Buy a new short block or long block (depending on damage) and install it!

In the USA, when it fails, we rebuild it better and stronger!

Well, enjoy yourself with that.....this is a CAMARO GEN5 FORUM

Don't need a warranty when these cars were rated one of the most trouble free in consumer reviews. That was one of my deciding factors when I was contemplating buying one. Don't intend to stir up a conflict, that just seemed to be out of place here.

I think you are out of place here as the question was about warranty for any car, and as most of my post on here are to provide factual information. I could say something like take it to the SS forum, but I won’t.

For the record: I didn't pose a question. I made a statement that was factual as I knew it (I am not in the market for any Korean made vehicle...not meant as a jab ZMEnow, as you seem to truly like yours). I perhaps should have been more specific: I know of no 10 year warranty on performance cars.

It's all good. Can't we all just get a long now?

Again, my apologies....I've never been a troll or hijacked a thread.....before now, I guess

Brutale arancia · 08-22-2020, 08:15 AM

Was there any attempt at a diagnosis?

FasNuf · 08-22-2020, 08:44 AM

Wow, that piston is gone!

jsd · 08-22-2020, 11:26 AM

Declaration from buyer, which is a mechanic

The piston rod is broken off
This one destroyed the opposite piston and the piston destroyed the rest of the engine including the compressor

okjuvkam · 08-29-2020, 01:19 AM

Wow, that sucks. Where there any modifications performancewise done to this car ?
