2010 CHEVROLET CAMARO Complaints

2010 CHEVROLET CAMARO. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO GM IGNITION RECALL* THE CONSUMER STATED THE REPAIR WAS NOT ACTUALLY A FIX AT ALL. PORTIONS OF THE KEY WERE REMOVED AND A SEPARATE KEY WAS ATTACHED BY TWO SMALL KEYS RINGS. THE IGNITION WAS NOT REPAIRED IN ANY WAY. *JB

I NOTICED COOLANT LEAKING INTO PASSENGER FLOORBOARD. THE CAR WAS TAKEN INTO THE DEALERSHIP AND IT WAS DIAGNOSED WITH A LEAKING HEATER CORE. I STARTED DOING SOME RESEARCH AND FOUND THAT SEVERAL OTHER CAMARO OWNERS HAVE HAD THIS SAME ISSUE, AND DURING MY RESEARCH FOUND A GM TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN FOR THIS HEATER CORE FAILURE. (# PIP-5457A) THE DEALERSHIP IS WANTING TO CHARGE FOR THE NEW HEATER CORE, A WINDSHIELD AND LABOR. *TR

MY SERVICE AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON SO I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP TO GET IT LOOKED AT. THEY TOLD ME IT IS JUST A SENSOR AND YOU NEED TO PAY $900 FOR US TO FIX IT. I DON'T HAVE $900. ABOUT A MONTH LATER I NOTICE MY DASH ON THE PASSENGER SIDE STARTING TO CRACK A BIT AND THEN A FEW WEEKS LATER A SEE MY DASH IS NOW STARTING TO BULGE AND IT HAS A OUTLINE WHERE MY AIR BAG IS. I AM TERRIFIED THAT IT IS GOING TO DEPLOY WHILE I'M DRIVING AND MY WIFE OR A CHILD IS IN THE SEAT WHEN IT BLOWS. I HAVE READ NUMEROUS BLOGS CONCERNING THE EXACT SAME ISSUE WITH THE AIR BAGS AND I CAN'T FIGURE OUT WHY THIS IS NOT ALREADY A RECALL ISSUE. *TR

PREPARING TO MAKE A LEFT TURN AT A Y SHAPED JUNCTION, THE POWER TO THE 2010 CAMARO SHUT OFF. DRIVER WAS UNABLE TO STEER THE CAR OR STOP, AND THE CAR SLAMMED INTO A BLOCK WALL AT 30 MPH. AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. PASSENGER WAS UNCONSCIOUS AND TAKEN VIA AMBULANCE TO HOSPITAL FOR CONCUSSION SYMPTOMS. DRIVER SUFFERED INJURIES TO NECK AND UPPER BACK, ALSO REQUIRING MEDICAL ATTENTION. BOTH WERE WEARING SEAT BELTS, BOTH STILL BEING TREATED FOR INJURIES SUSTAINED. *TR

SERVICE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT COMES ON AND GOES OFF WHILE DRIVING . CALLED SERVICE DEPARTMENT THEY SAID MAKE SURE NOTHING IS UNDER SEATS THAT COULD OBSTRUCT THE SEAT SENSORS. CHECKED NOTHING THERE. LIGHT STILL ON. SERVICE DEPARTMENT SAID IT WOULD MAKE AIR BAGS INOPERABLE, WOULDN'T DEPLOY AIR BAGS. IN CASE OF ACCIDENT. IS IT NORMAL TO SERVICE AIR BAGS AT A CERTAIN MILEAGE POINT. I AM FINDING ONLINE MANY OF THE CAMARO'S SEEM TO BE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS I AM. I DON'T WANT TO BE DRIVING WHEN THEY DECIDE TO GO OFF . *TR

2010 CAMARO RS, V6 MANUAL TRANSMISSION: PASSED A CAR AND TRIED TO SHIFT DOWN BUT THE CLUTCH WOULD NOT SHIFT THE CAR DOWN TO 5TH. TRIED CLUTCH AGAIN AND ALL IT WOULD DO WAS MOVE AROUND AND NEVER CATCH. SAME WITH THE STICK SHIFT. IT WOULD NOT GO INTO ANY SPEED. IT WAS LIKE THE CLUTCH, WOULD MOVE AROUND FROM 1ST - 6TH LIKE THIS WAS A TOY I WAS TRYING TO SHIFT. ALSO, I COULD NOT BRAKE THE CAR WITH THE REGULAR BRAKE OR EMERGENCY BRAKE. WHILE THIS WAS GOING ON MY CAR WAS INCREASING IN SPEED AND THE MOTOR REVVED TO THE POINT I THOUGHT WAS GOING TO EXPLODE. THE ONLY WAY I COULD STOP IT WAS TO TURN THE CAR OFF. WHEN I DID THIS L LOST STEERING AND HEADLIGHTS. COASTED TO A STOP FINALLY. HAD ONSTAR RUN A DIAGNOSTIC ON ALL THE CAR AND THEY SAID EVERYTHING WAS SHOWING UP OK. TALKED TO ROADSIDE AND THEY SAID WHAT I WAS DESCRIBING WAS A BURNED CLUTCH. THE CAR SMELLED LIKE IT WAS ON FIRE. TOOK IT TO A GM DEALER AND THEY SAID I NEEDED A NEW CLUTCH AND FLYWHEEL FOR $2400. I HAVE TO PAY BIG DOLLARS FOR A REPAIR THAT ALMOST KILLED ME, AND NOW I FIND OUT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM. COME ON GM YOU GOT LUCKY WITH ME OR YOU COULD OF HAD ANOTHER FATALITY. *TR

FOR THE PASSED FEW MONTH I'VE NOTICE MY PASSENGER AIRBAG SENSOR HASN'T BEEN WORKING RIGHT, BUT NEVER THOUGHT ANYTHING MAJOR ABOUT IT. I DON'T HAVE A LOT OF PEOPLE IN MY PASSENGER SEAT SO IT WASN'T A PROBLEM AT FIRST. NOW IT'S BECOME ANNOYING AND MAKE ME FEEL BAD ABOUT MY CAR. I JUST TOOK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME WHAT I ALREADY KNEW THAT THE MODULE HAS A DEFECT. *TR

THE DASH IS CRACKED AROUND PASSENGER AIRBAG DOORS AND I'M CONCERNED WITH THE OPERATION OF AIRBAG IF IN A ACCIDENT AND THE MUFFLER IS COMING APART WITH ONLY 27000 MILES. *TR
