2011 Chevrolet Camaro Transmission and drivetrain Problems

“I was on my way to a car show and stopped at a stop sign. As I continued on at about 3/4 throttle o was shifting gears as I went from 2nd to 3rd gear I heard and felt a loud bang on bottom of car. I lost all acceleration and pulled over. I picked up the parts from the road. After having car towed to a friend's shop we were able to get it on a lift and see that the drive shaft had exploded at the mid point. …”

“2011 chevy Camaro less than 10,000k miles. Driving in traffic in maybe a 1% grade hill. Burning smell, the car wouldn't catch in 1st or 2nd gear. Lost all acceleration, had to cross multiple lanes on the highway. Sat in the car for over 2 hours for towing company. Then shop test drove next day, gears work, but bad burning smell continues. Shipped to Chevrolet. I did research online and see multiple people have this problem. This is a safety hazard and it placed my life into danger!”

I have read about several people with the same issues as me, especially with grinding second gear, and GM simply needs to fix the issue instead of saying that the transmission is operating as intended . …”

“Leaving work and the clutch stuck when shifting from 1st to 2nd gear then there was a terrible burning smell and it stalled in the middle of an intersection. Then while I was on the highway driving 65mph I down-shifted from 6th to 5th for upcoming slower traffic and the clutch stuck again and the car starts to stall. Both times I had pressed on the gas thinking the clutch would come out and it didn't so then there was terrible burning smell. I finally got the clutch unstuck both times and proceeded home. It didn't do it while driving to work but my car had been in the garage all night. …”
