Here are the deets on the 2014 Chevrolet Camaro: 3 recalls, 188 owner complaints and up to 22 mpg combined.
Recalls
3 vehicle recalls from the manufacturer, plus 1 equipment/tire recall that can apply. Repairs are free. Check your VIN to see if one is still open on your car.
Equipment Vehicle recall #13V463000 · 2013 · 18,941 vehicles
What's wrong: In the affected vehicles, the required air bag warning label on the sun visor May peel off. Thus, these vehicles fail to comply to Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard no. 208 "occupant crash protection."
Why it matters: If the air bag warning label detaches from the visor, the driver and front seat passenger May not be warned of the risks of air bag deployment, increasing the risk of injury in the event of a crash.
The fix: Gm will notify owners, and instruct owners how to inspect the visor sticker. As necessary, dealers will replace the sun visor, free of charge. The recall began on October 28, 2013.
Electrical Vehicle recall #14V346000 · 2014 · 464,712 vehicles
What's wrong: In the affected vehicles, the driver May accidentally hit the ignition key with their knee, unintentionally knocking the key out of the run position, turning off the engine.
Why it matters: If the key is not in the run position, the air bags May not deploy if the vehicle is involved in a crash, increasing the risk of injury. Additionally, a key knocked out of the run position could cause loss of engine power, power steering, and power braking, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
The fix: Gm will notify owners, and dealers will remove the key blade from the original flip key/rke transmitter assemblies, and provide two new keys and two key rings per key. The recall began August 25, 2014.
Steering Vehicle recall #14V409000 · 2014 · 106 vehicles
What's wrong: Improperly torqued fasteners May cause the steering intermediate shaft and the steering gear and/or the lower control arm and the lower ball joint to separate.
Why it matters: If any of the components separate, the vehicle May have a loss of steering, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix: Gm began to notify owners on June 27, 2014, and dealers will inspect the fasteners for correct torque, correcting them as necessary, free of charge.
1 aftermarket equipment / tire recall replacement parts sold to fit this car, not the car itself
Electrical Equipment recall #19E064000 · 2019 · 10,740 vehicles
What's wrong: Gm dealers May have inadvertently sold these assemblies as replacement keys despite them having been recalled under NHTSA recall number 14v-346 (gm number 14294) when they were the original equipment assemblies. The driver May accidentally bump the ignition key with their knee, moving the ignition out of the run position and turning off the engine.
Why it matters: Once the engine is off, the vehicle can lose power steering and power braking, increasing the risk of a crash. The air bags May not deploy in a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
The fix: Gm will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and, as necessary, replace the key with the flat blade design, free of charge. Interim notices informing owners of the safety risk were mailed November 6, 2019. Owners received a second notice and the recall began February 4, 2020.
