2015 Chevrolet Camaro: sudden loss of power

Filed Apr 4, 2022 · Electrical · TX

In regards to my electrical system - Issue #1 - once I place the car in park the key won't turn all the way back to come out of the ignition switch. Most often I have to take the care out of park and back or jam the car into park for it to turn all the way to get the key out. Issue #2 - while sitting at a light my car tend to shake as if it's about to cut off. On a couple of times the Service Stabili Trak light, engine light, traction control and two other tire lights all come on and I seem to lose power when I get on the gas. By the time I get it to the shop they don't find the code that sets off these lights.

I was exiting the freeway and came to a stop sign. The freeway exit has about a 30 degree slope of incline. I accelerated and then the vehicle lost power, I pulled over and parked to inspect the vehicle. Everything looked fine. I then turned the car on, put the vehicle in drive and drove about 10mph. I then slightly turned the key in the off position and the vehicle shut off. I can replicate this issue and turnng the key while in drive does not require much force.

Car stalls, stumbles, and dies when trying to accelerate after decelerating. It happens at low and high speeds. Have had the car die at highway speeds when trying to accelerate after braking to slow down. Problem is intermittent at this point but has gotten worse. Have to shift to neutral and restart while moving. Car will restart but problem continues. Sometimes I can catch it before it completely dies by pumping the gas pedal 2-3 times. But if not quick enough, will die when I hit gas pedal. This is a real safety issue when at highway speeds as loss of engine power could cause problems with braking and steering if car cannot restart.

On february 3rd, 2017, I was driving at 8pm on a street at 30 MPH. At that time my camaro lost all power, including engine, head-lights, and steering. This is the second time this has happened since I've owned the car (june 2015). The first time I suspected that my knee had played a role by accidentally hitting the ignition area. Yesterday, (feb 3rd) I know for a fact that this time my knee played a role. I understand that gm recalled 500k chevy camaro's that were 2010-2014 models for an ignition-switch defect. The reason that I am writing this compliant is that the exact same thing occurred and this is a 2015 model.

Ive had issues with the motor dealer has had to change pistons and vales . Which isn't very unsafe until your driving on the highway then you lose all power ..then you have to dodge traffic..or else.. Ive had issues with the tire sensor that keeps going out, dealer changed it once and within a month it started acting weird again. Keeps telling me to add air to the tires when I took it in to the dealer they said it was fine . Until I get a blow out and wreck. Ive had issues with some lights that flicker while im driving . The dealer says "that there is nothing wrong with the lights" . Gm is buying back this lemon they sold me , however they would like me to keep driving this car with two completely bald tires around while they decide exactly how much they want me to pay them for dealing with this obvious lemon that they sold me. That's the thanks I get for choosing to buy an american made vehicle. I will not even drive this one year old car because it is so unsafe, please look into or at least make some of this information available so that other honest hard working people don't get caught in this horrible situation..

We received a 2015 chevy camaro convertible as a rental car. This car was fresh off the delivery truck with only 6 miles on the odometer. Between the airport and our final destination that evening, we racked up approximately 55 miles. In that time, the car (engine) stalled/lost power/cut out 3 times as of writing this complaint. There was no loss of brakes or steering. The car was provided with a traditional key and not the gm switchblade, and the driver was not sitting close enough to bump the key into the off position. This is obviously not normal, and I am not the only one that has experienced this problem. Whoever is at fault, gm or the rental company for improper inspection before putting the car in the rental fleet, needs to resolve this issue as it is dangerous and potentially deadly.
