I WAS HEADING NORTH ON THE HIGHWAY AND I CHANGED LANES FROM THE LEFT TO THE RIGHT LANE. ONCE I CHANGED LANES MY CAR JERKED VICIOUSLY BACK TO THE LEFT I CORRECTED THE PROBLEM AND WENT BACK TO THE RIGHT, BUT THE CAR RAN OFF THE ROAD AND LOST THE REAR PASSENGER WHEEL AND TIRE. THE TIRE WAS STILL INTACT WITH THE HUB AND AXLE (LUG NUTS WERE STILL CONNECTED ALL OF THEM WERE TIGHT.) THIS SHOULDN'T HAVE HAPPENED. I BELIEVE I WRECKED BECAUSE MY REAR AXLE BROKE. AND FURTHER MORE MY AIR BAGS MUST HAVE BEEN DEFECTIVE BECAUSE THEY DID NOT DEPLOY ON IMPACT. THEY HAD DEPLOYED WHEN THE TOW TRUCKS BROUGHT THE CAR OUT OF THE HOLE. *NM
I HAVE HAD MY CAMARO FOR AWHILE NOW AND I HAVE NOTICED THAT THE WINDOWS HAVE BEGUN TO SCRATCH JUST BY ROLLING THEM UP AND DOWN. AND ALSO THE WINDOW RATTLES WHEN THE DOOR IS SHUT. I HAVE TALKED TO PEOPLE ABOUT IT AND FOUND OUT IT IS A COMMON THINGS IN CAMAROS. NOW I DON'T THINK I SHOULD HAVE TO PAY TO REPAIR IT BECAUSE THIS IS A MANUFACTURER'S MISTAKE. *AK
A PAIR OR POWER WIRES SHORTED OUT BY TOUCHING THE SUPPORT WIRES UNDER MY DRIVERS SIDE SEAT CAUSEING THE WIRES TO HEAT UP MELTING AND SCORCHING THE FOAM UNDER THE SEAT, CAUSING A SMALL FIRE. *AK
WHILE DRIVING AT 45 MPH, THE CONSUMER WAS INVOLVED IN A FRONT COLLISION AND NONE OF THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. THE DEALER WAS NOTIFIED. *AK THE ACCIDENT OCCURRED DURING A RAINSTORM. THE VEHICLE HYDROPLANED, SPUN AROUND, AND STRUCK THE MEDIAN. THE ANTI LOCK BRAKES FAILED TO HELP GAIN CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. *SCC *JB
MY DAUGHTER PUSHED IN THE CIGARETTE LIGHTER THAT IS WHEN SHE SAW A SPARK AND A TRAIL OF FIRE GOING TO TOP OF STEREO AND OVER TO STEERING AREA. SHE PARKED CAR AND CALLED THE FIRE DEPT. THE ONLY THING LEFT OF MY CAR IS BACK TIRES AND TAILLIGHTS. I HAVE HAD THE ANTI LOCK BRAKE LIGHT STAYING ON. WIPERS WORK ONLY WHEN AND IF THEY FEEL LIKE IT. THEY DON'T COVER GLASS ON DRIVER SIDE WINDOW. NOT BEING ABLE TO GO UP OR DOWN IF YOU DIDN'T WAIT AN HOUR IN BETWEEN. THIS CAR HAS ONLY 70000 MILES ALL FACTORY NOTHING ADDED ON. *PH
VEHICLE WAS TRAVELING ABOUT 45 MPH, HYDROPLANED, SPUN OUT OF CONTROL, ABS SYSTEM FAILED TO STABILIZE VEHICLE. CAR STRUCK GUARDRAIL, NO DRIVER OR PASSENGER AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT. VEHILCE IS TOTAL LOSS.*AK
MY 16-YEAR OLD SON WAS INVOLVED IN A FENDER-BENDER. BOTH THE DRIVERS AND PASSENGER AIR BAGS DEPLOYED, DESTROYING THE DASH AND WINDSHIELD OF HIS 1995 CHEVY CAMARO. THERE WAS NO DAMAGE TO THE FRONT OF HIS CAR FROM THE CRASH, EXCEPT FOR A BROKEN FOG LIGHT, AS HE WAS TRAVELING AT APPROX 5-8 MPH. THE AIR BAG RIPPED THE DASH FROM THE FIREWALL, BURNED HIS ARM AND SCRATHCED HIS FACE AND ARMS. I CANNOT BELIEVE THAT IN THIS LOW SPEED THIS MUCH DAMAGE SHOULD HAVE RESULTED FROM THIS TYPE OF INCIDENT. WHEN I SPOKE TO PRODUCT ALLEGATIONS GROUP WITH GM, THEY AGREED WITH ME THAT THIS TYPE OF AIR BAG WAS DESIGNED FOR"MODERATE-TO-SEVERE CRASHES", NOT A LOW-SPEED INCIDENT. BUT UPON LOOKING AT PICTURES SUPPLIED BY THE LOCAL CHEVY DEALER, GM IS NOW TELLING ME THAT THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED BASED ON THE SOUND WAVES COMING FROM THE STEREO SYSTEM. WHAT A LOAD OF BUNK! IF THAT IS THE CASE, AIR-BAGS SHOULD BE GOING OFF ALL OVER THE PLACE. AND IF THAT WERE TRUE, ISN'T THAT ALSO A DESIGN FLAW? PLEASE CONTACT ME AS SOON AS POSSIBLE....I BELIEVE THAT GM SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR REPLACING MY SON'S DESTROYED DASH AND WINDSHIELD, BASED ON THE FACT THAT THE AIR-BAGS WERE DEFECTIVE AND SHOULD NOT HAVE DEPLOYED UNDER THESE CIRCUMSTANCES. THANK YOU. *AK
WHILE TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY THE CRUISE CONTROL GOT STUCK. *TT
WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE 10 MPH THE CONSUMERS VEHICLE WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT AND BOTH FRONTAL AIR BAGS DEPLOYED AT THE SAME TIME. THEY BROKE THE WINDSHIELD AND BUSTED THE DASH BOARD. *NLM. *AK
