THE CAR IS LESS THAN 5 YEARS OLD AND HAS LESS THAN 25K MI ON IT, THIS IS A WELL DOCUMENTED PROBLEM, SUCH AS NHTSA COMPLAINTS, YOUTUBE VIDEOS AND FORUMS IN WHICH PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME EXACT COMPLAINT, AMONG MULTIPLE YEARS AND MODELS OF CHEVROLET CAMARO'S. THE RADIO NEEDS TO BE REPLACED, THE ISSUE AFFECTS MULTIPLE THINGS INCLUDING SAFETY. HOWEVER AT THIS POINT WITH ALL THE COMPLAINTS GM HAS NOT PERFORMED A RECALL AND IS STATING THAT THEY WILL NOT COVER THIS UNDER A KNOWN MANUFACTURER DESIGN FLAW. THE SAFETY CONCERNS ARE THAT THE RADIO WILL FLICKER ON AND OFF, COME ON AND OFF DISABLING THE ABILITY TO CONTROL IT, WHILE MAKING VERY LOUD CRACKLING AND POPPING SOUNDS AT EXCESSIVE VOLUME, FLASHES ON AND OFF MAKING NIGHT DRIVING A HAZARD. WHILE THIS ISSUE HAPPENS IT ALSO DISABLES THE NAVIGATION, THE ONSTAR, THE HEAT/AC FAN CONTROLS AS WELL AS VOLUME CONTROLS. THERE ARE HUNDREDS AND HUNDREDS, IF NOT THOUSANDS OF FOLKS WITH THIS PROBLEM. AND AS SUCH, I HAVE ALSO RECORDED THE ISSUE WHILE IT WAS HAPPENING AND READ A MYRIAD OF REVIEWS, COMPLAINTS AND WATCHED VIDEOS. I BELIEVE THAT GM AND CHEVROLET NEED TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE. MY CAR IS EXTREMELY WELL MAINTAINED AND HAS VERY LOW MILEAGE FOR ITS AGE. WHEN THE COMPANY KNOWS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND HEARS FROM CONSUMERS AND YET DOES NOTHING ABOUT IT, IS LUDICROUS. I BELIEVE THEY SHOULD BE PERFORMING A RECALL AS THIS IS A DESIGN FLAW IN WHICH CAN COST UP TO AT LEAST 1000K TO GET REPAIRED.

Official recalls

14V409000 · Steering

Jul 2, 2014

General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2014 Buick Regal, Cadillac XTS, Chevrolet Camaro and Chevrolet Impala vehicles. Improperly torqued fasteners may cause the steering intermediate shaft and the steering gear and/or the lower control arm and the lower ball joint to separate.

Consequence & remedy

Consequence: If any of the components separate, the vehicle may have a loss of steering, increasing the risk of a crash.

Remedy: GM began to notify owners on June 27, 2014, and dealers will inspect the fasteners for correct torque, correcting them as necessary, free of charge. Owners may contact GM customer service at 1-800-521-7300 (Buick), 1-800-458-8006 (Cadillac) or 1-800-222-1020 (Chevrolet). GM's number for this recall is 14378.

14V346000 · Electrical System:ignition

Jun 20, 2014

General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling all 2010-2014 Chevrolet Camaro vehicles manufactured December 3, 2008 to May 23, 2014. In the affected vehicles, the driver may accidentally hit the ignition key with their knee, unintentionally knocking the key out of the run position, turning off the engine.

Consequence & remedy

Consequence: If the key is not in the run position, the air bags may not deploy if the vehicle is involved in a crash, increasing the risk of injury. Additionally, a key knocked out of the run position could cause loss of engine power, power steering, and power braking, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.

Remedy: GM will notify owners, and dealers will remove the key blade from the original flip key/RKE transmitter assemblies, and provide two new keys and two key rings per key. The recall began August 25, 2014. Owners may contact Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020. GM's number for this recall is 14294. Note: Until the recall has been performed, it is very important that drivers adjust their seat and steering column to allow clearance between their knee and the ignition key.

13V463000 · Equipment:other:labels

Sep 26, 2013

General Motors (GM) is recalling certain model year 2013 and 2014 Chevrolet Camaro Coupes manufactured June 9, 2013, through September 6, 2013. In the affected vehicles, the required air bag warning label on the sun visor may peel off. Thus, these vehicles fail to comply to Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 208 "Occupant Crash Protection."

Consequence & remedy

Consequence: If the air bag warning label detaches from the visor, the driver and front seat passenger may not be warned of the risks of air bag deployment, increasing the risk of injury in the event of a crash.

Remedy: GM will notify owners, and instruct owners how to inspect the visor sticker. As necessary, dealers will replace the sun visor, free of charge. The recall began on October 28, 2013. Owners may contact GM at 1-800-521-7300. GM's recall campaign number is 13284.
