general problems of the 2013 Chevrolet Camaro

The contact owns a 2013 Chevrolet Camaro. The contact stated that while driving 30 mph, the clutch pedal was depressed and traveled to the floorboard. Additionally, the gear shifter had seized. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic, and it was diagnosed that the brake line was damaged and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The contact stated that the VIN was not included in NHTSA campaign number: 24v702000 (service brakes, hydraulic). The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 90,000.

My 2013 Camaro had 89k miles, garage kept in excellent condition. My vehicle had never given me any issues and has impeccable maintenance records. I was pulling out of a parking spot when my engine started riving and jerking and I accelerated while in reverse and hit a concrete post behind me. I applied the brake and placed the car in drive. My car took off with a high speed of acceleration with my brakes still applied, and accelerated out of control. It followed the same path back into the parking spot ( I could not stir it) jumped the curb and ran through a brick wall finally coming to a stop in the middle of the business. The engine was still racing and in drive but the car had finally stopped and in a state of rest. I had to put the car into park and kill the engine. I could not control the car, the engine was racing with high rpm’s on its own, and driving in “ auto pilot” for lack of better term. Not one air bag deployed despite the fact I ran through a brick wall and totaled the car.

Takata recall, I was driving down my city street when all of a sudden I believe it was a pot hole or just uneven gravel leading my knee hit the key in the ignition and in that second I had no control or control of what happened next. I could not brake, my seat belt locked on me hurting my collar bone, then my wheel was so hard to turn I was using both hands aggressively to turn as hard as I can just so I wouldn't hit a building or cause damage to others and as I was sterling I would keep pressing the brakes and they were just locked. I had to hit a barrier of wood to stop my car. The airbags did not deploy as well which was very scary. I had no control of my car for the first time and it was not my fault, this has never happened and I know it's because of the key being bumped. My recall # 14v346000 accidental bumping of key ignition. I had no idea this car had a recall. The dealership did not inform me either. I am now car -less and hoping to get somewhat taken care of because it was unsafe and I don't wish this on anyone. Very scary experience.

I'm considering purchasing this vehicle from a dealership in logan, OH. When I checked to see if there were reported problems with the model, I see that there are thousands of complaints concerning the ac/radio, climate control, turn signals and other associated electrical problems that are common to all of these related consumer complaints that as to date has not been addressed by either the gm corp. Or the NHTSA. The 2nd thing that I found there is indeed a recall concerning the ignition switch with many owners having not been able to get gm dealers to repair. Another concern to me about this particular vehicle, is that when I entered the VIN the results on this site states that there is zero recalls on this make, model and year. Just wondering what's up with that?.

6 months ago my infotainment screen started flashing and the cd would occasionally pop out of the player on its own. The music would turn itself off then come back on, startling me as it would be accompanied by a loud static or popping sound. It started off intermittently, then the screen went completely black and the music stopped working completely except for the constant buzzing/static sound accompanied by clicking as though something is trying to turn on. The screen and the music occasionally make a surprising appearance, usually after I've come to a stop, rolled my window down or used the turn signal. Which brings me to the next thing, the air conditioning system. To this day it comes on and off at its leisure, including the front and rear window defrost. My blinkers no longer make the sound to alert me that they are on. On a few occasions my drivers side window has failed to operate. I assume one day that will be also be inoperative based on previous trends. I cancelled my subscription to onstar since I have no access to the features any longer. This means I no longer have navigation, access to emergency services, hands free calling or even roadside assistance. I no longer have the ability to remote access my vehicle which was one of the main selling points. Now please imagine taking an uncomfortably silent ride with me and then all of the sudden a cd that wasn't playing pops out and the air conditioner keeps going on and off, all while the car sounds like its about to explode. I've researched online and found countless sites with numerous owners stating that they are experiencing the same problems. Add another 5000 or so characters to this complaint box and I will gladly copy and paste those owners' stories for you to consider as well. Chevrolet/gm say that this is my issue alone. I believe this should have been a recall years before I purchased my vehicle.

Tl-the contact is an insurance agent calling on behalf of the owner of a 2013 Chevrolet Camaro. The operator of the vehicle was driving approximately 30 mph when the steering wheel seized up and became very hard to turn. The power brakes became inoperable, and the vehicle veered to the right, and driver crashed into a ditch. The driver sustained a minor injury. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic, where it is still being diagnosed. There was no police report filed. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown. Aa.

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.
