Hard/Erratic shifting and feels like you’re driving over rumble strips. The day I purchased the car.

I’ve been experiencing shuttering and hard shifting since day one of purchasing my car

The steering system stopped working suddenly. Sounds exactly like the recall but my VIN is not included in the recall. I had to replace the steering system at the local deal shop and I paid 100% of the cost. It only has 12,000 miles.

The vehicle has repeatedly lost electrical power while driving. During one incident at approximately 50 mph, the vehicle’s electronics shut off and power steering assist stuttered/lost assist for several seconds, causing reduced vehicle control. During another incident while turning/in a turning lane, the engine and electronics shut off and the vehicle had to be restarted. Afterward, the vehicle struggled to restart and displayed a warning to drive cautiously due to power steering loss. The vehicle also has recurring hot-start/no-start symptoms and electrical loss after shutting the engine off. Based on my research, GM Bulletin 19-NA-052 appears to describe a related condition on 2016–2019 Chevrolet Camaro 6.2L vehicles where circuit 1 may short to ground at the starter heat shield, causing loss of electrical power or failure to start, with repair involving the starter solenoid cable. This appears to be a safety-related manufacturing/design defect because the vehicle can lose electrical power and steering assist while in motion. The vehicle/component is available for inspection upon request.

Vehicle does a vibration at high way speeds of 40 to 80 mph. Found several threads online stating the same issue. Found a technical service bulletin regarding this issue (18-NA-355). My vehicle needs a new transmission stated by the service shop.

The back glass on my convertible is separating from the fabric. This isn't something I did or anyone else has done. This is a huge problem with thousands of camaro owners that have a convertible. Something needs to be done because its obvious that the design that was used on mine and many many others alike is a flawed and something that we should not have to deal with. Right now my only options are to buy a new top and spend over $3,000 to have it installed or buy some glue and rig it up myself but I refuse to do that. Please, this is my first Camaro and I love it and just want it fixed. I don't see any Mustangs or other convertibles having this issue. Attached with my photos is a screenshot from a Facebook post with over 300 comments of people having the same issue and also a service bulletin that was put out a while back. There needs to be a recall on this issue or lawsuits are going to start being filed. Thats what most people are threatening to do now.

The power steering locks up and message appears saying power steering enabled please drive carefully. When this happens the steering wheel becomes very hard to turn, sometimes making it impossible to turn right or left if it is a sharp turn. I then have to shut car off and start it again and move steering wheel in order for it to steer properly again. Sometimes I have to repeat this process over and over again while driving from point A to B. Then at other times I have no issue. As of today(4/27/2026) this has been happening on a daily basis for the past 2 weeks. Before then, it was occasionally beginning in November 2025. A friend told me there was a recall but there are none listed for this car on the dealership site. When I googled recalls, it stated there were 3 critical recalls 1 being this power steering issue.

The contact owns a 2017 Chevrolet Camaro. The contact stated that while driving 75 MPH, the brake pedal became firm while depressed. There was no warning light illuminated. The contact used excessive force while depressing the brake pedal to stop the vehicle. Upon investigation, the contact associated the brake failure with NHTSA Campaign Number: 18V576000 (Service Brakes, Hydraulic); however, the VIN was not under recall. The vehicle was not yet diagnosed or repaired. Neither the dealer nor the manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 85,000.

Intermittent loss of power steering with no warning other than message on dash saying loss of power steering then shut the car off and restart it and powering steering back for a little while and then it repeats

Thermostat is not lasting to recommend mileage. Gm states that this part start going bad at 100,000 miles. My vehicle had 40,000 miles when my thermostat went out. I looked online and this been an ongoing problem. For Chevy Camaro owners.

Chevrolet has a well documented issue with the automatic transmission on my car. This is the same model transmission in other cars as well. First issue: the stock transmission fluid was incorrect. This required repairs. The underlying issue is the torque converters and solenoid. Most recently, one solenoid got stuck and forced my car into Limp mode while driving. This caused the vehicle to force 4th gear and incapacitated my ability to control my speed correctly. I was forced to pull off to the side until the computer reset itself again. A less experienced driver could potentially get into a car accident without the ability to properly regulate speed

