2011 Chevrolet Camaro Problems

they still havent replaced my airbag yet why is this even posable14 years yes 14 years to replace a national recall very unexctable get on them

I was driving home and a truck overpassed me on a loose sand area causing me to have to make a sudden brake and my car due to the loose sand and rocks sing around and hit a power pole and the impact to the power pole that was on the corner bounced me car back and my car did a flip and it landed on its front bumper and ultimately rolled over 4 times down a hill and landed on all four tires during the impact front airbags did not deploy my whole entire front dash board exploded and fragments flew everywhere once my car festered to roll the side airbags dropped but did not inflate, at the moment that my car hit the pole my driver seat physically came out of place and and even with my seat belt on it throw me to my backseat and caused the seat belt to me twisted around me, this same issue was allegedly fixed by three way Chevy I had made a report during the time frame of June2023 when three way failed to fix my recall and fraudulently reported the recall repaired yet said no work was done to my car I was in contact with u guys already and this is unfortunately proof that supports my initial report to you from 2023 and need this investigation reopened

The contact owns a 2011 Chevrolet Camaro. The contact stated while driving at 35 MPH, the engine shut off without warning. The vehicle failed to restart as intended, leaving the driver stranded in the middle of the road. Several unknown warning lights were illuminated. A police officer noticed that the contact was in distress and assisted in pushing the vehicle into the nearby parking lot. The vehicle was then towed to the contact's residence. The vehicle had yet to be diagnosed or repaired. Neither the dealer nor the manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 144,000.

Car has new engine and transmission everything is new and well maintained, p2138 pops up throttle quits working causing me to almost wreck into another vehicle, I was stuck in traffic 1 hour waiting for a tow truck, 7 shops have worked on the issue and replaced every part including all the technical service bulletins provided here on the site and car is still doing the same thing. The electric system in the car is prone to these issue as is the ecm . Now it's either sell the car to someone with it being unsafe or spend another couple grand hoping to get it repaired. Chevys drive by wire system is a known issue with these cars yet no recall, why, why not recall and repair the issue or is our safety not a issue

When someone sits in the passenger seat the airbag light/alarm goes on and off. My mechanic said I would need to take it to the dealer. I called dealer and they would need to diagnose if it is the seat belt or the seat weight sensor. Can cost upwards of $900. I just can't afford that. They should recall since I've researched so many complaints on this issue.

STABILITRAK SERVICE LIGHT IS ON AND ITS REDUCING POWER WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY TURNING OFF TO GET SOME GAS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CHEVROLET CAMARO. WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, THE TONNEAU COVER USED TO SECURE THE SOFT TOP ROOF SEPARATED FROM THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO INDICATED THAT THE COVER ATTACHMENT WAS FAULTY AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 12,000. UPDATED 6/4/5*CN

I WAS GOING TO WORK AS I CAME DOWN THE OFF RAMP I LOST ALL POWER AND HIT A POLE THERE WAS MASSIVE DAMAGE TO THE FRONT END AND TO THE ENGINE ALSO I NEVER RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE I DID NOT FIND OUT ABOUT THE RECALL UNTIL I LOOKED UP ON THE INTERNET WHAT MAY HAVE HAPPENED ALSO MY AIR BAGS NEVER DEPLOYED. *TR

Air bags

THE STEERING WHEEL ALWAYS SHAKES AND GRINDS. THE BRAKES SQUEAL FOR NO REASON. THE ENGINE MAKES A LOUD NOISE AND SOUNDS LOUDER AT RUNNING NOW, I HADE IT LOOKED AT AND THEY SAID NOTHING IS WRONG THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG IT USES WAY TO MUCH GAS AND IT MAKES TO MANY NOISES. THE ENGINE JUST DOES NOT SOUND GOOD AND IT MAKES A LOUD GROUNDING NOISE.

