I'm having the same issue with my 2011. I've been afraid to bring it in, because I know they'll say, "You burned the clutch, so you have to pay." My car just turned 8000 miles. Sometimes I can feel the clutch slowly popping back up, a half inch at a time. No fluid leaking that I've seen, though.

They are putting a new clutch in my car at 14k miles.

Free of charge, or do you have to pay part of it?

At first they wanted to get me for over 1500 but after fighting with GM over it they said they would replace everything.

That's good to know! I'm going to bring mine in soon. As the weather is getting cooler, it seems to be sticking and slipping more. How long was the car sitting before you got it all squared away?

Its been there since the 25th of September and haven't heard from the dealer since Tuesday morning saying they plan on ordering parts that day sometime. No idea when it will be back.

Wow! Did they give you a loaner? Any word on the parts being a new design?

They gave me a 2004 Chevy savanna 18 passenger van as a loaner. Only had 2 front seats and no other options. Was a pile. They then swapped it for a 04 alero with an interior that resembled a public restroom as a loaner. I gave it back and am driving my plow truck.

Hey, if you can hang onto the plow truck for a few months, you can make some cash!

Lol. I plow with it every winter. That's why I have it. I plow and salt. I can't wait for winter.

And no word about the new redesign parts. I don't really care. GM sucks. I won't be buying another. I paid 75 dollars for a car once and I had less problems with that car vs this camaro. And it was a Turbo dsm.

Oh, I read that wrong. I thought they loaned you a plow truck.

Oh. Haha. Nope its my truck. I have a 08 f350 twin Turbo diesel. I hate ford trucks but they are the most powerful and I got it for a amazing price.

Twin turbo? Nice!

Keep us posted on the progress. I may need to refrence you when I go in to fight with the dealer.
