Common Chevrolet Camaro Problems And The California Lemon Law

If your Chevrolet Camaro has recurring problems that won’t go away, it may be considered a lemon.

A black car emits white smoke that obscures the car's rear half. Under the California Lemon Law, a lemon is a vehicle with recurring problems that will not go away, despite a reasonable number of repair attempts by authorized repair facilities. These problems must negatively impact the use, safety or value of your vehicle.

Many owners and lessees of Chevrolet Camaro vehicles report problems that do just that. Learn more about common problems that 2013–Present Chevrolet Camaro, owners and lessees report in their vehicles. If one of these problems repeatedly appear in your Chevrolet Camaro, you may need to talk to a lemon law attorney about your case.

Engine Problems

If your Check Engine Light flashes on the dashboard, get your Chevrolet Camaro inspected for possible engine problems.

Chevrolet Camaro owners and lessees submitted several engine-related complaints to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. According to these complaints, engine problems include unintended acceleration, engine surging, rough idling and excessive oil consumption.

If your Chevy Camaro makes an odd noise while starting up, loses power or dies while driving, you may have a faulty engine.

Electrical Problems
