2011 CHEVROLET CAMARO Electrical System Problems

Car has new engine and transmission everything is new and well maintained, p2138 pops up throttle quits working causing me to almost wreck into another vehicle, I was stuck in traffic 1 hour waiting for a tow truck, 7 shops have worked on the issue and replaced every part including all the technical service bulletins provided here on the site and car is still doing the same thing. The electric system in the car is prone to these issue as is the ecm . Now it's either sell the car to someone with it being unsafe or spend another couple grand hoping to get it repaired. Chevys drive by wire system is a known issue with these cars yet no recall, why, why not recall and repair the issue or is our safety not a issue

WHILE DRIVING ON A RURAL ROAD, APPROX. 55 MPH, TWICE MY DRIVER SIDE ELECTRIC SEAT STARTED TO MOVE FORWARD AND UP BY ITSELF. IT WILL NOW ONLY MOVE UP AND FORWARD NOT BACKWARD. THE SEAT IS NOW IN A POSITION WHILE DRIVING TO HIGH TO SEE SAFELY AND FORWARD WHERE MY FOOT IS NOW PUSHING ON THE GAS CAUSING UNSAFE CONDITIONS. SINCE THAT DAY (1/18/2021) GOOGLING THE INTERNET I SEE A SAFETY RECALL BACK IN 2014 FOR THIS SAME SAFETY ISSUE AND CAN HAPPEN ALL BY ITSELF. CAN I TAKE IT IN TO BE FIXED WITHOUT COST TO ME ?

ON AUGUST 18TH 2020. I WAS INTERESTED IN BUYING THIS 2011 CAMARO FROM TS AUTO SALES IN ORLANDO FLORIDA. THE SALESMAN NAME IS [XXX]. I ASKED HIM IF THERE WAS ANY EXTENSIVE DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE? HE SAID THE DRIVER SIDE WAS HIT AND IT WAS REPLACED. I ASKED HIM IF THERE WAS ANYTHING ELSE? HE SAID NO. AFTER I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. I LATER FOUND OUT, THAT HE WAS NOT BEING TRUTHFUL WITH ME. I LOOKED THE VEHICLE UP, AND FOUND THAT THE AIR BAGS HAD BEEN DEPLOYED. WHICH IS A MAJOR SAFETY VIOLATION. I ALSO ASKED HIM WHY THE BATTERY WAS BEING DRAINED. HE SAID IT JUST NEED TO BE CHARGED. I TOOK THE CAR TO A STEVE'S AUTO ELECTRIC IN CLERMONT FLORIDA. THE TECHNICIAN TOLD ME THAT THE AIR BAGS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. AT THE COST OF $3,500. THIS IS A REBUILD ABLE TITLE. YOU CAN...

AS THE CONSUMER I WAS STUCK BETWEEN THE MANUFACTURER OF THE VEHICLE AND THE VEHICLE DEALERSHIP. AUGUST 2014, I RECEIVED A RECALL LETTER ON MY 2011 CHEVROLET CAMARO'S IGNITION KEY, RECALL NUMBER 14294. AT THAT TIME, I TELEPHONED GARBER AUTOMALL TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT TO GET THE RECALL COMPLETED.

BROUGHT MY CAMARO TO DEALERSHIP FOR RECALL 14294, IGNITION KEY PROBLEM. THE SOLUTION OF REMOVING THE BLADE FROM THE "FLIP" KEY AND ADDING A SEPARATE KEY CREATES A WORSE PROBLEM. ONE, IT WEIGHS MORE DEFEATING THE RECALL CONCERN AND TWO HANGS LOWER INCREASING THE PROBABILITY OF HITTING YOUR KNEE, AGAIN DEFEATING THE REASON FOR THE RECALL AND ADDING A POTENTIAL MEDICAL CONCERN. AND WE WOULD BE RECEIVING AN INFERIOR DESIGN TO WHAT I BOUGHT. I TOLD THEM TO CHANGE IT BACK BECAUSE OF THE ABOVE FLAWS. SINCE THEY STILL SELL THE CARS WITH THE "FLIP" KEY, WHY CANT THEY JUST REPLACE THE KEYS COMPLETE AND NOT JUST BAND AID THE PROBLEM. I BROKE THE BLADE OF THE "FLIP" KEY ON MY 2011 EQUINOX AND COULDN'T JUST REPLACE THE BLADE....A NEW KEY HAD TO BE ORDERED AND BOTH KEYS REPROGRAMMED AT THE COST OF $140. BOTTOM LINE IS THEY SHOULD REPLACE...
