NHTSA Complaint #11096595 — 2016 CHEVROLET CAMARO

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 CHEVROLET CAMARO. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE BRAKES FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO H & L CHEVROLET IN DARIEN, CONNECTICUT, BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. LOEHMANN BLASIUS CHEVROLET CADILLAC IN WATERBURY, CONNECTICUT ALSO COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE FAILURE OF THE BRAKES NOT "GRABBING" AS INDICATED IN THE WORK ORDER; HOWEVER, THEY UPDATED THE ELECTRONIC BODY CONTROL MODULE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND PROVIDED THE CONTACT WITH CASE NUMBER: 8-4000764280. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 33,000. **TR CONSUMER STATED LOEHMAN BLASIUS WAS ABLE TO CALL ENGINEERS AT CHEVROLET CORPORATE FOR HELP SAID SNOW TIRES WERE CAUSING THE ISSUE AND GAVE THE CAR BACK. SWAPPED SNOW TIRES FOR FACTORY AS ADVISED AND ISSUE WITH BRAKES WAS STILL HAPPENING. BECAUSE OF THE ISSUE I HAVE BEEN HAVING WITH THE BRAKES AND BECAUSE IT ONLY HAPPENS IN RAINY CONDITIONS. IT MAKES IT VERY DIFFICULT TO SCHEDULE ON APPOINTMENT WITH THE DEALERSHIP THAT I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE FROM WHEN I ALSO NEED A LOANER AND WORK THE HOURS THEY ARE OPEN. UPDATED 10/22/18*JB
