My 2014 Chevrolet the radio /air conditioning and a/c controls,overhead lightning and now the blinkers are popping cracking lighting up my electronics in the center console and it is very scary. The a/c clicks on and off my turn signals are effected and now I am having to get a jump to start my car and I have a 1 year new battery. I am afraid with this going on and it is a known problem for this car.

HELLO IM REACHING OUT DUE TO A SAFETY CONCERN WITH MY 2014 CAMARO. THE VIN IN LOCATED IN THE SUBJECT LINE ABOVE. I REACHED OUT TO GM LETTING THEM KNOW THAT I WAS HAVING ISSUES WITH MY STEREO. THE SPEAKERS ARE ALSO AFFECTED WHEN THE PROBLEM PERSISTS.. THE CAR WILL TURN ON AND I WILL BE ABLE TO PLAY ANYTHING THROUGH THE STEREO, LIKE THE RADIO, A CD, AN AUX CORD AND EVEN SIRIUS XM BUT RANDOMLY THE STEREO HAS A LOUD NOISE THAT SCREETCHES THROUGH THE SPEAKERS WHICH CAUSE A GREAT AMOUNT OF DISCOMFORT. THEN THE STEREO RESETS AND IS ONLY ABLE TO BE USED VIA AUX AT A LOWER VOLUME AMD EVEN WAY DIFFERENT SOUND QUALITY. ITS VERY STRANGE AND REALLY INCONVIENENT WHILE DRIVING, A FEW TIMES IT SCARED ME SO ABRUPTLY THAT I ALMOST WRECKED DUE TO AN ANXIETY ATTACK. ITS A WELL KNOW ISSUE WITH THIS MODEL FROM YEARS 2011-2015 IF YOU GOOGLE "CAMARO STEREO PROBLEMS" YOU WILL SEE A FEW DIFFERENT WEB FORUMS COMPARING ISSIES WITH THIS PARTICULAR ONE BEING BROUGHT UO MORE THAN ANYTHING ELSE. GM INFORMED ME THAT THE ONLY WAY OF GETTING TO THE BOTTOM OF THE PROBLEM IS TO TAKE IT IN TO GET A DIAGNOSTICS DONE WHICH IS OUT OF MY PRICE RANGE AT THE MOMENT DUE TO COVID. BUT ANYWAYS ALL THAT SHOULD BE PUT TO THE SIDE WHEN IT COMES DOWN TO BEING A SAFETY CONCERN. THANKS IN ADVANCE. I KNOW ALOT OF PPL WOULD LOVE TO ENJOY A NORMAL DRIVE WITHOUT BEING STARTLED BY A LOUD GUITAR AMP POPPING NOISE. I MISS GOOD DRIVES WHILE LISTENING TO MUSIC WITH GOOD QUALITY.

THE RADIO MAKES VERY LOUD POPPING NOISE AND ALL POWER CUTS OUT TO THE DISPLAY, TURN SIGNALS, HEATING/COOLING FUNCTIONS. THIS HAPPENS REPEATEDLY EVERY TIME DRIVING THE VEHICLE. THE TRIGGERS ARE USING THE POWER WINDOWS, USING TURN SIGNAL, ADJUSTING HEAT/AC, OR PUTTING THE VEHICLE INTO REVERSE. NOT ONLY IS IT INCONVENIENT TO NOT HAVE RADIO OR HEAT/AC. IT IS ALSO A SAFETY HAZARD TO NOT HAVE TURN SIGNALS AND HAVE VERY LOUD AND DISTRACTING POPPING NOISES WHILE DRIVING. I HAVE HEARD FROM OTHER CAMARO OWNERS AND EVERY ONE OF THIS MODEL HAS THE SAME ISSUE AROUND 40,000 MILES.

THE LACK OF BLINKER SOUND LEADS ME TO WONDER IF THE BLINKERS EVEN WORK WHEN THIS HAPPENS. THIS PROBLEM RANDOMLY HAPPENS AND WHEN IT DOES, IT'S VERY DISTRACTING AND THE LOUD POP NOISE IS EXTREMELY UPSETTING. I HAVE FOUND ON NUMEROUS FORUMS THAT THIS SEEMS TO BE A MAJOR ISSUE WITH THE CHEVY CAMARO AND GM DOESN'T SEEM CONCERNED. I BELIEVE THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. IT FIRST HAPPENED TO MY CAR ON DEC. 5, 2019 AND HAS CONTINUED TO RANDOMLY HAPPEN SINCE.

THE KEY TO MY IGNITION GETS STUCK WHEN I ATTEMPT TO TURN THE ENGINE OFF. IT TAKES ALMOST 30 MINUTES TO AN HOUR FOR THE IGNITION TO RELEASE THE KEY. IN ADDITION, IT HAPPENS EVERY TIME I TRY TO TAKE THE KEY OUT OF THE IGNITION. I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP IN REGARDS TO THE ISSUE AS WELL AS CALLED GENERAL MOTORS DIRECTLY. I HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY RESULTS FROM BOTH OPTIONS. I HAVE BEEN RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE IN WHICH I FOUND THAT I AM NOT THE ONLY PERSON WHO IS HAVING THIS TROUBLE. ALMOST EVERY ONE WITH A CAMARO HAS A PROBLEM GETTING THEIR KEY OUT OF THE IGNITION. NOT ONLY IS MY BATTERY DRAINING AND I AM HAVING TO GET THE BATTERY JUMPED, BUT IT IS VERY UNSAFE. MY CAR IS MY ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION IN WHICH I HAVE TO DRIVE ONE HOUR PLUS TO WORK EVERYDAY AS WELL AS TAKE MY CHILD TO SCHOOL. THE KEY GETS STUCK AT ALL TIMES. I AM AT RISK FOR HAVING MY CAR STOLEN AND EVEN WORSE BEING STRANDED, AS WELL AS MY CHILD, TRYING TO GET THE IGNITION TO RELEASE THE KEY. IT IS VERY DRAINING HAVING TO WAIT LONG HOURS TO GET THE KEY OUT OF THE CAR. I AM ALSO PARANOID THAT THE CAR WILL BE STOLEN WHEN HAVING TO LEAVE THE CAR FOR 30 PLUS MINUTES JUST TO COME BACK AND HAVE THE KEY RELEASED. THIS IS A PRESSING ISSUE AS IT IS DEFINITELY A MANUFACTURERS ISSUE. IT IS INTERFERING WITH ME WHEN I GO TO THE GROCERY STORE, WORK, MY CHILD'S SCHOOL, AND EVERY OTHER PLACE THAT I HAVE TO TRAVEL TO DAILY. THE ISSUE PRESENTED ITSELF AT THE BEGINNING OF JANUARY AND TENDS TO ONLY HAVE GOTTEN WORST.

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.
