2010 Chevrolet Camaro problems

“I was in an accident with a friend in [XXX] We weren't doing over 30 to 35 miles per hour when we hit a deer. All I could remember was yelling because my wrist was broken and I had bone coming out from the air bags that deployed on my side of the car. The wind shield was cracked because of this as well. My friend had to jump out of the car to disconnect the battery because the car would not shut off or stop moving. The brake and parking brake was used but couldn't get it to stop. My friend had to crawl out the side window by them to let me out of the car because neither door opened to let us out. My friend was hurt as well but not as bad as my wrist. The er doctor told me since my wrist never healed or would ever heal correctly. That iwould have to go see a hand specialist to do surgery and put pins in but wasn't a guarantee fix. Till this day I have trouble working if it requires me to pick up heavy things with that hand because I just feel the pain and how it feels like it wants to come apart. This happened in bandera Texas on [XXX]. I did make a police report and even claimed it on my insurance. I was told the car was totaled due to cost of the air bags…”

“The engine timing is wrong. The camshaft and the reluctor misalign and cause the engine to loose performance. The problem was diagnosed by a Chevrolet dealership because of the illuminated "check engine" light. This seems to be a major historical issue with these type engines produced by Chevrolet. The engine was replaced.”

“P008 CODE. TIMING CHAIN ISSUES. IF THIS FAILS AND THE ENGINE SEIZES WHILE DRIVING,ALL OF US CAMARO OWNERS COULD BE IN ACCIDENTS. DEATH COULD EVEN OCCURED. I BOUGHT MY 2010 CAMARO FEBRUARY OF 2016. I'M AM THE 2ND OWNER AND ONLY PUT 66K MILES ON THE ENGINE. 85% TO AND FROM WORK. I'VE REPLACED EVERYTHING POSSIBLE TO GET RID OF THE P008 CODE BUT IT'S STILL THERE. YOU HAVE RECALLED OTHER VEHICLES WITH THIS ISSUE WHY NOT US CAMARO OWNERS? PLEASE HELP IS!”

“The contact owns a 2010 Chevrolet Camaro. The contact stated that the vehicle failed to start after several attempts, with the check engine warning light flashing on the instrument panel. The battery was taken to an independent mechanic where the battery was checked and found to be in good working order. The battery was placed back into the vehicle where the vehicle; however, the vehicle intermittently failed to start after several attempts. Upon investigation, the contact discovered NHTSA Campaign Number: 09V155000 (Electrical System); which the contact linked to the failure. Neither the dealer nor the manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 124,000.”

“Vehicle Shipped in Unsafe Driving Condition I purchased this vehicle from Cars2us with a clear understanding that the vehicle was in good working order. I paid $500 for shipping along with $3,000 cash down. I purchased it from out of state so I had to have the vehicle shipped to my work site. When I received the vehicle off the trailer, it was borderline underivable due to the rack and pinion and power steering system being faulty. I immediately contacted the dealer and he agreed to have it repaired and advised me to “take it to a mechanic you trust”! I did so and the mechanic called me to inform me that the manager of the dealership tried to convince him to put junkyard parts on the vehicle to fix it. The mechanic was infuriated and insulted by this and advised me to contact an attorney. I paid the full amount for the repairs totaling over $2,000 because he did a job he was asked to do and rightly deserved to be paid for doing so. The mechanic and I tried multiple times to contact him for repayment and he has not paid nor responded. I have all of our conversations and will happily attach them to this email. I’m furious because the vehicle was knowingly shipped…”

“The headlight assembly has a reflective plate and has a manufactures defect that is a safety hazard. The reflective plate becomes yellow due to the heat of the HID light bulbs and causes the low beam lights to become dim and not put out the required output for safety and visibility. This part can not be replaced individually and the whole headlight assembly has to be replaced at a cost of $1200 per each side. Changing out the HID bulb with a comparable one does not increase the visibility either. I’ve taken my car to the dealership and have it on record what is wrong with it and that there is no other reason for the dim headlight other than that one defective piece. The visibility is awful.”
