2013 CHEVROLET CAMARO Complaints

I HAVE CONTACTED THE DEALER AT 1575 86TH STREET IN BROOKLYN, NY IN REGARDS TO THE LETTER I RECEIVED FOR THE RECALL OF CHEVROLET CAMARO VEHICLES, 2013 MODEL YEARS. THE RECALL IS FOR THE IGNITION KEY THAT CAN CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR FATALITY. I HAVE CONTACTED THEM NUMEROUS TIMES AND WE ARE YET TO EVEN HEAR BACK FROM THEM. THIS IS A HUGE LIABILITY TO ANYONE DRIVING THIS CAR. THE GM SAFETY RECALL NUMBER IS 14294. WHEN I CALLED IN OCTOBER THEY SAID ONLY 2 WEEKS TO ORDER THE REPLACEMENT AND SCHEDULE THE APPOINTMENT. I CALLED AGAIN IN NOVEMBER AND THEY STILL DID NOT HAVE THE REPLACEMENT PART AND PLACED ANOTHER ORDER. NOW IT IS MORE THAN A MONTH LATER AND I STILL DO NOT HEAD BACK FROM THEM. I CALLED TODAY AND THEY ARE GIVING ME THE RUN AROUND AND SUGGESTED THEY WILL CALL ME BACK. I PURCHASED MY CAR AT THIS DEALERSHIP AND I FEEL THIS WAS A HUGE MISTAKE. PLEASE ASSIST IN THIS MATTER. I AM TALL AND BIG, MY LEGS COME CLOSE TO THE IGNITION. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE. IT IS UNACCEPTABLE TO WAIT OVER A MONTH TO HEAR BACK FROM THE DEALER IN A MATTER SO SERIOUS. *TR

I PURCHASE A NEW 2013 CAMARO FOR SON EARLIER THIS YEAR. THIS CAR HAS FEWER THAN 15K MILES AND EARLIER THIS MONTH MY SON WAS MAKING A LEFT TURN IN A NEIGHBORHOOD AND ON THE STEERING WHEEL RETURNING BACK TO CENTER, THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED THEN HE HEARD A SNAP WHICH RESULTED IN HIM HITTING THE CURB. THE SNAPPING SOUND WAS PROBABLY THE SOUND OF THE RIGHT CONTROL ARM SNAPPING IN HALF AND THE BENDING OF THE TIE ROD. I FILED A CLAIM WITH GM AND THEY DECLINED ALL CLAIMS EVEN WITH THE MANY RECALLS ON GM CARS INCLUDING THE CAMARO HAVING STEERING WHEEL LOCKING ISSUES. I COULD HAVE LOST MY SON AND I'M SIMPLY ASKING THAT GM COVER THE REPAIRS. THIS HAS BEEN VERY DISAPPOINTING AND STRESSFULLY ON MY FAMILY. *JS

WE RECEIVED THE LETTER THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON OUR ZL1 CAMARO. AS IT IS STATED IN THE LETTER "...YOUR GM DEALER WILL REMOVE THE KEY FROM THE FLIP KEY TRANSMITTER...YOU WILL BE PROVIDED WITH 2 NEW KEYS..." THIS DOES NOT MAKE IT CLEAR THAT WE WOULD NO LONGER HAVE A FLIP KEY NOR THAT WERE GOING TO SAW OFF OUR OLD KEY. IF WE HAD KNOWN THIS WE WOULDN'T HAVE DONE IT. THE DEALER'S SERVICE DEPARTMENT DID NOT MAKE CLEAR WHAT WAS BEING DONE EITHER. WE DO NOT LIKE THAT WE NO LONGER HAVE OUR FLIP KEY. WE REALIZE THAT IT WAS UNSAFE IN SOME CASE SOMEWHERE BUT WE HAVE NEVER BUMPED IT WITH OUR KNEE. WE TRIED TO GET THE DEALER TO PUT IT BACK THE WAY IT WAS BUT THEY TOLD US THEY HAD ALREADY DESTROYED THE OLD KEY. I'M WRITING THIS IN HOPES THAT YOU WILL BE ABLE TO COME UP WITH A BETTER SOLUTION. HAVING THE FLIP KEY WAS ONE OF THE PERKS OF HAVING A CAMARO. *TR

CAR WOULD NOT SHIFT INTO 1ST GEAR. CAR IS 6 SPEED MANUAL V-6 MODEL. REPEATEDLY TRIED SHIFTING INTO 1ST GEAR AT STOPLIGHT. TURNED CAR OFF AND STARTED AGAIN. TRIED SHIFTING INTO 3RD AND REVERSE, STILL WOULD NOT SHIFT INTO 1ST. THIS CAUSED A SAFETY CONCERN AS CARS STARTED COMING UP TO REAR OF CAR SINCE LIGHT TURNED GREEN WHILE TRYING TO SHIFT THE CAR INTO 1ST. HAD TO START TAKE-OFF IN 2ND GEAR, STALLING CAR. THIS HAS OCCURRED MANY MORE TIMES. AFTER EVERY INCIDENT AND REPORTING OF PROBLEM TO DEALER, DEALER STATED THAT WAS NORMAL OPERATION FOR THE CAR. THEY INSPECTED CAR 4 TIMES AND THEY ALWAYS STATE "NORMAL OPERATION". CAR ALSO INTERMITTENTLY GRINDS GEARS BETWEEN 1ST AND SECOND GEAR. CAR IS NOW AT DEALER AWAITING INSPECTION BY FACTORY REPRESENTATIVE. CAR IS A DANGER TO MYSELF, MY FAMILY AND THE DRIVING AND PASSENGER PUBLIC. GM IS WELL AWARE OF THIS DESIGN FLAW AND THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF ONLINE POSTS DESCRIBING THE SAME EXACT ISSUE THAT MY CAR HAS. PLEASE HELP! *TR
