General Motors has issued a recall for certain examples of the Chevy Camaro sports coupe due to an issue related to the axle shaft retaining ring.
The problem: in affected Chevy Camaro examples, the left or right axle shaft may be missing a retaining ring due to an error made during the vehicle’s production process.
The hazards: if a vehicle is missing the left or right axle shaft retaining ring, the axle shaft may separate from the vehicle while driving. A separated axle could lead to a sudden loss in drive power, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix: GM will notify owners, and dealers will replace the left or right axle shaft as necessary. These repairs will be performed at no cost to the vehicle owner.
Affected components: left or right axle shaft retaining ring.
Affected vehicles:
- 2021 Chevy Camaro
Number of affected vehicles: only eight Chevy Camaro vehicles in total are believed to be affected by this issue. All of these vehicles are located in the United States.
Owners should: GM will notify owners of affected vehicles and instruct them to make an appointment with their dealer. If owners are unsure whether or not their vehicle is affected, they can visit my.gm.com/

wow…. thank god mine didnt fall into the 2021 year. My Camaro has been treating me great 😀 No issues so far….. fingers crossed
Based on current lack of availability of Camaros, I’d guess that those 8 cars is the entire production run to date.

I just got a call from my dealer, my car is due to be shipped today, arriving at the dealer saturday. So apparently, even with chip shortages, they are still making cars.
The shutdown for camaro started this week so any currently in production and all the wiring is complete should be able to be completed.
That’s a Recall on all the Houston Camaro cop cars bought for 2021 Tx Y2K
If the retaining ring is missing, driving it would be risky. Have it hauled to the dealer.
