2010 Chevrolet Camaro

P008 CODE. TIMING CHAIN ISSUES. IF THIS FAILS AND THE ENGINE SEIZES WHILE DRIVING,ALL OF US CAMARO OWNERS COULD BE IN ACCIDENTS. DEATH COULD EVEN OCCURED. I BOUGHT MY 2010 CAMARO FEBRUARY OF 2016. I'M AM THE 2ND OWNER AND ONLY PUT 66K MILES ON THE ENGINE. 85% TO AND FROM WORK. I'VE REPLACED EVERYTHING POSSIBLE TO GET RID OF THE P008 CODE BUT IT'S STILL THERE. YOU HAVE RECALLED OTHER VEHICLES WITH THIS ISSUE WHY NOT US CAMARO OWNERS? PLEASE HELP IS!

ALL FACTORY MAINTENANCE WAS COMPLETED AT A FACTORY SERVICE PROVIDER, ON OR BEFORE RECOMMENDED TIME/MILEAGE. AT 58K+/- MILES DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 35MPH ENGINE SUFFERED CATASTROPHIC FAILURE DUE TO TIMING CHAIN FAILURE, CAUSING ENGINE TO SEIZE, CAR LOST ALL POWER STEERING, POWER BRAKES WHILE ENTERING A TURN RESULTING IN NEARLY RUNNING OVER PEDESTRIANS OTHERWISE WALKING SAFELY ON THE SIDE OF THE STREET. GM HAS RECALLED OTHER VEHICLES WITH SAME ENGINE BUT NOT THE V6 CAMARO FOR A TIMING CHAIN FAILURE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 CHEVROLET CAMARO. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE INADVERTENTLY SHIFTED INTO FIRST GEAR. ALSO, THE SERVICE STABILITY TRAC AND ENGINE POWER REDUCED WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE DEALER (VANDERGRIFF CHEVROLET, 1200 W INTERSTATE 20, ARLINGTON, TX 76017, (682) 323-2486) WAS CONTACTED AND STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 110,000.

MY CAR IS REACHING 50K MILES I BOUGHT IT USED AND HAD IT FOR THE PAST YEARS AND HAVE BEEN RUNNING INTO A PROBLEM RECENTLY WHICH HAPPENS TO BE THE TRANSMISSION LIKE TODAY THAT THE CAR IS GRINDING WHEN SHIFTING INTO 2 GEAR AND HAS DONE IT IN THE PAST AND GOT STUCK ONCE IN TRAFFIC LUCKLY NO ACCIDENT BUT LIKE TODAY I WENT IN A TRIP AND GRINDED LIKE 5TIMES BUT HAPPY TO HAVE NOT RAN INTO ANY ACCIDENTS.SO I'M HERE DOING THIS BECAUSE I DID QUITE SOME RESEARCH AND I KNOW A LOT OF OWNERS OF THIS CAR HAVE RUN INTO THIS PROBLEM AND REALLY CAN COST A LIFE.MAIN REASON I'M DOING THIS IS BECAUSE I JUST WANT TO FIX THIS PROBLEM BUT CHEVY DOESN'T HAVE ANYTHING TO FIX IT OR AN ANSWER.WHICH THEY HAVE TO BE PUSHED INTO HELPING US FIX THIS PROBLEM WHICH CAN CAUSE LIFE ISSUES PERHAPS FOR SOMEONE.ONCE AGAIN THIS APPEARS TO BE A MANUAL TRANSMISSION ISSUE THAT HAVE HASN'T FIXED ACCORDING TO MYSELF AND A QUITE OF FEW PEOPLE.I'M WILLING TO TAKE ANY ADVICE ON HOW TO FIX MY ISSUE .THANKS

THE REAR DRIVESHAFT BOLTS BETWEEN THE GUIBO AND THE PINION FLANGE SHEERED CAUSING DAMAGE TO MY FUEL TANK SHIELD, DRIVE SHAFT, AND FLANGE. OUT OF WARRANTY AND HAD BILL CRISPIN PERFORM WARRANTY WORK ON THE COMPONENTS FOR A DRIVETRAIN CONCERN. THE VEHICLE WAS ACCELERATING FROM A STOP IN STOP AND GO RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC WHEN THE CONCERN OCCURRED ON FORD ROAD WHERE IT INTERSECTS I-275.

THE ENGINE LIGHT WENT ON AND IT WAS BROUGHT IN FOR SERVICE. I WAS TOLD THE CODE P0008 MEANT THAT IT HAD A STRETCHED TIMING CHAIN WHICH WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED AND IS A VERY EXPENSIVE REPAIR. I RECENTLY FOUND OUT THAT THIS IS VERY COMMON IN OTHER CHEVY ENGINES AND THE POWER TRAIN WARRANTEE WAS EXTENDED TO COVER THESE REPAIRS IN OTHER ENGINES, BUT NOT MY CAMARO. I CURRENTLY ONLY HAVE 73K MILES AND WOULD LIKE TO SEE CHEVY FIX THE ISSUE AS IT HAS BEEN DONE WITH THE OTHER GM CARS.

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. CAR WAS IN MOTION. TOOK TO DEALER FOR DIAGNOSIS: NEED TO REPLACE THE TIMING CHAIN ON A CAR WITH 44000 MILES ON IT. CAR USUALLY SITS IN WINTER. ALL MAINTENANCE HAS BEEN PERFORMED BY THE DEALER. ORDERED THE CAR AND PURCHASED IT TO KEEP IT. ALWAYS HAND WASHED. IT IS THE V-6 ENGINE AND I UNDERSTAND THAT THEY WILL ONLY REPAIR THIS ENGINE ON CADILLACS & SOME SATURN MODELS. IT IS THE SAME ENGINE USED IN VARIOUS VEHICLES. I FEEL THAT THIS IS VERY PREMATURE. I HAVE NEVER HAD TO REPLACE A TIMING CHAIN. I UNDERSTAND THAT THE GEARS ARE PLASTIC AND THE CHAIN IS METAL. I DO NOT FEEL THAT THIS SHOULD BE A COST TO ME AS THIS IS DESIGNED TO FAIL. IM SURE I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE THIS HAS HAPPENED TO.