THE AIRBAG NEED SERVICE ALERT CAME ON WHILE MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING AND I ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. THE NEXT MORNING I CALLED IVORY CHEVROLET AND WAS TOLD THE EARLIEST I COULD BE SEEN WAS MONDAY @ 8:30AM ,BECAUSE THEY ONLY HAD ONE PERSON THAT COULD FIX THE PROBLEM. I ARRIVED @ 7:45AM. AT 9:00AM I WAS ASKED, WHAT'S MY ISSUE AND AT 11:00 I ASKED WHY IT WAS TAKING SO LONG FOR A DIAGNOSTIC AND WAS TOLD SOMEONE WILL CHECK. GUY APPROACH ME @ 12:00 AND ADVICE ME THAT THEY RESET THE SENSOR AND TO KEEP MY PURSE OUT OF THE CAR SEAT. THREE DAYS LATER THE AIRBAG ALERT & TIRE ALERT CAME ON. ONSTAR SYSTEM DO NOT SHOW DATA FOR THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE TIRE. I SPOKE WITH A SERVICEMAN @ IVORY AND WAS TOLD TO COME BACK IN. I REALLY DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THERE ISN'T A RECALL ON THIS ISSUE AND REQUEST AN EXPLANATION. *JS

I HAD JUST PURCHASED THIS CAMARO IN FEBRUARY, NOT KNOWING THAT THESE TIRES WERE NOT TO BE USED IN COLD WEATHER. WE HAD SOME VERY COLD WEATHER IN THE LAST PART OF FEBRUARY AND I DECIDED TO TAKE THE CAMARO TO WORK. WHEN I ENTERED THE PAVED ROAD IT STARTED TO SPIN THE TIRES ON THE PAVEMENT. THERE WAS NO MOISTURE ON THE ROADS AND NO REASON TO LOOSE TRACTION. WHEN I GOT HOME I RESEARCHED THIS PROBLEM ON LINE AND FOUND OUT ABOUT THE TIRES BEING WARM WEATHER TIRES ONLY. I THINK CHEVROLET SHOULD REPLACE THE TIRES WITH ALL WEATHER TIRES. PS TIRES WERE NOT LISTED I HAD TO USE UNKNOWN OR OTHER TO BE ABLE TO USE THIS SITE. THANKS *TR

ON THE 2010-2014 CAMARO THERE IS A MAJOR PROBLEM WITH THE HVAC BLEND/VALVE DOOR. THE ELECTRIC ACTUATOR CONNECTS TO THE DEFECTIVE BLEND/VALVE DOOR IT APPEARS TO BE MADE OF ABS OR SOME TYPE OF PLASTIC. THE MAIN CONCERN IS THAT IN COLD OR RAINY WEATHER THE FRONT DEFROST WILL NOT WORK ALLOWING WINDSHIELD TO FOG UP OBSTRUCTING THE VIEW WHERE THERE IS NO VISIBILITY WHILE DRIVING. THIS IS A SERIOUS AND DANGEROUS PROBLEM TO THE MOTORIST. THIS NOT A NORMAL WEAR PART. CHEVROLET HAS NOT OFFERED ANY TYPE OF WARRANTY TO REPAIR THE DEFECTIVE PRODUCT BUT WILL CHARGE $2700.00- $3500 TO REPLACE A $14.00 PART. THIS CAUGHT ME OF GUARD A COUPLE OF TIMES IN RAINY WEATHER I HAD TO USE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR WINDOW AND MIRROR TO PULL OFF THE HIGHWAY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 CHEVROLET CAMARO. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THERE WAS AN ODOR OF COOLANT INSIDE THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEATER CORE FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 46,000.

WHEN DRIVING DOWN NORTHWEST EXPRESSWAY, MY CAMARO HIT MANY POTHOLES AND UNEVEN LANES CAUSING MY RIMS TO BE BENT AND CAUSING FLAT TIRE. CAR WAS GOING SPEED LIMIT OF 45 AND HIT A HUGE POTHOLE AND IT SOUNDED VERY BAD. PARKED MY VEHICLE AT WORK AND TIRE WAS FLAT AND RIM WAS BENT IN 3 DIFFERENT PLACES.

THE DRIVERS FRONT WHEEL HAS A REALLY FUNNY FEEL WHEN TURNING LEFT IT DONT FEEL RIGHT.?MY TIRE SENCORS ARE NOT WORKING ON THE DASH JUST 1 TIRE WORKS AND TELLS ME THE AIR PRESURE SINCE I HAD THE CAR IN 2017?

