I have taken this vehicle to Chevrolet dealerships approx. 8 different times due to malfunction of this vehicle. I have contacted General Motors this vehicle started these problems 1 month after I purchased it when I purchased it, it only had 95 miles on it, in the mean time due to General Motors closing the case and not willing to fix the issue I have contacted the better business bureau, I have also contacted nbc news " call 12 for action" since I have purchased this vehicle in November of 2016 this vehicle has been stalling in the in traffic, the computers will go blank and when they come back on they have to reboot, as I mentioned I have taken this vehicle in 8 different times and nobody can fix the issue, I even requested a field mechanic which General Motors set up after the BBB contacted them. I took my vehicle in on June 12th and cannot get anyone to return my call the issues are still happening nbc news contacted me yesterday and asked if I had contacted the NHTSA due to this safety issue nbc news " call 12 for action" gave me this website said that they could not contact you until I had filed a complaint. Since I purchased this vehicle I have spoken with several different people at General Motors trying to get this vehicle fixed and have been getting the runaround until the BBB has got involved. These issues have taken place in the middle of traffic it has happened when just sitting in a parking lot I would be at a stop light and go to acculturate when the light turned green and it would automatically stop and the computers in the vehicle would black out. Chevrolet has tried 8 different times to fix this problem and has been unsuccessful every time. General Motors even had me take it to a different dealership they cant seem to find the safety issue with this vehicle.

2016 Camaro 2lt rs would not start 11.23.2017. After checking the battery compartment, water was found below the trunk deck lid. Dried the area out and was able to jump start vehicle. Drove 29 miles and as I neared my destination, you could smell smoke. Opened up the trunk and found smoke plus melted and singed fuses that potentially could have caught fire. Vehicle towed to capital auto group 11.24.17. Advised dealer that we would escalate due to safety concerns, but authorized repairs. Dealership later said they reviewed with GM and it did not qualify for GM customer goodwill program. They repaired the wiring and then concluded that the water leak was caused by a defective trunk seal. Repairs were completed 12.26.2017. Asked the manager to return our call, which never happened. On 1.30.2018, we called GM and opened a case with them. GM advised that the dealership did not follow protocol and GM has no record of the dealership notifying them the vehicle fuses were melted. On 3.7.2018, checked status of claim with GM and found that they closed the case. They stated that when they called the dealership, they were told the repairs had been completed, so no further investigation would was needed. I asked more than once if they were not concerned with vehicle safety and cars potentially catching fire. They stated that the repairs had been completed and they were not investigating further, even though capitol auto group did not follow GM protocol on a safety issue. I even stated 'so you are going to wait for vehicles to catch fire before this is a safety concern for GM' and received the same response. I let them know that a claim would be filed with NHTSA so this could be investigated. Vehicle was purchased 01.19.16 and was less than two years old when this occurred. Customer retained melted fuses, photos dealership provided and the repair receipts.

The cars push button start is not workimg to start the car, intermittant. The car shuts off in traffic. The cars negitive battery cable, ignition switch, were repaired but the car S hesitant to start again. The engine feels like it is going to die again whike driving. The car is hesitant on acceleration. The car was deemed a lemon November 2017 for several engine, safty, and suspension issues but General Motors is keeping this case in appeals due to non-compliance to replace the unsafe car awarded by the arbitrator.
