Oh yeah ,car has roughly 4500 miles on it.

We are sorry to hear of this! Please let us know how the service goes when it is repaired.

Going to try and sell the car privately, hopefully the nightmare will be over soon.
The sad part about it was it leaked oil all summer so i didn't want to take it out of town, basically i never really got a chance to use it. So far out of the last 20 days it's been at the dealer 16. Oh well you know how the saying goes, It was gay while it lasted. Or something like that.

Picked up the car, nothing broke on the way home , great. Just one little problem someone hyper extended the fuel door and put a dent in the quarter panel. Oh well something is bound to get dented after 16 hrs of service.

um.. did you buy this vehicle used?

I ask because your profile says you have a 2010, and you posted in June 2012 as only have 2,000 miles.

nm1458 · 09-17-2012, 06:33 PM

The car was brand new feb 1 2012, no kidding.

how many miles @ delivery?

nm1458 · 09-17-2012, 07:15 PM

About 500 kilometers so, somewhere around 260 miles.

nm1458 · 09-17-2012, 07:16 PM

I knew of another brand new 2010 2ss l99 that just sold a month ago.

Mr. iNCREDIBLE · 09-17-2012, 07:31 PM

problems can be a pisser for sure.

ask me sometime about my Chrysler 300c.. I loved the car, and modded the hell out of it, but it had some serious factory issues, electronic gremlins and some other stuff.

over $22K in warranty work performed on it in 6 years of ownership ($22k of Chrysler's money not mine)..

For me Lemon Law wasn't an option, and I was very upside down on it most of the time I owned it because of Chrysler's financial problems and the employee pricing crap they did for 2 years (that dropped the bottom out of resale).

but it was all warranty work, as long as it wasn't out of pocket for me I kept it, soon as it became out of pocket it was traded.

i think the leaks are the biggest problem the camaro faces. honestly though its not a huge deal to fix a leak under warranty. but its funny, i bet a lot of camaro owners are leaking and don't know it. my shop told me it was leaking after i told them to check. lol.

"American cars leak". i heard this on a BMW forum. funny how true it is.

nm1458 · 09-20-2012, 11:14 AM

So paintless dent removal was a totall sucess. This morning I noticed a gurgling sound under dash after hvac fan replacement, looks like Im headed back to the dealer for the 7 th time this summer, sweet.

Well I just wanted to take this time to thank the excellent people at chevrolet canada customer care center. I was carefull how i approached the customer service team, and in return they blew me away by really taking care of me. Never have I dealt with a company that seemed to genuinely care about a customer so much. Just wanted to let you guys and girls know that if you are, kind , respectfull, and a little open minded that these people will trully do everything they can to take care of you.
