NHTSA Complaint #11080773 — 2013 CHEVROLET CAMARO

6 MONTHS AGO MY INFOTAINMENT SCREEN STARTED FLASHING AND THE CD WOULD OCCASIONALLY POP OUT OF THE PLAYER ON ITS OWN. THE MUSIC WOULD TURN ITSELF OFF THEN COME BACK ON, STARTLING ME AS IT WOULD BE ACCOMPANIED BY A LOUD STATIC OR POPPING SOUND. IT STARTED OFF INTERMITTENTLY, THEN THE SCREEN WENT COMPLETELY BLACK AND THE MUSIC STOPPED WORKING COMPLETELY EXCEPT FOR THE CONSTANT BUZZING/STATIC SOUND ACCOMPANIED BY CLICKING AS THOUGH SOMETHING IS TRYING TO TURN ON. THE SCREEN AND THE MUSIC OCCASIONALLY MAKE A SURPRISING APPEARANCE, USUALLY AFTER I'VE COME TO A STOP, ROLLED MY WINDOW DOWN OR USED THE TURN SIGNAL. WHICH BRINGS ME TO THE NEXT THING, THE AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM. TO THIS DAY IT COMES ON AND OFF AT ITS LEISURE, INCLUDING THE FRONT AND REAR WINDOW DEFROST. MY BLINKERS NO LONGER MAKE THE SOUND TO ALERT ME THAT THEY ARE ON. ON A FEW OCCASIONS MY DRIVERS SIDE WINDOW HAS FAILED TO OPERATE. I ASSUME ONE DAY THAT WILL BE ALSO BE INOPERATIVE BASED ON PREVIOUS TRENDS. I CANCELLED MY SUBSCRIPTION TO ONSTAR SINCE I HAVE NO ACCESS TO THE FEATURES ANY LONGER. THIS MEANS I NO LONGER HAVE NAVIGATION, ACCESS TO EMERGENCY SERVICES, HANDS FREE CALLING OR EVEN ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE. I NO LONGER HAVE THE ABILITY TO REMOTE ACCESS MY VEHICLE WHICH WAS ONE OF THE MAIN SELLING POINTS. NOW PLEASE IMAGINE TAKING AN UNCOMFORTABLY SILENT RIDE WITH ME AND THEN ALL OF THE SUDDEN A CD THAT WASN'T PLAYING POPS OUT AND THE AIR CONDITIONER KEEPS GOING ON AND OFF, ALL WHILE THE CAR SOUNDS LIKE ITS ABOUT TO EXPLODE. I'VE RESEARCHED ONLINE AND FOUND COUNTLESS SITES WITH NUMEROUS OWNERS STATING THAT THEY ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEMS. ADD ANOTHER 5000 OR SO CHARACTERS TO THIS COMPLAINT BOX AND I WILL GLADLY COPY AND PASTE THOSE OWNERS' STORIES FOR YOU TO CONSIDER AS WELL. CHEVROLET/GM SAY THAT THIS IS MY ISSUE ALONE. I BELIEVE THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN A RECALL YEARS BEFORE I PURCHASED MY VEHICLE
