And the car just stopped.....

Took it out for an errand, pulled in the garage and turned it off. Went to restart immediately to pull in further and ‘dead’. Full power and 12+ volts on voltmeter. Nothing but a single click. Everything lights up and never dims.

Anyone else? 2500 miles, October delivery, May 2017 production date. Can’t be the battery.

Hate to tow it in......

make sure you didn't leave it in gear and confirm the brake pedal is depressed. A10 or M6?

at least it broke down at your house and not on the freeway.

That bites. Sounds like a flat bed ride is in your future. Hopefully it’s something simple.

There is a TSB for electrical gremlins. Something rubbing on metal wearing through the jacket.

Have you had the recall done. Here is a link.https://www.camaro6.com/forums/showt...ghlight=recall
May not be the problem but you never know.
I would start with pulling the negative on the battery, wait a half hour and try and start, If not it is a flat bed ride

Did you make sure the battery cables are tight? If they are loose, you could still get power but not enough to start it. If your jumping off the under hood jump points but the cables are loose at the battery it would still not start.

Cables are all tight. Recall notice looks interesting! I would go get a battery just in case but this is a gelcell and costs $200 which may not be the issue.
