2014 Chevrolet Camaro. Consumer writes in regards to key problem recall notice and expresses discontent over vehicle tires. The consumer stated who could not drive the vehicle, when the temperature, was below 35 degrees, because the came equipped with summer tires.
Made a turn in rain going approx 10 mph and car slid. Luckily no accident, however it is utter nonsense to sell an automobile in the northeast with summer tires only and then offer all weather tires and rims as a $1000. 00 after market option. I feel this is not only unsafe but lethal to the driver and all occupants. I believe that chevy should be selling the car with all weather tires (safety first) and the summer tires as an option. I feel that paying $45,000. 00 for a vehicle it should be safe. I feel that there will be many accidents to come and I would like to know "does someone have to die" to get this investigated. I feel chevy should recall all autos with these summer tires and replace them with all weather or at least have the owner sigh a waiver.
I took my car in for service, ie, oil change, tire rotation, air filter replacement. I was informed that my tires, even though they had plenty of tread life left on them, 6/32 front, 5/32 rear, that they were dry rotted and separated between the treads. Also was informed that this could be very dangerous, the tires may come apart while driving. I was informed by the technician that this was a defect in the tires. In addition, the tires were put on a 2010 Camaro and the manufactures date on all 4 tires are from 2008. I know eventually I would have to buy new tires, but if the tires weren't in the condition they are in I more than likely could get another 30,000 miles out of them. Most importantly is the safety hazard of the tires. Looking through the reports on this particular tire, I saw similar complaints.

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.
Summer tires come standard with vehicle. Temperature 38 degrees tires loose all handling capabilities. Numerous other Camaro owners have lodged complaints and can be found on internet. These tires are dangerous.
Summer only tires sold as factory equipment on 2011 Camaro. These tires provided no traction when I was caught in a snowstorm on the way to work. In only 1 to 2 inches of snow I could barely maintain control at 11 mph while other cars passed me like I was sitting still. I find it painfully frustrating that in a country where I must wear a seatbelt "for my protection", that a car company can sell a vehicle with such dangerous tires.
The tires on my 2011 chevy Camaro (and other models) are perelli p-zero tires which are "summer" tires as indicated by the manufacturers. These tires are not recommended for near freezing temps. The auto manufacturer failed to inform me the tires (which are stock) are only recommended for warm weather. I believe the manufacturer has not informed most customers of the situation. My research indicates these tires exhibit more problems with handling in cold temps as tire wear increases. The manufacturer of the auto has indicated to me that their engineers are confident these tires are safe, but the tire manufacturer continues to recommend against using these tires in near freezing temps. As most of the continental USA is exposed to near freezing and below freezing temps, I am concerned these tires will result in crashes which could be avoided if the auto manufacturer provided proper tires for our climate. This is a problem which may go unnoticed as most accidents go un-investigated or an investigator will not consider the temps were near or below freezing at the time of the accident.
2011 Camaro tires do not grip the road properly & low temperatures like here in n. Y. During the winter months. I just purchased this vehicle & at no point was I told that the tires are for summer use only. This is my only vehicle & has to be used all year round. I did not think spending top dollar for a performance vehicle was going to mean that I could only operate it safely 8 months out of the year??? this vehicle was shipped to NY, to be sold in NY! why would this happen? the tires cannot be trusted & I fear it will cause someone there life.
I purchased a 2010 ss Camaro in northeast ohio. After purchase I found out that the cars come with "summer only" tires. The tires do not say anything about being "summer only" so I tried to drive the car in our winter season. The car is impossible to drive in as little as an inch of snow. I purchased winter tires for this season for over $1000. 00. Pirelle informed me that the tires an not to be used in temps under 41 degrees, the week of thanksgiving (2010) temps in florida were under 35 degrees. These tires can not be used in more than 50% of America! why should a customer of a new car be expected to purchase tires? then are unsafe and unusable in most parts of the country.
The contact owns a 2010 Chevrolet Camaro ss equipped with pirelli pzero tires, size p245/45/20. The contact stated that the tires sold on the vehicle were "summer tires". While driving 45 mph and passing another vehicle, the tires lost traction and moved sideways. The contact called the tire manufacturer who stated that when the temperature was below 45 degrees, the tires should not be used. The warranty was void and should be switched for "winter tires". The tires were not replaced. The current mileage was approximately 8,000. The failure mileage was approximately 7,000.
This complaint is to make the NHTSA aware of a safety hazard that exists with certain 2011 Chevrolet Camaros. I own a 1lt equipped with the rs package. This package includes 20" rims. Unfortunately, shortly after taking possession of the vehicle, I learned that gm equips rs Camaros with pirelli p-zero tires. These tires are rated as "summer only" tires and will pose an extreme safety hazard to those attempting to operate the vehicle in snow, or temperatures below 45 degrees f--essentially making the vehicle undrivable in winter weather. Gm, nor the dealership, warned the driver that these tires can only be used in the summer. Unaware drivers may become stuck or lose control and crash, due to the tire's loss of traction and hardening of rubber in cold/winter conditions.
The contact owns a 2011 Chevrolet Camaro (na) equipped with pirelli p0 tires, size 245/45/r20 front, 275/40/r20 in the rear. The contact stated that the vehicle was equipped with tires that were only good in the summer weather or in states that had continuously nice weather all year long. He stated that the tires had no traction and on the tire it was notated "summer only". The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer. The dealer stated that they had no control over the tires that were installed by the factory and referred him to the manufacturer. The manufacturer offered no assistance. The tires were not replaced. The VIN was not available. The failure mileage was approximately 100 and the current mileage was approximately 150.
2010 Chevrolet Camaro. Consumer states problems with tires the consumer stated while driving, he felt the vehicle start to run different and there was a smell of rubber. Earlier during the drive, he received an alert that the driver side front tire pressure was low, so he stopped and added air. There was no indication that the rear driver side tire was low on pressure. The consumer pulled over and discovered the rear driver side tire was completely flat and destroyed beyond repair. The consumer then called onstar and was given the tire size of his tires, only to discover the tires on the vehicle were smaller than the tires on the front. The consumer is requesting reimbursement due to an error that was made at the factory and the money that was spent to replace the tire.
