THE ENGINE HAS BEEN TAKEN APART INTO MANY PIECES AND MUCH OF IT IS SITTING ON THE DEALERSHIP SHOP FLOOR. THE MECHANIC SAID THE ENGINE FAILURE WAS DUE TO A DEFECTIVE VALVE CASING AND A DEFECTIVE SPRING..DAMAGING THE CAMSHAFT. ALL VALVES AND SPRINGS AND CAMSHAFT WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. CHEVY HAS DECLINED MY REQUEST FOR A NEW ENGINE..THEY SAID THAT DECISION IS UP TO THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE MANAGER. I SPOKE TO HIM...HE SAID THAT THE COST TO REPLACE THE ENGINE MUST BE WITHIN A FEW HUNDRED DOLLARS VS REBUILDING THE ENGINE FOR HIM TO AUTHORIZE THAT THE ENGINE BE REPLACED..

• 08/26/2026· ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,AIR BAGS,ENGINE

  I am filing an official safety complaint regarding a severe unaddressed factory design defect on my 2016 Chevrolet Camaro. The vehicle suffers from catastrophic water intrusion into the primary electrical system hub in the trunk during normal, everyday rain conditions. Due to a manufacturing or design failure in the rear trunk decklid seals and wiring harnesses, ordinary rainfall flows directly into the trunk floorboard. This standing water submerges the vehicle's primary battery, rear fuse block, and factory audio amplifier. This has disabled my infotainment/central command screen, causing a total electrical no-start condition. Most critically, this ongoing flooding creates a severe safety and crash hazard that compromises the vehicle's steering infrastructure. The previous Geneal Motor's safety recall regarding the electronic power steering (EPS) gear assembly losing connectivity when exposed to water was addressed, the unresolved trunk defect actively defeats that safety remedy. By allowing routine rainwater to freely pool over the main fuse block and electrical distribution network, the vehicle remains highly vulnerable to sudden, unpredictable power steering loss or total electronic shutdown while in motion. A vehicle that cannot withstand ordinary rain without experiencing total electrical failure and threatening critical steering components poses an immediate safety risk for me and my young children. I request that the NHTSA investigate this systemic trunk-flooding defect on the 2016 Camaro chassis.

  Before purchasing a 2016 camaro last year I took it to a Chevrolet dealership for a safety inspection with no safety concerns found and after purchasing it around 57,000 miles went to another Chevrolet dealership to diagnose any electrical concerns occurring with the car that I noticed. There was nothing found but I still noticed humming sound and let them know and they found no concerns whatsoever. The battery was replaced twice as over the course of the year the electricals decreased in power. I then notified my insurance there was an issue with the car drawing power and it would not start. Upon checking the trunk noticed water had gotten into and possibly damaged the trunk/rear fuse block. I went through my insurance to fix any body damage but no electricals were fixed based on the insurance representative declining to accept liability for the damage and upon return of my vehicle, the repair facility started the car against my wishes and the rear fuse block in the trunk sparked and caused a fire to start in the trunk that continued for about a minute or two. Upon taking it to Chevrolet this year again after this, I was charged $800 for them to not diagnose anything but to say the x-connectors were burned up in the incident as well (I said this previously as this started the fire as it carries the currents from the fuse block) and to say they cannot find the source of the water leak/entry or replace the fuse block as the x-connectors and harness for the car, the first parts needed to be repaired to establish power to the car, have been discontinued. For more details on the cause, effects, and repair steps necessary but not been able to completed by GM/Chevrolet please refer to this service bulletin that I noticed was raised after I purchased this car upon researching the issue MULTIPLE chevrolet dealerships, ignored, didn't notice, and now are saying cannot repair and should be followed up on: 18-NA-375. Car is at ~70,000 miles currently.

  On Friday August 12th 2022 at 9:30pm check engine light came on after car was sitting turned off for a few hours while my fiance was buffing/polishing/waxing the car. Checked the chevy app, it didn't list any problems. Took it to auto zone. They ran diagnostics. Came back codes P0711 and P0700. Made appointment at AAMCO Monday August 15th. Car was not smoothly down shifting and when put in drive or reverse would jump slightly. AAMCO basically said the transmission was bad. Which I can't understand how that could happen, it's a 2016 only has a little over 70,000 miles on it and is extremely well taken care of. I'm being told we have 2 options either the whole transmission needs to be taken out and rebuilt to find the problem, an estimated $3000-$6000. Or 2 the TCM can be replaced/reprogrammed for over $2500 which is not a guaranteed fix. They also told us a few other chevys with low miles also needed a transmission rebuild! So what is going on Chevrolet!? And we're still making payments on this car and it's already having expensive problems!
