CAMARO6 - View Single Post - Should I not buy a 2016 because of the problems?

I really enjoy this car and I would buy another one in a heartbeat.

I bought the car used last August. The car was locally owned. Most of the miles were put on driving between Las Vegas and Creech AFB. He only owned the car for 9 months. And I use the same dealership from which the car was originally purchased.

Based on the service records the dealership service advisor shared with me, the previous owner did not have any issues. However, I have had a few issues, all covered under warranty. The most significant was the rear window seal failing.

Almost every car model has some issues, some more than others. I had a GT500 several years ago and those cars certainly had issues, but, it was still a lot of fun. The Gen6 Camaro issues I read about on this forum would not prevent me from buying one.

Just like the GT500, my Camaro is not a daily driver. My car spends most of it's time in the garage hooked up to a Battery Tender.
