In owners' own words

When driving the 2015 Camaro the mylink/radio shuts down and will not play and the headlights and inside lighting goes dim and dashboard goes dark until the car is cut off and restarted. During this the the backup camera also does not work. This happens every time the car is driven. We are scared to drive the car on long trips. The mileage is 17,553. Unless this is taken care of this will be our last gm purchase. Electrical system · reported at 17,553 miles

2015 2Ls chevy Camaro- radio system flickers on and off, while the car is parked or in motion. When it shuts off the speakers pop, and no audio (even door chimes and turn signals) can be heard at all. This is a known issue (google it) and chevy refuses to issue a recall. This is a safety hazard and is very distracting when driving. I'm some cases, the entire climate control does not work either! Electrical system · reported at 50,000 miles

It doesn't matter whether the car is moving or not moving the radio will not come on the hvac system lights flash and the blinkers do not make a sound but they just last two. Also the key gets stuck in the ignition turned off and trying to pull out the key another problem is the passenger seat will not move forward or backwards something is happened to the the track system of the letter Electrical system · reported at 56,000 miles
