I HAVE A MANUAL V8 MODEL. WHENEVER STOPPED ON AN INCLINE, THE HILL START ASSIST (HSA) ENGAGES. THE FIRST TIME I GAVE IT PLENTY OF THROTTLE AND THE BRAKES WOULD NOT DISENGAGE AND CAUSED ME TO STALL. THE 2ND TIME, I HAD THE RPM VERY HIGH AND AGAIN THE BRAKES WOULD NOT DISENGAGE. MY CAR WAS JUMPING UP AND DOWN UNDER THE STRAIN. WHEN IT FINALLY RELEASED THE CAR, I WAS GREETED WITH THE SMELL OF BURNING CLUTCH. THIS CANNOT BE NORMAL. I DON'T THINK HITTING 2000 RPM AND DROPPING THE CLUTCH SHOULD BE A NORMAL METHOD TO OVERCOME TEH HSA SYSTEM. I HAVE AUTO HILL BRAKING ON OTHER VEHICLES THAT ARE NEARLY INVISIBLE TO ME AND WORK FLAWLESSLY. I BEEN DRIVING MANUAL CARS FOR 20+ YEARS AND HAVE NO ISSUES ON HILL STARTS. ONE OF THE BIGGEST ISSUES IS THERE IS NO WAY TO TURN OFF THE HSA FEATURE. I THINK YOU NEED TO FORCE GM TO RECALIBRATE THE SYSTEM AND/OR ALLOW THE DRIVER TO TURN THE HSA FEATURE OFF. *TR
General Motors, LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2013 Buick Verano, Chevrolet Camero, Sonic, and Volt vehicles. The driver-side air bag inflator may explode during deployment due to a manufacturing defect.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: An inflator explosion may result in sharp metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants, resulting in serious injury or death.
Remedy: Dealers will replace the driver-side air bag module, free of charge. On some 2013 Volt vehicles, the steering wheel will be replaced as well, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed October 23, 2023. Owners may contact Buick customer service at 1-800-521-7300 and Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020. GM's number for this recall is N232413120.
General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling all 2010-2014 Chevrolet Camaro vehicles manufactured December 3, 2008 to May 23, 2014. In the affected vehicles, the driver may accidentally hit the ignition key with their knee, unintentionally knocking the key out of the run position, turning off the engine.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: If the key is not in the run position, the air bags may not deploy if the vehicle is involved in a crash, increasing the risk of injury. Additionally, a key knocked out of the run position could cause loss of engine power, power steering, and power braking, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
Remedy: GM will notify owners, and dealers will remove the key blade from the original flip key/RKE transmitter assemblies, and provide two new keys and two key rings per key. The recall began August 25, 2014. Owners may contact Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020. GM's number for this recall is 14294. Note: Until the recall has been performed, it is very important that drivers adjust their seat and steering column to allow clearance between their knee and the ignition key.
General Motors (GM) is recalling certain model year 2013 and 2014 Chevrolet Camaro Coupes manufactured June 9, 2013, through September 6, 2013. In the affected vehicles, the required air bag warning label on the sun visor may peel off. Thus, these vehicles fail to comply to Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 208 "Occupant Crash Protection."
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: If the air bag warning label detaches from the visor, the driver and front seat passenger may not be warned of the risks of air bag deployment, increasing the risk of injury in the event of a crash.
Remedy: GM will notify owners, and instruct owners how to inspect the visor sticker. As necessary, dealers will replace the sun visor, free of charge. The recall began on October 28, 2013. Owners may contact GM at 1-800-521-7300. GM's recall campaign number is 13284.
