THANK GOD ITS NOT A LEMON! GAAHH! i would cry if it were. but then again.. i'd be happy to get a new camaro. LOL

I hope i didn't eff up the engine tho. -..-
Why would you keep driving it, (if only for a few miles) if you had an indication that it was overheating? Hope you didn't damage the engine by driving it. I would have immediately pulled to the breakdown lane or side of the road, shut it down and called Onstar. Free roadside assistance is part of the new car warranty. (You ended up calling Onstar anyways) A flatbed would have been sent to save you. No need to take the risk of causing damage to the vehicle by driving it when overheated. JMHO.

Like, are you kidding? Like, what makes you think your car is a lemon over one problem? Like, I don't understand your way a thinking. Like, if the hose keeps popping off and causing it to overheat then I would say you might have a lemon. Like, it sounds like, you like worry to much. Like, just drive it and like have fun.
