My only issue so far has been the upholstery coming loose.

My concern are the that the windows might not keep going up and down when opening and closing the doors.

What problems have you guys encounter so far over and over?

Thanks

Upholstery looking great.....ck. Windows operating great........ck. All else working fine....ck. In all honesty its...............The darn careless peeps who like to park right on top of me and bang their damm hooptie doors into mine, time and time again.........this is my only concern currently.

Currently I have zero concerns with my car. It runs perfectly right now. I agree with Caspers though, I am concerned about people that park next to my car and can only hope that those people respect my property enough that they take some care to not damage my car.

How many miles do you have on your LT? I started noticing my avg MPG reach the 20 - 22 range on my LT after I passed 10,000 miles.

It does not matter how far away I park my car, there is always somebody parked right next to me when I come back.

Shopping-carts and other cars scare me.

I am getting between 11 and 13.5 in the city, on the freeway I get closer to 30 mpg according to my computer display.

Shopping carts....that one cost 100 bucks to get the dent removed

Same as most of the rest - rock chips, shopping carts,idiots parking too close and another deer running out in front of me.

Is anybody having battery problems? I admit that She's a garage queen but the last 2 times I went to "go for a ride".... dead battery. The first time, I hadn't ran the car in 10-15 days. Put my jump box on it (1000 amp) and tick....tick....tick.... I went out and bought a "batt tender" took a day and a half bit She fired right up. Our Grandpa passed away so I was out of state for 10 days. This time, it sucked the jump box in maybe 10 seconds and the tender would not even read chargable! I'm pissed, looking for advice. Oh, the service dept wanted me to have the car put on a flat bed and brought in..... NOT. Please Chevrolet, prove me wrong. 2011 2SS/RS Convert. 1100 miles in 18 months...... REALLY

I would definitely follow what the dealership has suggested in order to get the vehicle diagnosed properly. If you want me to check your VIN for any applicable warranties, please send it to me via PM.

I look forward to your reply.
