Intermitantly the car will not shift into gear. You have to force the shift into 1st gear then into second, and I am talking really forcing shifter into gear.... at times the shifter will not shift into any gear... then other times it runs just perfectly... it is happening much more frequently and is dangerous. Below it is asking when did this happen - this a frequently occuring problem, and I see online may owners are having the same problems with dealers offering no help. Or paying for a repair and problem persists.
My car is from 2013, it has barely 68 thousand miles, it does not have much mileage which I only use to Transport myself to work and home, I have been and asking in the trailer about this problem that I have, I even took it to the trailer before the factory warranty will be terminated and they never wanted to help me, the car is manual transmission and has problems making the change from first speed to second speed, the second does not enter, it is only the problem when changing to the second speed in the rest I have no problem so if I need to check that problem because for the miles that the car has, it is not reasonable for me to have that problem and to be a not very cheap car I think that is very bad that
2013 Chevy Camaro ls 3.6L V6 sidi my problem started in February 2018 these are the following issues below: 1.my gear shift will come out of second gear while I am shifting during takeoff on my drive. This has been taking place since last July after the warranty ran out at around 28,000 miles. 2.come February 2nd this year my radio started continuously powers off and on and progressively gotten worse. Now at this point this is causing intermittent problems with my A/C, blinkers, seat belt alarm and lights. 3.now the radio constantly powering off and on even when I am finished driving and the car is parked and locked up with the factory alarm activated this has been happening for the last month and a half. (today is May 30, 2018). 4.now I am having issues with the battery maintaining enough cranking amps to start my car after sitting for two days. 5.lastly this is a serious issue with all the issues that are linked to this ongoing issue for multiple owners. I have been researching this issue for months now but as it keeps progressing it is becoming a safety issue for the owners of these vehicles. 6.final note if you have an epileptic driver and they might have to drive at night on a dark highway let's hope that the bright flashing display from the radio constantly turning off and on does not cause them to have a seizure. I know that it is very difficult for me to drive when my display is constantly going off and I am unable to make it stop so my eyes are having to constantly adjust to interior lights that make you feel as if you are at a disco.
I have been experiencing stalling and vehicle shut off on my 2013 Chevy Camaro I have taken it to the dealer 3 times now and they are unable to find the problem. It seems to happen during extreme heat temperatures during the summer months particularly. I have noticed that Nissan is having similar problems with their Nissan versa's and Nissan Sentra as it was aired on channel 13 action news. I have reached out to GM twice about this problem with no help although they are aware that many people are having the same problem with their vehicles. I need to start a class action suit. Can you help me?
2013 Chevrolet Camaro. Consumer writes in regards to vehicle clutch pedal bulletin issues. The consumer took the vehicle to the dealer to correct a clutch problem that had not existed the previous three years. The problem involved the clutch pedal not recovering during gear shifts. Instead, the pedal remained virtually stationary halfway through what should have been a total recovery. This prohibited the consumer from shifting gears.

On Feb,03.2015 my manual transmission went out while I was traveling and was rear ended as a result. Since the end of last year I have took my car to the dealership (jim ellis chev) complaining about smelling the clutch burning. The dealership would only reply saying that the transmission was just breaking in. Now that the transmission has went out the dealership is saying that I rode the clutch and wants me to pay $1700. The Camaro only has 23,000 miles and should not have went out.
Car would not shift into 1st gear. Car is 6 speed manual V-6 model. Repeatedly tried shifting into 1st gear at stoplight. Turned car off and started again. Tried shifting into 3rd and reverse, still would not shift into 1st. This caused a safety concern as cars started coming up to rear of car since light turned green while trying to shift the car into 1st. Had to start take-off in 2nd gear, stalling car. This has occurred many more times. After every incident and reporting of problem to dealer, dealer stated that was normal operation for the car. They inspected car 4 times and they always state "normal operation". car also intermittently grinds gears between 1st and second gear. Car is now at dealer awaiting inspection by factory representative. Car is a danger to myself, my family and the driving and passenger public. GM is well aware of this design flaw and there are hundreds of online posts describing the same exact issue that my car has. Please help!
A few months ago I took my 2013 Chevrolet Camaro 2ls to premier Chevrolet of buena park for an oil change. On the way home after driving the car for about 60 miles the check engine light came on for a few minutes then it went off. On may the 22nd on my way back home from work the check engine light came back on while sitting in traffic. Once traffic started moving I noticed that the car would not shift gears it was stuck on 2nd gear. Drove the car through the streets to the nearest dealership in la puente ca the whole way the car would not shift. I am waiting for a response from the dealer to see if the warranty is going to cover the issue.
I have a manual V8 model. Whenever stopped on an incline, the hill start assist (hsa) engages. The first time I gave it plenty of throttle and the brakes would not disengage and caused me to stall. The 2nd time, I had the RPM very high and again the brakes would not disengage. My car was jumping up and down under the strain. When it finally released the car, I was greeted with the smell of burning clutch. This cannot be normal. I don't think hitting 2000 RPM and dropping the clutch should be a normal method to overcome teh hsa system. I have auto hill braking on other vehicles that are nearly invisible to me and work flawlessly. I been driving manual cars for 20+ years and have no issues on hill starts. One of the biggest issues is there is no way to turn off the hsa feature. I think you need to force GM to recalibrate the system and/or allow the driver to turn the hsa feature off.
Starting day 1 after purchasing the vehicle in February 2013, the vehicles back up cam began to freeze when the vehicle is in reverse until I put the car back in park and turn the vehicle off and open the door to completely shut the vehicle down. A few months later on top of the radio and back up camera issues the vehicle has started to create a chain dragging sound when accelerating, it then begins to pulsate while my foot is on the acceleration peddle and the sound continues, the vehicles radio then freezes and resets itself starting in October of 2013. I have taken the car to certified Chevrolet service departments within multiple dealerships on multiple occasions to get the vehicle fixed. The dealer has stated and been unable to correct the problems completely and has ran out of alternative solutions to the fix the problems after putting over 800 additional road miles on my vehicle in order to try to diagnose the issue.
The contact owns a 2013 Chevrolet Camaro. The contact stated that the vehicle would not respond while attempting to accelerate from a stop. The clutch had to be depressed in order for the vehicle to engage into first gear and accelerate. The contact stated that there was also an abnormal noise from the vehicle when depressing the clutch. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 700.
The aisin AY6 transmission in my brand new 2013 Chevrolet Camaro ls is defective to the point of being a safety issue and GM will not recognize this as an issue even though it is a widespread problem that a lot of people are having. The transmission, from the day I bought the car, has never shifted smoothly without grinding or causing missed shifts. This can be, and is a safety hazard. The bottom line is that it is a poorly designed transmission that GM is putting in these cars and enough issues have been raised that they should be fixing the problems or replacing the transmissions in these cars. I want this issue resolved and any help you can offer is greatly appreciated.
I was accelerating from a stop light when I got to roughly 2000 rpms ( roughly 17 mph) pushed the clutch fully in and attempted to go into 2nd gear. However, the shifter physically would not allow this shifter to go into 2nd gear with up to, I would say 20lbs of force. As a result of trying to get the car to go into 2nd gear the driver behind me had to swerve out of his lane to avoid from re-ending me. I quickly had to move the gear shifter to 3rd gear to get my speed back. This has happened a total of over 3 times now! this is a brand new car and should not have these kinds of transmission issues. I have an apt. With the dealer 11/28/12.
