bad week for my camaro

Well I thought my problems were over for the Camaro but not. Got my new radio cable installed on Tuesday. So no more radio issues. I picked up my Camaro my left plastic piece on my seat is broke no big deal. Wednesday arrived starting smelling antifreeze brewing thru the air vents and my car still has that constant gurgling noise out of the glove box. It gets better pass a cement truck on the highway while taking my dad to the hospital a stone hits my windshield and causes the biggest chip and crack no big deal have full coverage thru State Farm they are paying 100 percent. So then I go try to get my heater core issues fixed dealer won't help me out so I'm working with GM and I'm taking my car in Wednesday to go get a second opinion somewhere else. SOOO FRUSTRATING

On top of that my new cruze I purchased in December has a constant whining noise in the 1.4 turbo so she's sick and my back bumper which I just had repainted last month from the hit an run is bubbling up so she is going to have to get repainted

Sounds like a bad heater core, that is the AF you are smelling. They are usually up under the dash behind the glovebox. When it rains it pours, hopefully you'll come out from under that cloud soon.

I had the same problem two years ago. I love the excuses my dealer is throwing at me one told me there is not enough Camaros on the road and then I get told your antifreeze container is full

I thought I read sometime you need to take the windshield out to change a heater core on these. You might want to check into that before you need 2 windshields.

You better be careful at the tables.

I keep thinking of the 12+ heater hose change as a preventive measure.
I'm to poor to gamble going out to visit my old coworker and his wife. Just drink and play a penny slot here and there.
