Noise while driving only

Good afternoon,

Let me give you some back story because I know I will get a Chevy rep here but I have already contacted chevy customer support.

2 weeks ago I took my 2012 camaro to the dealer for an oil change. Ever since then My car makes a noise, a noise that will only trigger once I have travelled at a constant speed. I mainly drive highway so the issue starts showing up between 40 - 60 without braking. When I brake the noise temporarily goes away and immediately begins

last weekend I took my car to the dealer to address the issue and I did bring the video attached with me for them to hear. From the start with the guy in service he was already dismissive of me providing the video evidence. I explained to him about the consistent driving however I KNEW that when they test drove it that they did on a main road which they constantly were braking and could not trigger the issue like on the highway.

When I was taken to the mechanic he tried explaining without being able to trigger the noise he cant diagnose (I understand) however I explained they couldnt trigger without going on the highway at least so I offered to have him come with me real quick on the highway and they told me " We are too busy ".

Needless to say I dont consider that Customer service and have already called chevy customer support and they got me an appointment for Monday to have their manager ride with me to trigger it.

I have the audio attached in hopes someone else hears this and has dealt with it to at least give me clue as to what it is.

I appreciate anyone who has the time to read this and respond.

Thank you

P.S my dealer is Grand Prize Chevy in Miami, I will update this when my issue gets addressed but for now its

Vileone,

Following up today

5/10

Took car in Wed., drove with the dealers service manager. I was able to reproduce the sound and he advised to leave behind so I did. I get a call Friday saying his mechanic was unable to reproduce even though he himself heard it so this dealership has let me down yet again. I needed my car back for work so this week so ATM im out of luck.

I am leaving my car in again next friday since I will be out of town for a while week for them to figure it out. If not I am going to weigh my options into even a breach of contract with this dealership because I fear if it isnt addressed and the car eventually gets a bigger issue then I will just end up more frustrated later on.

Thanks for the update,

I can absolutely understand that a concern that cannot be duplicated at the opportune time would be beyond frustrating. Would you like to try a second dealer? If not, we'll document this and do everything we can on our end to help if this should become frequently occurring, or otherwise escalates.
