Chevrolet Camaro 2015
- Date Of Incident: 2024-09-03
- Date Complaint: 2024-09-08
- VIN: 2G1FB1E36F9
- Components: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,SERVICE BRAKES
- Summary: I have purchased a 2015 Chevrolet Camaro and it has become obvious that there is an electrical issue that was not previously disclosed by the dealership. The radio and air conditioning shut off randomly while driving and it is accompanied by a loud popping sound. In addition, when pressing on the brake or using the right turn signal, the radio will also shut down completely, while the air conditioning is making a loud rumbling noise. This happens frequently and there is also a constant blinking in the lights on the front of the radio. This appears to be an electrical issue and the safety concerns are based on the premise that it can be reproduced by stepping on the brake or using the turn signal. Each of these need to be in proper working condition in order to be considered safe on the road. I am writing as after going to several shops thinking it was an issue with the radio itself, I was advised that this is a known issue with the Chevrolet Camaro. There are countless posts online with other Camaro owners complaining of the same symptoms and this defect should likely be included in a recall or repairs covered by the manufacturer. Please look into my concerns.

In this situation the trunk will not open and the top not secure warning with a alarm bell goes off. GM is aware of the issue and has done nothing. The most often reported is a bad switch for the top latch. The switch is no longer available through GM. So how can I get it fixed?

Chevrolet Camaro 2016
- Date Of Incident: 2024-04-08
- Date Complaint: 2024-08-26
- Fire: 1
- VIN: 1G1FH1R77G0
- Components: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,STRUCTURE
- Summary: Before purchasing a 2016 camaro last year I took it to a Chevrolet dealership for a safety inspection with no safety concerns found and after purchasing it around 57,000 miles went to another Chevrolet dealership to diagnose any electrical concerns occurring with the car that I noticed. There was nothing found but I still noticed humming sound and let them know and they found no concerns whatsoever. The battery was replaced twice as over the course of the year the electricals decreased in power. I then notified my insurance there was an issue with the car drawing power and it would not start. Upon checking the trunk noticed water had gotten into and possibly damaged the trunk/rear fuse block. I went through my insurance to fix any body damage but no electricals were fixed based on the insurance representative declining to accept liability for the damage and upon return of my vehicle, the repair facility started the car against my wishes and the rear fuse block in the trunk sparked and caused a fire to start in the trunk that continued for about a minute or two. Upon taking it to Chevrolet this year again after this, I was charged $800 for them to not diagnose anything but to say the x-connectors were burned up in the incident as well (I said this previously as this started the fire as it carries the currents from the fuse block) and to say they cannot find the source of the water leak/entry or replace the fuse block as the x-connectors and harness for the car, the first parts needed to be repaired to establish power to the car, have been discontinued. For more details on the cause, effects, and repair steps necessary but not been able to completed by GM/Chevrolet please refer to this service bulletin that I noticed was raised after I purchased this car upon researching the issue MULTIPLE chevrolet dealerships, ignored, didn't notice, and now are saying cannot repair and should be followed up on: 18-NA-375. Car is at ~70,000 miles currently.

Vehicle year: 2019
I've owned many Camaros over the years, but this one is by far my best purchase. The power, brakes, and drivability for the money are mind-boggling. The fuel mileage is what you'd expect for this amount of power, but it's worth it. It's a joy to drive a car that outperforms 99% of what's on the road. Plus, it's docile enough that my wife drives it to work once a week without any complaints. People often ask me about the visibility when driving, but I think you get used to it with any car. I also have a new M3, but after driving the Camaro for a while, the M3 feels like I'm sitting on top of the car. When I get back into the Camaro, it feels like I'm in the Batmobile. I feel more connected to the Camaro. I do agree with others about the paint being thin, but overall, I love it. Go GM, you did a great job!

The V6 may not be as powerful as newer models, but it still accelerates quickly enough to reach highway speeds in no time. It handles turns with ease, is fuel-efficient, and let's not forget the mandatory but nostalgic t-tops. The interior is spacious both in the front and back, and can be made even more comfortable if you're riding solo.

Vehicle year: 1996
Since buying the V6 3800 Camaro, I have to say that my opinion about six-cylinder secondary models has changed. This car delivers! It has great styling, outstanding performance, and fair quality. It is simply an amazing machine, and for the price, you can't beat it. If you are in the market for an affordable sports car without paying a high price, give the 3800 Camaro a chance. You'll be surprised by what it can do.

