I have been experiencing stalling and vehicle shut off on my 2013 chevy camaro I have taken it to the dealer 3 times now and they are unable to find the problem. It seems to happen during extreme heat temperatures during the summer months particularly. I have noticed that nissan is having similar problems with their nissan versa's and nissan sentras as it was aired on channel 13 action news. I have reached out to gm twice about this problem with no help although they are aware that many people are having the same problem with their vehicles. I need to start a class action suit. Can you help me?

Bought a 2013 camaro, making a right turn on my car my keys were bumped by my knee and the car just stalled. Thankfully only I was involved and no one coming from the opposing was hurt as I ended up in a train track median with some damage only to my car. I drive with the fear that this could happen again and the simple fact that they removed the key from the flipkey/control does not solve the issue. I have experimented with different cars by purposedly bump my keys and none stalled with as little force as the one asserted onto the camaro. This is a terrible design and engineering flaw that needs a better solution than their fix.

This is my second complaint about the hill assist feature on this manual transmission vehicle. The feature is designed to automatically hold the brakes on an incline and is supposed to release on application of the throttle. It does not work as it should! It engages randomly even when not on an incline and does not release quickly enough to prevent engine stalling or excessive wear to the clutch by over revving the engine to prevent it from stalling! This cause a burning smell and excessive wear to the clutch! It is very dangerous in that I have to pull out onto a busy highway from an incline every day where I live and have to try to over compensate for the delay in getting this hill assist to release so I can pull out into traffic moving at 55 MPH! I have had it to the selling dealer (carl black chevrolet) multiple times and spoken with chevrolet customer service! They all acknowledge that there is an issue! It has been written about extensively in the camaro :forums online! The refuse to fix the issue! They tell me to buy aftermarket parts to solve the problem when there are general motors parts available to fix it! I finally gave in and ordered the gm part to have installed and fix myself! I am an ase master and l-1 certified auto repair technician with extensive gm training! They need to fix this before me or someone else is killed!

Car would not shift into 1st gear. Car is 6 speed manual v-6 model. Repeatedly tried shifting into 1st gear at stoplight. Turned car off and started again. Tried shifting into 3rd and reverse, still would not shift into 1st. This caused a safety concern as cars started coming up to rear of car since light turned green while trying to shift the car into 1st. Had to start take-off in 2nd gear, stalling car. This has occurred many more times. After every incident and reporting of problem to dealer, dealer stated that was normal operation for the car. They inspected car 4 times and they always state "normal operation". Car also intermittently grinds gears between 1st and second gear. Car is now at dealer awaiting inspection by factory representative. Car is a danger to myself, my family and the driving and passenger public. Gm is well aware of this design flaw and there are hundreds of online posts describing the same exact issue that my car has. Please help!
