Original — Remedy
GM began to notify owners on June 27, 2014, and dealers will inspect the fasteners for correct torque, correcting them as necessary, free of charge. Owners may contact GM customer service at 1-800-521-7300 (Buick), 1-800-458-8006 (Cadillac) or 1-800-222-1020 (Chevrolet). GM's number for this recall is 14378.
Your replacement ignition key for your Camaro might have a problem. It's possible that the key's design could cause the engine to shut off unexpectedly if you brush it with your knee.
Risk if Unfixed
If the engine turns off while driving, your Camaro's power steering and brakes will fail, making it harder to control the vehicle. This could increase the risk of a crash, and your airbags might not deploy to help protect you.
Free Fix
Your Chevrolet dealer will inspect and replace the ignition key with a redesigned one that's less prone to accidental shut-off, free of charge. You should schedule the repair as soon as possible.

Original — What Happened
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.
Original — Risk if Unfixed
Once the engine is off, the vehicle can lose power steering and power braking, increasing the risk of a crash. The air bags may not deploy in a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
Original — Remedy
GM will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and, as necessary, replace the key with the flat blade design, free of charge. Interim notices informing owners of the safety risk were mailed November 6, 2019. Owners received a second notice and the recall began February 4, 2020. Owners may contact Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020. GM's number for this recall is N192223230.
The ignition switch in your 2010-2014 Camaro is the part that starts your engine when you turn the key. In some cases, the key can accidentally knock out of the 'run' position if your knee hits it, turning off the engine.
Risk if Unfixed
If the key is knocked out of the run position, your airbags might not work in a crash, putting you at risk of injury. Plus, you could lose power steering, power brakes, and engine power, making it harder to control your vehicle and increasing the risk of a crash.
Free Fix
Your Chevrolet dealer will replace the original key with a new one that's designed to be safer, and provide you with two new keys and two key rings — all at no cost to you. You should schedule the repair as soon as possible and, until then, adjust your seat and steering column to avoid hitting the key.

Original — Remedy
GM will notify owners, and dealers will remove the key blade from the original flip key/RKE transmitter assemblies, and provide two new keys and two key rings per key.

Note: Until the recall has been performed, it is very important that drivers adjust their seat and steering column to allow clearance between their knee and the ignition key.
The air bag warning label on your sun visor helps protect you in case of a crash. In some 2013-2014 Camaro Coupes, this label might peel off, making it hard to see the warning.
Risk if Unfixed
If the label is gone, you might not be warned about the dangers of air bag deployment. This could lead to serious injury in the event of a crash.