ON AUGUST 18TH 2020. I WAS INTERESTED IN BUYING THIS 2011 CAMARO FROM TS AUTO SALES IN ORLANDO FLORIDA. THE SALESMAN NAME IS [XXX]. I ASKED HIM IF THERE WAS ANY EXTENSIVE DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE? HE SAID THE DRIVER SIDE WAS HIT AND IT WAS REPLACED. I ASKED HIM IF THERE WAS ANYTHING ELSE? HE SAID NO. AFTER I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. I LATER FOUND OUT, THAT HE WAS NOT BEING TRUTHFUL WITH ME. I LOOKED THE VEHICLE UP, AND FOUND THAT THE AIR BAGS HAD BEEN DEPLOYED. WHICH IS A MAJOR SAFETY VIOLATION. I ALSO ASKED HIM WHY THE BATTERY WAS BEING DRAINED. HE SAID IT JUST NEED TO BE CHARGED. I TOOK THE CAR TO A STEVE'S AUTO ELECTRIC IN CLERMONT FLORIDA. THE TECHNICIAN TOLD ME THAT THE AIR BAGS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. AT THE COST OF $3,500. THIS IS A REBUILD ABLE TITLE. YOU CAN NOT GET THIS VEHICLE INSPECTED IF ALL OF THE REPAIRS ARE NOT DONE, AND YOU MUST HAVE RECEIPTS FOR EVERY PART THAT WAS REPAIRED, OR REPLACED. THIS IS A VERY UNSAFE VEHICLE. TO MY UNDERSTANDING. IT'S THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE DEALERSHIP TO MAKE ANY MAJOR REPAIRS BEFORE SELLING A VEHICLE.

The fuel system on the 2011 Chevy Camaro leaks due to faulty fuel system equipment exactly identical to Recall Number: N192271870 / NHTSA 19V667.

February 16, 2024 Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to bring to your urgent attention a potentially life-threatening issue regarding the 2011 SS Chevrolet Camaro. It has come to my attention, through personal experience and extensive research, that a hazardous situation exists due to a leaking gas tank in this vehicle model. Despite the gravity of this issue, the car's diagnostic system fails to detect any loss of fuel pressure or sense any fuel vapors, leaving unsuspecting drivers at serious risk. General Motors, particularly its Chevrolet division, has not issued any notice regarding defective fuel systems in the aforementioned vehicle model. This negligence is alarming, as the repercussions of such a flaw can be catastrophic, endangering human lives and personal property. Given the severity of this matter and the potential for serious injuries or fatalities, immediate action is imperative. It is my belief that this issue could affect model years ranging from 2009 to 2015, amplifying the urgency for intervention. One possible cause of this perilous defect could be attributed to the poor quality or substandard material of the fuel pump O-ring. Such a flaw constitutes a recipe for disaster and demands swift resolution. Furthermore, it is apparent that General Motors may be aware of this issue but has chosen not to address it, likely due to concerns about negative product branding and the associated costs of rectifying the problem. However, prioritizing profit over public safety is unacceptable and morally reprehensible. In light of the foregoing, I implore both the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and General Motors to take immediate and decisive action to rectify this hazardous situation. Lives are at stake, and the responsibility to ensure the safety of consumers falls squarely on the shoulders of both the manufacturer and the regulatory bo

Gains speed on mild downhills. Request a feature to be called "Brake Saver" on all automatic transmissions. Depressing Brake downshifts if RPMs are low enough to reduce speed (2000-2500RPM, so next gear does not exceed 3600RPM). Taking foot off gas sets coasting maximum speed. If speed rises 5 km/hr 3 mi/hr the transmission downshifts to reduce speed to the speed the foot came off the gas pedal. Especially useful on Semis with Automatic transmissions.

2011 CHEVY CAMARO LESS THAN 10,000K MILES. DRIVING IN TRAFFIC IN MAYBE A 1% GRADE HILL. BURNING SMELL, THE CAR WOULDN'T CATCH IN 1ST OR 2ND GEAR. LOST ALL ACCELERATION, HAD TO CROSS MULTIPLE LANES ON THE HIGHWAY. SAT IN THE CAR FOR OVER 2 HOURS FOR TOWING COMPANY. THEN SHOP TEST DROVE NEXT DAY, GEARS WORK, BUT BAD BURNING SMELL CONTINUES. SHIPPED TO CHEVROLET. I DID RESEARCH ONLINE AND SEE MULTIPLE PEOPLE HAVE THIS PROBLEM. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND IT PLACED MY LIFE INTO DANGER! *TR

