What owners report
Short excerpts of NHTSA complaints in the original wording. These are owner statements not verified by NHTSA; personal data removed.
I got into a Crash that destroyed the car completelt and Totaled it, But the airbags didnt come and work like it was supposed to. After The accident I got a message on MYCHEVROLET app saying theres was an issue with my airbags and I need to see a dealer.It didnt tell me before but after and I got injured In the crash…
There was no warning light illuminated. The contact stated that the failure was due to a faulty switch. The contact related the failure to GM TSB Number: 21-NA-245. The local dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure.
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.
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.
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.
2025, the check engine light came on the a code was detected from the system. P0700 - Transmission system.The car is drivable but there are times when the car does not kick into gear and stalls in the middle of traffic. From research and experience, I believe the transmission silinoid for gear 1&2 has gone bad.
The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V148000 (Power Train); however, the part to do the recall repair was unavailable. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The dealer was contacted.
The ESC system keeps going on and off and my check engine light is on the dealership told me that it needed a fuel cleaning. Went and put heet in the as told and I have done that twice now and it did not work
