NHTSA Complaint #10618500 — 2014 CHEVROLET CAMARO

WHILE SITTING AT A STOP LIGHT FOR A BUSY INTERSECTION, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND MESSAGE APPEARED WITH THE STATEMENTS ENGINE POWER REDUCED AND SERVICE STABILITRAK. I WAS ABLE TO PULL OFF INTO A PARKING LOT AND SHUT THE CAR DOWN FOR A RESTART. UPON RESTART, THE MESSAGES CONTINUED. I RESEARCHED MY OWNER'S MANUAL IN WHICH IT SAID GIVEN THESE MESSAGES, THE CAR WAS SAFE TO DRIVE BUT NEEDED TO BE CHECKED OUT. I ATTEMPTED TO PROCEED TO MY DESTINATION, HOWEVER THE TRANSMISSION WOULD NOT SHIFT INTO SECOND GEAR, AND THE VEHICLE WOULD TOP OUT AT APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH. WHILE I WAS IN A 55 MPH ZONE, I DECIDED TO AGAIN PULL OFF THE ROAD AND CONTACT ONSTAR. MY VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER. THE FOLLOWING AFTERNOON, THE DEALERSHIP CONTACTED ME SAYING THE PROBLEM WAS A BAD HIGH-PRESSURE FUEL PUMP. THE DEALER HAD A SPARE FUEL PUMP IN-STOCK, HOWEVER THE FUEL LINE IS NON-SERVICEABLE, AND I WAS TOLD THEY WERE ON A BACK-ORDER OF 3-5 DAYS. SEVEN DAYS LATER THE DEALER CALLED TO LET ME KNOW THAT GM WAS RE-ENGINEERING THAT FUEL LINE AND IT COULD BE UPWARDS OF A MONTH BEFORE THE CAR WOULD BE REPAIRED. AFTER A TOTAL OF 17 DAYS, THE CAR WAS REPAIRED AND EVERYTHING SEEMS TO BE BACK IN ORDER. *TR
