How this compares
141 complaints is 1.8 times fewer than the median 2016 model on this site and about the median for a 2016 coupe. Among the 4 Camaro model years here it ranks 4th for complaints. Counts follow sales volume as much as reliability, so a truck that sells 700,000 a year draws more reports than a sedan that sells 200,000.
Complaints filed by year
24 complaints came in 2019. Owners file in waves when a problem gets press or an investigation, so a spike measures attention as much as failures.
