Verbatim from NHTSA complaints, newest first

Engine

4 reports
“My car has been sitting at the dealership since July 28, 2025 due to a faulty valve body from GM. The part is apparently back ordered but it has been 2 months now with zero estimate on when the dealership will get this part to fix my car. I have had 3 loaners and being requested to take the new loaner in for my fourth loaner which takes time Out of my day constantly having to switch out cars which I have also repeatedly put gas in and ends up with more gas than when it was given to me. I’m very frustrated at the lack of answers of when my car will be fixed and given back to me as I continue making expensive car payments each month. What can be done for this frustration?”

Air bags

2 reports1 crash
“My Camaro ZL1 has 15300 miles an intermittently I’ll get an air malfunction warning on the DIC. It occurs mainly if I don’t drive the vehicle for a couple days. I have no idea if this is a legitimate concern or as electrical gremlin. I would think the air bag system is critical for safety and should be repaired under warranty”

Tires

1 report
“When I purchased my vehicle new, it was equipped with Goodyear Eagle F1 Supercar 3 tires, sized 285/30/20 in the front and 305/30/20 in the rear. After approximately 2,000 miles, the tires began exhibiting what appeared to be belt or tread separation. By approximately 5,000 miles, the vehicle had become unsafe to drive. The handling deteriorated significantly, and the car felt unstable, as though it were riding on a soft or shifting surface. Goodyear inspected the tires and determined that they were defective. Goodyear agreed to provide a partial discount toward replacement tires, but I was still required to pay the majority of the replacement cost, as well as the installation fees. After the replacement Goodyear Eagle F1 Supercar 3 tires were installed, the exact same issue occurred again at nearly the same mileage. By approximately 5,000 miles on the replacement set, the vehicle was once again unsafe to drive. The instability created several dangerous situations, and in my opinion, a less experienced or less skilled driver could easily have lost control of the vehicle or been involved in an accident. Goodyear again acknowledged that the tires were defective,…”

Back over prevention

1 report
“When the vehicle is in reverse - the grid lines are so thin and faint, they are almost invisible. This greatly affects how close I reverse to another car or object. Also in reverse: There is no warning bell or chime when I am close to an object. The grid lines should be more pronounced.”
