2011 Chevrolet Camaro

PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG SENSOR IN SEAT IS DEFECTIVE, CONTINUES TO GO ON AND OFF WHEN SOMEONE IS SITTING IN PASSENGER SIDE OF CAR. OR WHEN I HAVE MY LAPTOP IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. CHEVROLET WILL NOT ACKNOWLEDGE THERE IS A PROBLEM. IT APPEARS TO BE A BAD DESIGN OR DEFECTIVE PARTS. CAR HAS NOT BEEN IN ANY ACCIDENTS THAT I KNOW OF AND NO KIDS USUALLY RIDE IN FRONT SEAT

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CHEVROLET CAMARO. WHILE DRIVING AT 35 MPH, THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 73,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CHEVROLET CAMARO. WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, THE TONNEAU COVER USED TO SECURE THE SOFT TOP ROOF SEPARATED FROM THE VEHICLE.

AC STARTED TO BLOW OUT REALLY COLD AIR (COULD SEE THE COLD AIR COMING OUT) AND WOULD HEAR THE COMPRESSOR BEING TURNED ON AND OFF AND THEN NO MORE COLD AIR WOULD BLOW OUT. TOOK IT IN TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID IT WAS THE CONDENSER. PURCHASED A CONDENSER AND ANOTHER MECHANIC SAID THAT THE COMPRESSOR WOULD NOT TURN ON. RESEARCHED PROBLEMS AND SEEMS THAT IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE CONTROL MODULE NOT COMMUNICATING WITH COMPRESSOR TO TURN ON AND OFF. I CAN NOT FIND ANY RECALLS OR A DEALER THAT WILL REPAIR THIS OR IF THIS IS EVEN WHAT IT IS.

I WANT TO INFORM YOU THE VEHICLE DEALERSHIP BLEW ME OFF WHEN IT CAME TO GETTING MY VEHICLE RECALL COMPLETED. THE FOLLOWING IS WHAT I WENT THROUGH WITH GARBER AUTOMALL, 3340 HIGHWAY 17, GREEN COVE SPRINGS, FLORIDA TO GET THEM TO PROCESS MY VEHICLE RECALL. AS THE CONSUMER I WAS STUCK BETWEEN THE MANUFACTURER OF THE VEHICLE AND THE VEHICLE DEALERSHIP. AUGUST 2014, I RECEIVED A RECALL LETTER ON MY 2011 CHEVROLET CAMARO'S IGNITION KEY, RECALL NUMBER 14294. AT THAT TIME, I TELEPHONED GARBER AUTOMALL TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT TO GET THE RECALL COMPLETED. THEY TOLD ME THE RECALL WAS ?OPTIONAL? AND I DID NOT HAVE TO GET IT DONE, IF I DID NOT WANT TO. I RE-READ THE RECALL LETTER FROM CHEVROLET AND DID NOT FIND THE WORD ?OPTIONAL? MENTIONED. ON 28 OCTOBER 2014, I WROTE CHEVROLET, ATTN: JIM MOLONEY, GENERAL DIRECTOR, CUSTOMER & RELATIONSHIP SERVICES, POST OFFICE BOX 909989, MILWAUKEE, WI, WHO I RECEIVED THE RECALL LETTER FROM AND TOLD HIM THE DEALERSHIP IS TELLING ME THE RECALL IS ?OPTIONAL.? I DID NOT RECEIVE AN ANSWER FROM JIM MOLONEY. THEN I STARTED RECEIVING POST CARDS FROM RECALL INFORMATION PROCESSING CENTER, POST OFFICE BOX 909989, MILWAUKEE, WI, STATING THEIR RECORDS SHOWED I HAD NOT COMPLETED THE RECALL SERVICE ON MY VEHICLE. TRUE BECAUSE THE VEHICLE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THE RECALL WAS ?OPTIONAL.? ON 15 JAN 2015, I TOOK MY VEHICLE IN FOR 15,000 MILE MAINTENANCE. AGAIN, I MENTIONED MY RECALL AND WAS TOLD IT WAS ?OPTIONAL.? I TOLD THE DEALERSHIP I WANTED IT DONE BECAUSE MY RECALL PAPERWORK SAYS NOTHING ABOUT ?OPTIONAL.? ON 2 FEB 2015, I FINALLY GOT THE RECALL COMPLETED. SINCE GOING THROUGH THIS FRUSTRATION WITH MY FIRST VEHICLE RECALL, I CAN FULLY UNDERSTAND WHY CONSUMERS IGNORE VEHICLE RECALLS. I WAS READY TO PACK IT UP AND PURCHASE MYSELF A HORSE AND BUGGY. *TR
