Description of the problem | The car is less than 5 years old and has less than 25k mi on it, this is a well documented problem, such as nhtsa complaints, youtube videos and forums in which people have the same exact complaint, among multiple years and models of chevrolet camaro's. The radio needs to be replaced, the issue affects multiple things including safety. However at this point with all the complaints gm has not performed a recall and is stating that they will not cover this under a known manufacturer design flaw. The safety concerns are that the radio will flicker on and off, come on and off disabling the ability to control it, while making very loud crackling and popping sounds at excessive volume, flashes on and off making night driving a hazard. While this issue happens it also disables the navigation, the onstar, the heat/ac fan controls as well as volume controls. There are hundreds and hundreds, if not thousands of folks with this problem. And as such, i have also recorded the issue while it was happening and read a myriad of reviews, complaints and watched videos. I believe that gm and chevrolet need to be held accountable. My car is extremely well maintained and has very low mileage for its age. When the company knows about this problem and hears from consumers and yet does nothing about it, is ludicrous. I believe they should be performing a recall as this is a design flaw in which can cost up to at least 1000k to get repaired. |
