2013 Chevrolet Camaro Electrical System

Radio/HVAC/Audible Chimes (available for inspection). My and others safety are at risk every day when driving this car. First the radio does not work at all the HVAC controls are tied into the radio and they work intermittent (windows fog) the whole center dash shuts off and on around every 3 seconds. It is very distracting at night flashing from when I start it until I shut it off and I have a one hour commute. I no longer have chimes like keys left in ignition, lights on, and hazard lights are also effected. Everything worked fine prior to radio failure. Has not been inspected by dealer. Ran off roadway into ditch lights flashing startled me and I jerked the wheel to the left with minor damage.

The radio, HVAC control panel went blank. The radio, fan, blinker sound and HVAC indicator lights cycle on and off. Unless functionality is disconnected, you can’t drive without the radio going on and off, the speakers crackling, and the panel screen blank not allowing visibility of HVAC position. The problem has been reproduced by the dealer. And the internet reports the same issue from multiple owners with similar vehicle. The dealer and Chevrolet technical assistance center TAC have attempted to diagnose the problem without correcting the problem as of yet. Chevrolet has not taken responsibility for for correction or offered cost assistance. The condition first appeared as the radio going on and off uncontrollably, speakers crackling, and the panel going blank.
