2019 Chevrolet Camaro SS 2 DR RWD Safety Features

Here are the safety features that come as standard on the 2019 Chevrolet Camaro SS 2 DR RWD

Electronic Stability Control (ESC)

ESC is an advanced safety feature in vehicles designed to help drivers maintain control during challenging driving conditions. By continuously monitoring various factors such as steering angle, vehicle speed, and individual wheel speeds, ESC can detect and reduce the risk of skidding or loss of control. It achieves this by automatically applying brakes to specific wheels to stabilize the vehicle.

Standard
Forward Collision Warning (FCW)

Forward Collision Warning (FCW) is a safety feature in vehicles that helps prevent frontal collisions by alerting the driver of an imminent collision with a vehicle or obstacle ahead. Using sensors such as radar or cameras, FCW monitors the distance and speed of vehicles in front, and if it detects a potential collision, it provides visual and/or auditory warnings to prompt the driver to take evasive action.

Optional
Lane Departure Warning (LDW)

Lane Departure Warning (LDW) is a safety feature in vehicles that alerts drivers when their vehicle unintentionally drifts out of its lane without signaling. Utilizing cameras or sensors to monitor lane markings on the road, LDW detects when the vehicle crosses these lines and triggers visual, auditory, or haptic alerts to notify the driver of potential lane departure.

"2019 chevy camaro transmission is shuddering. in other words it feels like my car is running over rubber strips on the road between 40 mph to 80mph. i know there is several tsbs that gm has put out on this issue with the a8. went to lynn smith chevrolet on 07/06/2023 and was told since my car is out of warranty it would cost me 625 dollars to have the transmission flushed and have the new synthetic transmission fluid in it. they said that’s the first step gm wants service depts to do. i’m sorry but if gm knows this is a problem then there should be a recall on it. i know there are already class action lawsuits on this problem. i can’t afford to have my transmission drained 2 or three 3 times. it is causing safety risk when you accelerate and lose power on the interstate or it is sluddering as you pick up speed at a red light.thought the problem was my tires so had 2 new sets put on and realized it wasn’t the tires."
