2018 CHEVROLET CAMARO Complaints

WHENEVER THE A/C IS RUNNING THE DEFROSTERS STAY OPEN AND BADLY FOG THE WINDSHIELD ON THE INSIDE...GM IS AWARE AND HAS FIXES THAT DO NOT WORK. I HAVE ATTEMPTED TO HAVE THE DEALER AND GM CORRECT IT (IT APPEARS TO BE EXTREMELY WIDESPREAD AS A PROBLEM)...GM RESPONDED THAT THE CAR FUNCTIONS AS IT WAS DESIGNED. I FIND IT DANGEROUS.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE, ABOUT 65 MPH, AND THE PHONE CHARGER CAUGHT FIRE AND EXPLODED. I STOPPED THE CAR ON THE INTERSTATE TO EXTINGUISH THE FIRE ON MY PERSON. THE CHARGER FELL UNDER THE PASSENGER SEAT, AND CAUGHT THE SEAT ON FIRE. THE WHOLE CAR WAS CONSUMED BY THE TIME THE FIRE DEPARTMENT RESPONDED TO THE SCENE.

WHEN USING THE WINDSHIELD DEFROSTER, INSTEAD OF CLEARING THE CONDENSATION, IT CREATES A VERY THICK AREA OF CONDENSATION ON THE INSIDE OF THE WINDSHIELD, REGARDLESS OF TEMPERATURE SETTING OR FAN SPEED. I HAVE TO CARRY A MICRO FIBER CLOTH TO CLEAR THIS CONDENSATION REPEATEDLY, EVEN WHILE DRIVING.

VEHICLE WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT 3 MONTHS AGO. GM DOES NOT MANUFACTURE REPLACEMENT CURTAIN AIRBAGS FOR THIS BRAND NEW VEHICLE. MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN SITTING AT REPAIR SHOP SINCE DECEMBER 28TH. ALL AIRBAGS WERE DEPLOYED AT TIME OF ACCIDENT. I HAVE NO RECOURSE, OTHER THAN TO TRY AND FIND USED AIRBAGS TO REPAIR MY CAR. APPARENTLY I ALSO HAVE TO SIGN A WAIVER TO HAVE MY CAR RELEASED FROM BODY SHOP. THIS IS UTTERLY UNACCEPTABLE THAT A HUGE MANUFACTURING COMPANY WOULD PRODUCE AN AUTO, AND NOT HAVE REPLACEMENT PARTS FOR IT. APPARENTLY THEY DO NOT HAVE A TIME FRAME FOR PRODUCTION. DO I HAVE ANY RECOURSE? THE VEHICLE WAS CUT OFF, AND SMASHED HEAD ON INTO A TREE ON A CITY STREET. MY CAR IS A CHEVROLET CAMARO ZL1.

THE VEHICLE HAS STALLED NUMEROUS TIMES ATTEMPTING TO START FROM A STOP. VEHICLE HAS ALSO STALLED GOING UP DRIVEWAYS. ONLY WAY TO AVOID STALLING IS TO NOT APPLY THROTTLE OR RIDE THE CLUTCH WHICH IS GOING TO PREMATURELY WEAR SAID CLUTCH.

ON THE ZL1 TRIM PACKAGE, MANUAL TRANSMISSION CARS WHEN TAKING OFF FROM A STOP THE THE CARS TORQUE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM IS INCORRECTLY CONFIGURED AND SENSES WHEEL SLIP (EVIDENT ON THE ELSD SLIP GUAGE) AND CUTS ENGINE POWER AND CAUSES THE CAR TO BOG DOWN AND POTENTIALLY STALL. THIS IS ESPECIALLY DANGEROUS WHEN PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC AND IS A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE IT CAUSES AN ACCIDENT. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE AND DISCUSSED AT LENGTH ON NUMEROUS FORUMS. HERE IS A GOOD EXAMPLE. HTTP://WWW.CAMARO6.COM/FORUMS/SHOWTHREAD.PHP?T=498180