THE HEADLIGHTS ON MY CAMARO 2SS WITH HID HEADLIGHTS HAVE GOTTEN SO DIM THAT I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR AT NIGHT BECAUSE THE CAR DOESN'T LIGHT UP THE ROAD AT ALL. I ONLY USE IT DURING THE DAY. IF I NEED TO GO SOMEWHERE AT NIGHT I HAVE TO USE MY OTHER VEHICLE. I WENT TO THE LOCAL CHEVROLET DEALER AND WAS TOLD IT WAS $125.00 TO SEE WHAT IS GOING ON. I'VE READ ALL OVER THE INTERNET THAT EVERYONE THAT HAS THESE CARS ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. I THINK THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL ON THESE LIGHTS SO WE CAN BE SAFE WITHOUT HAVING TO SPEND $1500.00 TO REPLACE BOTH HEADLIGHTS.

AS I SEARCH THE WEB FOR MY HVAC PROBLEM AND LEARN THERE IS A DEFECT WITH HVAC BLEN DOORS. EITHER YOUR VEHICLE IS EXTREMELY COLD OR HOT OR POSSIBLY HOT ON ONE SIDE AND COLD ON THE OTHER. THE UNCONTROLLED HEAT CAN PUT YOU TO SLEEP BEHIND THE WHEEL ON DRIVING TRIP. I BELIEVE GM IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM BUT REFUSE TO RECALL. THIS NOT A NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR PART. THERE OUR THOUSANDS OF CAMARO OWNERS WITH THIS PROBLEM AND THE DEALERSHIP IS CHARGING UP TO 3000.00 TO REPAIR. HOPE YOU CAN HELP!!!!!!

I RECENTLY PURCHASED A 2011 CAMARO SS. THIS WAS A GIFT TO MY WIFE BECAUSE SHE HAD ALWAYS LOVED THE CAMARO. THE CAR WAS PURCHASED AT A CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP. MY WIFE DROVE THE CAR HOME ABOUT 70 MILES WITH NO TROUBLE AT ALL. A FEW DAYS LATER THE TEMPERATURE IN NORTH CAROLINA DROPPED TO AROUND 40 DEG AND STARTED TO RAIN. MY WIFE TOOK MY DAUGHTER TO THE STORE AND SHE WAS UNABLE TO GET ABOVE 30 MPH BECAUSE THE CAR WAS UNCONTROLLABLE DUE TO THE REAR END CONSTANTLY FISH TAILING. I WAS CALLED BY HER CRYING BECAUSE SHE WAS SO SCARED. I CONTACTED A FRIEND TO GO AND GET THE CAR AND HE CALLED ME AS HE WAS DRIVING TELLING ME WHAT THE CAR WAS DOING. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH ON LINE I FOUND OUT THAT THE PIRELLI PZERO TIRES THAT COME STANDARD ON THE SS AND RS CAMARO ARE SUMMER ONLY? TIRES. THESE TIRES ARE ONLY TO BE DRIVEN IN TEMPERATURES ABOVE 45 DEG AND IN DRY CONDITIONS! I AM CURRENTLY IN THE MIDDLE EAST AND RELIED TOTALLY ON THE DEALERSHIP TO INFORM MY WIFE OF ANY ISSUES OR WARNINGS THAT SHOULD HAVE COME WITH THE CAR. ALSO CHEVROLET IS TOTALLY AT FAULT BY SELLING, AS STANDARD EQUIPMENT, A TIRE THAT IS DANGEROUS TO THE POINT OF BEING CRIMINAL WHEN DRIVEN IN WEATHER CONDITIONS THAT COVER MOST OF THE UNITED STATES. I HAD TO PURCHASES, AT THE COST OF OVER $1000.00, A SET OF TIRES THAT ARE ?ALL SEASON? SO MY WIFE CAN DRIVE SAFELY. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO BE PAYING OVER $40,000.00 FOR A CAR THAT I NEED TO SPEND ANOTHER GRAND ON JUST TO MAKE IT SAFE TO DRIVE. THIS IS TOTALLY AND COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE. I WILL NOTIFY EVERYONE AND ANYONE THAT I CAN ABOUT THE HAZARDS OF THIS SITUATION. *TR
