You look at the % of cars breaking and it's extremely small.
The problems always get blown out of proportion in most cases. Are things perfect? No, but let's not get carrried away. The problems are real, but not by any means out of control.

Can you give us the VIN to see if there is a pattern, Thanks.

Move the factory from Mexico back to USA.

You buy cheap... you get cheap (supplier comment not car buyer). I am sure the folks at the US tranny plants would love to have the business.

Hope these problems don't get worse when the M6ers start throwing the drag radials on and going to the track.

[hot ss]

at least the half shafts snap before the tranny takes a dump.....most of the time.

[camaro5]

There was an axle plant in NY that wanted this business. It's closed now.

The vendor chose to source the Camaro's axles from Mexico;

Tremec is in Mexico as well.

this was with a bone stock car with 3k miles wtf do you think is gonna happen with slicks and more power, its gonna break shit left and right at this rate. i am not pleased..



although i will say On-Star was The best with there service, i called them and literally 35 minutes later there was a wrecker there to tow my car to the nearest dealership, i didn't have to pay a penny, i guess on-star already had an acct set up with them or something, needless to say though i was impressed with that.

whats your vin #?

Same thing happened to my car tonight, 3500-4k drop clutch and thud car stayed running and it actually said it was doing like 20mph even though it was still like something was spinning inside , onstar and roadside was also great 40 minutes later tow truck came and took to dealership.. im really disapointed in the car at this point for doing this, i mean i dont think its driver error u should be able to drop the clutch at decent rpms and have no issues but spinning tires
