Engine stalls while driving by model year
What owners say
The contact owns a 2018 Chevrolet Camaro. The contact stated that a manufacturer defect had caused moisture to seep into the trunk compartment. As a result, water had leaking into the battery compartment which had caused the vehicle to shut off while driving. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where the defect was confirmed, and the contact was provided an estimate for the repair. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was unknown.
Engine cuts out when starting out in 1st gear. Manual transmission. Engine stalled easily. Was rear ended because engine cut out when starting from light and truck behind me drove into me.
The vehicle has stalled numerous times attempting to start from a stop. Vehicle has also stalled going up driveways. Only way to avoid stalling is to not apply throttle or ride the clutch which is going to prematurely wear said clutch.
On the zl1 trim package, manual transmission cars when taking off from a stop the the cars torque management system is incorrectly configured and senses wheel slip (evident on the elsd slip guage) and cuts engine power and causes the car to bog down and potentially stall. This is especially dangerous when pulling out into traffic and is a matter of time before it causes an accident. This is a known issue and discussed at length on numerous forums. Here is a good example. Http://www.camaro6.com/forums/showthread.php?t=498180