I would like to report a safety concern with my car having a strong shuddering or vibration, including the steering wheel which I’m unable to move. When this happens RPM remain below 3000 rpm as if the the gears were having trouble changing, the shaking remains while driving in the city at around 25-35 mph and highway speeds at around 65-76 mph. My car was under warranty when this started happening, the dealership flushed and replaced the transmission fluid and it took care of the problem for about 2000 miles (GM has several bulletins in regards to the “shake” on different model vehicles since 2014). When the shuddering returned, I returned to the freedom Chevrolet where I bought the vehicle (actual mileage 53768) and explained the shuddering returning. I was advised to leave the car which now has been at the dealership for months and they refuse to fix the problem stating it is out of warranty. I provided all the bulletins I found on related issue which GM has stated they fix the problem by swapping the transmission on new cars but nothing has been done on the cars that have the existing problem because “there is no recall” as the service advisor stated. This problem could’ve been resolved when I took the car the first time but I wasn’t aware of the severity of the problem or that I would have so much trouble with the dealership now. All I asked is to honor the warranty as the issue was brought up when the vehicle was still under warranty and has less than 60,000 miles.

Airbag service light came on, which required us to bring to the dealership. Quote to access and replace airbag module came to roughly $1350.

The contact owns a 2017 Chevrolet Camaro. The contact stated that the steering wheel was shaking abnormally with several unknown warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer on three occasions, where an unknown diagnosis was provided. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure reoccurred. While driving at undisclosed speeds, the vehicle stalled. The vehicle was jump-started, but the failure persisted. Upon further investigation, the contact linked the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V175000 (Steering). The contact was concerned about driving the vehicle. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was approximately 30,000.

Got trapped inside the car in 100 degree weather plus humidity. The car started the whole and operated perfectly fine while a message prompted on the dash. After doing a push to start that morning before work. The car runs for 10mins until it shuts off. That morning closed myself in to get ready to head to work. Remote not detected prompted. It said it three times that day. The last time it said it I was heading home after getting food. After a push to start that’s when it trapped me inside. Called 911 in Rocky Mount Nc. All they were worried about is a OnStar button. If I had to wait on them probably would’ve been dead. Cause they have to ask a multitude of questions. Rescuers never came. While OnStar was on speaker I thought to check to see if I had the app available to unlock the doors. Usually I don’t pay the bill for it thought the remote way was better. Due to the fact that the app takes a while to upload and could update at anytime as well as signal issues in certain places. Luckily it was setup on autopay. Although it did take a little while to load I was kind of at ease knowing OnStar was still on the speaker. Spoke with a Gm specialist about doing a recall. Instead expressed that, that’s if my vehicle is even eligible for an upgrade. Had suggested the installation of physical unlock levers instead they ignored the suggestion. This is a deadly safety hazard not only for myself but for others as well. Especially if they are not alert about it. When I found that the ke

The contact owns a 2017 Chevrolet Camaro. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the power steering became inoperable. The contact pulled over to the right side of the road, turned off, restarted the vehicle, and the power steering functionality returned. A dealer was contacted. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed, and determined that the power steering needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 19V086000 (STEERING); however, the VIN was not included in the recall. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 125,000.

While driving, the vehicle suddenly lost all electric power steering assist, making the steering extremely heavy and difficult to control. This occurred without warning and significantly increased the risk of a crash, especially at low speeds and during turns. The issue occurs intermittently and temporarily resolves after restarting the engine, which suggests an intermittent failure. The defect matches the description in GM’s active recall (GM Recall N252497020 / NHTSA Campaign 25V175000) for similar 2017 Chevrolet Camaro models, involving a faulty printed circuit board in the steering gear assembly. This failure has happened multiple times and creates an immediate safety hazard. I have not yet had the issue confirmed by a dealer because GM and the dealership are requiring me to pay a diagnostic fee, even though this is a known safety defect on similar vehicles. The steering system has not been inspected by the manufacturer at this time. A warning message stating “Service Power Steering” sometimes appears after the failure, but not every time. No other warning signs were present before the loss of assist. This problem has occurred during normal driving conditions on public roads.

Cars power steering periodically goes out during ever drive you turn the car off and back on and it works for a little while and then does it again

The vehicle randomly started giving me a service power steering system message. Just got into my vehicle and now the power steering system will not work.

Steering assist failure and is not included in the 2018 recall of other General Motors vehicles. The failure is as described in the cars under the recall. GM has no desire to cover this component failure. This is a serious safety issue as it still can be steered but with great effort and could result in a serious wreck. The car has 12,000 miles and garage kept. There are no check engine lights. The battery is good with a full charge. The engine temp is good. The car is currently at the GM dealership and I am being told that it will be my responsibility to pay for it.
