Discovered last nite after driving home from getting windows tinted in the rain(only time my car will ever see rain) that my trunk leaks like a bitch on both sides. It's running in from the top down. Anyone else had this trouble ?

I hope not!!!!

Yikes. Didnt you know the trunk doubled as a hot tub?

Take it to the dealer ASAP. You do not want water to build up in the trunk especially with the battery in there!

also if it stay damp too long it might start smelling.

I'm so glad they are building these cars in Oshawa and the QC has been so intense.

I suggest that all of the early VIN car owners look, smell and lift the carpet in your trunk and inspect for water damage to the cars that have been sitting for the last 60 days.

Hello...

Welcome to the First Model Year Buyers Club, is this your first time here?...

Please have a seat over there and we'll call your name when your car is ready...

Please let your dealer know about this ASAP so that GM can make changes on the line to prevent it from becoming a problem with all the cars. :(

I swore I would never buy another FMY car but damn this Camaro and its' mesmerizing styling and power...

fad1 · 05-12-2009, 11:58 AM

no need to panic, just see whats up at the dealer.

chrisgalles · 05-12-2009, 12:16 PM

Maybe it is a good thing I decided to wait to order...maybe most of the kinks will be worked out before mine is built...fingers crossed

Make sure it wasn't the wash after the tint job. Maybe the trunk was open, or some other thing overlooked. Just sayin.