Vehicle year: 1999
Hi there! I noticed that you've owned a 1st and 2nd Generation Camaro in the past, and now you have a 4th Generation Camaro. It's great to hear that this one is the best of the three in terms of performance and drivability! I can tell that you really love the way it looks, handles, and drives, not to mention the acceleration, comfort, and T-tops. Your black Z28 with dark gray leather interior sounds amazing, and I'm glad to hear that the Monsoon radio sounds great too. It's awesome that the T-tops give it a convertible feel and are easy to use. It's impressive that your twenty-two-year-old beast still outruns most cars on the road today! It's great that you've only needed normal maintenance on this car so far. I agree that the 4th Generation Camaro is a lot of bang for your buck, and it's getting harder to come by, so it's definitely worth picking one up if you find a good example that's in good shape. Have you considered getting a 6-Speed version to complement your automatic? Thanks for sharing your experience with me!

Vehicle year: 2000
The Camaro Z28 is a practical, high-performance car that won't break the bank on gas. With an average of 25 MPG and over 300 HP, it's perfect for road trips with friends or family. It's even spacious enough to carry large items like china cabinets, dinette sets, or 15 bags of mulch. Plus, it's incredibly fast, going from 0 to 60 in just six seconds! The Camaro Z28 has never let us down, and even saved our lives when an SUV suddenly changed lanes without looking. Whether you're cruising with the T-tops out or keeping cool with the shades in, the Camaro Z28 is a reliable and safe choice with Rear Wheel Drive. You'll never have to worry about your tires turning, stopping, and going all at once with this car!
Are you having problems with your Chevrolet Camaro?

Hi there! I wanted to share my experience with my 2012 Camaro 2LT Convertible. Unfortunately, I did encounter some issues with the top, including rub marks and a hole that started to form. Despite reaching out to GM, there was no solution available. While the car was nice, I did feel that it was overpriced for the value. I did have the recall done, but unfortunately, the problems persisted. Ultimately, I decided to sell the car. Thanks for listening!

Despite my 40 years of experience working on GM muscle cars, this particular car with only 55 thousand miles has proven to be a lemon due to numerous electrical problems and difficulty starting. However, I am confident in my assessment of the situation.
Consuelo Fahey 2025-02-22
Vehicle year: 2019
I love my Camaro! Although my 2012 Camaro (5th gen) doesn't have navigation and the rearview mirror won't adjust due to the convertible top, it's still perfect. However, I do think the 2018 model could use some improvements. The center glovebox is practically useless and the curved dash leaves less space to get in and out of the car. Mind you, I'm only 5 foot 4 inches, so this car may not be suitable for taller individuals. I'm hopeful that Chevy will consider going back to the 5th gen interior and also placing seats that can lay back farther. The seating position in the 5th and 6th gen models isn't great. Also, I prefer the meaner face on the 2012 model. The 2018 model has a larger face for airflow, which seems a little excessive. I really miss my 1986 Camaro.
Kelley Schulist 2025-02-21
Vehicle year: 1997
The GM purists may claim that the brand died out due to this new body style, but as an owner of a 1986 and a 1997, I believe that this new design is a classic look nowadays. I get tons of looks in my screaming red ride and am constantly asked about its year, size of the motor, and more. The car is a blast to drive, although it may not be the most comfortable for those over 5 foot 9. One of the only issues is that the T-tops tend to leak and the front side markers and fog lamps go bad quickly, which can be a pain to troubleshoot for the owner. Despite the constant leaking of the T-tops, I take the good with the bad. As a bonus, nothing rattles when you put a powerful system with 800w subs in it!
Barney Bergnaum 2025-02-11
Vehicle year: 1996
Overall, I must say that my experience with the GM product was not great. I purchased the car at 80,000 miles and owned it until it stopped working at around 96,000 miles. Unfortunately, during that time, it broke down more often than it ran. It seemed like there was always something wrong with it. Although I was able to fix some issues, others would arise. When it did run, the performance was not as good as I had hoped. However, my Scion and Integra are much more enjoyable to drive. The V6 was quick enough for daily driving, but it's not a car you would want to race in. Despite the ugly stock rims, the car had a decent appearance. I particularly liked the cool T-tops and the interior was by far the best of any car I have ever owned. It came with a stylish two-tone black and red interior.
