A few months ago I took my 2013 chevrolet camaro 2ls to premier chevrolet of buena park for an oil change. On the way home after driving the car for about 60 miles the check engine light came on for a few minutes then it went off. On may the 22nd on my way back home from work the check engine light came back on while sitting in traffic. Once traffic started moving I noticed that the car would not shift gears it was stuck on 2nd gear. Drove the car through the streets to the nearest dealership in la puente ca the whole way the car would not shift. I am waiting for a response from the dealer to see if the warranty is going to cover the issue.
2013 Chevrolet Camaro transmission complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 16 of 16, newest first, as owners wrote them.
I have a manual v8 model. Whenever stopped on an incline, the hill start assist (hsa) engages. The first time I gave it plenty of throttle and the brakes would not disengage and caused me to stall. The 2nd time, I had the RPM very high and again the brakes would not disengage. My car was jumping up and down under the strain. When it finally released the car, I was greeted with the smell of burning clutch. This cannot be normal. I don't think hitting 2000 RPM and dropping the clutch should be a normal method to overcome teh hsa system. I have auto hill braking on other vehicles that are nearly invisible to me and work flawlessly. I been driving manual cars for 20+ years and have no issues on hill starts. One of the biggest issues is there is no way to turn off the hsa feature. I think you need to force gm to recalibrate the system and/or allow the driver to turn the hsa feature off.
Starting day 1 after purchasing the vehicle in february 2013, the vehicles back up cam began to freeze when the vehicle is in reverse until I put the car back in park and turn the vehicle off and open the door to completely shut the vehicle down. A few months later on top of the radio and back up camera issues the vehicle has started to create a chain dragging sound when accelerating, it then begins to pulsate while my foot is on the acceleration peddle and the sound continues, the vehicles radio then freezes and resets itself starting in october of 2013. I have taken the car to certified chevrolet service departments within multiple dealerships on multiple occasions to get the vehicle fixed. The dealer has stated and been unable to correct the problems completely and has ran out of alternative solutions to the fix the problems after putting over 800 additional road miles on my vehicle in order to try to diagnose the issue.
Tl* the contact owns a 2013 chevrolet camaro. The contact stated that the vehicle would not respond while attempting to accelerate from a stop. The clutch had to be depressed in order for the vehicle to engage into first gear and accelerate. The contact stated that there was also an abnormal noise from the vehicle when depressing the clutch. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 700.
The aisin ay6 transmission in my brand new 2013 chevrolet camaro ls is defective to the point of being a safety issue and gm will not recognize this as an issue even though it is a widespread problem that a lot of people are having. The transmission, from the day I bought the car, has never shifted smoothly without grinding or causing missed shifts. This can be, and is a safety hazard. The bottom line is that it is a poorly designed transmission that gm is putting in these cars and enough issues have been raised that they should be fixing the problems or replacing the transmissions in these cars. I want this issue resolved and any help you can offer is greatly appreciated.
I was accelerating from a stop light when I got to roughly 2000 rpms ( roughly 17 MPH) pushed the clutch fully in and attempted to go into 2nd gear. However, the shifter physically would not allow this shifter to go into 2nd gear with up to, I would say 20lbs of force. As a result of trying to get the car to go into 2nd gear the driver behind me had to swerve out of his lane to avoid from re-ending me. I quickly had to move the gear shifter to 3rd gear to get my speed back. This has happened a total of over 3 times now! This is a brand new car and should not have these kinds of transmission issues. I have an apt. With the dealer 11/28/12.
