Tl the contact owns a 2021 Chevrolet Camaro equipped with the hill start assist feature. The contact stated that the vehicle had a manual transmission. While stopped on an incline with the brake pedal and clutch pedal depressed, the hill start assist feature activated, locking the transmission to prevent the vehicle from rolling backwards. The contact stated that while attempting to move from the stopped position, the clutch pedal and accelerator pedal were depressed simultaneously however, the hill assist feature hesitated to release for approximately 2-seconds causing the vehicle to roll backwards. The contact was concerned about a possible accident during the two second delay when the feature failed to deactivate immediately. Another concern was that there was no way to override the feature. Reymore Chevrolet (746 n main st, central square, NY 13036, (315)668-2673) was made aware of the failure. The contact was informed that the hill start assist feature was included in the vehicle's safety features and could not be deactivated. The contact stated that he believed the issue to be a design flaw and not a failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted nor notified of the issue. The approximate failure mileage was 260.
When operating the car it began to slow down. Once I approached a stop the car engine shut off. After a few minutes I was able to start again. After I drove through the light and proceeded home about 2 miles away from the initial stop, the car shut off again. It was sent to vandergriff Chevrolet in arlington, texas and the issue they said had something to do with a cam magnet- this was Nov 2021. Today- November 7 2022 the same thing happened as I was headed to the store. I dropped the car off yet again for repair. The service advisors didn't know how to fix it and had the car for two weeks. They expect to have it for another week to assess and diagnose the problem but the fact that the car has shut off more than 3 times is unsafe.
