Since last November, distributors located in the states of California and Washington in the United States can not order new 2021 models of Chevrolet Camaro SS, ZL1 and ZL1 LE. The restrictions also apply to both coupe and convertible versions.
How could it be otherwise the problem is related to environmental pollution, but not by which it produced its engines, but its brake system. Specifically for the emissions caused by the copper brake pads equipped in various versions of the Camaro 2021.
Strict regulations
As published GM Authority, “Due to restrictions in California and Washington state related to copper brake pads, customers in those states will not be able to order a 2021 Camaro SS, ZL1 and 1LE for delivery after January 1, 2021 “, confirms General Manager, Chevrolet Cars and Crossover Communications to General Motors, Kevin M. Kelly, who adds “However, customers can buy these models if there are any stocks available at distributors in both states “.
This decision is temporary, given that GM is already working on a new brake system that complies with the strict environmental regulations that apply in these regions.
“Customers in the state of California and Washington will have available the models Camaro SS, ZL1 and 1LE with denomination 2022 when we introduce a new brake system that meets the requirements relating to copper”, Kelly added.
Although General Motors has not specified more, the problem is supposed to have to do with the new Brembo brakes offered in the models mentioned. They are high-performance systems that have encountered an unforeseen problem, because yes, the brakes, due to friction also cause pollutant emissions.
