TO ALL: 2016 Camaro V6 Owners With The GM 8-Speed 8L45 M5N Hydra-Matic Automatic Transmission. 9-16-2016

There is a Factory Service Update Bulletin # 33110 , that came out this week on an upcoming Recall on this "Turbine Shaft" part inside of these Transmissions, as this Shaft has been determined to cause "8 Speed Transmission Turbine Shaft Failure", because of Structural Stress Cracks found in them from the factory!

The procedure for GM Technicians to Replace the "Turbine Shaft" can take between 3 to 4 days to complete the job, as it involves the Removal of the Transmission and the "Turbine Shaft" will be replaced, then the transmission will be reinstalled back into the car.

At this time, there is "No Replacement Turbine Shaft" available, as GM has commisioned a company to make the Updated Replacement Part, as the factory Turbine Shafts are Defective in all of these 8L45 8-Speed Automatic Transmissions in our 2016 V6 Camaro's.

It is my understanding that GM will Mail Notices to all Camaro V6 8L45 Transmission Owners when the Replacement Part becomes available!
