It took me 2 days to figure out where the healight switch was and how to dim the dash lights. Whos the genius who decided to place it behind the spoke of the steering wheel?

Cup holders?!

Speed warning, never turn it on.

Call me dumb but concerning the gas door hook,

What exactly is the problem with unscrewing the fuel cap and gently letting it sit?

I mean paint scratches comes to mind but how rough do folks get?

The dome light, a cigarette lighter is brighter...

Over the years it will start to show, regardless of how gentle you are. Especially if the cap comes away with gas on it every now and then...

In my book OnStar is the most useless thing that GM put in the Camaro. I actually resent having in there and wish that there was some way to extricate it from the car while still leaving all other functionality like Bluetooth.

Just about every GM vehicle has the lighting controls either on the left stalk or on the lower left dash below the HVAC vent...pretty sure they aren't the only ones to do so either.

As far as useless, . . . . . the backseat is the only real hindered feature I've noticed, only good for kids and groceries.

What ever desk jockey at GM decided to use the 'Raw Antenna' for the useless 'Onstar' service. I debated having my body shop guy fill-in the hole and do-away with it but I was afraid my Girl would pick up a push at 135MPH:-). Thanks to Becky at Rodgers Chevrolet for the painted fin that should be STANDARD anyway. Yes-this is a vendor plug for a job WELL DONE! As far as the back seat-it was used once-when I installed the new painted antenna. Backseat/kids.......I better not go there.

Wait,I got two beautiful daughters.....maybe I was there-musta' been a 2nd Gen

The little light on the other side of the garage door openers. When you push the button, your finger is in the way, so you cant see the little light flashing anyways.

Most useless feature? That the door actually opens and lets me out of the car. I don't want to get out.

My vote goes to the four pack gauges... I just can't look at them without worrying that I'm not looking at where I'm driving
