5/5 Overall
NHTSA 5-Star Safety Rating
Powertrain complaints dominate the 2019 Camaro's owner reports, with transmission issues making up the bulk of them. Owners frequently describe shuddering and vibrations during gear changes, particularly when the transmission moves into higher gears, along with rough or delayed engagement. Several owners report bringing the car to dealers early on and being told nothing was wrong, only to have the shuddering worsen over time. Steering complaints are the second most-reported area, though at lower volume. A smaller number of engine-related reports mention components like the thermostat failing well below expected mileage thresholds. One isolated report involves a mileage discrepancy discovered at registration, which falls outside the typical mechanical complaint pattern. The transmission shudder under acceleration and during upshifts is the clearest recurring theme across this model year's complaint set.
