NHTSA Complaint #10641879 — 2012 CHEVROLET CAMARO

AS MY 2012 CAMARO HAS BEEN ISSUED A VIN RECALL, I WANT TO LET CHEVROLET, THE PUBLIC AT LARGE AND MY LOCAL CHEVY DEALERSHIP IN COLORADO THAT I AM UTTERLY DISGUSTED WITH THE OFFERED TREATMENT OF THIS RECALL STATED AS "REMEDY: DEALERS ARE TO PROVIDE TWO REPLACEMENT KEY RINGS. VEHICLES WITH SLOTTED KEYS WILL ALSO RECEIVE KEY INSERTS." MY REASONS FOR NOT BEING SATISFIED WITH THIS DESCRIPTION IS BECAUSE HAVING MY KEYS CUT OFF THE REMOTE CONTROL AND GIVEN SECONDARY KEYS AS ANOTHER THING TO KEEP TRACK OF IS NOT WHAT WAS PAID FOR WHEN PURCHASING THE VEHICLE. WHY SHOULD I SETTLE FOR A FIX (THAT IS SUBSTANDARD TO WHAT ORIGINALLY CAME WITH THE VEHICLE)? WHY SHOULD I SETTLE FOR WHATEVER GM DECIDES TO GIVE ME AS REPLACEMENT IN ORDER FOR THEM TO COMPLY WITH THAT WHICH THEY SHOULD HAVE COMPLIED WITH TO BEGIN WITH? IN MY EYES, CHEVROLET IS SEEKING A QUICK FIX IN ORDER FOR THEM TO SAVE DOLLARS AND WHAT DO I GET IN RETURN FOR THE THOUSANDS I PAID THEM? I GET A SUBSTANDARD REPLACEMENT OF A NECESSARY ITEM. A COSMETIC DEBACLE SO THAT CHEVY CAN COMPLY WITH THE 465,000 VEHICLES THEY CONTINUED TO ALLOW ON THE ROAD "AS IS" UNTIL CAUGHT BY THE LAW. NOW I ASK, WHAT WILL THIS DO TO THE VALUE OF THE VEHICLE DOWN THE ROAD? CHEVROLET OWES ME EXACTLY WHAT I PAID FOR: BRAND NEW IGNITION WITH BRAND NEW REMOTE CONTROL KEYS JUST AS THEY ARE WHEN PURCHASED WITH THE VEHICLE. A REMEDY SHOULD BE AN IMPROVEMENT NOT INSTEAD, 3 STEPS BACKWARD. I AM THOROUGHLY DISGUSTED ABOUT THIS RECALL REMEDY AND WITH CHEVROLET'S POOR DECISION MAKING VALUES. *TR
