NHTSA Complaint #10722774 — 2010 CHEVROLET CAMARO

THE VEHICLE DISPLAYED A TROUBLE CODE ON THE DASH. I TOOK IT IN TO GET A READING FOR THE CODE AND IT APPEARS TO BE A P0008 ERROR CODE. AFTER SEARCHING, IT SEEMS THIS CODE IS RELATING TO THE TIMING CHAINS WITHIN THE ENGINE BECOMING STRETCHED. IT ALSO SEEMS THAT A LOT OF OWNERS ARE SEEING THIS ERROR WITH THEIR OWN VEHICLES AND DEALER IS CHARGING ANYWHERE FROM 2 TO 3K TO GET THE ISSUE RESOLVED. TO QUOTE ANOTHER COMPLAINT THAT I SAW REGARDING THE SAME ISSUE: " WHEN IS GM GOING TO ADDRESS THE PROBLEM OF THE TIMING CHAINS ON THE CAMARO AS IT HAS THE OTHER MODELS THAT HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. IT IS RIDICULOUS FOR GM TO EXPECT THE BUYER TO COME OUT OF POCKET FOR A PROBLEM THAT IS A KNOWN MANUFACTURER PROBLEM AND NOT CAUSED DUE TO ANYTHING DONE BY THE BUYER. "
