1987 Chevy Camaro Problems
Manufacturing defects in 1987 Chevrolet Camaros have led to recalls due to problems with the vehicles fuel system, exterior lighting and seat belts. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), these safety issues could cause personal injury or property damage.
Fuel System
In 2006, NHTSA announced a recall of certain 1984-1992 model year Camaros to replace defective Fram fuel filters with part number G3727. A malfunction in the seals of some of these filters may cause a fuel leak, which could lead to a fire.
Exterior Lighting
In 2006, NHTSA announced a recall of certain model year 1985-2002 Camaros with combination replacement lamps built by Pro-A Motors due to a defect that could lead to a crash. The amber lectors on these headlights, turn signals and corner lamps are too dim to comply with federal safety standards.
Seat Belts
In 2009, General Motors recalled some of its 1984-1990 Camaros to repair a seatbelt-buckle defect that could fail to protect vehicle occupants in the event of an accident. The plastic portions of these buckles may melt in the sun, causing them not to latch.
