I purchased my 2022 Chevrolet Camaro SS from Schoner Chevrolet in Hartville, OH in July of 2022, which is one hour from my home. I had my first service Tire Pressure Monitor error service on 8/09/2022 and brought it to Sweeney Chevrolet, which is local for me. I had 4 subsequent visits for the same error before reaching out to Chevrolet Customer service.

I called Chevrolet Customer service and spoke to a rep. who instructed me to call her back on Monday 7/24/2022, when I am at the dealer so she can speak to the service manager. I did as instructed two time on 7/24/2023 and never received a call back. The customer service associate has since been responsive, but I have been denied a buy back and a GM loyalty. I was told by the service manager from Cochran Chevrolet, who purchased Sweeney Chevrolet, that it was my after market amplifier that was causing the issue. I had the $4000 worth of amplifiers and speakers removed at a fee of $220 only to have the same error come up 4 days later. It is now 9/15/2023 and I have had my car in service since Wed. 9/6/2023 and I'm told they are working with engineers.

I have never had a worse experience with a new car. I would also never buy a car from a dealer out of town, and get it service by a local dealer, as there seems to be zero empathy or urgency to resolve the situation. I had asked previously to speak to a supervisor, when I was not called by by my original customer service rep. and was never called back by a supervisor. I was told it would be 48 hours, but it never happened.

When I reach out to Chevrolet through email CustomerCare, they simply say my rep is in contact with the dealer. I have not been offered a loaner. The dealer I purchased the vehicle said there is nothing they can do. I would never recommend a Chevrolet product. I have owned Buicks, Hondas, Acuras, and Fords and this experience with Chevrolet has been a nightmare. Acura will give a loaner if they are going to have the car for a few hours let alone weeks at a time.

Ordered a 2023 Camaro SS convertible end of February 2023 only to be told on June 23rd that my order did not make the cut and I would need to order a 2024 with a possible increase in price. Plus the value of my trade in is going down too. Their Sales department gives you no information so you can make a decision. Why allow the order to be placed if you are going to cancel the order months later? GM needs to seriously figure this issue out.

    I bought my dream car 8/2019, a 2019 red Chevrolet Camaro convertible. Since I was a little girl this has been my car. I love it, BUT not long after I got it, hood open shows up on dash, but it’s closed. Once winter came and temps dropped the back glass came off the blacktop. Thread on seats is dry rotted, driver door hinge cracked, windshield cracked completely across one cold morning while defrost on high.

    Then Covid hit, I took car into dealer, but was told I had to leave car for 3 weeks,w/ no rental. Couldn’t do it, gotta work. Nov.2022 took car back to dealer, cause temp gauge stayed on cold, A/C wouldn’t work, & fan stayed on sometimes. Again they wanted to keep it 3-4 weeks w/ no rental. Couldn’t leave it. Finally bought a used truck in 2/2023 took car in and left it. $278 diagnostic test to determine if factory defects. (Stupid on my part, of course they would say no) thermostat was temp/fan issue since I now have 70k miles it cost $827 to fix thermostat.

    I have a 2019 Camaro Rs bought in November 2019. It set in my garage for months because I gave it to my daughter for Christmas. She started driving the car in June 2020. So with that being said it has very low miles and is under warranty. The car hasn’t been wrecked or hit anything. So I feel like the car was not Aligned from the factory, I just happened to look at the tires one day when we were outside washing it and the tires looked good on the outside but if you looked at the inside the Wire was showing. I couldn’t believe it. I bought my daughter these brand new car and thought she would be safe and have a reliable ride. But when I seen this I really couldn’t believe what I was seeing. My daughter could have been in a bad accident or even killed from this.

    I took the car straight to the dealership after a few days they got the car in their shop but then they called me to tell me that it was nothing wrong with the car and I was responsible for the tires and alignment. I then called GM they said they had to go with the service department. My question is really GM how can this be my fault the car would have to be in a wreck to be out of alignment this bad. I hope if any young person buys this car or a parent buys it for their kid please keep a eye on the tires. My daughter was very lucky and I told GM this also the next kid might not be that lucky. Very dissatisfied with GM on this and this car had a warranty ????☹️

    I love my 2015 Chevy Camaro. Bout it in 2015 with 2 miles on it. I am now experiencing issue with heat working on the driver side and blowing air on passenger side. The dealer is stating $2200-2400 to repair a temperature door that you have to take off the dashboard and the windshield to get to. Why would Chevrolet put a part that controls your heating and cooling that is not protected from outside foreign objects in a area when it cost thousands to repair. And oddly enough its is happening to the majority of the 2010-2017 models.

