General Motors (GM) has recalled 511,528 units of the Chevrolet Camaro vehicles in North America over a defect with the key ignition and driver's seating position.
According to the company, the driver's knee may potentially bump the key FOB and inadvertently move the key out of run position resulting in reduction or loss of power.
The issue, which would affect drivers sitting close to the steering column, was discovered by the company during internal testing and follows the earlier ignition switch recall in 2014.
GM Global Safety vice president Jeff Boyer said, "Discovering and acting on this issue quickly is an example of the new norm for product safety at GM."
GM noted that it is aware of three crashes that resulted in four minor injuries attributed to the vehicle condition.
The recall affects 464,712 Camaros from 2010-2014 model years in the US as well as similar vehicles exported to Canada and Mexico, increasing the total recalled units to 511,528.
Under the recall, the company will change Camaro's key to a standard design from one in which the key is concealed in the FOB and is opened by pushing a button.
