When is enough...enough?

Prior to my heater core deciding to puke all over the interior of my Camaro, I had my eye on a leftover new 2017 Garnet Red 2SS. Am I being naive to believe that these same issues will not follow me to that car as well? I really do like the the styling of these cars, but the reliability rating has to be taking a seious hit. Dropping 39K on another turd is not what I really want to do.

According camaro5.com "2014 Camaro Wins J.D. Power Vehicle Dependability Study"

Now, that being said parts do break. I wouldn't say all new camaros will break because your "turd" had problems. That is unfair generalization.

I called GM and told them I had taken the car to them 3 times while under warranty, and they found nothing.....now that the warranty is up their eyes are wide open. I don't think so......bottom line: They replaced the core FREE OF CHARGE!!!
Was this your 2016?
