2014 Chevrolet Camaro

WHILE DRIVING, THE TAPSHIFT LEVER WAS CAUGHT IN THE KEY RING ATTACHED TO THE KEY IN THE IGNITION. THIS CAUSED THE CAR TO SHIFT OUT OF GEAR, AS IF BEING PUT INTO NEUTRAL, SO THAT THE CAR SLOWED VERY SUDDENLY AND DANGEROUSLY. THIS HAPPENED ONLY WHEN MAKING SHARP RIGHT TURNS, AS WHEN TURNING AT AN INTERSECTION. THIS OCCURRED SEVERAL TIMES THROUGHOUT THE DAY, UNTIL WE REALIZED THAT THE TAPSHIFT LEVER WAS ONLY ABLE TO GET CAUGHT ON THE KEYRING WHEN THE STEERING WHEEL WAS FULLY LOWERED. ADJUSTING THE STEERING WHEEL HEIGHT RESOLVED THE ISSUE. *TR

RECALL NOTICE 14V346 RECEIVED FOR IGNITION KEY REPLACEMENT FROM GM IN AUGUST 2014 AND DEALER NOTICE OF PAST DUE SERVICE RECALL FOR THIS SAME SAFETY ISSUE ALSO RECEIVED NOVEMBER 2014. WHEN I CALLED TODAY TO GET MY 2014 CAMARO SAFETY REPAIRED THE SERVICE PROVIDER AT THE DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE SAID THE PARTS ARE ON BACK ORDER AND WOULD NOT MAKE AN APPOINTMENT FOR THE SAFETY REPAIR?! SHE ADVISED ME TO CALL BACK IN 10 DAYS. GM MUST REALLY BE CONCERNED ABOUT MY SAFETY TO NOT HAVE SAFETY RECALL PARTS AVAILABLE FOR REPAIRS. ALSO, I PREVIOUSLY PURCHASED AN ADDITIONAL IGNITION KEY WITH TRANSMITTER FROM THE DEALER FOR THIS VEHICLE. WHY WILL GM NOT ALSO REPLACE THIS TRANSMITTER/IGNITION KEY UNDER THIS SAFETY RECALL? *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 CHEVROLET CAMARO. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH, THE VEHICLE CRASHED HEAD ON INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE FRONTAL AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY, BUT THE SIDE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED NECK AND HAND INJURIES THAT REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 5,400.

WHEN I FIRST BOUGHT THE CAR MY MOM AND DAD TOOK IT AROUND THE BLOCK AND SAID THAT IT TURNED OFF BUT FAILED TO MENTION IT BECAUSE OF CARS HAVING FEATURES THAT TURN CAR OFF WHILE AT A HALT. I'VE HAD THE CAR FOR ABOUT 6 MONTHS AND IT IS HARDLY DRIVEN. 3 DAYS OF THE WEEK, AND IS BARELY AT 5000 MILES. STILL TECHNICALLY BRAND NEW. ONE DAY WHILE COMING HOME FROM WORK MY BOYFRIEND AND I NOTICED THE CAR TO BE STRUGGLING A LITTLE POWER WISE. WHEN WE CAME TO A STOP AT A LIGHT WE MADE A RIGHT TURN AND THE CAR FELT LIKE IT WAS GOING TO STALL. BARELY TURNING INTO OUR APARTMENT IT FINALLY TURNED OFF. TOOK A COUPLE OF TRIES BUT CAR FINALLY TURNED ON FOR ABOUT 10 SECONDS AND THEN TURNED OFF AGAIN. FINALLY BEING ABLE TO PARK THE CAR, WE TRIED STARTING IT AFTER LETTING IT SIT FOR COUPLE MINUTES AND IT DID NOT WANT TO START. WE DROVE CAR TO NEARBY DEALER LEFT IT OVERNIGHT AND THE NEXT DAY THEY SAID ABOUT 11 CODES WERE COMING UP. AFTER THAT CAR FINALLY TURNED ON ACTED NORMAL FOR A BIT SO WE WERE GIVEN CAR BACK. AFTERWARDS CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND STAYED ON. DUE TO NOT BEING ABLE TO BE OFF WORK WE WERE GOING TO TAKE CAR TO ORIGINAL DEALER WE BOUGHT IT FROM TO GET CHECKED OUT. HALFWAY INTO THE WEEK THE CAR THEN STALLED AGAIN LUCKILY AS WE TURNED INTO WORK. MESSAGES CAME UP SUCH AS "SERVICE STABILITY AND TRACTION CONTROL" AS LONG AS "ENGINE POWER REDUCED". WE WERE ABLE TO PARK IT AND HAD ONSTAR RUN A DIAGNOSTICS FOR IT AND WERE TOLD THAT SEVERAL CODES POPPED WITH TRANNY, STABILITY AND TRACTION CONTROL, ABS BREAKS, ENGINE POWER ETC WERE ALL AFFECTED AT THE TIME. WE TOOK IT TO DEALER COUPLE HOURS LATER AND CAR WAS CHECKED OUT AND "FIXED" COUPLE DAYS LATER. TURNED OUT TO BE A SHORT IN ONE OF THE WIRES. TO THINK A SIMPLE WIRE DEFECT CAN AFFECT THE CAR TO THAT EXTENT IS SCARY! AND I'M THANKFUL THE FAULTINESS DIDN'T OCCUR IN INJURY OR DEATH. *TR

I WAS PULLING INTO A PARKING SPACE MAKING A SUDDEN SHARP LEFT TURN WHEN THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP COMPLETELY, BRAKES COULD NO LONGER BE DEPRESSED ANY FURTHER AND THE ENGINE SHUT OFF COMPLETELY. ONCE VEHICLE CAME TO FULL STOP, THE IGNITION WOULD NOT RELEASE MY KEY OR LET ME START THE CAR AFTER SHIFTING IT BACK INTO PARK. I TRIED SHIFTING OUT AND BACK INTO PARK, OPENING THE DRIVER DOOR AND CLOSING IT WITH NO FIX. AFTER 3 MINUTES, THE CAR FINALLY LET ME START THE ENGINE AND RELEASED THE WHEEL, BRAKES AND KEY. ONSTAR'S DIAGNOSTIC TEST AT TIME OF INCIDENT SHOWED NO PROBLEMS. WENT TO DEALERSHIP THAT EVENING AND CHEVY'S TECHNICIAN SAID THERE ARE NO CODES THAT PULL UP. THE TECHNICIAN AND I BOTH REENACTED THE SITUATION WITH THEIR DIAGNOSTIC LAPTOP AND COULD NOT GET THE CAR TO DO IT AGAIN AND I WAS SENT OFF WITH "NO KNOWN ISSUES FOUND". *TR
