2016 CHEVROLET CAMARO Complaints

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON BUT THE CHEVROLET ENGINEERS COULD NOT DETERMINE THE MEANING OF THE CODE. THEY SAID THAT "FOR THE 2015 & 2016, THEY PLACED A NEW CODE WHICH COULD MEAN A LEAK IN BETWEEN THE ENGINE AND EXHAUST. THEY KEPT MY CAR FOR MORE THAN A WEEK BUT COULD NOT DETERMINE WHAT'S GOING ON AND NOBODY, INCLUDING THE CORPORATE ENGINEERS COULD FIX IT. I DEMANDED A VEHICLE REPLACEMENT BEC. IT'S JUST A 2000 MILE CAR AND I ONLY HAD IT SINCE MAY2016. BUT GM CORPORATE KEPT THEIR EYES SHUT TO MY PLIGHT AND JUST TOLD ME TO TAKE HOME MY CAR. THEY SAID THAT THEU WOULD CALL ME IF THEY FIND OUT THE MEANING OF THE CODE.

ENGINE CRANKSHAFT BEGAN COMING APART WITHOUT WARNING, PURCHASED 2016 SS, DROVE IT 6MO AND 7,000MI, NO WARNING LIGHTS OR SIGNS, JUST EXCESSIVE VIBRATION WHILE COASTING ON THE FREEWAY. ENGINE IS CURRENTLY BEING "REPLACED", CONSUMERS ARE NOT BEING NOTIFIED OF MAJOR LT1 ENGINE FAILURES....NO WORD FROM GM FINANCIAL ABOUT THE CAR'S STATUS AFTER 30 DAYS.....NOW BY CA LAW A LEMON......

COMING FROM BEHIND THE REAR SEAT ARE TWO DISTINCT SOUNDS - ONE IS A CRACKING/BUZZING THAT IS NOT AN AUDIO NOISE. IT IS A LOOSE PANEL, OR A RESULT OF THE REAR PANEL RUBBING UP AGAINST THE REAR WINDOW. THE SECOND SOUND IS A QUIET AND CONSISTENT SOUND COMING FROM INSIDE THE TRUNK. IT CAN BE HEARD IF GOING OVER 20 MPH AND DOES NOT STOP. I HAVE HAD A DEALER LOOK AT THIS ISSUE 4 TIMES, AND THEY CANNOT RESOLVE IT.

PURCHASED 2016 CHEVROLET CAMARO ON 6/18/2016 FEW DAYS AFTER THE ENGINE WAS RUNNING VERY ROUGH, GRINDING NOISE, TRANSMISSION SHIFTING HARD, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND SPEED REDUCED TO 5 MPH SHOWED ON DISPLAY. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON SINCE THEN, I BROUGHT TO DEALER ON 7/1/2016 AND THE SERVICE MECHANIC TOOK BACK TO CHECK CODES AND INFORMED ME THAT NUMEROUS ERROR CODES WERE DETECTED AND TOLD ME TO GO AHEAD AND TAKE VEHICLE HOME BECAUSE IT WAS A HOLIDAY WEEKEND AND TO RETURN ON TUESDAY 7/5/2016 TO BE INSPECTED FOR REPAIR.

THERE IS AN THICK AND STIFF ELECTRICAL CABLE THAT LOOPS VERY LOW IN FRONT OF THE TOP OF THE CLUTCH PEDAL. THE TOP OF MY FOOT EASILY CATCHES ON THIS CABLE WITH MY HEEL FULLY ON FLOOR OF THE VEHICLE. THIS PREVENTED ME FROM FULLY COMPRESSING THE CLUTCH CAUSING MY CAR TO STALL IN CROSS TRAFFIC.
