CHEVROLET Complaints

The contact owns a 2022 Chevrolet Camaro. The contact stated that the vehicle failed to shift to park(P) as intended, requiring the driver to shift into reverse(R) and then into park(P). There was no warning light illuminated. The contact stated that the failure was due to a faulty switch. The contact related the failure to GM TSB Number: 21-NA-245. The local dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 23,000. The VIN was not available.

Exhaust bracket broke, created a hole in pipe, which then resulted in cracked catalytic converter. Dealership and GM denied repairs due to the hole being on the "wrong pipe" but the same bracket that is covered broke resulting in the consequential damage. Check engine light came on, loud exhaust noise. Threw codes P219A, P2097, P0171. Bulletin even outlines that broken bracket/hole can cause cracks in converter, still denied. This is a known issue with the welding on this pipe/bracket, why they didn't extend the coverage to BOTH pipes is beyond me.

Complete engine failure on the highway, compete engine and power lockup, towed back to dealership where complete engine lockup was confirmed. No prior issues, no other damage contributing to failure. Claims not to be covered under current recall, advising the recall be extended to all 6.2 19-04 Chevy models as I experienced the same engine failure as recall states.

Loud ticking noise and power loss. Transmission shift slips from 2nd to 3rd . Called factory and dealership for check up. Said no problem… Told to Change oil. Did this, NO CHANGE.

The entire engine was replaced at 5 miles due to catastrophic failure. Work was performed by Ciocca Chevrolet in Atlantic City New Jersey

Escalation of Recurring Powertrain Issue and Warranty Denial This statement outlines a severe, recurring safety issue with my vehicle’s 8-speed Escalation of Recurring Powertrain Issue and Warranty Denial transmission, which the dealership has now recommended replacing at a cost of $7,500. I am formally disputing this out-of-pocket expense due to the vehicle's repair history and its alignment with active manufacturer recalls. First Incident (Towed to Dealership): The vehicle initially experienced severe jerking and hesitation during acceleration, which left me stranded roadside. It was towed to the dealership, where technicians diagnosed the issue as a faulty fuel injector. The injector was replaced at no cost, and I was assured the problem was resolved. Second Incident (Current Diagnosis): The vehicle recently began exhibiting the exact same symptoms: severe jerking and acceleration hesitation. Upon returning the vehicle to the dealership, technicians diagnosed the issue as a complete transmission failure requiring a full replacement. Recall Alignment: The dealership has stated that this replacement is not covered under warranty. However, this vehicle is actively experiencing every symptom outlined in the manufacturer's current 8-speed transmission recall. While my specific VIN is currently omitted from the recall list, the mechanical failure is identical to the recall parameters. Given that the underlying safety issue was present and documented during the first visit, and that the symptoms mirror an active manufacturing defect, I request that this repair be covered under goodwill or the existing safety campaign.

Transmission failure at 127,000 miles. Multiple flairs in transmission resulting in total rebuild

When a trailer is connected while parked and vehicle is off, trailer lights flicker, blink and sometimes remain on. Sometimes these events will set off alarm also draining battery down.

REDUCED ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON TICKING NOISE STOPPED 2 TIMES ON THE HIGHWAY REPAIR LOT RAN A DIAGNOSTIC UNABLE TO FIND THE ISSUE CAR IS NOT WORKING FOUND MANY CODES STILLUNABLE TO FIX THE ISSUE

The vehicle was shaking and shuddering when trying to maintain highway speeds. Would have to slow down to maintain safety. The dealership advised the transmission needs replaced however we are seeing this is a widespread problem that GM has refused to admit fault for.
