The OP doesn't state anywhere in his post what has broke due to a defect in a part. I don't think it is hurting anyone that some are posting about accidents or an outside cause....

To me something that has broken it's due to normal use is not something that is due to outside causes such as abuse or accidents, it is due to defects in the materials or installation...

1030 miles and no problems whatsoever. Solid as one a them rock things. Love this car@@@@@!!!!!@@@@@

Biggest problem I have is when I get to where I want to go, I can't drive it anymore. Painful. :(

Michael_Js · 06-25-2010, 04:21 PM

Usual Spoiler & A/C TSBs done.
Clutch assembly replaced around 5800 miles due to clutch sticking close to floor & burning...

Loving the car!

GM, you did a great job with this Sexy Beast!

I'll let ya'll know what the dealer says when I pick it up.

TSB for the brakes. Other than that, it's been a flawless vehicle (as it should for a vehicle with 1500 miles on it).

thats funny

, no the rearend on the camaro exploded it is going to get towed to the dealership on monday. for having 19,500 miles I am a little disapointed. I have had the car 13 months very little has given me problems and for this to just happen. I was hoping the worst thing woul be the paint with all the chiping off the front and gills. but life goes on.

Excessive wind noise from driver side window. Dealer spent three hours with it and gave up. Said they hear it too but cannot fix. Said they would contact GM for fix and get back to me next week. THAT WAS LAST NOVEMBER AND I HAVEN'T HEARD A WORD FROM THEM YET.
