Well now I have to add a few more things since my last post, today took him in for clutch pedal sticking to floor twice, and the rear end roaring noise from the posi -clutches sticking again back even louder than before, and for the entertainment system update because my ipod looses connectivity at times. They are telling me that they haven't heard of the whole clutch sticking to the floor thing and can't understand how that would even be possible? will check with GM to see if it isn't just my car doing this!!! I said I got at least 10 or more people on the Camaro 5 website that says it isn't just me!! They said "well we will see about that" still waiting to hear from them dropped it off at 8:am this morning. By the way I have 19,872 miles now.

I don't want this car, sad part is I want a Camero, I feel hurt that I don't have my TAYLOR with me, I replaced my X-husband for Taylor, good choice for me.

How in the hell do you misspell Camaro, with the correct spelling spread EVERY WHERE on this site, not to mention on your car?

Only 2 things so far.

Warranty: At 17,000 miles, the Gas Pedal Sensor went defective (as in, I lost my accelerator...at least it wasn't the brakes!). Our 2010 Camaros, like other newer cars, no longer have drive-by-wire throttles. There is now 2 sensors, a gas pedal sensor, and a throttle sensor. I was driving home one night and all of a sudden the CEL comes on, followed by the "Reduced Engine Power" notification. OnStar proceeded to diagnose the issue, and I had it towed to the dealer the following day.

Due to parts being backordered, it took 3 weeks for the car to be repaired, but the dealer took care of me by providing a free rental car, along with a free oil change and free car detailing.

Warranty: From Day 1, the manual seat adjustment for the passenger seat never worked. Had it repaired at the same time as the item above.

Can someone decipher this for me?

Had the same problem with the notchy/grinding tranny. The dealer admitted there was a problem and was about to replace/fix it but I told them I wanted to try one last thing before they cracked it open. At 1k miles I put Mobil 1 syn ATF in thinking it would help and it didn't so I figured no other fluid would be any different and lived with the problems. I just put amsoil's Torque Drive in it yesterday and every problem is gone. The rough engagement of my clutch is even gone, I couldn't believe it. Shifts like butter at any temp or RPM. Might help for you too.

Just picked my car up from having the trans replaced!

Hope to test it out soon when the weather here breaks! Let us know if the Amsoil works for you long term!

I have the same problem. Passenger seat heater only works half the time.

My Spoiler is unbolting. The entire left side is unbolted and the right side is still intac. Taking it to the Dealer first thing in the morning !!!

Transmission issues since 7000km. Still trying to get a dealership to fix it properly. Grinding in second. Notchy 1,2,3 rd, etc...

Good luck with that one, hopefully your dealership will help you out and not give you the same crap so many of us have heard "operating as designed".

The driver's seat belt in my 2010 has a problem. The button no longer works as it should and I need to flex pry the male part while pressing the button to get the seat belt to release. I'm going to take it in, my car just turned 1 year old today and that is the only problem to date with 9500 miles on it.
