NHTSA Complaint #10808892 — 2013 CHEVROLET CAMARO

ON TWO OCCASIONS LESS THAN A WEEK APART THE VEHICLE ENGINE, WHILE IN MOTION AT HIGHWAY SPEED (70 MPH) AFTER APPROXIMATELY TEN HOURS OF OPERATION, STOPPED RUNNING. THE VEHICLE SERVICE ENGINE SOON LIGHT CAME ON AND THE CARS AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION DOWNSHIFTED. THE CAR WAS GUIDED TO THE SHOULDER OF THE HIGHWAY ON BOTH OCCASIONS. A RESTART WAS ATTEMPTED WHILE ON THE SHOULDER. THE ENGINE WOULD TURN OVER BUT WOULD NOT RUN. ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE WAS REQUESTED AND A TOW WAS PERFORMED TO THE NEAREST DEALER. THE DEALER IN THE FIRST INSTANCE STATED THAT THE ERROR CODE WAS FOR THE FUEL PUMP. THE PUMP WAS ORDERED BUT BEFORE ARRIVING, THE DEALER DISCOVERED FRAYED WIRE AND MADE UNSPECIFIED REPAIRS. IN THE SECOND INSTANCE, THE CODE WAS GONE WHEN THE DEALER SCANNED THE SYSTEM. NO REPAIRS WERE MADE.
