2014 Chevrolet Camaro 2 DR RWD Safety Features

Here are the safety features that come as standard on the 2014 Chevrolet Camaro 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.

No
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.

Complaint:
"about 80% of the time i stop, i put the car into 'park" and attempt to remove the key, it is stuck. the solenoid in the steering column will not release the key although it is in position 2. my wife just left the key stuck and it drained the battery, stranding her. i have not taken the car to the dealer but research online has shown that this is a widespread problem among camaros and other chevrolet vehicles between 2010-2015. users report the chevy is refusing to declare a recall and dealers are charging $700 to replace the gear shifter which houses the switch that activates the solenoid in the steering column."

"the key gets stuck in the accessory position rendering the car unable to be shut off, you have to keep shifting and putting it back into park while engaging the lever very hard several times to allow the button to release the key . doing research online, as it was getting progressively worse, i have found that many chevy owners experience this same problem. i found videos and threads that owners discovered it is the shifter assembly not the ignition. my car is currently at the dealership while they replace the assembly, confirming it is damaged. this will cost me about 1000 dollars to fix after tax. i have 8100 miles on my car, and it's in excellent condition. i can show the invoice when it is finished being repaired"

Recall:
"general motors llc (gm) is recalling certain replacement flip-key ignition transmitter assemblies sold as replacement equipment for 2010-2015 chevrolet camaro vehicles. 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."
Consequence:
