TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 CHEVROLET CAMARO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REDUCED POWER ENGINE SHUT OFF WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE FAILURES OCCURRED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. ON ONE OCCASION, THE VEHICLE STALLED CAUSING THE CONTACT TO LOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND CRASH INTO A MEDIAN. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO RESTART. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THE DRIVER SUSTAINED MINOR PHYSICAL INJURIES THAT DID NOT REQUIRE MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A DEALER.

AS MY 2012 CAMARO HAS BEEN ISSUED A VIN RECALL, I WANT TO LET CHEVROLET, THE PUBLIC AT LARGE AND MY LOCAL CHEVY DEALERSHIP IN COLORADO THAT I AM UTTERLY DISGUSTED WITH THE OFFERED TREATMENT OF THIS RECALL STATED AS "REMEDY: DEALERS ARE TO PROVIDE TWO REPLACEMENT KEY RINGS. VEHICLES WITH SLOTTED KEYS WILL ALSO RECEIVE KEY INSERTS." MY REASONS FOR NOT BEING SATISFIED WITH THIS DESCRIPTION IS BECAUSE HAVING MY KEYS CUT OFF THE REMOTE CONTROL AND GIVEN SECONDARY KEYS AS ANOTHER THING TO KEEP TRACK OF IS NOT WHAT WAS PAID FOR WHEN PURCHASING THE VEHICLE. WHY SHOULD I SETTLE FOR A FIX (THAT IS SUBSTANDARD TO WHAT ORIGINALLY CAME WITH THE VEHICLE)? WHY SHOULD I SETTLE FOR WHATEVER GM DECIDES TO GIVE ME AS REPLACEMENT IN ORDER FOR THEM TO COMPLY WITH THAT WHICH THEY SHOULD HAVE COMPLIED WITH TO BEGIN WITH? IN MY EYES, CHEVROLET IS SEEKING A QUICK FIX IN ORDER FOR THEM TO SAVE DOLLARS AND WHAT DO I GET IN RETURN FOR THE THOUSANDS I PAID THEM? I GET A SUBSTANDARD REPLACEMENT OF A NECESSARY ITEM. A COSMETIC DEBACLE SO THAT CHEVY CAN COMPLY WITH THE 465,000 VEHICLES THEY CONTINUED TO ALLOW ON THE ROAD "AS IS" UNTIL CAUGHT BY THE LAW. NOW I ASK, WHAT WILL THIS DO TO THE VALUE OF THE VEHICLE DOWN THE ROAD? CHEVROLET OWES ME EXACTLY WHAT I PAID FOR: BRAND NEW IGNITION WITH BRAND NEW REMOTE CONTROL KEYS JUST AS THEY ARE WHEN PURCHASED WITH THE VEHICLE. A REMEDY SHOULD BE AN IMPROVEMENT NOT INSTEAD, 3 STEPS BACKWARD. I AM THOROUGHLY DISGUSTED ABOUT THIS RECALL REMEDY AND WITH CHEVROLET'S POOR DECISION MAKING VALUES. *TR

ON 9/13/2014, MY WIFE DROVE MY 2012 CHEVY CAMARO ZL11 TO HER DADS, WHEN SHE LEFT SHE PULLED OUT OF HIS DRIVE WAY AND STOPPED AT STOP SIGN, SHE TOOK OFF IN FIRST GEAR SHE SAID WHEN SHE SHIFTED THE CAR INTO SECOND GEAR THE CAR JUST TOOK OFF SHE SAID IT ACTED LIKE SOMETHING JUST TOOK OVER, LIKE A CRUISE CONTROL, EXCEPT NO MATTER WHAT SHE DID INCLUDING HITTING THE BRAKE THE CONTINUED TO INCREASE IN SPEED, KEEP IN MIND THIS CAR HAS A 6 SPEED STANDARD TRANSMISSION, MEANING SHE HAD ONE FOOT ON THROTTLE AND ONE FOOT ON CLUTCH WHEN THIS HAPPENED UNLIKE AUTOMATIC WHERE YOU COULD HAVE HIT GAS INSTEAD OF BRAKE, MY WIFE HAS NEVER HAD AN ACCIDENT OR A SPEEDING TICKET, I BELIEVE SOMETHING HAPPENED, WITH ALL THIS BEING SAID 17 DAYS LATER SHE IS IN ICU WITH 2 BROKEN BONES IN HER BACK AND A PIECE OF BROKEN BONE LODGED NEXT TO HER SPINE, THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED NEXT TIME IT COULD BE A HOLE FAMILY. THE CAR HAS BEEN CONSIDERED TOTAL LOSS, BUT I HAVE NOT RELEASED THE CAR TO INSURANCE COMPANY AT THIS TIME. *TR

I STARTED TO HAVE AN ISSUE WITH THE IGNITION IN MY CAR. AT ALL DIFFERENT TIMES THE KEY WOULD STICK AND NOT TURN IN THE CAR. I BROUGHT IT IN AND TOLD HEM AND THEY AID IT WAS THE WAY I WAS STARTING IT. THAT THE WHEELS WERE NOT STRAIGHT. THIS WAS NOT THE CASE AS IT HAPPENED AT ALL DIFFERENT TIMES AND I NOW THE WHEELS NEED TO BE STRAIGHT. I CONTINUED TO HAVE PROBLEMS UNTIL THIS DAY. A FEW MONTHS AGO WHEN I WAS AT A DEALERSHIP IN FL WHERE I MOVED I HAD SUCH A BAD EXPERIENCE AND NO HELP FOR A CONTINUED BREAK ISSUES I PRINTED PAPERWORK TO FILE FOR A LEMON LAW YET HAVE NOT PURSUED THIS AS OF NOW. TODAY I RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL ON THE IGNITION. THIS IS VERY TROUBLING TO ME AS I HAVE SAID SINCE MY CAR WAS NEW THAT THERE WAS SOMETHING SERIOUSLY WRONG WITH THIS IN MY CAR YET NO ONE WOULD HELP ME. NOW WITH THE RECALL NOTICE AND THE BRAKE ISSUE I AM WANTING TO PURSUE THE LEMON LAW. PLEASE ADVISE ON WHAT I SHOULD DO. *TR

I PULLED OUT OF MY PARKING PLACE AT MY CONDOMINIUMS. I COULD NOT GET MY CAR TO STOP. THE BRAKES WERE NOT WORKING. THIS HAS HAPPENED MANY TIMES OVER THE YEARS SINCE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. I HAVE TAKEN IT INTO THE DEALERSHIPS IN MY AREA ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS BUT THEY HAVE TOLD ME THEY WILL ONLY FIX IT IF IT DOES IT WHILE IT IS IN THEIR CARE. I HAVE OTHER PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN DRIVING MY CAR WHEN IT HAS HAPPENED BUT IT HAS NOT HAPPENED WHILE I HAVE BEEN AT THE DEALERSHIP. THE MOST RECENT OCCURRENCE HAPPENED AND I RAN INTO POLL AND MY BUMPER NOW NEEDS TO BE REPLACE. *TR
