2016 Chevrolet Camaro

CAR IS SHUTTING OFF WHILE DRIVING ON ROADWAYS. CAR NOT SHUTTING OFF WHEN PUSHING THE IGNITION BUTTON. CAR NOT STARTING AT HOME OR WHILE IN THE COMMUNITY. ALL OF THIS LEAVING ME STRANDED FOR PERIODS OF TIME OR HOLDING UP TRAFFIC. NO CODES BEING THROWN TO DASH WHICH LEADS ME TO BELIEVE SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THE COMPUTER SYSTEM. THE CHASSIS BOUNCES AND STUDDERS AS IF SOMTHING IS ABOUT TO CEESE UP AND THE DRIVE SHAFT CLUMKS. STABILITRAK LIGHT HAS BEEN FIXED SEVERAL TIMES, TRACTION CONTROL COMES ON AS WELL. NUMEROUS TIMES NOT JUST ONCE

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 CHEVROLET CAMARO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARED, THE CHECK-ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND IMMEDIATELY, THE ON-STAR SERVICE TECHNICIAN CALLED AND ASKED THE CONTACT IF HE WAS IN A CRASH. THE CONTACT RESPONDED THAT HE WAS NOT IN A CRASH AND INFORMED THE TECHNICIAN THAT THE CHECK-ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED A TRANSMISSION FAILURE AND ADVISED THE CONTACT TO GO TO THE DEALER. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER AT: MARBLE FALLS CHEVROLET, BUICK, MARBLE FALLS TX, WHERE A TRANSMISSION FAILURE WAS CONFIRMED BUT THE CONTACT WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS NO REMEDY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT IT WAS THE DEALER'S RESPONSIBILITY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 83.

I NOTICED A "SCRUBBING OR GRINDING NOISE" IN THE REAR END WHEN I FIRST GET IN THE CAR AFTER IT HAS BEEN SITTING FOR A WHILE. THE NOISE IS VERY NOTICEABLE WHEN I MAKE TURNS. THEN AFTER THE VEHICLE IS DRIVING FOR A FEW MINUTES.. IT GOES AWAY.I TOOK IT TO 2 DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS, THEY BOTH TOLD ME, IT WAS NORMAL, AND THESE PERFORMANCE CARS "HAS TO BE DRIVEN"..

VEHICLE WAS TWO MONTHS OLD WITH APPROXIMATELY 1,800 MILES AND THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL BEGAN HAVING GEAR WHINE. DEALER TOLD ME TO DRIVE IT MORE AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS. GEAR WHINE GOT LOUDER AND POSI UNIT CLUTCHES BEGAN CHATTERING. THIS RESULTED IN THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL BEING REPLACED AT 6,000 MILES. THE REPLACEMENT DIFFERENTIAL LASTED ABOUT 2,000 MILES AND BEGAN CHATTERING, SO ANOTHER DIFFERENTIAL WAS INSTALLED IN THE VEHICLE. SO WITH 8,000 MILES, I'VE HAD TWO DIFFERENTIALS REPLACED DUE TO INTERNAL PROBLEMS. THE NOISE WAS HEARD WHEN TEMPS GOT DOWN IN THE 50'S AND TURNING LEFT.

ON FRI, 26 AUGUST 2016, AT A STOP, MY CAR WOULDN'T GO INTO ANY GEAR (IT IS A 6 SPEED MANUAL). I ALMOST GOT HIT. A COP & A GOOD SAMARITAN STOPPED & FORCED THE GEAR IN 1ST AS DEALERSHIP & GM WEREN'T HELPFUL OVER THE PHONE. I IMMEDIATELY DROVE TO FLOW. THEY KEPT THE CAR FOR A WEEK & SAID THEY DID A FULL CHECK & EVERYTHING WAS OKAY. GM WAS CONTACTED BUT NOTHING WAS DONE TO FIX IT. ON SAT, 24 SEPTEMBER AT NIGHT IN A PARKING GARAGE, I CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP AND WHEN I WENT TO PUT MY CAR INTO FIRST GEAR TO PARK, AGAIN IT WOULD NOT GO INTO GEAR. I RECORDED A VIDEO OF MY FRIEND HAVING TO FORCE IT INTO GEAR AS THE GOOD SAMARITAN DID WEEKS BEFORE. ANYONE WHO VIEWS THE VIDEO CAN SEE HOW THE CAR WON'T GO IN GEAR & CAN HEAR THE NOISE IT MAKES (AS IT DID THE IN THE AUGUST SCENARIO). I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE IN THAT MON. CAR WAS KEPT FOR A WEEK. THEY CONTACTED GM & GM SAID THE SAME THING HAD BEEN HAPPENING TO OTHER 2016 CAMAROS & THE SOLUTION WAS TO FLUSH OUT OR "BLEED" SOME FLUID IN THE CLUTCH. I'M NOT A MECHANIC BUT I KNEW THIS WOULDN'T WORK. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A MECHANICAL PROBLEM. I WAS ALSO SUSPICIOUS. JUST 3 WEEKS BEFORE, GM SUPPOSEDLY HAD NO SOLUTIONS & ACTED LIKE MY CAR WAS THE ONLY ONE DOING THIS. FRI , 30 SEPT, CAR WAS RETURNED. ON SAT MORNING 1 OCT, THE SAME ISSUE HAPPENED AT A DRIVE THRU & 2 EMPLOYEES HAD TO PUSH ME IN THE PARKING LOT. NEW MANAGER SAYS THEY'LL DRIVE THE CAR TO SEE IF IT HAPPENS TO THEM & ALSO CAN TRY "ONE MORE THING".THE CAR HAS AN OBVIOUS MANUFACTER DEFECT THAT IS A SAFETY HAZARD.I CALLED GM FOR ASSISTANCE & THEY ATTTEMPTED TO CONTACT FLOW FOR MORE INFO & AFTER SEVERAL MINUTES ,RETURNED & SAID THAT THEY HAD NOT BEEN TRANSFERRED TO SERVICE & WAS TOLD FLOW SERVICE WAS"TOO BUSY" TO TALK BECAUSE THEY WERE GETTING OFF IN AN HOUR. GM NEEDS TO HONOR THEIR WARRANTY & TAKE THE TRANSMISSION APART OR REPLACE THE VEHICLE. IT'S IN THE SHOP FOR THE 3RD TIME IN 4 WEEKS.

PURCHASED 2016 CHEVROLET CAMARO ON 6/18/2016 FEW DAYS AFTER THE ENGINE WAS RUNNING VERY ROUGH, GRINDING NOISE, TRANSMISSION SHIFTING HARD, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND SPEED REDUCED TO 5 MPH SHOWED ON DISPLAY. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON SINCE THEN, I BROUGHT TO DEALER ON 7/1/2016 AND THE SERVICE MECHANIC TOOK BACK TO CHECK CODES AND INFORMED ME THAT NUMEROUS ERROR CODES WERE DETECTED AND TOLD ME TO GO AHEAD AND TAKE VEHICLE HOME BECAUSE IT WAS A HOLIDAY WEEKEND AND TO RETURN ON TUESDAY 7/5/2016 TO BE INSPECTED FOR REPAIR.
