2017 Chevrolet Camaro

HELLO! I WANT TO REPORT GM ON THE INFAMOUS 8L45 TRANSMISSION SHUDDER. I HAVE HAD THE FLUID CHANGED IN 2018, THE TORQUE CONVERTER CHANGED IN 2018, AND THE FLUID FLUSHED WITH THE NA-18-355 BULLETIN BACK LAST YEAR. ALTHOUGH THE SHUDDER HASN'T RETURNED. I DON'T TRUST THAT THIS TRANSMISSION SHOWS QUALITY. I WORRY THAT THIS WILL LAST UNTIL OUR WARRANTIES ARE UP AND WE'RE ON OUR OWN. THIS NOT ACCEPTABLE. THIS IS A WEAK POINT OF THIS AMAZING CAR. I HAD ROUGH SHIFTING AND I'VE HAD SHIFTS THAT BUCKED. THIS IS NOT SAFE. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL OR GM SHOULD GIVE EVERYONE A LONGER WARRANTY ON THESE TRANSMISSIONS.

THE CAR SHUT OFF AND THEN WOULDN'T START. HAD ENGINE REPLACED BECAUSE THE ENGINE WAS LOCKED UP. RECENTLY RECEIVED THE VEHICLE AND GAUGE CLUSTER SHUTS DOWN COMPLETELY WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE ALONG WITH INFOTAINMENT SYSTEM. WHEN IT TURNS BACK ON SCREEN SHOWS: SERVICE STIBILLITRAC, ABS SYSTEM, BATTERY SYSTEM, ENGINE OIL LOW, ENGINE REDUCED POWER, REDUCE CLUTCH USE, AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. HAD NO POWER STEERING, NO ACCELERATION, AND HAD LOSS OF BRAKES.

STEERING WHEEL TORQUE SENSOR FAILED OPEN CAUSING LOSS OF POWER STEERING. ERROR CODE C0545. THERE IS AN ACTIVE GM FACTORY RECALL FOR POWER STEERING FAILURE, RECALL NUMBER: N182182760 AND NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V086000. UNFORTUNATELY, MY VIN WAS NOT PART OF THAT RECALL. POWER STEERING FAILURE OCCURRED AT 27,280 MILES ON VEHICLE. MY VEHICLE IS A 2017 CHEVY CAMARO SS CONVERTIBLE. THE FAILURE OCCURRED WHILE SITTING AT A STOP LIGHT ON NAVAL STATION NORFOLK IN NORFOLK VA. A MESSAGE FLASHED ON THE CONSOLE READING SERVICE POWER STEERING, DRIVE WITH CARE. AT THAT POINT STEERING THE CAR AT LOW SPEED REQUIRED SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF FORCE TO TURN THE STEERING WHEEL. FORTUNATELY, THE FAILURE DID NOT OCCUR WHILE THE CAR WAS IN MOTION OR ON AN ON/OFF RAMP OR IN TRAFFIC AS IT COULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT.

I TOOK MY 2017 CHEVY CAMARO TO TOM BELL CHEVY LOCATED IN REDLANDS CALIFORNIA THEY REPLACED THE SOFT TOP ON MY CAR BECAUSE OF A RECALL. WHEN I GOT HOME I NOTICED THAT THE SOFT TOP WAS MAKING NOISES WHEN IT WAS GOING UP AND AS I WAS CLOSING IT. WHEN I LOOKED TO SEE WHAT THE NOISE WAS, I SAW THAT THE ARMS THAT RAISE THE SOFT TOP UP AND DOWN WERE COMPLETELY BROKEN. I CONTACTED TOM BELL CHEVY IMMEDIATELY AND WAS TOLD TO CONTACT THE 'UPHOLSTERY GUY' WHO I'VE NEVER MET IN MY LIFE. THEY GAVE ME A NUMBER TO CALL AND TOLD ME THAT THE PERSON OR COMPANY THEY USED TO REPLACE THE SOFT TOP THAT WAS RECALLED ON MY 2017 CAMARO WOULD COME TO MY HOME AND FIX THE ISSUE. IT HAS BEEN NOW MONTHS AND NO ONE HAS EVER CAME TO FIX IT NOR HAS TOM BELL CHEVY IN REDLANDS CALIFORNIA CALLED ME BACK. I E LEFT VOICEMAIL AFTER VOICEMAIL, EMAILED THEM MANY TIMES AND SENT TEXTS AND CALLED THE UPHOLSTERY PEOPLE BUT NO ONE HAS RETURNED MY CALLS OR EMAILS. THE VEHICLE IS DAMAGED AND IT WAS DONE BY WHOMEVER DID THE RECALL REPLACEMENT ON THE SOFT TOP. ALSO, THE SOFT TOP THAT MY VEHICLE WAS REPLACED WITH IS NASTY, VERY VERY CHEAP MATERIAL AND WHILE DRIVING THE CAR IT FEELS LIKE THE ENTIRE CAR IS GOING TO FLIP OVER BECAUSE OF HOW THIN AND CHEAP MATERIAL THE SOFT TOP WAS REPLACED WITH. I NEED SOMEONE TO CONTACT ME IMMEDIATELY SO THAT THIS ISSUE CAN GET FIXED. I WOULD HATE TO CONTACT MY ATTORNEY SO I HOPE THAT THIS GETS FIXED IMMEDIATELY BECAUSE IT'S BEEN ALMOST A YEAR NOW SINCE THE SOFT TOP AND CONTROL ARMS/MOTOR WERE REPLACED AND NO ONE HAS CONTACTED ME AND I'M BEING IGNORED. THE VIN NUMBER IS [XXX] REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *CC
