2010 Chevrolet Camaro

I JUST BOUGHT A 2010 CHEVY CAMARO ON DECEMBER 30TH FROM A CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED CAR DEALER AND WITHIN A MONTH LATER THE POWER-STEERING PUMP FAILS AND I HAVE NO POWER STEERING. IT WAS ONE OF THE COLDEST DAYS IN THE SINGLE DIGITS, IT'S BEEN A VERY BAD WINTER FOR THE NORTHEAST PART OF THE US. IN LESS THEN AN HOUR BEFORE THIS HAPPENED THE CAR WAS DRIVING NORMALLY FROM SUPERMARKET TO PHARMACY TO THE RESTAURANT WHERE I BOUGHT LUNCH, WHICH ARE ALL IN A 7/8 BLOCK RADIUS FROM MY HOME. WHEN I GOT HOME I COULDN'T FIND A PLACE TO PARK NEAR MY HOUSE BECAUSE THERE ISN'T A WHOLE LOT OF PARKING SPACES IN SOUTH PHILADELPHIA WHERE I LIVE, PLUS THERE'S A CORNER BAR ON THE CORNER WHO'S CUSTOMERS DON'T LIVE AROUND HERE, SO I PARKED ABOUT A BLOCK AWAY. NOT EVEN AN HOUR LATER A SPOT OPENED UP IN FRONT OF MY HOUSE SO I DECIDED TO GO AND GET MY CAR WHICH WHEN I FOUND OUT THE POWER STEERING WAS GONE I WAS TRYING TO TURN THE CORNER AND TRYING TO PARK MY CAR TOOK A LOT OF PAIN-STAKING FORCE TO TURN THE STEERING WHEEL AND THAT IS WHEN I WRENCHED MY LOWER BACK OUT AND I WAS IN PAIN. I'M DISABLED BECAUSE I WAS IN A CAR ACCIDENT BACK IN 2006 WHEN I WAS WORKING FOR A LIMOUSINE COMPANY. I HAVE BAD LOWER BACK INJURIES CONSISTING OF HERNIATED, BULGING AND RUPTURED DISCS. I WAS TRYING TO TURN THE STEERING WHEEL TO PARK AND I WRENCHED OUT MY LOWER BACK SO BAD THAT I'M LAID UP IN BED. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH ONLINE IT SEEMS I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO IS GOING THROUGH THIS PROBLEM OR WHO'S BEEN THROUGH THIS PROBLEM MANY TIMES OVER WITH THE SAME POWER STEERING PROBLEM. WHEN IT'S BITTERLY COLD OUT THE POWER STEERING PUMP BREAKS. I DON'T KNOW WHY THIS ISN'T A RECALL YET BECAUSE IT'S A PART NOT COVERED UNDER THE POWER TRAIN WARRANTY OR THE 5 YEARS OR 100K MILES WHICH EVER COMES FIRST. SO NOW I CAN'T DRIVE THIS CAR IN THE COLD WEATHER AND WHERE I LIVE GETS COLD IN THE WINTER. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL PLEASE. *TR

PASSENGER AIR BAG SENSOR DID NOT DETECT A PASSENGER IN THE SEAT, HAD TO PAY $$ TO HAVE THIS REPLACED. ON STAR RED LIGHT WAS ALSO ON THEN GREEN ON & OFF. ON STAR SAID IT A COMMUNICATION FAILED & WITH THE ACCIDENT NOTIFICATION. THE CAR WAS CHECKED AT DEALERSHIP SAME TIME THE AIR BAG SENSOR WAS CHECKED. THEN CHECKED 2 MORE TIMES SINCE. THE DEALERSHIP COULD NOT FIND THE PROBLEM & TOLD US THEY WOULD HAVE TO TAKE DASH & CONSOLE OUT TO FIND PROBLEM AT OUR EXPENSE & OUR EXPENSE FOR A DIAGNOSTIC AGAIN. WE NOW HAVE THE CAR AT A DIFFERENT GM DEALERSHIP THAT HAS A TESTING INSTRUMENT FOR THE ANTENNA AND. IT CHARGING US FOR THE DIAGNOSTIC. WE BOUGHT THIS CAR OFF SHOW ROOM AT DEALERSHIP FOR OUR DAUGHTER TO HAVE A DEPENDABLE SAFE CAR TO GET HER THROUGH HIGH SCHOOL & COLLEGE. NO THE EXTENDED WARRANTY HASN'T COVERED ANY OF THIS. *TR

I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR INTO THE DEALERSHIP AND HAD THEM CHECK IT OUT TO SEE WHAT IS WRONG AND FOR $100 DIAGNOSIS CHARGE. THEY TOLD ME THAT IT NEEDS A NEW PASSENGER AIRBAG SENSOR...ON THE REPAIR TICKET IT IS STATED AS DTC B0081 PASSENGER SEAT PROBLEM. I HAVE AROUND 55,000 MILES AND NO WARRANTY LEFT. RESEARCHED THIS ISSUE AND FOUND MANY TYPES OF GM CHEVY MODELS WITH THE SAME ISSUE. THIS COST SHOULD NOT BE ON THE CONSUMER AND SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED. IF YOU CAN HELP PLEASE EMAIL ME AT [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CHEVROLET CAMARO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 3 MPH AND MAKING A TURN, A LOUD ABNORMAL NOISE EMITTED FROM OUTSIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE RECURRED NUMEROUS TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER FOR DIAGNOSIS WHERE IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE REAR AXLE WAS SLIGHTLY FRACTURED.

I HAVE A 2010 CAMARO 2LT WITH 255-20FRONT AND 275-20REAR, AT AROUND 15K KILOMETERS I NOTICED A SLIGHT NOISE OF FRONT TIRES AND EFFECT ON THE STEERING, I FOUND A BIT LATER THAT THE PIRELLI P ZERO'S WERE STARTING TO CUP, I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE INTO MY GM DEALER AND THEY REPLACED THEM THROUGH WARRANTY, I HAD A FULL ALIGNMENT DONE, NOTHING WAS OUT OF LINE OR BALANCE. I AM ON MY 2ND SET OF FRONTS AND THEY ARE ALSO TOAST AT THE SAME MILEAGE INTERVAL. I AM NOT SURE IF THE TIRES ARE THE PROBLEM OR IF THE VEHICLES STEERING/SUSPENSION SYSTEM IS TO LIGHT TO HANDLE THE LARGE TIRES? WHEN I LOOK AT THE STEERING SYSTEM I AM HIGHLY SUSPICIOUS THAT THIS IS THE CASE. GM WOULD OF COURSE DENY THIS AND I CANNOT PROVE THIS UNTIL I CHANGE OVER TO ANOTHER SET OF TIRES. IT WILL BE INTERESTING TO FIND OUT IF THE STEERING BEING TOO LIGHT WOULD BE THE PROBLEM. *TR
