    Exterior Lighting

    The headlights on my camaro 2ss with hid headlights have gotten so dim that i am afraid to drive the car at night because the car doesn't light up the road at all. I only use it during the day. If i need to go somewhere at night i have to use my other vehicle. I went to the local chevrolet dealer and was told it was $125.00 to see what is going on. I've read all over the internet that everyone that has these cars…

    Electrical System · Exterior Lighting

    I have stock everything on my camaro. The radio, turn signals, and a/c glitch out all of the time. My radio will randomly glitch out sometimes with a loud noise coming from the speakers and sometimes quiet. I no longer have control of what station to listen to or the volume. Sometimes it happens every couple of minutes and other times every 10 seconds. If the rear defrost is on, the radio has no sound until i turn…

    The stereo and the a/c and the console lights turn on and off randomly while driving. Also, there is a loud popping sound coming from the speakers every time it cuts off. Many others have complained about this problem on the web.

    Exterior Lighting · Visibility/Wiper

    On 2010 model ss/rs with high intensity discharge headlamps (regular production option code t4f; i believe the code is), the visibility of the headlamps is severely diminished after the first couple of years due to heat from the required zenon bulb. Heat from the bulb, causes the plastic reflective dish at the rear of the light assembly to warp and crack the mirror reflective finish causing diminished throw…

    Exterior Lighting · Service Brakes

    The high mount led brake light is mounted on the rear windshield at an angle that receives direct heat from the sun causing a slim crack on the brake led board. The crack will shift back and forth sometimes illuminating when braking but at times the slim crack on the led board will prevent the lamp from illuminating causing an immediate safety hazard to passengers of insufficient brake notification to traffic…

    Electrical System · Exterior Lighting · Unknown Or Other

    The factory radio turns off and on with blinking lights on the radio itself along with the a/c unit shutting down and back up. The turn signal also do not make any sound. Sometimes, if i turn-off the car and pull the key out and back in and crack everthing returns as normal. All the research i've done points to the radio. They just replace it with a aftermarket. They do not make my radio any more. Should be a recall…

    Electrical System · Electronic Stability Control · Exterior Lighting

    Radio shuts off randomly during driving city streets and at highway speeds. Blowers will sometimes shut off when the radio turns off. Dash lights also flicker 5-10 times when radio shuts off and after turning the car off. When pulling the key from the ignition, speakers pop loudly. Extremely distracting and dangerous. No issue with battery or alternator. Gm says they don't know about the issue, however there are…
