2011 CHEVROLET CAMARO Complaints

Car has new engine and transmission everything is new and well maintained, p2138 pops up throttle quits working causing me to almost wreck into another vehicle, I was stuck in traffic 1 hour waiting for a tow truck, 7 shops have worked on the issue and replaced every part including all the technical service bulletins provided here on the site and car is still doing the same thing. The electric system in the car is prone to these issue as is the ecm . Now it's either sell the car to someone with it being unsafe or spend another couple grand hoping to get it repaired. Chevys drive by wire system is a known issue with these cars yet no recall, why, why not recall and repair the issue or is our safety not a issue

I was driving down the freeway when I suddenly heard a knock coming from the motor. The engine blew a rod almost immediately. Parts and debris started shot out of the bottom of the vehicle. The debris hit my tires, causing me to swerve. I was ultimately able to maintain control of the vehicle and get off the freeway. My vehicle had to be towed.

WHEN SHIFTING THE VEHICLE FROM 1ST GEAR TO SECOND GEAR, THE VEHICLE MAKES A GRINDING NOISE AND STRUGGLES TO GO INTO GEAR. IT SEEMS TO HAPPEN MORE OFTEN WHEN TRYING TO SHIFT IT WHEN IT IS AT A HIGHER GEAR. ALL THE OTHER GEARS SEEM TO NEVER HAVE A PROBLEM SHIFTING.

TL* THE CONTACT'S WIFE OWNS A 2011 CHEVROLET CAMARO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT UPON TAKING THE VEHICLE TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR AN OIL CHANGE, THE MECHANIC INFORMED HIM THAT THERE WAS A FUEL LEAK IN THE GAS TANK. NEITHER THE DEALER NOR THE MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 116,000.

WHILE DRIVING ON A RURAL ROAD, APPROX. 55 MPH, TWICE MY DRIVER SIDE ELECTRIC SEAT STARTED TO MOVE FORWARD AND UP BY ITSELF. IT WILL NOW ONLY MOVE UP AND FORWARD NOT BACKWARD. THE SEAT IS NOW IN A POSITION WHILE DRIVING TO HIGH TO SEE SAFELY AND FORWARD WHERE MY FOOT IS NOW PUSHING ON THE GAS CAUSING UNSAFE CONDITIONS. SINCE THAT DAY (1/18/2021) GOOGLING THE INTERNET I SEE A SAFETY RECALL BACK IN 2014 FOR THIS SAME SAFETY ISSUE AND CAN HAPPEN ALL BY ITSELF. CAN I TAKE IT IN TO BE FIXED WITHOUT COST TO ME ?

ON AUGUST 18TH 2020. I WAS INTERESTED IN BUYING THIS 2011 CAMARO FROM TS AUTO SALES IN ORLANDO FLORIDA. THE SALESMAN NAME IS [XXX]. I ASKED HIM IF THERE WAS ANY EXTENSIVE DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE? HE SAID THE DRIVER SIDE WAS HIT AND IT WAS REPLACED. I ASKED HIM IF THERE WAS ANYTHING ELSE? HE SAID NO. AFTER I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. I LATER FOUND OUT, THAT HE WAS NOT BEING TRUTHFUL WITH ME. I LOOKED THE VEHICLE UP, AND FOUND THAT THE AIR BAGS HAD BEEN DEPLOYED. WHICH IS A MAJOR SAFETY VIOLATION. I ALSO ASKED HIM WHY THE BATTERY WAS BEING DRAINED. HE SAID IT JUST NEED TO BE CHARGED. I TOOK THE CAR TO A STEVE'S AUTO ELECTRIC IN CLERMONT FLORIDA. THE TECHNICIAN TOLD ME THAT THE AIR BAGS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. AT THE COST OF $3,500. THIS IS A REBUILD ABLE TITLE. YOU CAN NOT GET THIS VEHICLE INSPECTED IF ALL OF THE REPAIRS ARE NOT DONE, AND YOU MUST HAVE RECEIPTS FOR EVERY PART THAT WAS REPAIRED, OR REPLACED. THIS IS A VERY UNSAFE VEHICLE. TO MY UNDERSTANDING. IT'S THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE DEALERSHIP TO MAKE ANY MAJOR REPAIRS BEFORE SELLING A VEHICLE. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY WHEN THE DRIVER SIDE SEAT WENT INTO A UPRIGHT POSITION AND I TYPICALLY KEEP MY SEAT SLIGHTLY RECLINED DUE TO MY BAD BACK/LEFT LEG. I CAN MOVE MY SEAT FORWARD POSITION, BACKWARD POSITION, UPRIGHT POSITION ETC... BUT FOR SOME REASON MY SEAT WANT GO INTO RECLINE POSITION VERY DIFFICULT TO DRIVE WITH THE SEAT IN THE UPRIGHT POSITION. TO MY KNOWLEDGE THERE IS A RECALL ON THIS PARTICULAR PROBLEM BACK IN 2014 AND MY CAR IS A 2011 CHEVROLET CAMARO LT COUPE. CAN I STILL TAKE MY VEHICLE TO A LOCAL CHEVROLET DEALER AND HAVE THIS ISSUE TAKEN CARE OF AT "NO EXPENSE TO ME.

THE PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT COME ON THE DASHBOARD STATING REPAIRS NEEDED & REGARDLESS IF SOMEONE IS SITTING IN THE SEAT THE PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT REMAINS 'OFF' IF THE VEHICLE IS MOVING OR STATIONARY. TODAY I WAS SITTING IN THE PASSENGER SEAT WHILE MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING, THE AIRBAG WAS ON & ALL THE SUDDEN THE WARNING SOUND CHIMES & THE LIGHT WENT TO THE OFF POSITION.

CODE U0100 VEHICLE SHOWS REDUCED POWER AND STOPS WHILE DRIVING AND WILL NOT RESTART. ALSO SAY SERVICE STABILTRAK HAVE HEARD THAT A LOT OF GM VEHICLES EXPERIENCE THE SAME PROBLEM. VERY DANGEROUS BECAUSE THE VEHICLES CAN JUST SHUT DOWN AT ANYTIME.

MY TRANSMISSION NOT WORKING THE CAR WON'T MOVE WHEN I PUT IT IN GEAR . AT FIRST WHEN I STOP AT A LIGHT OR STOP SIGN WHEN GETTING READY TO PULL OFF STEP ON THE GAS THE CAR WON'T MOVE IT WOULD HESITATE THEN JUMP INTO GEAR. *TR
