2013 CHEVROLET CAMARO — Complaint #2050321
Open-data reference.
NHTSA Complaint about EQUIPMENT:APPLIANCE:AIR CONDITIONER filed December 23, 2024
NHTSA complaint #2050321 (ODI reference 11632135) concerns a 2013 CHEVROLET CAMARO and was filed on December 23, 2024. The owner reports the failure occurred on December 9, 2024. The vehicle had 169,000 miles on the odometer at the time of the incident. The report was geocoded to California based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as equipment:appliance:air conditioner, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.
The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. Because a VIN was supplied, this complaint is tied to a specific vehicle and not just a model-year cohort.
Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same CHEVROLET CAMARO cohort independently describe similar equipment:appliance:air conditioner failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data. Related filings for the same vehicle and component appear below, and the detail page for the full 2013 CHEVROLET CAMARO shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.
Complaint Description
The contact owns a 2013 Chevrolet Camaro. The contact stated that upon entering the vehicle and starting the engine, the heat would enter through the vents and failed to remain off. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer where the vehicle was diagnosed that the blend door was faulty causing the cabin of the vehicle to remain hot when the vehicle was driven. The vehicle was repaired but the failure persisted. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 169,000.
