GO GM

P0008 & P0017 ENGINE CODE ON 3.6 V 6 DIAGNOSED BY DEALER TO BE STRETCHED TIMING CHAINS. 52,724 MILES COST TO FIX $3000. OTHER GM VEHICLES WITH THE SAME ENGINE EXTENDED WARRANTY OF 10 YEARS 120,000 MILES. CAMARO NEEDS TO BE INCLUDED IN RECALL.

AIR BAGS WARNING ON DASH IS INDICATING A ISSUE WITH THE AIR BAG. CHEVROLET WANTS OVER A 1000 DOLLARS TO FIX. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND NEEDS GM TO STEP UP AND REPAIR. POTENTIAL INGURY DUE TO NO AIR BAG INFLATION AT CRASH

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE 680 FREEWAY WHEN MY GIRLFRIEND AND I HEARD ALMOST LIKE A GUNSHOT SOUND RIGHT ABOVE OUR HEADS SO WE OPENED OUR SUNROOF COVER TO FIND OUT OUR SUNROOF WAS SHATTERED. THE TINT ON MY WINDOW IS LUCKILY KEEPING IT TOGETHER FOR NOW.

IN FIRST THREE YEARS, THE ELECTRONIC IGNITION MODULE WAS REPLACED THREE TIMES. ON THE THIRD TIME, IT WAS FOUND THAT THE IGNITION WIRING HARNESS WAS NOT FOR A CAMARO. IT WAS INCORRECTLY INSTALLED AT THE FACTORY. SECONDLY, JUST THREE WEEKS AGO, FOUR OF MY CAR'S SIX FUEL INJECTORS WENT BAD. MY CAR ONLY HAD 74,000 MILES ON IT. ALL SIX INJECTORS WERE REPLACED AT MY COST OF $2812.00! OUTRAGEOUS! BOTH TIMES, MY CAR WAS BEING DRIVEN ON A CITY STREET.

THE "SERVICE AIRBAG" WARNING INDICATOR TURNS ON AND OFF RANDOMLY. SOMETIMES IT STAYS ON FOR DAYS/ WEEKS, SOMETIMES IT TURNS OF FOR A FEW MINUTES. MY VEHICLE ONLY HAS ABOUT 64K MILES ON IT, AND IT STARTED HAPPENING AT ABOUT 50K. I HAVE YET HAD IT REPAIRED AS I CAN NOT AFFORD TO PAY AL;MOST $1500 TO $1900 TO REPAIR THIS. I AM AWARE OF A CLASS ACTION AGAINST GM FOR THIS ISSUE, AND I HOPE THE PLAINTIFFS WIN AND THE SETTLEMENT CAUSES GM TO HAVE TO RECALL ALL OF THE VEHICLES AFFECTED BY THIS TO REPAIR THE ISSUE AT NO COST TO THE OWNERS, REGARDLESS OF YEARS AND MILAGE OWNED, WHETHER OR NOT THEY WERE THE ORIGINAL OWNERNER OR NOT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CHEVROLET CAMARO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TIMING BELT WAS STRETCHED AND NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THE CONTACT WAS ALSO NOTIFIED BY THE DEALER THAT THE FAILURE WAS A COMMON OCCURRENCE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 68,000.

THE ENGINE LIGHT WENT ON AND IT WAS BROUGHT IN FOR SERVICE. I WAS TOLD THE CODE P0008 MEANT THAT IT HAD A STRETCHED TIMING CHAIN WHICH WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED AND IS A VERY EXPENSIVE REPAIR. I RECENTLY FOUND OUT THAT THIS IS VERY COMMON IN OTHER CHEVY ENGINES AND THE POWER TRAIN WARRANTEE WAS EXTENDED TO COVER THESE REPAIRS IN OTHER ENGINES, BUT NOT MY CAMARO. I CURRENTLY ONLY HAVE 73K MILES AND WOULD LIKE TO SEE CHEVY FIX THE ISSUE AS IT HAS BEEN DONE WITH THE OTHER GM CARS.

MY 2010 CHEVY CAMARO HAS ONLY 14,361 MILES ON THE ODOMETER AND IS NOT SUBJECTED TO WEATHER OVER 99% OF THE TIME. A FEW MONTHS AGO I NOTICED A VERY FAINT MARK OR SCRATCH OR CRACK IN THE PASSENGER SIDE DASHBOARD OVER THE AIRBAG. IT IS BECOMING MORE PRONOUNCED AND NOW A SECOND CRACK IS FORMING. I CHECKED WITH MY LOCAL DEALER AND THEY IN TURN CHECKED WITH A GM REP. THEY ARE TELLING ME THEY WILL REPLACE IT FOR ABOUT $1250 BUT I WILL HAVE TO PAY $800 OF THE COSTS. CONSIDERING THAT I TREAT MY CAR WITH THE UTMOST CARE AND ADDING TO THAT THE FACT THAT THE INTERNET IS FILLED WITH COMPLAINTS ABOUT CRACKS OVER THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG ON 2010 CAMAROS, THIS ISSUE SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED FURTHER FOR A POSSIBLE RECALL.

MY CARS "ENGINE LIGHT" CAME ON AROUND 120,000 MILES SO I TOOK INTO THE DEALERSHIP AND IT READ A CODE OF P0008 ENGINE TIMING. THEY TOLD ME THAT IT WAS DUE TO DIRTY OIL. I BOUGHT THE CAR USED A LITTLE OVER A YEAR AGO WITH CLOSE TO 80,000 MILES ON IT AND I KEEP THE OIL CHANGED BETWEEN EVERY 3000 TO 4000 MILES. I'VE ASKED AROUND TO A FEW OTHER SHOPS THEIR OPINION AND THEY TELL ME THE SAME THING. THE PRICE IM GETTING QUOTED COUNTING PARTS AND LABOR IS CLOSE TO $1300 AND I CANT AFFORD THAT KIND OF BILL. IT APPEARS THAT IF OTHERS ARE HAVING THIS SAME ISSUE THEN A RECALL SHOULD BE BROADCAST OUT AND BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY? I'M A DIE HARD BOW TIE GUY AND ALL I'VE EVER OWNED WAS A GM CARS AND TRUCKS. I CURRENTLY HAVE MY 2010 CAMARO A 2003 CHEVY TRUCK WITH ONLY 121000 MILES AND A 1971 CHEVY TRUCK THAT IM RESTORING. IS THERE ANYWAY THAT YALL COULD DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS ISSUE EVERYONE IS STARTING TO HAVE WITH THESE? I KNOW FOR A FACT THAT ENTERPRISE CHEVROLET HAD A CAMARO IN THIS WEEK WITH THE EXACT SAME ISSUE AS WELL AS A FEW OTHERS I'VE TALKED TO. *TR
