My car don't want to pull when taking off. Gear shift not changing. The radio goes on and off making horrible noise like the car fina blow up. There are noises coming from my trunk or back tires sounds like my car tearing
Key gets locked in the ignition after car is put into park and even after car has been turned off. For a while the stereo will turn off and on. Lights stay flickering from time to time.
For over a year the radio in the Chevy Camaro has been malfunctioning (shutting on and off excessively), this electrical issue affects my vision when driving at night it has currently escalated to preventing turn signal audio therefore I continuously have to check to see if turn signals are working and will not know if they stop working. This is not a stand alone problem with just my Camaro and I have reviewed many owners of Camaros have the same issue. This issue occurs when in motion. Air conditioning and heater is effected at times also.
Hello im reaching out due to a safety concern with my 2014 Camaro. The VIN in located in the subject line above. I reached out to GM letting them know that I was having issues with my stereo. The speakers are also affected when the problem persists.. the car will turn on and I will be able to play anything through the stereo, like the radio, a cd, an aux cord and even sirius xm but randomly the stereo has a loud noise that screetches through the speakers which cause a great amount of discomfort. Then the stereo resets and is only able to be used via aux at a lower volume amd even way different sound quality. Its very strange and really inconvienent while driving, a few times it scared me so abruptly that I almost wrecked due to an anxiety attack. Its a well know issue with this model from years 2011-2015 if you google "Camaro stereo problems" you will see a few different web forums comparing issies with this particular one being brought uo more than anything else. GM informed me that the only way of getting to the bottom of the problem is to take it in to get a diagnostics done which is out of my price range at the moment due to covid. But anyways all that should be put to the side when it comes down to being a safety concern. Thanks in advance. I know alot of ppl would love to enjoy a normal drive without being startled by a loud guitar amp popping noise. I miss good drives while listening to music with good quality.

The contact owns a 2014 Chevrolet Camaro. The contact stated that the home screen would constantly flicker while driving at various speeds. Due to the failure, the contact was unable to view any safety alerts or hear the turn signals. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The manufacturer had been notified of the failure and referred the contact to the local dealer for assistance. The failure mileage was approximately 110,000.
The radio screen works fine, so does the bluetooth, volume knob, however, the car has lost complete sound capacity. No music, no chime start, no turn signal sound, no rear parking sensors warning sounds. Anything
The contact owns a 2014 Chevrolet Camaro. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the radio and heating system failed to operate as designed, without warning. The vehicle has not diagnosed nor repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that the VIN was not under recall. The failure mileage was approximately 76,000.
The radio makes very loud popping noise and all power cuts out to the display, turn signals, heating/cooling functions. This happens repeatedly every time driving the vehicle. The triggers are using the power windows, using turn signal, adjusting heat/ac, or putting the vehicle into reverse. Not only is it inconvenient to not have radio or heat/ac. It is also a safety hazard to not have turn signals and have very loud and distracting popping noises while driving. I have heard from other Camaro owners and every one of this model has the same issue around 40,000 miles.
Can not remove key from ignition when shutting off. Have to start vehicle multiple times and move gear selector multiple times before I get the key out. Car is in park. Unsafe to leave vehicle unlocked with key in ignition because it will not come out
When I turn the vehicle off, the key will not rotate to the lock position, and car only has 24,000 miles on it. After moving the gear selector many times from drive to park the key finally rotates to the locked position to allow removal of the key. During this summer the issue has been getting worse and worse, to the point I am afraid to drive the vehicle anywhere. I have also noticed when you enter the vehicle and just rotate the key to run position, it will lock up as well, not allowing the key to rotate back into the lock position. Then have to cycle the shifter for the tranny from park to drive multiple times to get it to rotate in to the lock positino for I can remove the key..
Key keeps getting stuck in the ignition when I try to turn my car off.. I have to keep starting and restarting my car and swivel steering wheel until it comes out.
While driving on the highway, my car's electronics shut off. The speedometer, tachometer, turn signals, hud unit, and radio stopped working but the car was still running and could be driven normally (responded to gas, steering was fine etc). I could not put the rear passenger window up but all of the other windows opened and closed. The convertible top would not work. After parking and restarting a few times the problem went away but eventually came back and happens all the time. I have made an appointment with the dealership to check this out. The following warnings display on the display: Service theft deterrent system service airbag service parking assistant service tire monitor system open, then close passenger window
Several electrical components fail while driving down the road. The turn signals stop working, the radio shuts off, the heads up display turns off, the speedometer turns off and the tachometer stops working. The car still runs and responds to the gas and brake pedals and the steering continues to work. This is extremely dangerous and very confusing and scary while driving the car. The radio stops and then turns back on. After looking this up on line, this appears to be a wide spread issue that GM needs to address and recall the components causing the issue.
Turn signal stop working, along with radio shutting off and on erratically, loud popping noises over speaker when using turn signals, radio cones on and off when applying brakes