    I purchased a 2011 Chevrolet Camaro on April 30, 2016 from Surburban Chevrolet. At the time of purchase it had 22,395 miles on it. On January 23, 2020 the motor blew with 49,033 miles on it. I changed the oil every 3,000 miles with Mobil 1 synthetic. This had been A GREAT car until now. I have contacted the dealership and was told the warranty is up as it was 5 years or 100,000 miles. Which I knew this. I spoke with Nick ** and he helped me as much as he could but his hands were tied from a dealership standpoint. Which I appreciated the help. So to GM I go. I called 800-222-1020 and FINALLY got to speak to someone. Explained what happen and all he could say to me is I should of purchased the extended warranty. He said, "Your vehicle had a 5 year 100,000 mile warranty." I said, "I'm sorry I didn't drive it more to blow up before the warranty was up." He then referred me to the dealership I purchased my car from.

    I told him I have spoke with Nick **. I also told him I have been doing my research online and GM forums all full of my same situation. V6 engines going out at 40,000 from the bearings. He told me he knew nothing of this. I explain forums people are getting engines replaced and so far with the new engines and upgraded bearings no reported problems.

    GM is aware of this problem as they are upgrading the bearings in the engines they are replacing. He once again said I should of purchased the extended warranty. I said GM needs to stand behind their motors. I put 27,000 miles on it in 4 years. I said, "So are you telling me there is nothing you can do for me?" He said have the car towed to the dealership I purchased it from and have them do a diagnosis. I told him I already inquired about that with Nick and it would be roughly $1300.00. I said GM should be doing that. He said that there is nothing GM will do for me and he hoped I had a good day. I am hoping someone can help me with this. In no way, shape or form should my engine of failed. GM is aware and they need to be held accountable.

    My 2010 Camaro ss 2ss rs package is a great car. With a powerful ls3 engine. It has fulfilled my expectations as a fun car I drive daily. Very reliable and fast enough to compete with cars out of its price range. I love this car and am looking forward to many more years of muscle car fun. Only negative things would be mpgs and even then for a 6.2L V8 I don't think it's to bad. Also car has poor visibility but it is a sports car and I like the retro shape. I think it's the best looking generation since the original generation 1.

    The Camaro 2SS is attractive in many respects. It presents a sporty, muscular design that's sure to turn heads while providing lots of driver enjoyment. The 2SS provides more than ample power with its 10 speed auto transmission, provides great handling and offers several driving mode options. It sure doesn't require much effort to get up to driving speed. The interior layout is quite nice, offering a premium type feel is and nicely accented. Definitely love the option of having a sunroof, dual mode exhaust, navigation and magnetic ride control. Passenger wise however, don't expect much from using the rear seats due to the obvious lack of leg room. Seating is quite comfortable, even without the optional Recaro seats. Fuel mileage seems a bit better than I expected especially on the highway. Overall, the 2SS provides a 'cool' driving experience that feels very comfortable.

    The only downside (in my case), is that my new 2SS (which only has 411 miles on it), already has an issue where the trunk deck lid does not always open when prompted. I had two previous SS Camaro's which did not exhibit this behavior (but I am aware of various issues reported on other earlier models, in having since researched the internet).

    I would recommend that potential buyers test opening the trunk lid (using the key fob), to determine whether or not this issue reveals itself, as it did me (as it doesn't hurt to explore every aspect before purchase). In having notified the Chevy customer care center about this, it was disappointing to read a phrase they embedded into their reply, which stated that 'Any repairs or service may be at your cost....' Shaking my head in disbelief in reading this, my first word of choice was 'What????'... It would seem that GM's response is about as reliable as my vehicle's trunk deck lid opening properly consistently.

    I'm an automotive repair shop owner and have purchased GM products for 30 years. GM is guilty of knowingly installing stereo/control unit systems in the Camaro LS models that are often defective and are potential fire hazards. My 2015 Camaro has 45k on it and has been maintained well above and beyond GM recommendations. I pay for XM, yet because GM has known since 2011 of the potential issues with these systems, I am forced to write complaints and consult an attorney about legal action. Make no mistake, when a company knowingly installs defective equipment, partcularly after knowing the issues for 4 years, that company is engaging in fraud. GM must do the right thing and extend the warranties retroactively on all 2011 and up Camaro LS's. If they do nothing, they permanently lose my business. Currently, 2 Chevys sit in my driveway. GM can agree to repair these defective systems or lose customers.
